I loved the new decor, and the food is delicious.  Start with tapioca cubes, then Filet Mignon with Risotto . As dessert , Dulce de Leche Lava Cake . Excellent attendance.

The food is great, nice portugues food and ambience music , strongly recommend the shrimp in the garlic sauce ! Don't forget to eat it with the bread !

Lots of goodness on this menu. Clams bulhao pato, flambéed sausage and the seafood cataplana were all standouts. GREAT Portuguese wine list .

Carlo D'Caprio

The flan is homemade and soooo great. The clams on the half shell r the freshest and the bread is really good too especially when dipped in the shrimp in garlic sauce !!

Paula Buzzo
