Restaurante O Jaime

Almost empty as most restaurants here have been. A very warm welcome and a chatty chef. Delicious simple fish dishes. Very nice wine. A limited desert menu so we went without.

We got the grilled fish and it was really good. We got the fishes of the day and all of them were very special in taste and very fresh. If you enjoy good fish it’s a must go!

The seafood was fresh and couldn't have been better. The waiter helped us choose some of our entrees and the lapas was a fantastic appetizer

We were staying in Vila Franca, and decided to take a ride into town to look for a place for dinner. This restaurant is on a terrace, but fully enclosed, so you feel like you're dining outside among all the beautiful plants and flowers. It's a pretty big place, but the night we were here there were only a few other diners. Later on in our visit, we learned that the restaurant Estrela do Mar, is also owned/run by the same people.We had the chicharros grelhados, which were served with boiled potatoes and salad, a bottle of Mare Cheia red, and coffee. The fish was so fresh and simply prepared! We really enjoyed this meal.We paid 45 euros for dinner, which we felt was a little high. Please note that they only take cash!!

Great red wine. The pre-packaged dessert selection is not too bad if you let it thaw a bit. Pity about everything else.
