Amazing from start to finish! Service was top notch. Delicious, authentic Portuguese selections. Bread & butters are a must. We loved the Porco Alentejana, a signature dish of Portugal. Meat was so tender! Morcela de Arroz was perfect! Octopus was delectable! Shrimp San Miguel was so flavorful- be sure to dip some bread in the molhos if all these dishes! Beautiful restaurant! We hope to return next time we come to NOLA.
