Restaurante Mercado Velho em Machico

Mooi restaurant, fraai centraal gelegen en met gezellig terras. Het eten was simpel, zonder extra franje of aankleding, maar smaakte wel goed. Service prima.

After a leisurely morning on the beach, we chose to have lunch in this beautiful courtyard. We waited to be greeted and seated but had to ask a waitress whether we just sit down. She waved over to an empty table and we made ourselves comfortable in a very beautiful setting, adorned by the shade of trees. I chose lemon & mint water which was delicious. For a starter I chose the local cheese with honey and yogurt. My partner chose fish soup and said it was the best! I had golden sea bream for main & my partner ate scabbard with banana. All freshly cooked and delicious. The restaurant then closed and the staff went to eat. People coming in, got up and left. We were left to ourselves. No offer of dessert or coffee. A manager is much needed in this beautiful restaurant to offer better customer service.
