We were a foursome who stopped in on a Sunday evening and O Lavrador did not disappoint! Firstly, the music was AMAZING! I ended up asking what Spotify playlist they were playing and they made sure to share the link with us. The soundtrack served as a GREAT backdrop to even GREATER food! I ordered the lamb chops (pictured) which were so tender, juicy, and full of flavor. We also ordered the pork tenderloins and clams in a brown sauce (pictured) which was equally as delicious as well as the lobster paelha (pictured). Everything was delicious! Special shoutout to our server G, she was on point (ask for her)!

I was in unexpected need to find a place to pass some time by in the area and was looking for a place to sit and lunch. Mind you, I was with my niece, we were not dressed the best, wearing flip flops - (this really was an unexpected event). The reason to share this is that we went in and the staff was professional, made us feel welcomed - I was relieved! The ambiance of the restaurant was elegant, with charm. The food was delicious. Some shrimp with garlic sauce, a skirt steak cooked to perfection. Simple roasted potatoes and veggies... Cheesecake and a cappuccino and we were more than satisfied! Many thanks to the staff here for making a bit of a stressful day most pleasant! PS having their own parking lot in the neighborhood was definitely a perk!

Came here for the first time for a family dinner and it did not disappoint! Staff were so nice and helpful. Place is nice and clean and they do have outdoor seating as well. But since it was hot we sat inside. StarTed with drinks and appetizers. I ordered the passion fruit caipirinha and it was so refreshing. For appetizers we ordered the sausage, grilled octopus and shrimp. For main course we ordered a seafood platter to share, paella and beef with seafood as well. It was a nice dinner and really enjoyed the food. Would definitely come back. It's a good family place.

We had dinner at this Portuguese restaurant in Queens. There were some hits and misses. We ordered the grilled calamari which was a bit rubbery. The Special of the Day was a grilled to perfection Bronzino. The winning shrimp with saffron rice was delicious. The codfish and chick pea salad needed some diced tomatoes and cucumbers on a bed of lettuce and. Much less oil.The flan tasted more like custard to me but the family enjoyed it.

Hey O.
I really really enjoyed my time at this restaurant. I came in for my birthday today. Our server was a man with a ponytail and another lovely lady with a blonde ponytail. They made my time so special. They sang happy birthday to me and gave me a beautifully decorated slice of cake. The food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the salmon and it was so fresh, tender and browned beautifully. The potatoes, bread and appetizers were also very delicious. I had a great time. THANK YOU SO MUCH to the BLOND LADY who ran outside and gave me the Polaroid I left behind of my parents. That meant a lot to me. Thank you all!

First time, have yo say the staff was very welcoming. Had a reservation so was seated right away, ordered drinks which wasn't all that, that's why I'm giving them a 4star. Could have done better on the drinks. Or ur food didn't take very long to come, but boy oh boy. The food was definitely delicious.

Food was delicious, the linguini lobster shrimp a bit too spicy, but generous. All the plates ordered were very good and tasty. A little dissatisfied with the sangria pitcher, it used to be larger than what it is served now. We love the mojitos , we were able to order two glasses only and they didn't have anymore! Bummer because it was still early in the evening. Overall good food

Terrible restaurant. They sent me the wrong order and then send they would send me the correct one. Then retracted the statement and said I wanted was no longer available. The man who took my order is obviously not capable of doing his job. They sent me $85 worth of food I did not want and forgot someone I ordered
First time here celebrating a friends birthday. We made reservations a week ago. They checked our ID and Vaccinations cards at the entrance. All staff members were wearing face mask The place was clean and welcoming Everything was delicious. Drinks that's were ordered: Strawberry margarita Mojitos I feel like we ordered a little of everything: Appetizers-Spicy shrimp, regular shrimp, octopus, baked clams, calamari, And a small plate of paella Main dishes: Filet mignon, fish, lamb chops, and ribeye Downside: I ordered my mignon medium it and rare! They didn't charge me for it and I got a free dessert everything else was phenomenal Dessert: We obviously ordered one of everything The serradura was AMAZING. I ordered two! Our waiter was beyond kind and took our orders with care. I would definitely recommend this place

Came in with a Groupon and was given attitude about what I can and can't get. They were so rude and I couldn't keep quiet. I was rude back and that is when I learned never be rude to people serving you food. I got food poisoning from this place. I will never eat there again..not even for free

Second time trying. The red sangria is delicious! Order a pitcher, or 2, or 3. You won't regret it! Didn't order appetizers this time around. But I ordered the Seafood Paella. It was just okay. Not very flavorful. I added a little more seasonings to my leftovers when I got home. My friends enjoyed their dishes. Will come back and try other things as they have a very large menu. Staff is very friendly and accommodating

The pulpo is delish. Fresh bread. Good caipiriñas, good wine selection. Lovely interior!
