Review Summary

Jano delivers comforting Portuguese flavors with generous portions at reasonable prices, creating a welcoming family friendly vibe that keeps diners coming back. The menu shines with well executed items such as grilled chicken, sardines, calamari, pork steak and Pastel de Nata served warm with cinnamon, all backed by a reliable friendly service that makes guests feel at home and even shares little stories from Portugal. The homemade chips are a standout, as are the sauces and carefully prepared meats that can be ordered to suit the appetite. The atmosphere is casual and authentic, with simple decor and a sense of being part of the neighborhood. This combination of hearty food, attentive service, and value makes Jano a dependable choice for meals with family or friends.

The chicken leg is hands down the best I’ve had - always so tender & tasty! If you haven’t tried Portuguese chicken, this is definitely the place to go. You also definitely need to get a Nata dessert to top it all off - they’re not too heavy & just the right amount of custardy yumminess! :)
