Calcada Do Cais - Ponta Delgada

Excellent service, the best food we ate during our 9 day trip to Terceira and Sao Miguel. Our group had the seared tuna, pork cheeks and stuffed chicken. All were excellent. The servers were attentive and the atmosphere was modern and fun.

What an odd experience. We were looking for somewhere for a drink and some nibbles, and we saw this restaurant had a number of free tables so thought we’d go and ask. The lady told us we’d have to sit outside as we weren’t ordering a main meal, which seemed bizarre given the availability. Once sat outside, we ordered two beers and the cheeseboard, which itself cost €16. The ‘cheeseboard’ arrived what a joke. It consisted of some dry, stale fruit, 6 very small bits of cheese, some basic strawberry ? jam and some toast bits. There are so many lovely places in Ponta Delgada with friendly service and this is definitely not one of them. The main woman appeared overbearing, but the rest of the staff were trying their hardest.

After one hour of waitting the waitress said that we have to wait more. And she said they dont have fast food. Very umpolite person.

Nós entramos “sem querer” e estamos agradavelmente surpreendidos. comida deliciosa e preços bastante atraentes para a qualidade da cozinha! Parabéns ao chefe!

We went for dinner. There was a very long wait for our main courses which then arrived cold. Additionally we were charged 8 euros each for three glasses of wine. Our fault as we hadn’t checked the price and it wasn’t written on the menu but we’ve never paid more than 3 euros 50 cents a glass before so be warned! The food was mostly good and the waiters very nice
