The best restaurants Vila Do Porto Porto

A red facade contrasting with an interior in shades of gray, a natural stone floor - the tone is set. Here, we love aesthetics. The plates, the products, everything has been thought out so that the dishes are as good as they are beautiful, and it's a real success. On the menu, cuisine with multiple influences: Portuguese, of course, but also Lebanese and Japanese. Azorean fish, hummus... a marvel! All cooked with seasonal produce. Please note that opening times are like the restaurant itself: atypical. Don't forget to make a reservation.

Behind the tiny storefront of this Main Street snack bar lies a very friendly brasserie. Brick walls, a large wooden counter and a menu for gourmets: a variety of breakfasts, grilled meats and fish, pitas, homemade burgers, or even a few tapas to enjoy with a selection of special beers, including "A Nossa", Santa Maria's craft beer. For a snack, or even dessert, the snack bar also offers an excellent menu of sweet and savoury crêpes, which is quite rare in the Azores.

A young, relaxed atmosphere in this friendly snack bar on the main street. For a dish of the day or breakfast, to read a book with a coffee or savor one of their many homemade desserts, the place is very popular with locals, who also gather here in the evening for a drink and a game of darts. At the back, a large covered terrace lets you enjoy the garden on rainy days. The café also regularly organizes concerts and special menus. A lively place right in the center of town!

Especially known for its takeaway dishes, and rather for its meats. They are perfectly cooked on the barbecue and served with delicious sweet potatoes, among other things. For fish lovers, there are also some à la carte. The restaurant's dishes are honest and the prices are relatively low. The shares are always generous and the products are of high quality. The room is rather modern and the waiters and waitresses are very pleasant. The choice of wines is also impeccable, as are the desserts. From the beginning to the end of the meal you should be satisfied!
