Restaurante dos Artistas

Wow! My wife and I ate here for our anniversary meal last week. The level of service exceptional. Every employee we came into contact with from the waiter to the lady changing the cutlery all wished us a happy anniversary. The food was amazing, we had the Chefs menu and the Portugal menu. The Octopus was one of the nicest dishes I've ever had. Cost was circa €100 euros a head for the five courses together with a bottle of wine, water, port and expresso to finish. So although not cheap by Portugal standards it was worth every penny.

incredible restaurant, one of the best’s i’ve been to! every single waiter was very friendly and the drinks&food were fantastic! would definitely recommend if you’re in lagos

Another lovely meal at this restaurant. We came fir a 5 course meal 2 years ago and really enjoyed it so had to come back. I had the Garden menu despite not being vegetarian and it was delicious. Our waiter Phillipe was lovely. Very attentive staff asking if there was anything we didn't eat. I dont eat fish so they kindly swapped out the fish paste from the spreads for the bread.

Wow - what a find!! We had a fantastic evening at Artistas, enjoying our meal in the outside terraced area. The staff were super friendly from the moment we walked in, attentive and professional. The outside setting is relaxed, and makes for a wonderful atmosphere. The food was fantastic - we dined ‘a la carte’ and sampled the beef tartare, scallops, duck and fillet - all were exceptional, not to mention the thyme creme brûlée which was outstanding! Cannot recommend Artistas enough - go if you get the chance. 😁😁

Our best meal in Portugal! Service was friendly, professional and efficient. The food was to-die-for! Can highly recommend to anyone wanting an elevated dining experience - very different to most of the restaurants you will find around Lagos.

Fantastic restaurant! The service is top notch, literally white glove service and attention to detail. We almost never finished a glass of wine before they were there to refill it for us. The food is creative and flavorful! They paired unique ingredients while also keeping the integrity of the dish. We really enjoyed all of our meal and would happily return again.

This restaurant deserves all the stars in the world. The food is exceptional, a must try experience for everyone. It’s a symphony of tastes and colors, masterfully done. We had the chef’s menu and it blew us away. The staff were brilliant as well. They went above and beyond to create a memorable birthday for my partner. They brought champagne, an exquisite cake with a candle and they sang happy birthday. We got complimentary amuse bouche dishes as well. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who is visiting Algarve and wants to try a superior dining experience or celebrate a special event.

Dinner took over 2 hrs. Food took forever to be served only for all of 4 duck dishes to arrive cold. Food was too salty. Waiters not attentive to dropped cutlery. Ambience was pleasant. Over-rated.

Disappointing, expensive experience. Five of us dined and tried many dishes a la carte across the menu. Food was inconsistent, bland, and in some cases inedible. Cocktails were watered down. Server was either new or unpracticed. Best part was the art and ambience. We cannot believe this place recently received a Michelin star.

Cool atmosphere, great drinks and excellent food. Would go back! Their patio was beautiful, service was great. I had the tasting menu of the fish soup (delicious), the chicken (good) and the almond fig dessert (delicious). My husband got the risotto to start, the lamb and the chocolate cake all of which we're excellent.

A regular and never fails to deliver. Certainly the best food in Lagos and you can either do the whole menu which is high end in terms of food price or chose carefully- in both cases good value for money. Slick, friendly service. Nice atmosphere

Currently the best gourmet restaurant in Lagos!!! Right in the center of Lagos, Casa Amarela will provide you an amazing gastronomic experience. You'll have several options you can choose from as prix fixe or choose specific plates. Do yourself a flavor and for for the menus - amazing!!!!!! Their drinks are equally beautiful and equally tasty. Perfect place for a date or a special evening Bom apetite!

AMAZING! Patio is a must! Everything was exquisite and unique! A must when in Lagos! Great staff and atmosphere. A hidden gem for sure.

The restaurant was beautiful inside! Food was delicious and very creative! Service was very good! This is a wonderful restaurant and you will really enjoy the total experience!

This was the best place I ate while in Portugal. The brown butter ravioli may be one of the best things I've ever eaten and the amuse bouche of duck with orange mouse -- who could ask for more? I'd highly recommend the dessert platter as well. It came with everything you could possibly ask for from crème brûlée to honey cakes and everything in between. They accommodated my wife's chocolate allergy without hesitation and made sure we enjoyed our meal at every turn. Five stars!

Please ignore Matthew B's review. If things went bad for him, it was something he did, said or how he treated the staff. Artistas was incredible! We live in the NYC area and thought we had had experienced the best food the world had to offer...until we visited Artistas! We did not have a reservation on Sept.13, 2021 and tried the restaurant anyway. We were welcomed as if we had a reservation and was provided a 5 minute waiting seat and an incredible strawberry cocktail so much better than any in NYC (would you like a tiny bit of alcohol with your strawberry flavored sugar?). Once at our table, we were waited on, hand and foot, by the nicest people. (Mario, we are talking about you!). The chef was an absolute magician! The flavors he (we asked and it is a 'he') created in his literal works of art were so amazing. It was an outstanding experience and the best at our time in the Algarve. You. Must. Go!

This place was amazing!!!!!! Went with my boyfriend for our anniversary. Would recommend wearing something nicer then jeans and a hoodie

We were part of a big group and our server did a great job. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful inside. I had a great scallops appetizer and I tried different fish dishes. Everything was delicious. All the desserts we ordered were great and I liked the wine.

I love this place! The staff are very professional and not stuffy.The food is outstanding. This is clearly my favorite place to eat in the Algatve.

Had a reservation at the restaurant at 1830 on 28 June 2019 with Sina but they could not accommodate our child with a seat. We were the first ones to arrive and we were turned away from sitting outside. Restaurant was sweltering hot and muggy with no music or ambience. I can't believe this establishment boasts @Michelin on the outside. Total disappointment. Servers were a tad snooty and we were glad to leave for a better experience. Sina also received a notice on "Fork" that the restaurant canceled our reservation after they could not accommodate us. Cannot recommend at all! Vai pra outro lugar! This was our one and only low point experience in Lagos.

Came here with my husband last week and had a wonderful experience! We were recommended to try this restaurant so we walked by and they had one open table we were able to slip into without a reservation. Everything about the food is delicious and incredibly unique!! The chef's special touches and surprises made our experience. The service was excellent! I do wish our server had more recommendations. We over heard a server in another section go more into detail on the menu and about the restaurant. We were out on the patio which was private and beautiful.

this restaurant deserves the full 5 stars, amazing experience from start to end! you can def get reservations the day of but the later you call the later your dinner will be! This was hands down the best food in lagos! We started off with beef carpaccio and had this green curry soup and ended with prawns for dinner! We had one more app but forget the name! Nothing failed us! Highly recommend this place if in lagos!

Probably the best in Lagos, took the 6 courses + a delicious wine. We went for the expensive way but you can easily only spent 50 EUR / person as well. Staff is thoughtfull, very friendly and they know everything about the food and the suitable wines on the menu. Great interior (lot of paintings on the wall) and an option to sit in a cosy little garden outside. One word: perfect!

Great value good quality restaurant in Lagos. Although it didn't look to much from the outside the restaurant has a lovely outdoor patio at the back. We had a great lunch with fantastic service and were surprised by the cheap price of the set lunch. We started with fresh bread and four butters plain, herb, lobster and meat (pate really). These were all good with a nice selection of bread. Then an amuse bouche of chicken and tomato terrine which was very good. We chose the tomato consume which was excellent and refreshing on a hot day. Main course was a well cooked sea bass with lovely deep fried cauliflower. We had the choice from the main menu for deserts. My cherry cake was superb. We decided to finish with some blue cheese and port again from the main menu. All in all very good and certainly worth stoping at for lunch. But beware it was fully booked in the evening!

Amazing! Top quality food and amazing service. I have been each year for the past 4 years years with various size groups always fantastic.
