Casa do Frango Restaurant is on the EM1289, number 275A, just outside Olhos de Água and a short drive from the Pine Cliffs resort – a neighbourhood grill house built around one thing: piri-piri chicken. Updates and photos run through theirrather than a full booking site, so a phone call is the safer way to lock a table on a busy night.
What to expect
The menu is built for sharing: whole or half chicken, grilled and finished with piri-piri oil you can ask to turn up if the table likes heat. Sides run to salad, rice and chips, and pizzas fill in for anyone who doesn’t want chicken. Families from the Falésia and Olhos de Água hotels come back more than once in a week – it’s that kind of place, not a one-off novelty stop.
Hours
Open for lunch, 12:00-15:00, and dinner, 18:30-22:00, Monday through Sunday. Friday is the exception: lunch stays the same, but dinner starts later at 19:00 and still runs to 22:00.
Who should book it
This is for families staying around Olhos de Água and Pine Cliffs who want a proper dinner without a taxi into the Old Town, and for anyone who thinks chicken deserves to be the main event rather than an afterthought on a mixed grill. Book ahead or call before turning up on a summer evening – locals eat here too, not just holidaymakers.
Skip it if you’re after a formal sit-down meal with wine pairings. This is a casual, family-run room, and that’s the whole point.
Worth it?
Yes – it’s a straightforward chicken dinner near Olhos de Água that won’t cost you resort prices. Pair it with a day at Praia dos Olhos de Água or the wider Praia da Falésia, and see best restaurants in Albufeira for more options along this stretch.
