The Cockatoo Portuguese Restaurant

The best food ever!! Suzan makes all of her food with love!! We had the Fried Calamari that was just to start and got better from there!! Out of bounds! I had the Portuguese Steak sandwich, what flavor! The lobster roll had an abundance of lobster and cooked perfectly. The Fried Clams were so succulent and so were the fried Scallops! What a gracious owner ❤️ She took great care of us and now we can’t wait to go back!!

This is a small family run farm to table restaurant. Beautifully situated at the head of a bay, the garden is beside the restaurant. Bloody Mary was good and heavily garnished with bacon, shrimp, cucumbers, olives and cocktail onions and celery. Food was fresh, harvested from the sea themselves and Chef can cook. I recommend highly.

This is by far the best seafood place! Everything fresh from the land and really authentic Portuguese recipe’s, I feel at home! The owner is the best and the service is superb! We’ll be back!!!❤️

This is what I texted to my significant other after we ate there a few weeks ago... this was my completely candid reaction as an amateur chef who generally doesn't like going out to eat: "I like that kind of restaurant and that kind of restaurant owner... I'd work there! Providing a memorable experience for customers was her first priority. She does this with GREAT food, and backs it up with family-style hospitality and can-do attitudes from all staff. You could also tell she was friends with the employees. My ideal restaurant experience."

The mussels were fantastic. And the Portuguese steak sandwich was phenomenal. Fresh seafood and fresh salad all from within a couple hundred yards. The Pistachio cake was amazing!! Fresh bread every day. Such a great spot. And the food just can’t beat it!
