Ty Madeira in Cardiff

Ci era stato consigliato da amici gallesi e ci siamo trovati molto bene. Propongono un menù turistico a 17 sterline a persona con due portate a scelta tra 6 antipasti e 6 primi, soprattutto di pesce. Abbiamo provato le sardine grigliate e l'orata alla brace, davvero ottimi. Il servizio è impeccabile, particolare menzione per il nostro cameriere Miguel, un ragazzo spagnolo molto bravo e simpatico.

It’s amazing for any occasion , lovely food, an amazing ambience and absolutely perfect service . Had a great night . I had the sirloin steak and it was one of the nicest steaks i have ever had.

Ten out of ten ! Amazing service. , amazing food ! We had scallops cooked to perfection - 28 day aged fillet which was unbelievable and we had 3 children who were treated amazing by our waiter . The children’s good was done by half on adults portions and they loved it ! Absolute gem of a place in cardiff - Thankyou

Even before we had eaten my husband already wanted to come back again. We both had the hanging kebabs which were fabulous and the cauliflower in light batter was delicious. The service was also amazing . We booked for 4pm on a saturday on a glorious day in Cardiff and the restaurant was really well managed and we will definately go back again.

Absolutely gorgeous place to eat genuine Portuguese food. As we had to go early a bit quiet but was filling up!

Nice food lovely service a bit expensive

A lovely friendly restaurant in the heart of the city of Cardiff. The food was excellent. Make sure you book in advance as it gets really busy

Food was very underwhelming, had scampi to start, I’ve had better at my local chippy! Lobster spaghetti for main, not cheap. Only about 6 small pieces of unidentifiable fishy stuff in a pile of ordinary spaghetti, didn’t taste like any lobster I’ve ever had before and I LOVE lobster! Also it was a beautiful sunny day and we asked to sit outside but were told that we couldn’t.

Everything we had was delicious.

Having just attended our daughters graduation, we decided to go for lunch. This place is a real find! Super attentive staff and a delicious reasonably priced menu, there really is something for everyone. If you're looking for authentic and tasty Portuguese food with a great atmosphere give this a try!

Return visit with everything still as 5 star as before. Newly tried the cataplana (monkfish and prawn) - superb and generous portion. Mushroom and prawn starter is just incredible.

We had planned to go to this restaurant for about 2 years my due to recommendations, but just never got round to it because of where we live & trains. What a shame we didn’t find this place earlier. The food was spectacular, recommend the ‘beef inferno’ (mild spice, compared to the dish title but sooo tasty). The side dish that totally shocked my wife & I was the battered cauliflower. The sautéed potatoes were average, but we ordered a side of sweet potatoes & garlic mushrooms which were lovely. Our table was booked for 6pm. Quiet on a Monday when we got there, but it soon started filling out. There was a birthday across the way & the staff did a Portuguese 🇵🇹 celebration which was nice to see the small details of going the extra mile. Be aware of the percentage of the red wine as my wife needed a helping hand out lol! Can’t wait to return!!!!!

The food and service was amazing, gorgeous food definitely would recommend to anyone , the pictures speak for themselves 🔥

Fantastic food at great prices. Lovely grilled salmon mains, and try the onion rings and cauliflower in light-batter 😍.

👌 Before visiting this restaurant, I had already organized it through Google maps, I had a great adventure of going camping by bike from London to all over Wales, this beautiful restaurant with a wealth of good atmosphere and good service, excellent restaurant, good food rating 10 I will return with friends..thank you very much

Great restaurant with attentive staff and a very good lunch specials menu.

It was my husband Birthday just to remember him as he past away April ,and Tony love going there

I've visited this restaurant a few times and the most recent visit was the best. Food was superb, and was matched with great service.

We booked mid-afternoon which wasn't really necessary as it wasn't busy so atmosphere was lacking. The food and service were excellent and I heartily recommend a visit.

We stepped in to have lunch. Overall we had a good experience, though I felt a little rushed by the waiters to order, despite the restaurant not even close to being full. Food was good, not impressive though.

The food was so good. The only thing that let the place down was how long it took to place our order

Food tastes great could improve on portions and add more side dishes

Great value for money. Don’t go crazy on the starters, the mains are very well served!

The restaurant is quite long. The food seems very fresh, you can observe at the counter the fresh food they have. The restaurant also offers fresh variety options of the day. The restaurants serves traditional Portuguese food. The food was quite delicious and served in an unusual way which made it interesting. The staff members were quite nice. There is access to bathrooms. The food was delicious and would recommend. The food style is different to Le Monde but it as well serves good food. Someone was celebrating birthday at the time so they used a traditional Madeira festival sound maker which was quite festive.

brillant lunch, superb service real taste of Maderia

Few negatives on this occasion. It took nearly 20 mins to take our order and the service wasn't as it usually is which is disappointing. The wild mushrooms and prawn starter was lovely. Very tasty. The ribeye steak was too fatty (more than just marbling) and the potatoes were slightly overcooked. I was tempted by the special menu which said to ask about the 28 day matured steak. When I was taken to the counter to see the different steaks, one was recommended to me but it was £86. Or I could have had 500g of ribeye for £55. Too much really

Amazing food, incredibly friendly staff - make you feel welcome straight away. Always come here when I'm in Cardiff and introduced some friends - safe to say, they'll be back!

Superb food. Staff are attentive and passionate and will recommend/explain anything you need. Instead of having mains we chose a few starters and shared. Food is clearly freshly cooked and if I lived closer than 4hrs drive away I'd be a regular customer!

Great atmosphere, attentive and friendly staff , tasty beef skewer! The chocolate mousse desert the best !!❤️

The best restaurant in Cardiff 😋 definitely will back many times as possible

Amazing food Amazing ambience Amazing staff especially Angelina!

Miguel has amazing energy, we had a great time !

We had a great lunch there, from the set menu. Good atmosphere, great staff and service.

Very busy Saturday night visit. Food was very good, 2 had beef which didn't have any fat on it all all, 1 had chicken. All enjoyed. I had chicken tymaderia, a breat in a cream sauce, was very nice 2. Side of potatoes and cauliflower in a soft batter. Would go again.

Nice restaurant , but food not quite good , I ordered fish , and coming not fresh and old , also chicken with sauce not fresh too , and chicken skew salty , disappointed for lunch cost £85 not as I expected

Went today for lunch .( Not the first time) Food absolutely amazing . Service was excellent as always. Definitely one of my favourite places to eat in cardiff

Authentic madeiran food, incredible delicious and reasonably priced. Great service - all the staff were friendly and very attentive. I’d highly recommend the mixed seafood starter and beef espetadas - absolutely wonderful.

A great family run place to eat while in the centre of Cardiff

Ty Madeira in the heart of Cardiff on St Mary Street is always worth a visit. The staff is friendly and accommodating, but sometimes it takes a while for them to take care of you. The food is very tasty and attractively prepared and is definitely worth the price. We have been here several times and have never been disappointed. However, you may want to reserve in advance during peak times. Otherwise all that remains to be said is: Obrigado!

great night out with colleagues. Food and service was amazing. Thank you :)

Went for lunch and had the set lunch menu. I gad grilled sardines to start and chicken Portugesa for main. Really good value at £16.95. We washed this down with a bottle of house white wine. Would recommend.

Back to our island for a few hours! 🙌 One of the best meals we've had in recent times. 🙌🙌 Wonderful place, extremely attentive, competent and friendly staff. Congratulations to the kitchen professionals! 👏👏👏👏 Being from Madeira is another level. 😂 We strongly advise anyone passing through Cardiff to go there. You won't regret it. ❤️❤️❤️

Excellent service and food. We were a group of 12 in the party. There were lots of very large tables which is always the way in many restaurants. The place is enormous, a real tardis. Had to have the hanging mixed kebabs, of course 😁

Excellent customer service. Good is excellent and very tasty. If you love real portuguese cuisine, this is the place in Cardiff. Highly recommended!

Great food and drink. Great location

Food was bland and overpriced for portion size. Ordered some meat skewers, asked for well done, but it was burnt. Tasted like lighter fluid. Service was slow and unattentive. No options for children.

Atmosphere : very loud and busy, felt OK kind of like a large family event, I am not sure if I would attend at such a busy time again as we went on Saturday bank Holiday weekend Prawn cocktail was very watery it felt like they had been soaking in liquid for too long or frozen, not what I would expect from a top rated restaurant. 400g fillet & 300g ribeye medium rare on both. Came extremely purple practically rare. Waiter took the meat back and recooked. At this point my steak was ruined, anyone who knows steak, if you refire it ends up bitty and dry. Arrived overcooked, really well done in parts and medium rare in others, considering this cost me just over £70 it was not the service or quality I would expect. The meat was not seasoned in anyway I could not taste any salt or pepper it was just a plain chunk of dry meat, shame. Potatoes were lovely, stuffed peppers were tasty and fresh and the staff were really great and friendly. Probably wouldn't rush back. If I did attended again I would go mid week and have something smaller to test the food quality.

Loved the food and the service exceeded expectations!

Absolutely delicious. Great, friendly service. Couldn't ask for more. The Beef Espetada is definitely a recommendation!

Excellent food and service will definitely go back for second visit.

Really enjoyed my visit Food was delicious amazing service Highly recommend

All the staff are very nice and the seafood is fresh.

Beef espedadas were very good and excellent value for a city centre restaurant. Good choice of wines. Great atmosphere to dine in. Definitely worth a visit.

Amazing with my wife's food allege everything was outstanding, will definitely be back

Excellent value lunch with super friendly staff. Thank you all xxx

Wonderful place with amazing food.

Lovely food - excellent value (especially the lunch time menu)

Staff were very welcoming an lovely.The food was gorgeous.would definitely go back an highly recommend it.

Food was great servic was great .

Just a great place to eat. All the fish is fresh, as you would expect. Meat skewers are too die for.

Went here randomly on a night out with my hubby for the rugby. It was lovely, food was good and service was good- staff are really pleasant. Would go again.

Quite very good and quite charming Portuguese restaurant in central Cardiff. Come and dine in a Portuguese cataplana.

This is simple the best in Cardiff fact! an original not one of the newbies. Outstanding food and service.

Nice restaurant, affordable, tasty food

Food and service is always incredible! Thank you to all the staff there!

Called in on a night out in Cardiff. Food is excellent and staff are very friendly. All in all, it was a lovely experience. Highly recommended.

Amazing staff and incredible food. Always recommended this restaurant as such a lovely place. The monkfish is so tasty.

Absolutely brilliant venue, down for the rugby, food excellent, environment great, service amazing, can’t wait to visit again, and absolute must if you want great food in Cardiff

We go to this restaurant quite frequently through the years and I've never had a complaint of service food at all always found a staff very friendly helpful nothing is too much trouble

Went here today with friends I ordered a chicken epetada, while eating it I found a long, blonde hair , I have short grey hair. Called the waiter who changed it for a fresh one. That bit was good. Apology? No. Money off or free drink offered? No Will I go here again? No

Always a lovely atmosphere. Friendly and helpful staff. Food is always of a good quality.

Great staff, lovely surroundings with good atmosphere. After ordering, our food didn't take long to come to the table. Can highly recommend and will definitely return.

Had a poor meal here a few months ago, three of us all said the same about the food as we all have the same. Provided feedback regarding the food and service as they kind of forgotten about us when there. They issued us with £30 voucher, total. Today I called and asked why I had to pay a deposit for a lunchtime booking. They responded saying well I don't know you, don't know if you will turn up. I questioned why I was being viewed as not honourable and decent to receive further bad service from the GM Lucia to then talk over me and ignore me, handing me over to another manager making me feel like a criminal. Disgusting behaviour, shame on you. I will Never Return to this restaurant.

Fabulous food, great service great price

Don't be deceived by the facade as its a large restaurant that goes back a long way. The waiting staff were excellent. Nice food, had scallops from the Specials board as a starter which were perfectly cooked and the mussels were also delicious. For main we had one of the meat skewers that they hang from a hook on the ceiling beams and swordfish. These were served with fried potatoes & battered cauliflower which was surprisingly good. I was a little underwhelmed by the swordfish as felt it was slightly over cooked but my partner loved his skewer. Overall nice experience just wasn't wowed.

Great atmosphere friendly staff and fantastic food 👌

First time there over the Christmas period, some drinks are pricey but beers on tap reasonable, steak was amazing definitely be returning in the near future

Absolutely great place to eat. Food is akways great and perfectly 👌 atmosphere

Unfortunately a negative experience. Slow service. Asked multiple times for knife and forks with meals. No bread with soup unless asked for (multiple times) felt as if it was a burden to ask for these basic things when paying £60 a head. Small House wine with a dash of lemonade was £10.50 which you wouldn’t even pay in a high end bar in London. Had high hopes for this place. Expected standards to slip over the Christmas period given the demand, however when paying what we were charged we expected better. Wouldn’t return.

Great food, service can be a little too relaxed,had to wait for drinks order last time,time before very quick, I have used this restaurant over many years, even when it was in a different location,think the service has slipped a bit since covid. Let's hope it improves.

Buenisima comida arroz con marisco deliciosos sabores y todo fresco

Food was delicious and service was fantastic - looking forward to returning very soon!!

Absolutely delicious food that's reasonably priced as well. The atmosphere was buzzing and the service fast & efficient. Well worth a visit.

Lovely Food, Lovely Place, but service slow for 3rd course and the bill.

been coming here for many years tasteless food wont be coming back

Food was excellent. The staff were friendly and very efficient.

Superb location and the service was outstanding. The food was exactly what you wanted, quality specialty’s.

The food and service was amazing. We had Dover Sole, best I've tasted for a long time. Good wine also. Resturant was noisy as so many Christmas Parties in

Absoutely loved my first visit here. Delightful young waiter that served us went the extra mile. He was polite helpful and wore a smile. He also gave me the name of a fabulous hotel The Pestana garden in Maderia. Great holiday for us in 2024 booked. The food was excellent too! Thank you Maderia. You deserve to do well.

My partner and I managed to get a table on a busy Saturday night without booking. Our table was fine however we didn’t have a hanging hook so we assumed we couldn’t have any espetadas, but as we hadn’t booked we were grateful for the table and didn’t mention it. Staff were very accommodating and friendly to us, we both had a steak - cooked perfectly and some sides. The food came out really quick and overall our experience was very good, amazing staff, thank you.

This is a busy restaurant for a very good reason, the food is excellent! Service is great too.

Went as part of a team meal, the atmosphere was nice, a little restaurant with friendly staff and some great whiskey. Food is amazing as certain selections they hang in hooks above you and wrap a garlic butter over them, you then take pieces off as you want I had the t bone steak which was beautifully cooked and well seasoned, paired with the peppercorn sauce was a match made in heaven . Highly recommend

Great service and food. Would recommend coming here.

Had lunch with friends, good was excellent, service was great 👍. Would definitely recommend, and hope to be visiting again🤞

The beef kebabs were fantastic as always. Everyone in my party throughly enjoyed their food. The staff were excellent 👌🏼

Très bel endroit. Produits frais. Personnel sympathique. Plats copieux. Rapport qualité prix correcte. Bien situé dans la ville.

Really amazing stunning food I would recommend to anyone going there the food is beautiful here and really good

This was my first visit to Ty Maderia in a while but the service,food and atmosphere is still excellent. My wife and myself really enjoy our lunch yesterday.

We visited this restaurant last night in the hope they had a table available, and they managed to squeeze us in. Lovely place, staff friendly and attentive, food delicious. Our only suggestion would be the beef ribs on the starters would be good with a sauce. We still had a fabulous evening and all enjoyed our food
