What to expect
O Paulo occupies the headland beside Arrifana Fortress rather than the beachfront below. The outlook takes in the fishing port and Arrifana coast, making the location part of a sit-down lunch or dinner.
Grilled fish and shellfish dominate the extensive menu, with seafood selections dependent on the catch. Cataplanas and rice dishes for two suit sharing; meat, pasta and a chickpea curry give groups other choices. Ask about the day’s whole fish and how it will be portioned before ordering.
Planning your visit
- Book for the Arrifana restaurant; the group also operates other venues.
