We have been coming to Ferragudo for many years, but have never visited the 'A Ria' what a mistake that was. The food is excellent, the staff are wonderful, especially Jessica. I am not a lover of fish, but my wife is, and she said...the fish was delicious, all cooked fresh. I had the Pork & Clams, in fact I had it again on another occasion, I can highly recommend it. The deserts are to die for, try the Almond Tart & Ice Cream. We will certainly be coming back, now that we have savoured the delights of the 'A Ria'.More

Umberto and his lovely family make you feel so welcome at their great little restaurant on the quayside. We enjoyed the best Dover sole we have ever had, cooked over charcoal and expertly filleted at our table. Unfortunately, we had not visited Ferragudo for eight...years but the welcome, service, quality of food and value for money at A Ria was just the same. A fantastic evening once again.More

We arrived 15 minutes late after a 8Km cliff walk. I apologised on arrival but the main waiter ignored my apology. We had an email confirming our 8 O’clock booking but he refused to accept this and kept saying our booking was for 7.30. He...scowled at us throughout out meal and refused to serve us. On ore departure he he once again repeated his allegations. On a more positive note the rest of the staff were very helpful and the food though expensive was tasty.More

Went to Ferragudo last week in April. We went to A ria without a booking, they made us cosy in the outside covered area and provided blankets as it sas a cool night. The service and food was its usual superb standard. We returned for...our last night this time booked a table inside, again service and food was superb. Definitely one to try their fish cooking is awesome, we will be back in AugustMore

We visited on a Sunday lunchtime and the restaurant was quiet in comparison to the restaurants in the square, but it had been recommended by a friend so we decided to give it a try. So glad we did. Lovely menu with lots of Portugese...dishes but the sun was shining and there was fresh fish to have so we opted for a gilt head bream to share. The wine list is good too and the white wine we chose was delicious. We had lovely marinated olives, bread, butter and cured cheese while we were waiting for the fish to be prepared. The fish was beautifully seasoned, grilled and cooked just perfectly. The fresh dressed salad and fries were great too. Service was really friendly too. Highly recommend as a way to while away a Sunday afternoon.More

Never disappointed, after 3 years away it was like it was yesterday. Great pork and clams and fantastically grilled, and filleted sea bass - amazing!

The best cataplana so far, and we ate lots of cataplana's already :-) All the rest was good as well and the people are very friendly. We will be back !
