What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Restaurante Augusto is highly praised for its fresh, well-prepared seafood and friendly service in a charming nautical setting. While many highlight the signature lobster rice and excellent value, a few diners felt some dishes lacked presentation or were overpriced. Overall, it's considered a must-visit for seafood lovers seeking an authentic and enjoyable dining experience.
"Really lovely place with an air of refinement - quality linen and china etc. Fish is what they specialise in- with lots of specials - one of which was the small razor clams -delicious. Everything we ate was super fresh and perfectly cooked. The service was charming, though my Spanish was severely put to the test, despite helpful notes in English on the menu. Would thoroughly recommend."
