   Really enjoyed this Portuguese restaurant! The olive tree in the middle of the restaurant was brought all the way from Portugal and really makes the place feel special and authentic. Food was great, as always since I've been lucky enough to visit their other locations in Miami. For appetizer, we enjoyed the grilled Portuguese Sardines with Toast and the grilled calamari seared in Garlic Sauce. Both were delicious! I highly recommend you also try the flaming Portuguese Sausage that I've had in previous occasions- it is to die for! For the main course, I personally had the Seafood Stew with Shrimp, Clams, Mussels, Calamari and Fish. Being Colombian, I had to order a side of rice to go with my dish. My husband truly enjoyed the Skirt Steak, served with Fries. Our friends had the Parrilhada De Mariscos (grilled seafood mix) and the grilled sea bass. When I go back, I will definitely be ordering the Bacalhau Com Natas, which I've had before and it's excellent! You can't go wrong with anything on their menu. Their desserts are also unbelievable. Last night we had the traditional Pasteis De Nata (Cream Custard Pastries - Portugal's most known Pastry) and chocolate mousse which was rich and super tasty! Wonderful service and great atmosphere, a lively place, but you can still hold a conversation with your table. If you haven't tried Portuguese food, this is a must, a great addition to the Aventura area!

   My wife had some version of Cod fish. It was terrible and she ended up not eating it. I had a strip steak which was 20% fat & gristle. In addition, it was suppose to be medium rare and came out close to raw. The waitress, without being asked, who saw that my wife wouldn't touch her meal, spoke with the manager who in turn removed it from our bill. After that, I didn't have the heart to complain about my steak. We just chalked it up to a bad experience and won't return to the restaurant again. Sad way to end Valentines Day!

   excellent restaurant, good wine list. excellent service. We had the Codfish croquettes and grilled shrimps as appetizers and we shared the grilled seafood platter with lobster. Everything was wonderful and excellent sizes. The excellent server suggested a white wine, very young, very good. And the place was quiet, so we could also have a nice conversation.
