Here is a very special restaurant, bringing together all the ingredients for an experience that lingers in the memory. The entrance, flanked by striking Murano glassware, makes a theatrical impression before you find yourself in a room dressed in an elegant play of gold, white and blue tones. It astonishes with its impressive windows, perched above the coastline and the boundless Atlantic! The Austrian chef Hans Neuner channels, in his offering, the journeys he undertakes each year following the routes travelled by the Portuguese during the Age of Discoveries. In this iteration, the chef carri

€€€€

This restaurant, open to non-resident guests, enriches the culinary offering of the Vilalara Grand Hotel Algarve with a purely gastronomic proposal focused on both Atlantic and regional flavours, always from a contemporary perspective yet with deep roots that seek to exalt local produce, featuring fresh shellfish, daily-caught fish and vegetables imbued with the taste of the countryside. You may of course enjoy its tasting menus (Sabores da Estação and A Nossa Escolha) individually, but… best of all with the views from the terrace. Mark it in your diary for a more romantic occasion!

Situated in the luxurious Vila Vita Parc, specifically in the Clubhouse. The décor here is a spectacle in its own right, transporting us into the world of One Thousand and One Nights, with high ceilings, windows adorned with Arabic-inspired mosaics, and an ambience in shades of blue and gold. However, the real surprise lies in its cuisine, where you can see the exceptional quality of the products displayed in a glass case, including fresh fish and dry-aged meats. Striking-flavoured dishes emerge from the fully open kitchen at the centre of the room, such as the scallop served with a mild hazel
