★★★★★ 5.0 James J Carotenuti · Aug 2025

I can't believe I haven't been here before now. The food is amazing and everyone is so friendly. I'm blown away. Also, I am extremely picky when it comes to beer. I'll only drink 5 different beers, and they have one of them. I've come here 3 times this week. I love it.

Very good service. Our waiter was nice and friendly. They had sagres beer . The Portuguese soup was tasty. The grilled cod was Ok. They're Brad was really really good. Overall, I will give it a 5 stars

★★★★★ 5.0 Kenneth Johnson · Jun 2025

Authentic Azorean cuisine! Must try the Chicharros (Stickleback Fish), packed with flavor! Raw Littlenecks on the Half Shell for a starter are a great price compared to other local restaurants. Free Papo Seco's (Portuguese Bread) and butter basket. Get a house bottle of wine to share, it is worth it. They offer a side salad or soup with most dishes. Their Bife à Casa (House Steak) is packed w/ flavor, heavy on the garlic and delicious. The Carne de porco à Alentejana (Pork & Clams w/ Potatoes) is good too, but the pork is usually a little dry. Sandwiches are a great price for what you get. Don't forget to add some of the House Steak sauce to dip your fries! Overall 8.5/10. Dining room is typically a little warm for comfort, but other than that it is clean and servers are prompt.

The people are friendly, I had a great Portuguese meal there. I ordered the pork and little necks, the meal was delicious! It’s perfect for a night out with a girlfriend or a wife, or family. There’s lots to do in the area and clubs as well. I can recommend them.
