Absolutely loved the Pork steak, it reminded me of how my great grandma used to cook pork, the waiter was super friendly, shared stories about Portugal & food. Even suggested the best wine to go with all that delicious food. Highly recommended.

Entrées généreuses, calamars grillés avec une sauce délicieuse. Les sardines sont excellentes, 4 par portion. Le Pastel de Nata chaud servi avec cannelle, comme au portugal. Prix & service raisonnables.
Je viens d'y retourner 4 ans plus tard. Les portions sont généreuses, même trop un plat pour deux c'est suffisant. Les plats viennent avec une salade individuelle. C'est un endroit simple & tranquille. Dommage que les tentacules ne soient pas incluses dans le calmar grillé, c'est toujours un plus. Le poulet grillé est vraiment très bon. Je ne comprends pas ceux qui ont fait des commentaires très négatifs, la place est très bien & les plats somples & goûteux. Je laisse vos yeux apprécier !

Ce n'est pas un restaurant très rafiné niveau look, comparativement à des restos portugais cher mais, ça a une touche d'authenticité. Ça rappel bien un voyage au Portugal. La nourriture est bonne & le décor est bien. Le poulet est délicieux & les frites sont bien croustillantes. Les plats sont aussi bon que directement au Portugal

Le restaurant est super. Même à la fermeture je m'y suis rendu avec ma copine & Nelson a accepté de nous accueillir pour manger.🔥🔥🔥. Il nous a donné une leçon d'histoire sur le Portugal 🇵🇹. Belle expérience .

Big fan of Portugal, we've tested yesterday this restaurant that was well noted. Honestly, even though I like Portuguese food, the chicken was awfully dry, the fries were there to fill your stomach than anything & the wine was flat
