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.

Went here as this place seems to get a lot of decent reviews, starters came quickly! My main course was a bit confusing but my fault for not asking the waitress what it was !! Basically they bring a few different types of cooked meats...to you and they slice it off for you, I didn’t like the mini pork ribs, there was hardly any meat on them, some of the beefs were ok but some were micro thinly sliced and not cooked to how I prefer it, you do get fries and another side with it though, my wife had Salmon which was lovely, quite a pricey place but it fills you upMore

Based on a recommendation, we ordered the Rodizo( Brazilian meat bbq’d carved on a skewer in front of you) the food just keeps coming until so stay no more. At €28 per person Chips are an extra as the dish is served with rice and...black beans. The choices of meats are at least 12 different types, you choose which ones you want to eat, chicken, sausage, beef, lamb, bull’s neck ( try it, it’s delicious). After all that meat, there isn’t really any room for pud. Well worth it, book early, it gets very busy from 9pm, only a few tables outside, so go earlyMore

This is simply the best rodizio you can find in quarteira, served with rice, and black bean sauce, banana croquettes the skeweres filled with steaks, pork ribs, sausages, chicken hearts, pineapple, pork, bull neck, American beef, just keep coming until you say no more, some...meats are rubbed with garlic and salt but are definitely not over salted. Always book at least a day or two before you want to go. The owner speaks English and we tend to book before arriving so as not to be disappointed. Bem bom has become a firm favourite of ours and the many people we have taken over the years have always returnedMore

This is our third visit in Portugal and we decide that this one was our last one a good buy one. But after visiting Bem Bom we will definetly come back to Portugal and to Bem Bom. This is definetly best restaurant I ever visit....Staff so friendly and professional . Food great same as prices and the restaurant very very clean. I would like to mention that my wife is vegetarian and I didn’t know if there will be something for her to choose in the menu. But after contacting restaurant they asked what she would like to eat and they will make it as a special order just for her. After we arrived chef came to introduce himself and took my mrs to check her dish if she is happy with it. Over all 6 stars out of 5 😉 my wife mom and son we all were very happy with this amazing experience. Thank you so much Bem Bom… 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻More

I have been here before and had to come back again. The food is great and the service is superb. Try the Rodizio for a real meat feast. I cannot remember what my wide ate but she declared it very good.

Hidden gem . Absolutely the best steak ever, cooked to perfection. The rump and fillet to die for, served with rice chips n black beans. The chicken pate to start with was beautiful. Huge portions , lovely attentive staff . Would definitely recommend 100%

We ate here twice during our holiday and both times we were really impressed. I really highly recommend the Picanha steak, it’s cooked on a skewer and carved periodically onto your plate, simply delicious! The accompanying dishes of black beans, salad, fries, bread basket are...huge. The restaurant is popular with Portuguese and does get busy but the friendliness and efficiency of all the staff is second to none. Best to make a reservation ( especially if you want to go at the weekend). If your looking for sea views or similar you won’t get it here as this restaurant is a couple of streets back from the sea but they do have a pleasant courtyard that they make the most of. This restaurant is definitely not a “tourist trap” and the food and service more than make up for its location.More

This is how restaurants should be. Service great. Food great. Going to return, yes. I can understand the draw of restaurants on the marina in Vilamoura, the setting is what you pay your money for. But, at Quarteira you just find this type of eatery....It is worth the walk.More

We were excited to visit after we had been given high recommendations from my friends. I ordered the Rizzo ? The meat on skewers . My husband had the steak and peppercorn sauce . Within an hour of being home he was throwing up all...night and extreme diarrhoea. He spent all day yesterday in bed . The vomiting has stopped. We never ate in the day as we wanted to save ourselves for this feast ! The service was awful we arrived at 7pm and never got our meal till nearly 10 pm . They were attentively serving the regulars Portuguese but we were like the last resort . I certainly didn’t get all the meat that was being given to the other diners . Poor service poor hygiene and contaminated foodMore

Had the most amazing experience at this restaurant. We had actually found the restaurant through trip advisor searches for steakhouses in Vilamoura. If you’re staying in Vilamoura it is about a five euro taxi from the marina to this complete gem. We both had the...fillet steak (medium rare) with peppercorn sauce and rice, chips and salad as our sides. The portion sizes are extremely generous and the steaks themselves were to die for. Service was tremendous, all staff members were so friendly and the chef came out to ensure we enjoyed our meal! We will most certainly be back on our next visit to Portugal.More

If you love meat and good service you have to visit. They went out of the way to make sure my grandchild was looked after food-wise (she can be a bit picky) and let her have a small steak with loads of chips, rice, and...broccoli (oh, and slices of lemon) as she did not like what was on the children's menu. The food for the adults was amazing - we want their Pir-Pir sauce recipe! If we had bellies big enough we could have eaten all night long but my god the quality of the food and flavour was great and we soon filled up. If you are in town you have to try it if you love meat! They were also great after we had left and were very kind and understanding and checked if my granddaughter had left her favorite thing (which we found on walking rewalking the return walk back to where we were staying) even though they were very busy! Great people and food!More
