Customer Reviews
Tony Da Caneca is an absolute must-visit for anyone who appreciates extraordinary service, authentic Portuguese cuisine, and an exceptional wine selection. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism, setting the stage for a truly memorable dining experience. The highlight of our meal was the octopus appetizer—perfectly tender and bursting with flavor. The flaming sausage added a fun and interactive element to the evening, both delicious and entertaining. And then came dessert—an indulgent triple chocolate masterpiece that was nothing short of heavenly. Paired with rich, aromatic Portuguese coffee, it was the perfect ending to a flawless meal. Tony Da Caneca exceeded all expectations, and we can't wait to return. Highly recommend for anyone looking to sa
First time here and I will say that the service & ambiance was great! The food was cooked to perfection. And attention to detail. Can’t wait to go back to try different dishes!
I had to update this. This place is now owned by new owners. I been a faithful customer for 20+ years. It’s sad to say that even though they have done a wonderful job renovating the place . The food quality has gone out the window with cheap quality food grade, from the prepackaged refrigerator grade calamari to skipping out on the traditional soup or salad before you appetizers. This is now a mix blend restaurant of Brazilian and Portuguese cuisine . Which is a non traditional and a modern mix . That lacks the real authentic Portuguese cuisine experience. The desert menu is completely prepackaged stuff from Nastos ice cream shop . They’re not even trying to prepare something fresh & authentic. To top it off they raised the prices on everything while lacking the quality of the original own
