About

Ferreira Café delivers an authentic exploration of Portuguese coastal traditions through a meticulous focus on fresh seafood and imported Mediterranean ingredients. The menu centers on expertly prepared salt cod, succulent grilled octopus, and daily catches finished with high-quality olive oil and sea salt. Each dish emphasizes the natural integrity of the raw components, reflecting the rugged and vibrant culinary landscape of the Iberian Peninsula. The atmosphere combines minimalist aesthetic choices with warm lighting to highlight the bustling activity of the kitchen and the bar. Patrons interact with a selection of regional vintages that complement the salinity and brightness found throughout the oceanic flavor profiles. Every plate serves as a direct representation of traditional preparation methods modernized for a contemporary culinary environment while maintaining respect for deep-rooted heritage.

Si je pouvais donner 20 étoiles à ce resto portugais je le ferais! Nous avons réservé pour les 18 ans de notre garçon & Sandra nous a accueillie comme si nous étions de la famille! Les petites attentions, cocktails surprises en arrivant, assiettes de desserts portugais, service impeccable jusqu'à M Ferreira qui est venu nous saluer! Cette soirée importante restera gravée grâce à vous! MERCI à la grande famille Ferreira pour ce merveilleux repas! Tout était parfait 👌🏻!

Petit conseil, vérifiez votre facture! Nous étions 6, 3 additions & 2 étaient erronées de $100 chacune. Le prix du vin n'est pas le même sur la facture & sur le menu!!! Bizarre car j'imagine que c'est déjà programmé! De plus le sourire absent de la fille du proprio!

Wonderful experience. We made reservations at 3pm while they were actually closing for the afternoon (their system error) & they still sat us. They were extremely warm & inviting despite the mixup. The ambiance was very nice. Think jazz bar meets fine dining. Our server suggested an amazing white wine. The food was unforgettable starting from the bread. The fried squid appetizer was exceptional. We shared the fresh red snapper & it was very good. However, the duck risotto was life changing. I'll definitely be back!!
