"What a unique place. It is like eating in the dining room of a house. Run by the owner and his wife. Warm and welcoming. Around 4 or 5 tables certainly book in advance. Antonio is host and chef. The décor is Portuguese through and through. Forget about silver service, this gem of a place is all about the food and the wine. We had monkfish, scallop and prawns presented on a hanging skewer very dramatic! Served with chips and salad. The fish was to die for succulent and tasty. Yes, the prawns were shell on. (it does seem messy, but worth it! The chips something else. I know chips are chips, but not these. Great will a little sea salt. A real tasty salad which was the best ever. Portuguese cheese and port followed beautiful. Closed off with a real good red wine. A superb experience with stunning food (evidently Antonio catches some of the fish himself! Would I go back most definitely!"

Great atmosphere with only 4 small tables, run by the charismatic husband and wife team. Excellent prawns, hake and Portuguese beef. Book well in advance.

alvorada is an absolute gem. an intimate little restaurant with only 4 tables in the house of the owners. antonio, the cook, goes out fishing 2 or 3 times a week and cooks what is in the season and he catches. eating is exquisite and the owners are very charismatic and have many layers to share. definitiw one for a special occasion are about £20 and starter £8 10. really special culinary experience!

never expected to find a local Portuguese restaurant in cornwall. this beautifully located, very friendly owners (sue and antonio) pacts a very fresh seafood menu that tastes like the time I was in porto. quality of the food was amazing and the price at the portions was worth it well. they have to try the full three cures, how it is done by them. the handmade ceramics they have are also great as souvenir. must try, but remember to book before they are busy every day. they close on Sunday and Monday.

"So let us share our experience, We went in tonight as a family after seeing that it home made food on the drive to sennen and looked online and had a good look at the food available on the menu also looking to see if it was dog friendly and it ticked all the boxes, Upon arrival me and my wife went in 1st to ask if we could have a table for food and if dogs can go inside and staff were a little unsure but they confirmed we could upon asking for a table for 7 but one in a pram he said we don’t have the availability to cater I was looking at a table big enough and eventually said that this table was available whilst being seated we had 2 table one clean and the 2nd just been finished with so needed a clean but he came and cleaned both tables and he squirted the cleaner on a clean table and the over spray bounced off the table and went over our selfs then we were handed a menu freshly printed A4 paper thrown on the table (WET TABLE) so they stuck to the table upon agreeing what we wanted we went to the bar within 2-3 mins of being seated we knew what we wanted and when we asked for the meal it was OUT OF STOCK (Sunday lunch) ok fair so as I was with a family member at the bar I quickly rushed back to the table to ask my daughter of an alternative she wasn’t happy, So I made a meal up of all the extras on the menu so I went back to the bar to find my family member ordered 2 fish and chips then I realised my wife also wanted Sunday lunch so I quickly rushed back to ask her what she wanted and went back to the bar just as my family member left and asked for fish and chips was also sold out also! 99% of the menu was SOLD OUT this should of been discussed upon arrival not as we were ordering I run and operate my own business and this isn’t how I would treat my customers this isn’t how an establishment should be ran! Even when I was standing trying to order a member of staff was standing there arm against the wall doing nothing while customers are standing waiting to be served! So we decided not to eat and my family member went back to the bar to ask for a refund as we couldn’t eat as a family and the staff were iffy about offering a refund but 10 minutes later they did refund my family member as it became a scene for other people as they could see what had happened! This establishment should be call the 1st and late time you come here! We ended up walking to the chip shop down the road for food we are very disappointed in this company and establishment! For anyone who wants to eat please make sure they HAVE STOCK how can this establishment run without stock? Never again tonight they lost over £200 revenue due to this situation!"
