Ákua
Funchal, Portugal
Ákua gives Funchal's central dining scene a seafood-led restaurant with a lively, contemporary perspective. Júlio Pereira's cooking builds on the Atlantic's ingredients, offering dishes to share as well as more substantial plates. A seat near the kitchen can make the preparation part of the meal. Choose it when you want a restaurant with personality and a clear relationship to the sea, without committing the entire evening to a formal tasting-menu sequence.
