At a summary, we ordered the grilled whole chicken, with rice & potatoes as sides, as well as grilled quarter dinner. Normally, I'm not a big fan of grilled chicken, especially the white meat as most often it's dry, but the chicken here were not only tender, but vastly flavorful. Yes, the white meat was a tad on the dry side but combined with the sauce & the saffron rice you barely noticed. The sides were amazing too, and boy was I glad I got rice (despite my asian tendencies to ALWAYS MAKE RICE AT HOME) the rice was extremely flavorful and did a great job to enhance the chicken in tandem, without over powering anything. The potatoes were also still slightly crispy and amazingly fluffy on the inside. The definition of a local gem!

But the food was a bit of a let down. I ordered my steak medium rare and it came out over cooked. It wasn't burnt or anything but it was closer to well done than medium rare. My wife ordered the grilled octopus. It had a weird consistency throughout. The edges did have some nice charring to it though.

However, it says it comes with fries, so I wasn't aware I could have had two different sides instead. The waitress never explained that. I was told this as they were telling me that the first steak was overdone because they had so many orders at once, there were a total of 4 tables with people, including us. If they can't handle orders for four tables at once they shouldn't be in the business. We won't be going back, not the best Portuguese food out there.

I was craving for the shrimp patties and the only good ones were usually downtown. I found Galina's Bbq via Yelp, so I knew I had to get some to try. I got the whole chicken dinner and I was AMAZED at the portions! For under $50, they legit packed the rice and potatoes to the top! Everything was super tasty but the shrimp patties could had been better if I reheated it in the oven. The chicken was super moist and the potatoes were so delicious. The rice was a bit too salty though. Service was great; the waitress told me her aunt opened this restaurant more than 10 years ago. The restaurant was clean and spacious, but definitely not super big. I would definitely come back for more!!

We arrived for a late lunch on a Sunday, the dining area was empty so we got to pick of tables. We ordered two appetizers, three entrees and a drink. The meal started out well, with some bread, butter and preserved olives. It was lovely to have something to nibble on while waiting. 30 min later, the appetizer of chirizo sausage arrived. It was set alight table side, and we enjoyed the crispy hot sausage. Unfortunately, it took another 30min for our entrees to arrive. My chicken dinner was not even warm, the veggies were overcooked and cold. The only thing hot on my plate was the potatoes, which were delicious. After such a long wait, it was disappointing to be served cold food. Also, our second appetizer never came and we had to remind the waiter not to bill us for it.

Besides bread you get black & green olives to snack on. Surf and turf came with steak, 1 large prawn (given its size, it wasn't shrimp) & clams. The sauce for all 3 was a rather unusual spice blend that was pretty tasty & the prawn was pretty fresh. The chips the dish came with were greasy & not crispy though. Minho style codfish is fried. We had the grilled codfish. It was huge. It was so-so, though on the firm side & it was very hard the next day. Their desserts are cheap. The pudding is home made, but custard from heaven isn't. The pudding was dense & eggy, but had a very strong burnt, bitter taste, especially the bottom, which was black. The server said it was due to lemon zest, but it seems someone put way too much.

I had their Bifana sandwich, a Portuguese style grilled pork with caramelized onions on a fresh bun. It was a rustic sandwich with good flavour. My friend had the Chicken Caesar Wrap and that looked and tasted good. Of course, we couldn't be in a pastry shop without trying their delicious looking pastries. A pineapple topped bun caught my eye with its bright yellow colour. It was delicious and I ate the whole thing! My companion had a selection of pastries, mostly chosen by her young daughter. They were good, too! Tina's Portuguese Cuisine shares the space with them, offering more substantial meals. They specialize in Portuguese chicken and other favourites, with catering available. My friend tried their Shepherd's Pie. It was a generous serving that resulted in leftovers. While I usually prefer a more substantial meal for lunch, this food was good. I'll definitely come back for their fresh breads and pastries!
