It was a lovely meal although the waiters and waitresses did seem very miserable very hard to get a smile and felt they had not got time to talk and felt like they did not enjoy their jobs tourists a bit of a pain!!! They were very welcoming to the locals!

Been to this restaurant numerous times and it never disappoints. Great food, great staff, great atmosphere.

Pork Mignons and Fillet Steak to die for.

Comments

The food is probably the worst part of this restaurant, it is consistently not what it says it is and the food never makes me delighted as there is always something wrong with it. The service is OK and the location is good but just not as good as reputation suggests.

It was the last night of a 2 week family holiday and we had a trip to Vilamoura for our last supper. As many will know who have visited Vilamoura there are a lot of places to choose from to eat and after perusing the boardwalk we decided upon Il Lamparo. As a table of 10 we had 2 vegetarians and 2 under 5s so finding somewhere suitable for all was tricky. We thought the littlens would be an issue as the place looks beautifully trendy and grown-up but not at all. Plenty of options to cover all food requirements and it was all incredibly tasty.
To top off a truly wonderful dining experience the staff were fantastic! Some of the best service I've experienced at any restaurant. Very attentive but not too fussy that they're up in your grill every 2 minutes. Mega polite and didn't seem to mind the 8 month old baby grabbing at their clean white shirts with tomato sauce hands, and the 5 year old playing with the dinosaur straws!
Would highly recommend and if ever in Vilamoura again I will be stopping in there for dinner and a mojito!

Great restaurant with a lovely menu ... The Pasta and Pizza are lovely just as much as the meat and fish dishes. service is excellent and quick - My steak was over cooked and it was immediately changed with zero fuss..

We liked it so much we went back for a second run later in the week and was not disappointed...

Great place in the marina.
