J'adore ce restaurant de quartier. Nous y allons souvent & nous prenons toujours l'assiette de pieuvre & l'assiette de poisson! C'est toujours excellent & l'ambiance est geniale. Les serveurs sont très aimable & la musique est vraiment bonne. Je recommande assurément.

We've had Aquinta a total of 3 times in the past 2 years as a family - every time as a takeout family combo meal to share. The first two times were honestly just not impressive, sometimes dry, sometimes lacking flavor

This year however, on Saturday June 20th 2026 specifically, we had it one more time & it was by far the best Portuguese chicken/meal we've all had by FAR. Everything was beautifully seasoned. The chicken was moist, seasoned throughout & nicely charred. The ribs were tender & juicy. I don't know what changed or who was working at opening that day but it was so good. If they can maintain that level of quality consistently we'll be ordering way more often in the future. Keep up the great work.
