Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Have been visiting Green Valley for a few years and as usual it never fails to impress. An extensive menu of fresh and delicious dishes, always so tasty. The difficulty is to decide what not to have! Dining of the highest quality with great service, at relatively reasonable prices - competitors will need to up their game to keep pace. Fabulous.

3 generations of our family have been going to Green Valley for many years, and are never disappointed.
Now in its 25th year, it retains an extensive menu of beautiful & fresh dishes at very acceptable prices. However the prawn starter and trio of fish mains are particular favourites.
Green Valley has a dedicated and loyal following due to its exemplary service, authentic family ethos and natural charm.
The restaurant offers a relaxed patio with views to a couple of tennis courts should kids want to play. Highly recommended for both intimate dinners and larger family occasions.

After coming to Portugal for almost 30 years this was our first visit to this Restaurant. If yesterday’s experience was a true reflection of the standard then we can thoroughly recommend it to anyone who enjoys fine food and good and friendly service. All four of us enjoyed our selections and the Sole which I had was cooked to perfection. Each of us had three courses of completely different selections and we have no complaints whatsoever. The price too was acceptable given the high quality of food. Fortunately no one was playing tennis in the adjacent court.

We found this restaurant when visiting it’s next door neighbour the Thai Bistro, we phoned and booked a table
And so glad we did. Felt very friendly and welcoming.Restaurant was busy, many were regulars.
The menu was varied and as food emerged from the kitchen, we knew it was going to be good.
This is not cheap but you get quality ingredients and beautifully cooked so value for money.
Wine available by the glass .
The staff have great rapport with each other which creates a really nice atmosphere.
Highly recommended, would love to return when next visiting the area.

We have been holidaying in the area for years and eaten in the Thai restaurant next door for years, not realising this place was here!
We were promptly greeted upon arrival with a genuinely warm welcome, and seated at a socially distanced table.
The service was very prompt, professional and warm. Our servers anticipated our needs before we had a chance to ask, which was really unusual.
The selection was enormous, and there were easily 5-6 dishes I would have loved.
I opted for the Goats Cheese starter, followed by the John Dory with prawns.
Both dishes were of excellent quality, and very filling.
Unfortunately it isn’t possible to add a tip on the card machine, so remember to bring some cash. We had to nip back the next day to leave our gratituity (as the service was so good, it would have been awful not to!)
Only criticism is the music, which is horrific!
Will definitely return!!

Given this restaurant is in the Quinta Do Lago area we tried it out expecting a hammering on the wallet.
However what we discovered was a super friendly service offering, a varied and interesting menu, good value wine offerings and a high quality food serving.
This is a gem of a restaurant and after the initial visit it has become a restaurant we always book in advance when we visit Portugal.
The trio of fish dish, lamb shank dish and many others are excellent.
Definitely a little diamond of an offering and looking at the people who go in it looks a very loyal, local clientele.
Well done Green Valley

This restaurant is absolutely brilliant! I have nothing negative to say about it whatsoever. The food is exceptional, we had muscles, scallops, prawn cocktails, sea bream and much more as we have been here many times! We found this lovely restaurant last year and are so happy to see business booming again! Everything was cooked to perfection, the food came out in good time and the staff are very attentive and kind! Have never experienced such great service. Really really pleased and will be coming back multiple times! The price range i would say is average, it is neither cheap nor expensive, you definitely pay for what you get which is fantastic food.

We had a delicious meal here - very well cooked and presented, decent portion sizes and fairly priced. Lots of fish dishes to choose from but steak and chicken too if fish isn’t your thing. My goats cheese starter was really tasty and there is plenty of choice of potato accompaniments and fresh veg to go with the mains. Desserts also delicious and plenty of choice. Service was friendly and the ambience of the restaurant was perfect to be able to enjoy a conversation. I would definitely eat here again if we return to this resort.

We had the best ever crispy white fish we’ve ever had in the Algarve amazing white fish lovely sweet potato fries , mushy peas and NO BONES in the fish, service 10 out of 10 and fantastic value for money.
João and his wife work their socks of and deserve all the business they get.
Please try their wide range of fish and meat and more and you will always return.

We went to Green Valley on Monday evening. The menu was very varied and the food was delicious.
All the staff were super helpful and friendly. Our guests enjoyed their meal so much they requested we return on Friday, which of course we were happy to do.

10 of us visited on a Saturday night where we enjoyed a first-rate meal, service and hospitality. I chose the trio of fish which was served with a white sauce and an assortment of vegetables. My wife chose the sea bass. The restaurant has a nice ambiance and is well worth a visit. Thank you to John and the team for an enjoyable evening.

Our large family had a delicious meal, with excellent service, for a fair price. There’s a huge menu and they were very willing to cater to our specific dietary requirements. We all had different types of fish for mains - all excellent - and varied starters. While very nice, it’s not a fancy or pretentious place.

Had trouble finding this place as map technology was playing up but glad we persisted as this is wee gem. Hubby said John Dory was probably best fish he’d ever eaten which is praise indeed. Charming and friendly service too.

Perhaps I had the wrong expectation when we visited this restaurant. From the reviews we read it seem to be suitable and have positive feedback. Whilst there was nothing particularly wrong with the venue, we didn’t think it was anything special when compared with the wide variety of options in the area.
To be further staff were lovely and there was nothing wrong with the food but at the same time there was nothing special about it. It’s such a good price point and for that reason alone is worth considering where compared with a lot of very expensive restaurants that can be found locally.
