They say that Madeira, the “Pearl of the Atlantic,” is paradise on Earth; we cannot guarantee that, but… dining here is like being in Eden! French chef Benoît Sinthon champions a fresh, flavourful, creative cuisine that celebrates local flavours (From Our Seas, Traditions, Homage to the Atlantic, From the Valley to the Mountain...) by reviving old recipes, reinterpreting them with modern techniques, and using products that underpin his commitment to sustainability (many are organic, from the PortoBay garden). They offer two tasting menus: Terroir Experience (which highlights the island’s own i

Are you looking for an exclusive gastronomic venue on the charming island of Madeira? This could be the perfect choice! Located in the luxurious Belmond Reid’s Palace, this restaurant offers you one of the most breathtaking views of Funchal’s coastline. Its name pays homage to the legendary William Reid, the Scottish dreamer who began building the hotel more than a century ago. The proposal focuses on two tasting menus (William and Discovery) that showcase local ingredients and pair them with modern techniques in a classic, elegant setting.

This restaurant, set on a beautiful Madeiran estate, realises the dream of Filipe Janeiro, who first made a name for himself as a private chef and today, with his family’s support, gives free rein to his personal vision of gastronomy. The concept, already unique in terms of space (the dining room, with the kitchen in full view, recovers an area formerly used for events), is expressed in a contemporary-style tasting menu, always based on island produce: North to South (6 courses) and East to West (9 courses).

Among the starters, designed for sharing, the “fish sausage with barbecue hot dog” and the cod tacos are particular favourites, while for the main, we recommend the braised tuna with razor clam rice, and the “market fish” with tomato “migas” and an onion foam.
