Casa Palmeira

Family friendly restaurant typical Portuguese food

I ordered the starter prawns at 20 euros. They were tasteless and still had the brown " waste" in them. I have had them all over Carvoeiro and this was a complete letdown for our last meal. My husband ordered the whole chicken, it was really a capon. Very small but tasty. We were hoping to bring some home. The service was good but when I asked for a glass of wine, I was told they would figure it out as they are only listed by the bottle (6 euro for 750 ml). I had 2 small glasses, then charged 6 euros. I should have bought the bottle. Not sure why all the great reviews are here (we read them before we went) but we do not concur.

One weekend away with our company. We always eat here, the food is delicious. You have to have patience, but the food is worth while waiting. Together with a nice wine you would love this place. When you are in the neighborhood, pay them a visit.

It's worth the walk up the hill to this restaurant...the best meal so far and the staff, very attentive. We had the catch of the day, sea bass and although we had to wait a little while ( because it was being freshly cooked), it was worth it! Everything on the plate was hot. The fish came with head and tail on but don't let that put you off, it was delicious. They do meat too, which looked good also. Definitely recommend Palmeira

We ate there to times, two different dishes, and it was excellent! Fish was really fresh! Owner was very kind, and helped us out a lot!
