Calhau de São Jorge
About
Calhau de São Jorge in Madeira sits in the 9230 São Jorge area on the island's north coast, well away from the southern resort strip. It is a restaurant, and the kitchen serves through two sittings: 12:00 to 16:30 and 17:00 to 21:30, Wednesday to Monday.
It is known for its position on the quieter northern side, where Funchal, Câmara de Lobos, Caniço and Machico lie some distance to the south, while Santana, São Vicente, Porto Moniz and Calheta are closer neighbours along the coast. Visitors rate it 4.6 out of 5 from 69 reviews. First-time visitors should expect a straightforward meal rather than a formal setting, with the sea as the main draw. Its details are published on the São Jorge parish website.
Being on the north coast means cooler, breezier conditions than the sheltered south, so a layer is worth packing.
Fish stews and grilled fish are everyday dishes on Madeira, and each island keeps its own recipes, so ordering seafood is the natural choice. Portuguese is the official language, spoken with a local accent. Rain falls mainly in the winter half of the year on the northern islands, while the southern islands are drier overall.
