Rotas da Ilha Verde
São Miguel Island
"The chocolate cake is so good it should be illegal"
Rui's experience
I’ve been coming here about once a year for many years now, and the first thing we always order is the chocolate cake. Yes, I’m starting with dessert. That cake is dangerously good. Food-wise, this place is all about consistency. The quality has stayed solid over the years. No drops, no surprises. I value that a lot. You know what you’re getting, and it delivers. If I’m not mistaken, this is the only restaurant on the island that’s 100% vegetarian, which already makes it stand out. The atmosphere is great. It has this weird but very nice mix of Mexican vibes and your grandmother’s living room. Somehow it works. The downside is space. The restaurant is really small, so it’s very common to show up and find it full. Booking is pretty much mandatory. Vegetarian or not, it doesn’t matter. The food is genuinely good, and it’s an easy recommendation.
Pros
- The chocolate cake is so good it should be illegal
Cons
- The restaurant is really small
- Parking is super hard
