We had a lovely dinner at Monte do Mar this evening. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and the restaurant is beautiful, with a big terrace. We both had the set menu, which was very good value and the food was great. The portions were generous and we both enjoyed everything. We will be returning again soon!

Lovely food, place, atmosphere and staff! Really pleased to have found this place in Carvoeiro! We'll be back there for sure!
Such low effort made by the staff and sadly the food made us both ill. To be fair, it was the first night open after local lockdown and our friend had thought they had arranged a special tapas meal. Sadly not available and the fish curry we had contained oddly cubic pieces of fish in a runny overly salty sauce. The soup served to our guests was luke-warm, one sent it back and was told that the microwaves were on different settings! With such few guests, you would have thought that the owner might have made an appearance to welcome customers back etc. The chocolate cake they served us for pudding was still frozen in the middle. I will certainly not eat there again.
We have eaten here several times and will continue to return. Such a warm welcome by the owners. Friendly and excellent service with terrific food. Prices are affordable and well worth the money. Highly recommended.
Great restaurant!! We loved all the food, authentic clams and cataplana, really delicious! Great staff, friendly and fast. Just a couple of minutes outside the center of Carvoeiro, much beter than most restaurants there. They opened just 4 months ago, therefor not really busy yet. But an absolute recommendation! We will absolutely come again.
Rather confusingly this has a sign that says Monte mar bar restaurante tapas. In fact one side is a bar with a TV and the other side is a restaurant. No tapas in the restaurant but was fine for us. Was a very quiet night but with 2 children this was perfect for us anyway. They do need to change the sign so people know what they are coming inside for. Amongst the plethora of restaurants aimed at biggest margin possible from the tourist pound this really stood out as being as close to authentic Portuguese as possible. The prawn starter and pork loin with figs main were the highlights. As were the almond tart and fig tart. Also loved the fado soundtrack. The wine list is all Portuguese so just ask for a recommendation. The rose by the glass and house red were both great. Very good and for anyone who doesn't want tourist food I can't recommend it high enough.
Always good quality and friendly service. Fixed price lunch menu excellent value at 18
Fantastic restaurant!!! The food is excellent. We have eaten here three time isn the past three weeks and we keep going back because we are made to feel so welcome. We are looking forward to our next visit.
