The place
Open since 1993 on a vineyard and vegetable estate above Santana's sea cliffs, Quinta do Furão pairs Madeiran staples — limpets, espetada, scabbardfish — with its own estate wine and produce. The dining room and terrace look straight down the island's most rugged stretch of north coast. Book the balcony; the view does as much work as the kitchen.
When to come
Sunset dinner on the terrace, booked a day ahead in summer
Worth knowing
- Book ahead for a balcony or terrace table
