Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The best meal we have had in years! Hugo and Marina have clearly poured their hearts and souls into their restaurant and the food they create. The menu is small so that they can concentrate on making each item on there absolutely perfect. Everything is freshly made to order and they have created the recipes themselves. They cater for a vegetarian and gluten free diet with ease, and not just by offering a salad and then ice cream for desert. The food was exceptional, the type of meal you just don't want to end. We had Algarvian salad, chicken meatballs, vegetable stew, homemade peanut butter hummus and the truffled mushrooms. Hugo's knowledge of wine and drinks pairings were spot on. I thoroughly recommend the gluten free almond cake with the almond liqueur, absolutely divine! The restaurant is in a lovely spot for alfresco dining, lovely friendly atmosphere. Do not miss your opportunity to dine here! We will most definitely be back!

This wasn't just dinner, it was an experience. I don't know how they do it, but even with a full restaurant Marina and Hugo us feel like we were the only ones there. In fact, like special guests in their home. Their attention to detail from the food to the wine and service was simply top notch, reflecting the love and effort they put into their restaurant. Nothing about it disappoints. It's worth going to Carvoeiro just to see Marina and Hugo and experience LeCrô.

It was apparent from the time I sat down (reservations are a must) that I was in for a special dining experience. Marina and Hugo, the husband/wife team, never missed a beat with Marina assisting with the food menu choices, which she has created, followed up by Hugo's in depth and enthusuastic knowledge of wine and pairing it with the menu choices made was amazing. The combination of their individual genuine passions with their desire to provide a high quality dining experience made my evening a true delight. Trust me....just go!!

This was our second visit to Le Cro, we first visited in 2022 and we loved the vibe, food and passion. Safe to say we were not disappointed on our return! The same attention to detail, love for what they do, and customer service was there … what makes this a truly special and unique meal! Highly recommend the le cro special bruschetta! We also found our love for green wine here, however they will take care of you in terms of finding the perfect wine for you! The intimate setting is perfect for foodies and couples, both times we have felt incredibly valued and spoilt. If you appreciate good food, made with love, this place is a MUST!

We enjoyed this restaurant so much that we visited twice during our week in Carvoeiro. Marina and Hugo are excellent hosts and their passion for the food and wine they serve really comes across to each guest. We loved the variety of small plates and the food was fresh and beautifully prepared and presented. It was all delicious and paired in a fun way with the beautiful Portuguese wines as well.

After a day on the idyllic Carvoeiro beach, a picturesque village in a corner of the Algarve, there is nothing better than ending up in a restaurant like Le Crô! A space, modest, welcoming, with family involvement, where we quickly forget the rush that we feel when the summer season approaches in these southern lands. A restaurant to enjoy the incredibly tasty food from Chef Filipa Santiago who, from afar, tries to understand the feelings that arouse us with each dish served, and when we approach her, saying: “simply fantastic” she thanks us, showing an embarrassed smile. Where the food blends perfectly with each wine, just like a wedding where happiness and harmony prevail. Hugo and his vast culture in oenology enthusiastically tell us the story of the wine he serves, as well as how to connect the drink with the food he presents to us. Marina is a master at serving well, with her kindness and friendliness, she conquers from the first words, a unique connoisseur of the dishes on the menu, capable of guiding us on a gastronomic visit like no other. (a note: Follow the advice of these masters of good service, thank me later) In conclusion, I must tell you that I leave Le Crô with a full belly and a full heart and what better than to feel in a gastronomic space, than love?! Forgive me for the photographs, the idea was to record each dish with its accompanying wine but it was impossible not to immediately “attack” each dish that arrived, the desire not to miss a hint of the explosion of flavors so carefully created by everyone who came together. They dedicate themselves to the art of serving well in that small space. Marina, Hugo, Chef Filipa Santiago, thank you, and without a doubt, see you soon!

Amazing little restaurant with the most delicious food. Small plates paired with fabulously paired wine at a very reasonable price. Marina and Hugo were fabulous hosts and made us feel very welcome bringing their expertise to the table. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent dinner, perhaps the best here in Portugal. Menu with few choices but all successful, the "tapas" dishes (at the right prices) allow you to taste a bit. Personally I recommend lime meatballs and lasagne. The wine is also good, they have a choice for real locals. If I have to find a negative point it is that you have to pay in cash but this can be arranged.

As always, the Lê Crô Portugal restaurant allows its customers to finish each meal with a smile on their face. Going to this establishment is not just about enjoying another dinner in Carvoeiro, but about LIVING AN EXPERIENCE that is not only gastronomic but also related to Portuguese wine culture, not forgetting, of course, the tapas that accompany it perfectly. It is simply UNMISSABLE for anyone passing through Carvoeiro. I thank Hugo and Marina for the way they served us this wonderful dinner full of flavor and knowledge. We loved it! Like always!

Amazing place. Marina and Hugo are wonderful hosts in their cozy relaxed space. The tapas were perfectly sized and beautifully presented. Between two couples, we ordered 9 different dishes and had more than enough to eat. Highlights included the 2 types of ceviche (salmon and hake), pork ragu, cheese platters served with homemade compote and an amazing vegetable stew. The salad choices including the Algarvian salad were incredibly fresh and the sardine fillets were very tasty and mild. Marina delivered the dishes at a relaxed pace and Hugo presented wine recommendations to pair with the food. He offered several choices and all were perfect. I think the next time we go we will order fewer dishes so that we have room for dessert.

Really pleased Le Cro has reopened it was always our go to place to eat in Carvoeiro! Le Cro is a unique Tapas style restaurant run by husband & wife team, Hugo & Marina who always make us feel so welcome! The food is absolutely outstanding with the most delicious tapas nothing like you would have tasted before, there are new editions to the menu and we would highly recommend the lasagna and pork ragu. They have an amazing choice of excellent wines from the different regions of Portugal and Hugo’s knowledge of the wines is outstanding. I would highly recommend you visit Le Cro and we look forward to returning soon!! Alan & Sue xx

We visited Le Cro for the first time last week, upon recommendation from a local. One of the best recommendations we’ve had. Marina and Hugo were super welcoming and were very knowledgeable about the food and drink. They went out of their way to give us the most enjoyable experience. Every course was delicious and they recommended drinks to match the courses very well, but not in a pushy way. We were talking for days about how much we enjoyed it, and we’ve recommended it to our family who will be visiting Carvoeiro within the next month. We, too, will definitely visit again upon our return to Carvoeiro next summer. Thank you, Marina and Hugo!
