For those who love seafood with a sea-view this restaurant is right on the beach with glass windows all around. One can enjoy the most amazing seafood cuisines with ocean views and breathtaking sunsets. All of the views are right from your table.
This surf and Turf comes with two options fillet steak, or Sirloin steak, I chose the fillet steak a bit more pricey but was absolutely juicy and loaded with succulent taste and flavors. The prawns were humongous in size, basically the size of lobsters. I am a regular here and especially when I am in the mood for a good surf and turf this is my spot. Whenever I come here the prawns are always the same size and the meat is as tasty. This restaurant keeps their standard of quality the same, to me of utmost importance!
Rosa Branca specialize in seafood cuisine platters, and cataplanas, the fish market is right next door to them so all the fish you eat are as fresh as you can get it, most probably the fish were swimming in the ocean you overlook from your table view the previous night. During the evening you can see from your table all the fishermen with their little lights shining from their fishing vessels on the ocean, all around in the distance. In the morning they all bring their catches to the fish market next door.
Some different cataplanas and curry prawn stew.
I enjoyed this red wine Manoella from the Douro region with loads of fruity notes Bold, dry and well balanced see chart for more information.
Except for my table service at Rosa Branca I had to ask twice for the menu to place my order and the restaurant was not that busy this happened on two different occasions, not sure if it was because I was the only person at the table. Unfortunately I could only squeeze out a 5 for table service but they did make up for the other points on ambiance and food quality my overall recommendation is 8 not to bad after all.
