★★★★☆ 4.0 Kimberly Andrade · Jan 2026

Formerly TJs , this is a great little Cape Verdean/Portuguese restaurant. They have many classic dishes that represent both countries. The service was very attentive by our waitress including the chef. He wanted to make sure everything was ok. We came for lunch so we ordered sandwiches. the grilled chicken sando and I got a side of Mozambique sauce for dipping 🤤😋. Had I been hungrier I would have definitely opted for the Cape Verdean dishes they offer. My only criticism is the ambiance. There is an identity crisis happening. Plastic table clothes and cloth chair covers make the atmosphere seem like we are at a cheap event hall, then the bar area gives off sports bar vibes. It's also a little dark inside so I'm not sure if I should be eating or having a few drinks at the bar while watching

My husband and I went for dinner this week. The food was wonderful. It was served hot and FULL of flavor. The Portuguese soup was one of the best I’ve ever had. My husband had the steak with the egg and I had the shrimp Mozambique, both were amazing. Drinks were good too. Prices aren’t bad. We will definitely be back. I strongly encourage others to try this hidden gem.

-3 fish N chips, and all said that their fish was dry N over cooked. -spaghetti was over cooked w/frozen meatballs. -chicken kbobs dinner were delicious N perfectly cooked. Been several times before. Huge amounts for the price N everything was FANTASTIC. Maybe just an off day, we all have had them, so can they. Will retry again in a week or so.

I had the pleasure of eating here for the first time last month and it was worth the trip from Brockton to Taunton! Me being Capeverdean, I felt right at home here with the food that I was served. I had chicken with natas sauce, salad and white rice. It was cooked to perfection and the portion was large. I also recommend their flan as well! The customer service was great and they're a family owned business! - SheCallsMeJuvi (YouTuber)
