The name "Oxalis" is inspired by the vibrant pink flower that blooms on the front lawn of Casa Velha do Palheiro every spring. This delicate flower, thriving in harmony with the estate's environment, symbolises our philosophy: respect for nature and the embrace of changing seasons. These principles are reflected in our menu, which evolves with the natural cycles of the land.
At Oxalis, we invite you to savour the flavours of Madeira through a dining experience that supports sustainability, honours the environment, and celebrates locally grown, high-quality produce.
Oxalis is proud to be recognised by the prestigious Michelin Guide, joining their list of recommended restaurants in 2025. This distinction underscores our commitment to offering an exceptional culinary experience that showcases the best of Madeiran gastronomy while emphasising sustainability and the use of local, seasonal ingredients.
