About Cá - Te - Espero
A lunch or dinner at Cá - Te - Espero delivers the kind of honest, homemade cooking that Tavira's centro does well when it's on form. The bacalhau, the bitoque, the picanha and the bifana are the dishes people keep coming back to write about — portions sized for one but generous enough to mean it. The house dessert has its own following. The place looks out over a square and the river, and the room is kept clean and well-ordered. Staff here have a warmth that locals notice and visitors comment on unprompted, and the welcome lands before the menu does.
