Beetje veel wind toen ik er was maar hamburger was goed.

06/17/2020





Great food, great setting especially for sunset. Had the Portuguese sea food stew and could be in the top 10 dishes I've tasted. 4 stars only due to the cost approx 20euros for a main but still well worth it.

06/17/2020





Absolutely nothing special, very expensive, the staff speaks very poor English. The only advantage is its location on the shore of the ocean (but therefore it is super windy as well).

Where do I start.... we have just left it. So disappointing. We went on a magazine recommendation drive 20 minutes to get there.
Poor choice menu... Poor service, Fatty steaks. €12.00 for a bread basket and had to call the waiter for the bill. The table wasn't even cleared 15 minutes after we had eaten.
Short changed on the bill by €10.00. Save your money and go elsewhere.

06/17/2020





Loving some of the replies from the owner. Would love to do this with my food business in Sheffield but I think my customers are a bit harder.

06/17/2020





Bardzo smacznie. Panowie kelnerzy

06/17/2020





This place is amazing, food fantastic went on a Sunday afternoon which is very popular and a singer there book in advance so that you are not disappointed

06/17/2020





Duur eten maar wel lekker zo 75 euro per persoon

06/17/2020





Perfeito. A salada de sapateira fica a pedir um rápido regresso.

06/17/2020





Très bon produits.
Je le recommande.

06/17/2020





Gute, nicht ganz preiswerte, Küche. Preise auf Grund von Qualität und Restaurant Lage aber gerechtfertigt. Lage direkt am langen Sandstrand mit netter Beach Lounge.

06/17/2020





C’est l’usine. Nous sommes venus il y 10 jours, le restaurant était rempli à 50%, et les plats étaient préparés à l’avance et réchauffés. Rien à voir avec une bibliothèque

06/17/2020





A julia's é o destino eleito meu e da família já lá vão.mais de 3 décadas, a Júlia era a amiga que sempre nos mimou, muitas mudanças mas o hábito ficou de inverno ou verão sentimo-nos em casa. Excelente.

06/17/2020





Stylische Beachbar direkt am Strand mit sehr guter Aussicht auf den Sonnenuntergang mit Parkplätzen am Gebäude. Service zuvorkommend aber nicht so schnell wie erhofft. Getränke und Essen etwas teurer, aber dafür eben super Lage.

06/17/2020





Muito acolhedor e empregados nota 10

06/17/2020





Excellent service, brilliant food, fantastic location. Brilliant ambiance, have been here several times now and will definitely be going again.

06/17/2020





Excelente. O Beach Bar é um local a frequentar

06/17/2020





Stoped for a few drinks on Sunday and spent most of the day here, very nice staff and food very nice. Only problem my wife left a black Calvin Klein hoody behind on a seat due to all the drinking, has anyone handed it in??

Muito caro para a qualidade disponibilizada.

06/17/2020





Deze locatie heeft geen aanrader nodig, het is een super plekje om van de zon te genieten onder het genot van een hapje en een drankje

06/17/2020





Great location.
We only stopped for a quick drink that was quite expensive, but that's the theme in the area.

06/17/2020





This used to be a great place to eat, that has changed great location poor food. The restaurants beside it are much better with just as good a view.
Last time we where there we found the staff to be rude. Our party of ten where not made feel very welcome. We wont be going back.

06/17/2020





Wonderful location.
Friendly and polite staff.
Unfortunately it is vastly overpriced, I hesitate to day " rip - off ".
Still, all the luvvies ,(mainly Btitish ) seem happy to be fleeced and greeted by their first names.

06/17/2020





Bardzo ładnie położona przy samej plaży z widokiem na morze, ceny akceptowalne. W każdy wtorek dodatkowo muzyka na żywo

06/17/2020





Bland food, extortionate prices, below par service, and the most confrontational, arrogant owner you could ever meet. This is a restaurant that single-handedly manages to drag down the reputation of the area. There are other restaurants on the same beach that are far superior to this one. I'd recommend trying one of those unless you want to ruin your holiday by visiting this dross.

06/17/2020





Excelente restaurante e apoio de praia.

06/17/2020





Passt für ein schnelles essen am Strand, Flasche Rose... Kellern und Ambiente sehr lümmelig!

06/17/2020





Boa comida caseira.. já são dois anos seguido que lá vou. E a vista para o mar é maravilhoso.

06/17/2020





So I was going to give it 4*s, but then I read the extraordinarily aggressive responses to other people who aren’t completely positive below and knocked one off for good measure.
The view is great, the staff were on the whole easy to deal with, and the food was decent (but not great) for the price. The fact it’s an expensive area is already taken into account in this assessment.
One major issue: wasps. They have a significant issue with wasps but instead of doing anything about it they just blame the weather. Bonkers. I’ve eaten out many, many times in the area at this time of year and never come across this issue at this scale anywhere else. Has a major impact on the meal.
Genuinely excited for the management response. BRING IT ON SHOUTY-MAN.

06/17/2020





Disappointing experience for our evening meal. Great location but mains were poor. Desserts were great. Service was impersonal.

06/17/2020





Restaurante con tres ambientes distintos,buena comida precios correctos y servicio muy agradable

06/17/2020





Tourist trap! The food was overpriced and tasted bland. Asked if we wanted bread for the table but didn't mention the charge of €3 per person so we ended up paying €21 for a 5 ciabatta rolls and some olives. Although the view and location is good the unsanitary toilets are enough to not recommend this place. There are higher end options around the area.

06/17/2020





Um lugar 5*****, num local 5*****
Sapateira muito boa e uma vista excelente!
Staff super simpático e atencioso! 5*****

06/17/2020





Pagas por la situacion que la verdad es fantastica, la atencion buena, pero el sablazo que te meten es de escandalo, cobrar 16€ por 2 lonchas de pollo(porque no eran mas grandes que eso) y un puñado de patatas fritas es sangrante y el resto igual pero ya no lo voy a comentar. Estos sitios se aprovechan una barbaridad del turismo. Si me llegan a poner lo mismo que un menu del dia en cualquier parte de Galicia no llegan 300€

06/17/2020





Bares,restaurantes com musica ao vivo, parquiamento gratuito,frequentada mais por ingleses,vigilância,vendedores de bolinhas de Berlim,aguas limpas e areia não muito grossa.FALTA DUCHE PARA TIRAR AGUA SALGADA DO CORPO

06/17/2020





Go every year with my daughter and family, always have tea and coffee in the morning and often lunch here. Lovely food and staff.

06/17/2020





Ziemlich überteuert aber bei der Menge an Personal auch klar.

06/17/2020





Awsome location, excellent food. also super for vegetarians and kids. Very friendly staff !
TIP: Just try their famous prawns with affrican black rice !!!

06/17/2020





Une vue extraordinaire. on est en dehors du temps.
Nourriture impeccable, service efficace.
Testez le Cataplana de poisson, on s'en lèche encore les babines.
Mais attention c'est souvent plein, réservez obligatoirement et insisté.

06/17/2020





Great place for drinks and bar food at the beach. We did not tried the restaurant, so I can not comment on that part.

03/17/2020





Inesquecível!! Camarão tigre grelhado fantástico

03/17/2020





Vistas impresionantes y se come bien buen trato

03/17/2020





Super endroit
Superbe accueil
Des plats sans chichi et super frais
Merci encore

Posto fantastico con vista sul mare meravigliosa

02/17/2020





One of my favourite Seafood Restaurant's in Vale do Lobo. Most beautiful beach and always breathtaking sunsets.

02/17/2020





Lekker eten maar erg duur. Wel lekker zitten in de zon!

02/17/2020





Das Essen ist hervorragend, Service sehr freundlich, Ambiente sensationell mit Blick auf das Meer. Gerne wieder

01/17/2020





Não é a melhor cozinha da costa, mas o sitio é muito bonito e o serviço é Top.

11/17/2019





Nice place to sit. Very (!) good service, good food, stunning view, clean. Try the sardines out the salad with goat cheese if you are vegetarian. Rose wine is yummy.

11/17/2019





Wunderschöner Blick auf's Meer. Terrasse ohne Schi-Schi. ..weniger ist mehr , freundlicher Servicemonsaraz

10/17/2019





Poor. On arrival the waiting staff seemed as if they were doing is a favour by giving us a table on a completely empty restaurant. No atmosphere, the food was expensive compared to all the other restaurants on the same stretch, but the food was very nice. Over priced, the staff need to learn about customer service and we would go to Issy's, Maria's, Edwardos or the Tennis Club rather than this restaurant. 2/10.

10/17/2019





Beautiful setting overlooking the beach. Food was good without being too flash. Great service from the friendly staff.

10/17/2019





Local bonito mas funcionários muito não muito profissionais mal desposto a atender

10/17/2019





Loved this place and will certainly go back often. Goats cheese starter was especially wonderful - creamy and delicious! The beach views, sunset and live music made for a very special evening.
One little grumble, we had to ask three times for a soft drink (as my husband needs to drink while eating), then again three times for coffee. A frustration in an otherwise perfect experience.

10/17/2019





Essen ist gut, Service ist nicht besonders, die Toiletten sind ausgesprochen ungepflegt, werden zwar gereinigt doch sehr abgerissen und eine gute Grundreinigung und Renovierung fehlt hier vollkommen

10/17/2019





Très bien situé en bord de plage, un peu d'attente mais c'est normal, jolie carte et snack également.

09/17/2019





We love Julias. Super position with views of beach. Upmarket beach bar. Always try and visit when in area.

09/17/2019





The beach is really dirty in comparison with others. Also swimming is not so much fun because you can see this seewead everywhere. Moreover you can say that there are a lot of people because of the good location.

09/17/2019





Nice location, food and service simple / acceptable. Location should be your only or at least main motivation to go! Reflect the review. You pay for the view.

09/17/2019





Bom atendimento e muito simpático para estar junto da praia

09/17/2019





Excelente localização, sobre a praia do Ancão, mas considero a relação qualidade preço desproporcional.

09/17/2019





Das Essen war nicht gut und ist überteuert. Service war Katastrophal. Es gibt nicht einmal Brot zum Essen! Nicht empfehlenswert!

09/17/2019





Where do hulas get their good reviews from,overpriced local beer at 6euros for a pint,a rough beer which I would not recommend to anyone,a dismal toasted sandwich at 7euros,thrown on a plate ,only accompanied by only a tissue ,overpriced and not deserving one star for a dismal snack,an evening experience was no better,so much for giving the place a second chance

09/17/2019





Staff atencioso,bem disposto e comida bastante boa tanto a nível de sabor como de apresentação. Recomendo reserva de mesa.

09/17/2019





Toujours aussi bon mais le service de plus en plus mauvais
Attente de 1h30 malgré une réservation pour commencer à manger

09/17/2019





Incredibly poor service and average food
Reply to owner: We did complain to a very fed up waiter “in the real world” who had clearly been on the receiving end of lots of complaints tonight. We were about to leave after a 2 hour wait when our somewhat disappointing food finally arrived!
We also witnessed more bookings being taken despite us being told the kitchen were too busy!

08/17/2019





Excelente local, praia espetacular e vista magnífica .

08/17/2019





Heerlijk voor lunch of diner, met uitzicht over het strand.

08/17/2019





Tem pratos saborosos principalmente o arroz africano hum muito bom

08/17/2019





Fab food, excellent service, friendly staff, wonderful location overlooking the sea. Had a really lovely night

08/17/2019





It is still a great place to stay. In the beginning of VDL Julia`s was a cosy place near the pracà nowadays. And it has still it's charm in this place where she has her restaurant and beach bar for a long time. We had a drink at the beachbar for the sun downer and enjoyed the place with happy people around us.

08/17/2019





Lindíssimo local para uma refeição agradável.

08/17/2019





Muito agradável
Ótima vista!!!

07/17/2019





Uma vista deslumbrante à beira mar. Preços elevados mas boa qualidade e atendimento.

07/17/2019





Service is very important to customers nowadays as your establishment knows but never received it for euros we paid. It not cheap prices, got far better attention at other places. Yes food was good but little things let down.

07/17/2019





Drinks didn't show up after 30 minutes because the waiter said he left the ticket in his pocket. The waiter said he would bring my dad some snacks to go with his beer which never arrived. 12 euros for a small bread basket and butter. Asked for ketchup 2 times. No waiters came over to ask us if the food was okay or if we needed anything and the service was completely neglected, clearly we were already written off the moment we walked in. We had to get up and to the till ourselves to pay no one would come so we could ask for the bill. The food was good but just very overpriced. Also if you're looking for the drunk love island vibe you've found your place ! No authentic Portuguese restaurant here.

07/17/2019





Empregados simpáticos!
Ementa variada mas com preços elevados.

07/17/2019





Muy a pesar mio,no puedo valorarlo bien,mala atencion,platos grandes y poca comida .Los camareros tendrian que hablar español o portugues,pues viendo que soy española ,se empeñaban en hablarme ingles.
El restaurante, como local espectacular,con vistas al mar.Las instalaciones bien .

06/17/2018





Awsome location,very good,tasty food. excelent choices for vegetarians and kids ,grilled fish and meat very good. Staff very polite

06/17/2018





Great bar on the sea front. Good atmosphere also , bit pricey for basic meals but, food was good and quick service was offered.

06/17/2018





Location top, Service und Preise ( 6€/beer) Flop
Preise der Biere sind NICHT auf der Karte (weder auf der Getränke noch Essenskarte)

06/17/2018





Great views, friendly staff, choice of snacks and main menu during the day. Pleasant vibe about the place.

06/17/2018





Demasiado caro para o que é. O que tem de bom apenas a vista praia.

06/17/2018





Wij hebben hier koffie met iets erbij gehad. Prima koffie en dito taart. Het ligt iets tegen de rotsen en vanaf het terras heb je een mooi uitzicht op de baai en op de surfers op het strand en zee. Het strand ligt in het natinale park.

06/17/2018





Супер вкусно и очень хорошее расположение у моря

06/17/2018





Poor service, long wait and basic food.
Ha! Just seen the response below (thanks google). For anyone with more than one operating brain cell, it's easy to understand the mentality of the manager by reading their response.

06/17/2018





Wunderschöne Location um die Sonne am Strand zu genießen

06/17/2018





Superchilliges Plätzchen mit lecker Essen und Cocktails

06/17/2018





Bon mais cher... un restaurant de plage quoi... un peu l'usine

06/17/2018





Restaurante/Bar de praia com uma vista excelente sobre a praia. Boa confecção. O staff é muito simpático.

06/17/2018





Perfect spot right on one of my favourite beaches in the Algarve. The food was served quickly and was delicious. We last ate at Julia's a few years ago before the refurbishment and were not that impressed.....HOWEVER on the drive home today my wife and I stuck Julia's to the top of our favourites list.
Kudos to you guys, we're fussy buggers and today we were nothing but impressed. Your waiting staff at the lower beach deck were bang on form and I was particularly impressed with the fish discussion (education) I had and how lovely they were to our 3 year old. Built sandcastles on the beach straight after a fantastic lunch...what more could anyone want!

06/17/2018





Food was exceptional but the service was diabolical. Booked a table 2 months in advance for 21st birthday. Table was booked for 3pm but wasn't seated till 4.45pm. Constantly trying to get hold of a waiter and a 3 course meal took over 3 hours to be served despite ordering 45 minuets before actually sat down! Although the food was very good the service was so bad we shall not be returning. Ever.

06/17/2018





We visit Julias every year the food is always good but it does tend to be busy. Especially on Sunday. So visit Julias but book beforehand.

06/17/2018





Don't expect to get your table on time but live music good food and drink so just relax and enjoy and take it all in.

06/17/2018





Restaurante bar de praia com colaboradores muito simpáticos e atenciosos. Refeições bem confecçionadas com alimentos frescos. O preço condiz com a localização. Recomendo.

06/17/2018





Serviço simpático, no entanto faz falta uns bolos miniatura para acompanhar o café

06/17/2018





Apesar de ter preços um pouco acima da média, a comida é mt bem confeccionada
O serviço apesar de simpático, foi um pouco lento...

06/17/2018





Situación y lugar de encuentro con los amigos

06/17/2018





Had high hopes for this restaurant as heard lots of good things about it. Food was good, great choice and my two dishes were great. Sadly totally let down by the service. Slow to take any orders - just one person taking orders for the whole restaurant, food delivery was mixed. Ours arrived in reasonable time, the table next to ours took 90 minutes and that was only after they complained. Trying to get the bill was also a task, in the end we went to the counter without a bill as we'd already waited 20 minutes. Such a shame as it's a great location but it definitely needs a bit of makeover and improvement of service. Cannot compare to similar restaurants in the nearby praca of vale do lobo yet prices are the same.

06/17/2018





Restaurante de praia muito cool. Preços acima da média, mas o espaço é myito acolhedor e boa confecção.

06/17/2018





Lekker maar wel erg prijzig. En mega druk, in juli. Wel aardige bediening, zoals meestal in Portugal.

06/17/2018





Boa comida a preços não muito elevados e com vista 5 estrelas.

06/17/2018





We like Julias Bar. Fun and friendly. Good food and lively atmosphere. Good in the beach bar during the day and great at night.

06/17/2018





Brilliant place to relax, have a lovely meal with cool drinks after being on the beach. Staff are well trained and super friendly, giving sound advice on the menu. Highly recommended!

06/17/2018





Ein bisschen Luxus am Strand. Nicht billig aber preiswert.

06/17/2018





Molto carino, camerieri simpaticissimi, peccato per i troppi inglesi che rovinano un po' il posto. Sempre mezzi ciucchi

06/17/2018





Demora no serviço. Estive 30 minutos entre pratos. Caro e nada de especial.

06/17/2018





I ordered delicious fish kebabs.....the caramelized shallots just took it to the next level. So good! Beautiful view and the staff are incredibly helpful .... what's not to love?

06/17/2017





We had a number of visits to Julia's while staying at Vale do Lobo and it's a wonderful laid back experience compared to many of the resort restaurants. There is also a beach bar and you can take drinks to your rented loungers which is not available at most beach spots. Sunday's can get a bit rowdy in the main restaurant when the rose wine is flowing and the live music starts and everybody starts dancing and singing along to Neil Diamond and the other classics. Highly recommend the sirloin steak.

06/17/2017





Excelente vista, ambiente, tudo

06/17/2017





It's right on the beach at Val do Garao. Great food and very pleasant Staff. Have been going here for years. Great for lunch at the beach or for evening meals.

06/17/2017





Teuer, service geht so, werfen nicht verwendete volle Majo und Ketchup päckchen in Müll in dem Fall 5Stk, das Essen war jedoch gut daher 2Sterne

06/17/2017





Venho à mais de 15 anos e é um sítio com boa comida e staff muito simpático. Recomendo.

06/17/2017





Great restaurant, great staff, great location. Came here for a week and stayed at the lake resort hotel. Have friends who come here a couple times a year and highly recommended this restaurant. Well worth the 30min drive. So good we eat here 3 times in one week. Will definitely be back!!

06/17/2017





If you like a long Sunday lunch, and you like the Algarve, then Julia's is the best of both worlds. Perched above the beach in a glorious setting no matter what the weather. Our latest visit was during a rainstorm, but that almost enhanced the atmosphere! No pretentiousness, but good quality food at reasonable prices, with friendly service. Its popularity tells you all you need to know, so just make sure you book in advance - especially for Sundays!

06/17/2017





Muito bom, principalmente a paisagem, único.

06/17/2017





Local tranquilo à beira-mar para desfrutar o por-do-sol a beber um copo. Recomendo.

06/17/2017





Preis- Leistung sehr gut. Sehr gutes Essen, nettes Personal, schöne Aussicht. Es hat für jeden etwas auf der Speisekarte.

06/17/2017





Nous sommes venus un vendredi soir fin septembre sans reserver. Très bon beach bar restaurant. Bon sevice, assez rapide (restaurant plein). Très bonne restauration à des prix corrects. Une bonne adresse.

06/17/2017





Superbe emplacement. Service génial.

06/17/2017





Adorei estava tudo óptimo recomendo

06/17/2017





This place was a piece of #%*£ !! Took us ages to get noticed (40 minutes) and or food also took 1hour and a half to come!! Never seen such a bad service in my entire life! Not to mention that the place is overpriced for the quality of the food!! WHAT A RIPOFFF!!

06/17/2017





Nice place by the beach but the food was not worth the money. My sirloin steak was too cold and about a quarter of it was pure fat. I did not order any sauce for my steak but was instead served small bags of ketchup and mayonnaise. Not what one would expect for 24.50€.

06/17/2017





We loved Julia's on our last visit to Portugal. The staff are so friendly and nothing is too much trouble for them, great for kids too and they had a wee playground outside where the staff played with the kids and entertained them. The food is delicious and not overpriced for a beachfront restaurant. Oh to be there now. Hope to see Julia's in the very near future.

06/17/2017





waiters are friendly, tasty fresh food, serve quickly. It is possible to preorder fish/seafood :)
Prices - standard i.e. High as usual at such restaurants. It's faaar from "8 eur per person"

06/17/2016





Great for a long long lunch in the sun with plenty of green wine (vino verde). Casal Garcia is my favorite.

06/17/2016





Loved sitting and having coffee, also food in the restaurant was great although the service left a lot to be desired! I

06/17/2016





Great place for dinner with very kind staff, perfect seafood and fishes, nice seaview and cool beach bar!

06/17/2015





Service on arrival was a little hit and miss and the mojito I was served was awful, but food was good and location great

06/17/2015





Great Food, Lovely Staff and the owners Martin & Shelley are lovely people, Great for snacks on the beach or a lovely meal upstairs, Shame Martin is an Arsenal fan, but apart from that, I highly recommend this place.

06/17/2014





I love the place, coming here since years!
You can't get any closer to the sea than here.
They have great food and very friendly staff.
However, they let you feel that you are in the Algarve, it's a bit pricey.

06/17/2014





I have been coming here for 25 years and it is still the same old place. It is good, I do not deny it, but it is expensive and it is always full of English people! (I am English btw!)
The fish is good and the African Rice they do is divine, but I think if you drive 15 mins more you will find a better more realistic beach fish restaurant. But hey, does what it does well. And I do enjoy the live music on a Sunday here.
It is easy reach from the beach and a nice place to meet friends for a leisurely meal.

06/17/2014





We have been visiting Julia's since 1983 and have never experienced rude waiters. The food always excellent, staff and Paulo always welcoming. First port of call when in Algarve.

06/17/2014





I've been going to the Algarve for 20 years and Julia's is the original and still the best beach bar in the area by far.
The staff are always friendly and cannot do enough for you. The restaurant upstairs is great and the beach bar is a fantastic place to sit and enjoy a drink or 2 or 3 or ...!
I fear the bad review a few below this is a set up from the neighbouring Izzy's bar as you will see from these reviews and all others on Trip advisor, Julia's is a top, top bar / restaurant. It's a shame that competitors feel the need to do this, but perhaps that says a lot about how good Julia's actually is!
If you're in the area, I strongly recommend a visit. Martin and his team will take great care of you as they always do us. We cant wait to get back out there!!
