Price Description

The floral tiles and blue tablecloths in this authentic Portuguese taverna lend a banquet-hall flavour. Families and locals dip into a menu equally divided between meat dishes (grilled sausage, roast suckling pig, veal chops) and fish (cod, grouper, sea bass, red snapper). A seafood menu of clams, steamed crab and mussels is also popular, as are the Portuguese-speaking wait staff, who nostalgically transport patrons back to the old country. Mains $9–$19.
