We stumbled across this restaurant in search for somewhere to go for dinner. We were very surprised with our spontaneous find. Highly recommend the food here - it’s delicious and so incredibly well presented. The staff are very attentive. I had the venison for starter, the turkey for main and passion fruit mousse. Enjoy …

Very friendly service and good seafood! The Portuguese rice with octopus was incredible and a huge portion make sure to leave some space for the dessert, the local banana cream was out of this world

The place is good. Tuna steak was great but better to tell them how to cook it for youThe portions are small, I was feeling hungry after main course so I had to go for the dessert.Very Cozy place overall.

Delicious!!! We had a 3 course meal and every single one was a tasty experience. Cooked and seasoned to perfection, plus a beautiful presentation. The patio is very relaxing for a dinner outside and the waiter was really kind and professional.

Ten days in Madeira and we ate here four times and one dish on two of the visits. Why? The welcome from the staff, the enthusiasm and help from Sarah with my Gluten Free requirements, the unique twists on local dishes, and not overpriced considering how nice everything was. Sarah and Leandro are a real credit to this restaurant, friendly faces, lovely service and we highly recommend Tas’ca

My husband and I had a late evening. We walked around for a while looking for a nice, quality place to eat. Luckily stumbled across this place who welcomed us late on.I love fish and hadn't found any restaurants that provided fresh fish. This place offered fresh tuna steak.It was absolutely delicious and the cocktails too!The staff and owners are very welcoming and friendly. It serves genuine traditional Mederian food.Highly recommend

We have been staying in Madeira almost for a month and had been testing different places every day. In my opinion this restaurant is the best in the island. First of all, its fusion. Secondly, cooked perfect. Also, the staff is professional and it was a pleasure to spent there 2 evenings. Thank you!

Cute, little place with friendly and welcoming staff, tucked away in Funchal's city center. A welcome relief with plenty of shade, and quiet atmosphere. I couldn't stay away and came back for a second night here. Highlights from the menu were: tangerine poncha, tuna ceviche, and the banana chocolate desert (with a hint of passion fruit)
