The story
Perched on Travessa do Outeiro das Eiras in Terra Alta, Magma offers diners a beautiful terrace overlooking the Atlantic. As Sentieri Golosi notes in their Azores travelogue, this spot delivers good local fare—fish soup, a green pepper fillet (the “Magma Steak”), and the famous São Miguel pineapple. The restaurant’s 4.6-star rating reflects the appeal of its scenic waterfront setting and casual, outdoor-seating vibe.
The kitchen leans into Azorean staples without fuss. The fish soup is a hearty opener, while the steak gets a peppery punch, and the caramelized local pineapple provides a sweet finish. It’s the kind of place where the view and the plate work in harmony—a relaxed, scenic stop for seafood and steakhouse comforts on the island.

AI summary of what 3 dish mentions say about the food
Reviewers rave about the Magma steak, calling it a tender, perfectly seared triumph. The overall vibe is one of bold, unpretentious excellence that keeps diners coming back.
“I took the Magma steak, which is a fillet with green pepper, cooked well. I like it because it reminded me of the first day I met Mipan. It comes with vegetables — the vegetables are obviously sprinkled with garlic, both sliced and chopped, so be careful not to bite into a piece of raw garlic. Good.”

Zuppa di Pesce
I had the fish soup — they said there was no rice, but there's pasta instead. It's good, there's fish in it. There's a big piece of tuna inside. The pasta is cooked so long it melts in your mouth. Good soup.

Ananas di Sao Miguel
We finally got to taste the pineapple from Sao Miguel. Very good aroma, very good flavor. I like it. Nothing to do with the pineapples we eat in Italy, guys.
