The front of the restaurant is for take out customers, while the dining room is in the back. The waiter didn't give us any menu, because chargrilled chicken is all they serve! Not much choice for sides either - salads and fries, take it or leave it. No apologies. It's interesting to see big families having dinner here, hard to imagine, for an American, that they can all manage to be satisfied with the same dish, without some diet or preference in the way. As you can imagine, for a restaurant like this, they do one thing and do it really good. Tender chicken with a wonderful chargrilled flavor. My husband loves grilled chicken so this is like the 4th chicken place we visited on the trip, and this one is the clear winner. The fries and salad are just meh though.

Lagartos( black pork), I had better ones, skip it. Service was okay, not sure why they asked me to wait for 15 minutes when I was the only customer for takeout and it was not peak time. The ambiance was decent , I scoped the dining area and nothing fancy. Happy that I finally checked it out but I will stick with the other churrasqueria close by.

Biased as he may have been (because it's very close to his house), I thought to myself, "Listen to the local." And I'm glad I made my way over. The 1/2 chicken was served quickly, was flavourful, could feed a small family of three (the third being a baby) and only cost a mere €6.50. Parking could be tricky, but there's a giant mall across the street where you can dump your vehicle. The menu has an English translation, and the server was friendly and fast. It's one of those places that charge, if you touch the bread, olives, etc. that they place in front of you. So, if you touch and eat, don't be a stupid tourist and complain...because you've been warned.

It is located in a quaint fisherman's town, about 15 minute drive from where we stayed in Portimao. There were 5 of us, and we are a group of sharers. We ordered the fried sardines and friend prawns as an appetizer, absolutely delicious! I am not a sardine eater, but so glad I tried. Would eat again! For dinner we shared the shellfish cataplana, monkfish rice, and a whole grilled sea bass. Everything was absolutely delicious! The sea bass was beautifully cooked on the grill and filleted at the table. Bruno was our host, he was very helpful and friendly with guiding us and explaining the meals. He was very funny as well! We enjoyed everything from start to finish. We ended the meal with a lovely port wine.
