What to expect

Tapas e Petiscos O Paixão is in Hortas, on the N122, rather than in Vila Real de Santo António’s central shopping streets. Portuguese and Mediterranean home-style cooking forms the core of its offer, with seafood and tapas among the choices. It gives visitors staying around the wider town and Monte Gordo area another option beyond the beachfront restaurants.

There is an outdoor terrace and parking at the premises, useful if you are making a meal stop by car. The operator describes it as a walk-in restaurant with no need to reserve, and publishes its menu directly. Use the Hortas address when planning the journey, with the N122 location placing it outside the central square.

Planning your visit

  • Location: N122, Hortas, Vila Real de Santo António.
  • Outdoor tables and parking are offered at the premises.
