aye,went there last september and food was ok,sevice good and yes,the glasses are very ammusing!

i loved the food and thought it was excellent! cant wait to go there on the first night of my holiday this year!

Can't quite agree with Kelly, I think that the chinese up the stairs is distinctly average bordering on poor and if anyone could help me solve the puzzle of why recently every chinese, UK and CVO, seem to be putting CARROTS in everything, now don't get me wrong,I love CARROTS
but not in everything

Been there a couple of times and always had good food and service. Same with the chinese (Grande Mulher?) slightly further up hill on right hand side - they do a good lunchtime offer about 4.90 euros for a choice of starter and main course.

Went to that one last week, quite impressed.

The complimentary Lizard liquer wasn't bad either!

I have to agree with Tricky - our 15 yr old and friend tried this restaurant and as bon viveurs, they rated it a no-go.

went to the chinese again last year and it is run by different ppl to 2004... but food was just as good. dnt no how u can dislike it. and the balcony has a great view to below can watch the world go by...

and the best thing, every time we went in there they played BLUES GREATEST HITS... and with me being their huget fan thats a very good thing to play!

We tried this place in January, because so many other restaurants were closed. Not very Chinese would be the best description. Food served on plates rather than in bowls. We had to ask for chop sticks, and they had no idea what Schechuan meant in terms of either a place or a food style. We found the house wine in Intermarche the next day for 87 cents a bottle.

Just a typical chinese with a balcony. Plenty of food though couldn't eat it all. A whole chrispy duck for starter !!!!!!

Had the worst meal of our hols' there the Lemon Chicken was like chicken in batter, with a slice of lemon in WATER no syrup pretty basic. the nicer one is up the hill past the entrance for the Angel and almost opposit Happys'.

A better Chinese restaurant is Jardim Sul in Lagoa. It is on the walking street. They are open 7 days a week.

[bobbie-anne]

Thanks for that will try next time we are there.

If anyone wants to eat to eat good chinese food in the Algarve there is only one place - Zu Yi on Vilamoura Marina (the one closest to the Tivoli Marina). We go often for lunch and make a dim sum menu from the excellent selection of starters that include home made siu mai dumplings, great sesame prawn toasts etc and wash it down with loads of jasmin tea.
All other places I know in the Algarve (even the so called Chinese Gourmet in Almancil) are nothing more than the slap up westernized chinese you find at high street restaurants in the UK.
