Cachalote Restaurant

The restaurant "O Cachalote" was built in 1969 in the fishing village of Porto Moniz which is a place where every tourist who comes to Madeira must visit. It is distinguished for its construction on the volcanic rocks surrounded by the sea which also originated the natural pools and thus giving it a natural rare beauty.

in this restaurant you will have the pleasure of enjoying a mixture of flavours of the regional and international cuisine. we invite you to taste our specialties like the limpet rice (since 2011 has got the record of the Guinness Book ), the fish soup, the parrotfish filet with prawn sauce, the black scabbard fish filet with banana, the steak with pepper sauce and our special homemade pudding which delights the sweet tooth. If you prefer, let yourself be seduced by our passion fruit pudding.

If you enjoy an open air meal you can choose our terrace while you listen to the sound of the waves below like a Beethoven symphony. There you can have something light such as snacks, ice cream and cold drinks.

With a capacity of 650 places, the restaurant offers a specialized service for events and banquets, buffets or a la carte in an atmosphere of high quality.
