In May 2025, Aqui Há Peixe closed a long and meaningful chapter of its story. We passed the torch and are now stepping into a new phase of our personal and professional lives. Those who visit the restaurant will no longer find us there.
The idea of opening a seafood restaurant began as a blank canvas — just like the soft sand beneath our feet when we moved to Praia do Pego in May 1996. For 29 years, we welcomed people under the motto “the pleasure of serving well,” because for us this work was rooted in an experience of deep physical, emotional, and spiritual fulfillment.
It warms our hearts to think of the countless people who sat at our table, who traveled many miles just to see us, to taste our food, who laughed out loud with us, raised their glasses, and lifted their hands to the sky saying, “Thank you, dear God!”
It was a joy to serve you.
Thank you to everyone: our team, our suppliers, our guests, our family and friends. Every single one of you.
