We walked in to a smell of wet dish rags and seafood, wonderful indeed. Aside from our waiter, who was very accommodating, the rest of the staff were just bad at their job. Dishes were piled up at the table for 20 minutes until the waiter picked them up, Water was warm until we asked for ice. The sangria took almost 15 minutes to come out. As an appetizer I ordered fried calamari which were all tentacles and took about 20 minutes to arrive. Of the 4 entrees ordered 2 were good, the other two were bad. The seafood dish which was rice of one plate and shellfish in a broth in another bowl came out unbelievably salty, as if it was poured in. This the waiter had told us was a common and unfortunate occurrence. The other, Portuguese Steak, tasted okay even if the meat used was a poor cut. However, a few hours later that night I vomited up everything of that steak. For 2 days I was subject to food poisoning. Avoid this place.

This is my wife and my Wednesday date nite spot. Service is amazing, the food spot on and reliably great. My wife and I fell in love with many dishes including the portugese sauce on the the steak. We now get it on the side and use it on everything. Although basic by description the grilled items (chicken, ribs etc) are anything but basic. The wood coal kisses the meat with an amazing flavor that is traditional in portugese fair. They also have a nice selction of portugese wines. Servers are willing to share descriptions for those not familiar witht this fair. We originally found this place on groupon and have been coming for over a year. I for full bar. got to mention its family friendly and also has a

My wife and I had been here many times in the past and enjoyed their food. However this time walking in i was punched in the face with a milldue odor and upon eating my hanger steak was raw rather than medium rarer which made me lose my apatite. While my wifes sea food dish was filled with grit as if they didnt even clean the shell fish before preparing her meal. This restaurant has lost it.

A little pricey. Mostly fish, chicken and pork done from a Portuguese perspective. Good flavors and not overly spicy. The bar area has natural light and you can watch a game. This section has tables for two or sit at the bar. This feels a little more relaxed and fun, but you cant seat large groups. The dining room is conservative and a little dated.
