I placed an order via DoorDash…but my order came incorrect. I called the store directly and they immediately sent the correct order! Not only that…they called me after the delivery to confirm my order was correct! Amazing customer service!!

This charming, family-owned establishment truly exceeded all expectations, delivering an absolutely delightful dining experience. I savored every bite of the perfectly grilled skirt steak, accompanied by crispy French fries that were seasoned to perfection - a decision to forgo the rice that I certainly did not regret. It was, without a doubt, the ideal lunch that hit precisely the right spot. The service was equally outstanding, with our waitress being an absolute gem. Her friendly demeanor and witty humor added an extra layer of enjoyment to our meal, making us feel genuinely welcome and cared for. Her attentiveness and warm personality truly elevated the entire dining experience. What truly set this place apart was its unique ambiance, striking a harmonious balance between the efficie

Excellent Portuguese food! Tastes homemade and everything from the steak to the fish is very high quality. Very friendly staff as well providing excellent service.

7 minutes from the airport, only the highway and one street to get here. 5 stars for delicious Portuguese food and for the service. We had the manager serving us who was 5 stars; friendly and she noticed what we needed. She correctly recommended the pork stew with second choice of the cod. Pork stew was great, $12.95, served in a hot metal bowl, pork on the bone, cabbage that soaked in the sauce, beans, rice on the side. Almost everyone else at other tables had the cod. Everything is a large portion. Some patrons and servers only spoke Portuguese, lots of construction workers.
