Incredibly appetizing menu that does not disappoint 😍 highly recommend the mussel starter in creamy sherry sauce... A comfortable yet classy atmosphere for any kind of occasion. Make sure you come here hungry! The portions are not small!Excellent steaks, pastas or pizzas (amongst others). Friendly waiters who know how to sell off the menu. Sit outside and experience the bustle and exciting atmosphere of Monte Casino, or choose a more secluded spot inside for an intimate family gathering or date night.Make the effort to try the starters, Mains, and desserts, you will not be disappointed. Share amongst a group of family or friends, these mains are made to be shared!Prices are relatively high, and this is not the place most can afford to eat at regularly, but it is worth a visit and is certainly a treat.Thank you for the incredible experience.

Have visited this establishment for years. Salad and foccaccia starter was fine. The mains offered on the menu were very pricey so we opted two share a vima and chicken schnitzel. Service was OK.

Huge size portions, lovely attentive waitress, great tasting food. I had the prawns and calamari combo and my husband had a combo that contained 200g sirloin, 2 lamb chops and ribs. Steak was medium to well as opposed to medium rare,which is hard to cook cause the steak is quite thin. But overall an enjoyable date night out.

It doesnt have the atmosphere of the best restaurants in the Montecasino complex, but the service is good, the food is tasty and the prices are reasonable. The chicken I had was really delicious. The pastas are also recommended.

Neat service and attention for detail. The atmosphere and setting is beautiful. The food are warm and delicious. When its busy, the waiters/waitress are disturbing as they run up and down, continuously bumping my chair. Nevertheless, I recommend you reserve a table in a less busier area.

5 star food all round. Quite simply the best lamb kleftiko Ive had recently. They lose a star because wait staff are not attentive enough. We were short on glasses, side plates, they didnt take one persons order, and missed a side. Apart from that, warm rolls were served with a lovely sauce, and the menu is wide ranging enough on food and drinks.

Went there for supper with my wife. The staff was very friendly. Waited a while for our food after ordering, but it was worth the wait. I ordered hake , my wife a pasta dish. The servings were quite impressive as I had to finish off my wifes pasta (portion too big for her to finish) Well done guys,see you soon

The food was delicious and ambience lovely. Service was quick, however, the waiter ******* was plainly rude. Hes attitude doesnt fit with a restaurant of this quality-hence Ive taken away 1 star.*upgraded to 5 star- manager has addressed the matter with the waiter of concern.

I decided to go for my birthday dinner to this restaurant. I received a dirty spoon with my cappuccino. When the new spoon arrived I tasted my fresh cream from my cappuccino and it was completely sour.After my meal they brought me ice cream and the spoon was yet again dirty with hard spinach on it that couldnt even be removed with a tissue because it was so hard.Sadly I wont be visiting this restaurant again.

Service was ok our waiter didn’t seem very happy or enthusiastic. Starter Haloumi salad was missing ingredients advertised in the menu. When alerting management they disappeared and never came back. Main course was truly amazing. Bathrooms hadn’t been cleaned in a bit but that’s lite. It’s a great restaurant their food is truly amazing.

I received such an amazing experience. I booked my 30th birthday here and the manager went out of his way to make it special for me. He asked if I drink and when I said yes, gave me multiple birthday drinks. Some fancy shots and an ice cream spiked with Cape velvet for dessert. I live in Australia and made the booking with my friends because of their amazing La Portugeusa pizza. Im glad I did. Thanks for the great night!

Great food, wonderful atmosphere, prices may seem high but for the quality and portion size they really arent! Service is above and beyond! I once ordered a fantastic pasta dish that contained mushrooms, and I love the taste but not the texture so I decided to order it with mushrooms and just pick them out. The waiter noticed and offered to take it back to the kitchen and make a whole new dish without mushrooms for me! I explained that I liked the taste but not the texture and he offered to have the chefs remove them for me! Seriously some 5 star service! Excellent

I looked at the reviews after a long flight, I have to say BRILLIANT I came early as I had not eaten all day, service great, food came almost too quickly!!! But what a pleasure. The staff were fantastic and management paid attention at all times. Food just perfect, BUT!! Make sure you are hungry, as the portions are very generous, great selection of wine etc etc etc. Great experience thanks and keep it up. I will be back

Food was good, but not impressed with the staff removing chairs from tables whilst we were eating we thought was not on during our late Sunday lunch. They asked if they could take the empty chairs from our table which I refused. When we left I said that I hoped that us eating our lunch had not disturbed their movement of chairs. The girl serving our food was great it was other staff that upset us.
