Inventive, high-end take on Portuguese food. Beautifully presented. A robust wine list to pair with the scrumptious offerings.

Food was good, but missed the depth of Portugal gastronomy. Breads were not warm, olive 🫒 oil nice. Some part of the service was confusing, do we keep the plate or not? Came as big group but staff was eager to help

Really delicious way to experience Portuguese cuisine. The seafood is fresh & well prepared & the tapas dishes are so creative. Also, one of the most beautiful restaurants I've ever seen. & get the Portuguese tart for dessert!

I cannot recommend Helena's any more. Truly authentic Portuguese fare but with the sophistication & care of a veteran restaurateur. As a person with Portuguese roots, I was impressed & satisfied. The caldo verde tastes like my grandmothers. It ain't cheap but you do get what you pay for.
