The Restaurant Critic: Lusitania Restaurant

Lusitania Restaurant in Alvor offers an unforgettable dining experience. Located near the harbour and boulevard, this charming Mediterranean and organic restaurant stands out with its beautiful ambience. It’s a family-run gem that shines among some less appealing touristy spots nearby.

Cosy atmosphere

Lusitania’s warm and cosy ambience is instantly inviting. There’s a terrace, a conservatory filled with lush plants and a wood-burning stove that adds to the charm. It’s a place where you immediately feel at home.

Creative and varied menu

What truly makes Lusitania special is its creative and varied menu. From seafood and meat dishes to delicious vegetarian and vegan options, like lasagna, seitan steaks and tofu with almond and orange sauce, there’s something for everyone. They also offer various gluten-free options. Main course prices start at €14.90.

Excellent service and flavourful dishes

The service here is outstanding, combining friendliness with efficiency. The young and talented chef prepares dishes that are not only beautifully presented but also bursting with flavour.

Good to know

Lusitania’s can get quite busy, so it’s wise to book a reservation in advance.  The restaurant is open year-round, except for January, and is a must-visit for anyone seeking an exceptional dining experience in Alvor. It may be slightly pricier than some other options, but trust me, it’s worth every euro. 

Cosy, beautiful and with an exceptionally delicious menu, this restaurant deserves all the praise it gets.

Opening hours: 11 am –11.30 pm, seven days a week
