An excellent restaurant for an early dinner before the sunset at Ponta do Pargo. The food is exceptional, the view is great, the service was also top-notch - the waiter so friendly, talkative and helpful. I had the octopus that was very tender, 10/10, and sea bass - also great! The quality of food is great for the price, and the views make it worth it 100%. The chat with the waiter was also great - very enjoyable and if you're driving to Ponta do Pargo - this is a perfect stop at any time of the day as they also do breakfast here.

We discovered this restaurant randomly as we did our sightseeing nearby, but it’s such a gem! The food was absolutely AMAZING. Everything was fresh. The pasta was great and the sea bass had a very soft and fresh texture. Even though it was a far drive from Funchal, it was all worth it.

If you are looking for a cosy, local place with great food and polite service this is a place to go. It might get busy with the locals during the weekend but we’ve always found a place to sit. We’ll come back soon!

Very nice restaurant with a great ocean view. The waiter was very friendly and easy to communicate due to his good English skills. His proposal for black pork lagartos was great as the meat was on point grilled and still juicy! The price with a drink for around ~20€ was fair. The waiting period for the food was short but I need to mention that it was rather calm with only 2x other tables. At least in my case I had a good experience and can recommend this restaurant!

Excellent quality restaurant at the end of the island. Definitely worth the drive. We've just made reservations for tomorrow for dinner at sunset because we enjoyed our lunch so much. Excellent grilled steak and fries, and sardines and garlic shrimp starter. They have an amazing wine cellar as well. Don't forget the perfectly toasted Bolo do Caco. It's a must!

What a great place! Not just great food, but also an amazing view, if you can get a table overlooking the ocean.
We ordered prawns and octopus as starters, which were both very good (prawns slighlty more). Main courses were tuna fish and the local madeiran black fish with banana.
Ample portions that you almost can't it all. Prices very reasonable.
Absolutely loved our meal here and was the best food we had on the island. Great atmosphere, great service with lovely views. Husband had steak which was great flavour and cooked perfectly. I had espada with banana and was so delicious. Both followed by the best cheesecake we have EVER had! I will be going back to madeira and heading straight for here.

After a long walk on the Levada Nova, our mission was to find good food and a couple of glasses/bottles of wine. O Fatolim did not disappoint. The service was great, Andrew was super friendly and helpful. His wine choice was great. The food hit the spot and the sunset from the conservatory was gorgeous. Highly recommended.

Their octopus rice (for 2) is amazing, good portion much appreciated after a day of long hikes, and it came with a nice avocado salad. Service is also excellent! Very good quality and prices. Few vegan dishes also available.
