J J Restaurant & Takeout is a hidden gem that offers delicious and well-priced food. The service is friendly, and the atmosphere is cozy, though it is located in the back part of a convenience store. Standout dishes include the charcoal grilled chicken with peri peri sauce, cod, and seafood stew. The grilled chicken is especially recommended as it is super tasty and comes with flavorful peri peri garlic sauce that enhances any dish. Portions are huge, making it a great value for money. While some dishes may be oily or overcooked, the overall charm of this place and the authentic Portuguese food create a satisfying experience that feels like home. The mains are simple, featuring grilled meats and basic sides like white rice, fries, and house salad. The restaurant even has a TV on, adding to the classic Portuguese experience.
