Portuguese Restaurants near Oak Brook, IL

“I’ve been wanting to come here since Niall Horan (ex-one direction) said this was his favorite restaurant! Very delicious!“

“I tried Vasco’s Peri Peri for lunch and was blown away by the Two Tenders Rice Bowl. Tons of flavor, generous portions, and the chicken was cooked perfectly. It’s hard to beat a fresh, hot meal like this for under $11. Perfect quick lunch option Monday through Friday!“

“Had an awesome experience here and definitely coming back.

Everything is fresh and cooked to order, which you can really taste. The chicken came out hot, juicy, and perfectly grilled with that nice char flavor you want from peri-peri. Nothing felt pre-made or sitting around — they clearly make it when you order.

The service was fast and super friendly too. Staff was welcoming, helpful with recommendations, and kept things moving quickly even during busy time.

The real stars though are the sauces:
• 🌶️ Medium spicy peri-peri sauce – perfect heat level with tons of flavor
• 🧄 Garlic sauce – creamy, rich, and absolutely addictive

Get both on the side — trust me, you’ll want extra for dipping everything.

Overall: great food, quick service, and amazing flavor. Highly recommend if you’re craving fresh, flavorful grilled chicken done right.“
