Bem-vindo
A little corner of Mexico in the Algarve
Mariachi is a run of tables on a cobbled Old Town street — papel picado bunting overhead, the Frida mural behind you and the yellow skull sign at the door. Nachos loaded with cheddar and jalapeños, tacos with the filling of your choice, and margaritas out of the freezer exactly the way they should be.
Come for a quick plate of tacos after the beach, or settle in for a long evening of fajitas, tequila and churros. There's Tex Mex, pizza and a kids' menu too — and families, couples, big tables and late arrivals are all welcome.
From the kitchen
The plates people come back for
Mexican classics, Tex Mex, pizza and fifteen cocktails — all cooked to order, with the heat dialled up or down. Everything is available to eat in or take away.

Ice cold
Margarita, two ways
Classic, or morango — strawberry. Part of a cocktail list fifteen long, which is why people come back twice in one week.

Walk-ins are always welcome — but in July and August the room fills fast, so a table request saves you the wait. For groups of eight or more, please book a day ahead.

Down a side street in the Old Town
We're on Travessa da Liberdade, a short stroll from Praia dos Pescadores and the main square — the street with the flower pots and the string lights.
