★★★★★ 5.0 Patrick Inge · Jan 2026

Rose understands food, and everything she serves is very real. the green beans are cooked fresh every order with garlic and olive oil, complete with a show of flames bouncing around as she effortlessly flips them over in the pan. Extra small juicy chickens are cooked right in front of you complete with her own special sauce. The smell of this chicken is how we became friends. The salad has always been fresh, simple, and delicious. Complete with dressing made in house. no packets or premade anything. the fries are cut potatoes in water ready to go in the fryer The food here is genuinely delicious. The woman is a hard working single mother doing her very best to introduce the portugese culture, and herself to the world. She remains a bright shining light among the lifeless, corporate, chain

★★★★★ 5.0 Bee Grant-Davis · Jan 2025

Upon reading the reviews, I was delighted to discover that Portuguese cuisine was nearby! I was stationed near Portugal and enjoyed the food when I visited. Rose, the owner and chef, reminds me of home--she is funny, lively, and authentic. She is as enjoyable as the meals she creates. Since dining the first time, I returned twice in one week, then on at least a biweekly basis. My husband and family are hooked, too! The food is fresh, delicious, and affordable. While we repeatedly consumed the 1/4 dark chicken, beef pastry, green beans, cod fritters, and rice--we've only just begun--we plan to sample everything she offers. The staff is warm and professional. The atmosphere is simple, clean, and comfortable. Head to Little Portugal now!

★★★★☆ 4.0 Don Gerdts · May 2025

Great little spot for no frills, Portuguese-inspired food. Very clean place with attentive service. This was our first exposure to Portuguese food. The chicken was prepared well, and I enjoyed both the chicken and ground beef empanadas. Fresh salad on the side.

Always delicious, fresh, and flavorful with excellent service! Every bite is packed with flavor and tastes like it was cooked with love, can’t wait to go back :)

The staff was so nice and the chicken was amazing! Fries were perfectly salted and fried, green beans were delicious. We also had a milk custard tart which was phenomenal. Will definitely come back
