Just took my family here. It was our first time having Portuguese or Brazilian food and it was hands down a incredible experience. The staff was wonderful. You can tell this was made with love. Will recommend

Excellent, well-prepared food, and plenty of it. This place is just fantastic! It's an unpretentious Portuguese restaurant, family run. The young woman waiting on us was so kind and attentive. We ordered a steak dish, a seafood paella, and a seafood stew, to share among three people. It could have easily fed five, well. Everything was perfectly cooked, but especially, the seafood was not overcooked, which meant it was tender and delicious. We will definitely be back soon.

Food and dessert were delicious. You can order food from the menu or choose the hot/salad buffet and pay it by the weight. Service was nice. The Portuguese lady was our waitress, she struck the perfect balance between attentiveness and giving us space and she was also quick to answer our questions about the menu. I would definitely go back there.

We were in the area and found The Portuguese on Google Maps. We walked in and were greeted and the man explained all the options of different pastels, pastries, take out and sit in choices. The food was warm and delicious, and the energy from the workers were so warm, kind and happy. Weβll definitely be back!

Will write review at later date! Good looks delicious. π€€
My wife and I came on a Friday night at 6pm. No one was dining there. Itβs very bright in there not offering any ambience. No music. Felt very sterile but we wanted to try it. We ordered the Paella. The young waitress, who was the daughter of one of the owners was so kind and friendly. She brought out a basket of bread and a bowl of pickled olives and carrots. We talked about Portugal where she was born and how the restaurant was doing. I asked about music and she said the system was not working. The wait for the paella was fairly long, but we were in no rush and Iβm glad they were taking their time preparing it. She brought us a second basket of bread and the pickled carrots which had a lovely oil to dip the bread in. When the paella came out, it was served in a cast-iron pan that had enough food for three people. It was absolutely delicious and all that we hoped for. Generous amount of seafood and delicious rice. We spent the next hour enjoying it and talking with our waitress. During the hour, a few other people came in and left, but otherwise it seemed unusually quiet for Friday night. I think if they try to create some more ambience with less bright lighting, they will draw more of a dining crowd. We will certainly go back, but as far as a dining out experience with friends, probably less so unless the ambience became warmer and more inviting. It wouldnβt take much to do so. But if their other dishes on their extensive menu are as good as the paella, hopefully they will be successful.

A welcome difference from the pricey, touristy restaurants of Falmouth. We enjoyed the freshly prepared Portuguese-influenced seafood dinners. The sauces have depth and a careful preparation that tastes like someone's Grandma made them. Everyone in the restaurant is kind, friendly, and welcoming. Took home a few of the beautiful deserts to sample later.

I would like to speak to the owner
Good food, got a seafood dish that was enough to feed two. Got some very nice before dinner items on the house. Service was a bit slow but the server was very attentive.
