Brisamar - Aljezur

What a surprise. What has been a very normal bistro has not only changed its name to CAL Arrifana , the environment, the food, nearly everything changed. The service was fast, especially helpful with smaller children, the food very tasty, a card with many typical local starters and main courses. Even the ketchup and mayiones for example are handmade. We will go there again, to taste as much we can from the menu.

Staff is really friendly but the food isnt well. The Fish looks like at was long in the freezer. Prices are Not inline with quality.

Walking downhill from the car park, realised the beach was an extremely long way down so stopped off here for a welcome drink. Sat outside and watched the world go by. Arrifana is beautiful and this place provided a little haven. Good beer and wine, didn’t eat here but plenty were.

We spent a week in Arrifana beach. The Brisamar restaurant is located at the top of the cliff. It doesn 't have the best views, but it is a great alternative to the beach front places. Specially since it has great seafood and a resident Japanese sushi master. It is a great pleasure to have great sushi after a surf day.

I had my meals most of the time in this restaurant within my one-week stay in Arrifana. It is well located just before the path downhill to the beach area; this gives the place a really nice view of the whole beach. It provides al fresco dining for those looking for a bit of sun while enjoying their meal. The staff was really nice and attentive as well. They've got an array of good meals as well, which I really enjoyed.
