Review Summary

Chez Doval feels like a warm, authentic Portuguese spot where seafood and charcoal grilled dishes shine, with grilled sardines and lamb chops drawing praise and generous portions at good value. The menu celebrates classic Portuguese favorites such as carne de porco a alentejana and a variety of seafood, and the friendly staff create a welcoming, lively vibe that many describe as relaxed and convivial. The wine list is solid and the occasional Porto shot adds a nice touch, complementing simple, flavorful preparations that emphasize quality over fuss. Diners appreciate the unpretentious atmosphere, reliable service, and the sense of tradition that comes through in both the food and the hospitality, making it a favorite for casual lunches and dinners alike.

Always impresses me when a restaurant has stood the test of time. This establishment has been here for what I understand to be close to 50 years. My first visit was almost 40 years ago! This 3rd ownership group continues the fine tradition, & has been doing so for well over 20 years. The grilled spicy chicken is sublime, served with house fries & tangy mixed salad. We started it all off with grilled calamari & octopus. Compliment it with some white wine, espresso with natas, & you can't go wrong. Desfrute de sua refeiçao!

Have been coming to this restaurant for over 30 years & still love it. Serving delicious Portuguese grilled chicken, lamb, fish & steak cooked in a large brick oven that you can see if you sit on the rustic & boisterous side (good for groups). If you want an experience with softer lighting & white table clothes, there is a quieter side fit for a romantic dinner for two or family/friends who want to enjoy a quieter conversation. Prices are still very reasonable, for our inflationary times. For that alone, it merits 5 stars!

Dined here many times over the years. It's good at what it does, doesn't try to be what it's not. Tasty grilled stuff & who doesn't enjoy a little fado music while sipping on a some porto after a hearty meal?
