I was recently in Portugal and fell in love with the country and its beautiful culture, so finding a Portuguese market in New England was a great surprise. As soon as I walked in I felt transported to Portugal. The staff speaking Portuguese, the seafood, the oils, the sweets... it was almost like I was back in the Iberian peninsula. It was overwhelming, honestly, but in the best possible way. This place had it all! It had fresh produce, meats, fish (including cod!), sweets, and a separate section for coffee. I got some of their pasteis de nata and although they were not as good as the ones in Lisbon, they definitely fulfilled my cravings. I also got a latte which was phenomenal. The people working here were very sweet and welcoming. If you're in Lowell or passing by, I'd definitely stop by Valentina's Portuguese Market.

All the food we ordered was delicious. My sister in law thinks they got a new cook. I'm from out of town so I'm unsure. I just know the last few visits here were not great. Maybe it was my food choices. All I can say is last nights food choices were great. I really enjoyed their calamari and octopus the most. You can never go wrong with the Portuguese sausage. The octopus special was a 10/10. Very fresh. Loved how well the octopus was grilled. Perfect amount of onions, peppers, and garlic. The potatoes were well made. I would definitely recommend this dish. The restaurant itself is spacious. Plenty of seating available. They have a great bar. I highly recommend their espresso martinis.

For an appetizer we tried the Pastel de Bacalau (Cod Cakes, 10 for $10). These DELIGHTFUL treats along with the wonderful sourdough bread and butter with wine fueled some good conversation in anticipation of a GREAT MEAL. For entrees we chose Mariscos a Failense (Fish Stew, $19), Polvo Asado (Grilled Octopus, $19), Lulas Grelhada (Grilled Squid, $17) and Dourada (Grilled Sea Bream, $17). All of the entrees were cooked and presented PERFECTLY. Everyone enjoyed their main dishes very much. For dessert, we shared 2 Spumonis, cut in half for 4 ($8).

You can really taste the family influence and authenticity behind every dish -- it feels like home, but with a fun twist. The Prego no Pão is one of my favorites -- perfectly seasoned steak on soft bread with that classic Portuguese comfort, but elevated in a way that keeps me coming back. We also can't get enough of the seafood dishes -- especially the paella and grilled octopus -- and the chouriço always brings that familiar Portuguese flavor I grew up with. The small plates are perfect for sharing, and trying different things each time has been so much fun. Plus, the touches of Mexican flavor throughout the menu just make my heart happy. The cocktails are always a hit -- fresh, flavorful, and so well-balanced. On top of all that, the décor is beautiful, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the touches of their family history all over make it so charming. Everything from the food to the drinks to the overall vibe is just excellent. Great addition to the city and one of our favorite spots I will add I have also gone with a baby, and while it's not stroller friendly they staff were very kind and patient with a baby learning to eat and making a little bit of a mess
