If You looking for excellent Portuguese Food and a family and friendly restaurant this is definitely the choice. Possible my best Portuguese Food I had in years for a portuguese myself was like home, generous portions and fair price. The service was nothing less than outstanding either, the 2 ladys serving on that day (21/07/2024) were friendly and helpful and very welcoming. Definitely will return.
Great portuguese restaurant with a local feel. Delicious food and superb and non expensive wine. Would recommend!
This Portuguese restaurant is amazing, the food was great, the staff were on point and the amount of food you get for the money you pay it's worth it and not to mention it was delicious
Not sure I understand some of the reviews of this restaurant. My brother and I do not speak a word of Portuguese but the staff couldn’t have tried harder to make us feel welcome. Very generous portions and mains cooked on a fire and were delicious. We had a steak (huge, tasty and came with rice and salad) and a seafood stew (grilled squid, mussels, claims and king prawns with boiled potatoes and a lovely tomato and onion broth). Enormous serving of passion fruit cheesecake at the end (£5) and the flans and île flottantes looked great too (we were too full to do more than share a desert). With wine, beer, sparkling water and coffee the bill came to £65. Very reasonable for the portion size and quality. Would totally recommend.
Super warm services and amazing food! We’ll be back.
