    We love this restaurant, the food is fresh, authentic, and innovative. We had the best server, Justin, he made sure we we always had what we needed, gave us time to order, was prompt with our food and drinks. Needless to say to say, we had a wonderful experience and definitely recommend!

    The atmosphere and the fun live cultural music was nice. Dinning area was so beautiful it’s nice to bring your mother, family, friends, and romantic relationships. The food was amazing and the live music was so nice it feel like your in the Caribbean or on a cruise.

    Cute spot for great Portuguese staples! Was very impressed by the Bitoque beef with chips. The chimichurri chicken didn't have enough chimichurri sauce but the garlic veggies were delish!! Comfortable atmosphere and good for larger groups with a reservation. Also have a great outdoor patio with heaters. Will come back to try more appetizers and for their happy hour!

    Very nice Portuguese restaurant. We ordered a kid plate because I was not hungry so the portion would be small and the ribs with shrimps. Everything was well made and tasty!! The desserts are delicious and traditional.

    Where to start? We have our Christmas party here and everyone always enjoys it! Food is awesome - where else can you eat octopus, flaming chorizo, seafood, steaks and paella and so many more specially prepared dishes? The variety available on the menu is fantastic! Great Portuguese red wine and great service by Gabriel means we'll be back to visit often!

    We had a wonderful dinner there while traveling through the area. The atmosphere was wonderful, very clean and well maintained. Loved the tables with the thick natural wood. The service and food was wonderful. The "Polvo A Brasa Com Camarao" (Octopus and Shrimp with potatoes) was a huge serving and prepared to my liking. My wife enjoyed the Medalhao Com Risotto (Beef medallions with risotto) while my daughter enjoyed the Picanha Skewer (Steak served with rice, farofa and salad). Everything about this experience made us happy about this choice as we passed through CT on our way to Mass. Hope to be back soon. ps- The live music on a Thurs evening made it really festive too!

    New favorite watering hole and food place. Great ambiance, the most attentive staff you could ever find. They have outside sitting and the Portuguese food is to die for. Here you can see The Paella Valenciana, the Caldo Verde with Brocolli Rabe and the Branzino. Delicious Caipirindas and a great selection of beers and imported drinks. Highly recommend!!
