10/10 some of the best food ..a hidden gem if you will! Love this place ! My fave is the steak with shrimp and a baked potato! The grilled pork chops amazing , lamb amazing, pretty much never had a bad meal here ever!
April 2025
Very nice Portuguese establishment. Best Paella. Overall food is delicious. Last time I visited ordered codfish with garbanzos. Perfectly cooked , not Salted at all . My companion, as always, had Paella and all generous portion ‘s gone. Not a fun of Paella myself but their Paella … I would enjoy with pleasure as well since I experienced it before.
Mateus is a family business. Highly recommended for Portuguese culinary experience. The menu offers a bit of everything.
