Best Contemporary Italian Restaurants in Madeira

This was not our first trip to Pepp & Dolores, and they never disappoint. As always, we started with the whipped ricotta, and it was as tasty as ever. We followed that with the fried artichokes and the gem salad, and both were delicious. We chose the Limone on our own, and our server made two other outstanding recommendations of the Funghi pasta and the Butternut Squash pasta. The amazing food and service always keeps us coming back!

A wonderfully cozy atmosphere on a cold February evening to celebrate a birthday. It was so nice to not be rushed. The food was delicious.

Our food and service were excellent! We ordered a little bit of everything including grilled and raw oysters, the chilli garlic prawns, arancini, salads, steaks, aragosta, risotto, green beans, wine, espresso martinis, olive oil cake, and tiramisu. Every single thing was to die for and I’d order it all again! The vibes were perfect for a Saturday night date night or even girls night out. We will definitely be returning again and again!

Upon arrival, I was given a rose for Valentine’s Day. Such a sweet touch! We sat at the bar and had plenty of room. I actually would prefer to sit there instead of at a 2 person table. The eggplant parm was massive and so delicious! We added the pasta but the sauce was a little too sweet for me. The vodka rigatoni (+ meatballs) was also incredible! Our server was kind and the manager also checked in on us throughout dinner. Overall great experience and can’t wait to go back!

Food was really good; flavorful and bold. I will dog be adding Al-Posto to our restaurant favorites in Cincinnati.
