Depois de muito ouvir falar desse leitão, lá fui provar. Não posso dizer ke o leitão não era bom, porque estava bom. Mas nada de especial, o empregado de sala muito atencioso , talvez por ter poucos clientes. Mas hoje fomos 3 pessoas jantar, duas come mos leitão e um colega pediu picanha, para seu total desagrado e claro nós ja janta mos a medo depois do sucedido 😅 O meu colega estava a jantar normal com a comida no prato, quando este se depara com um BARATA no meio da comida 🤢🤢🤢🤨 O empregado mais uma vez prontificou e retirou a comida e logo pediu mais uma comida o meu colega, ao ke ele recusou a comida porque ficou com nojo da comida o ke é normal. Mas o ke mais me revoltou foi a falta de respeito do Proprietário que não teve os tomates no sitio de vir pedir desculpa há mesa nem dar uma palavra nem os cafes oferecer para se tentar desculpar. Anda ali aquele mono seboso para traz e para a frente e engasgar se todo no meio da sala, e não tem consideração nenhuma pelos clientes, pelos menos com quem não é seu amigo/ conhecido. Foi sinceramente a primeira e ultima vez que fui lá jantar e não recomendo a ninguém mesmo. Ou se forem tenham cuidado e abram bem olhos, pois podem ser os próximos.

Flor do Ave Restaurant - A Hidden Gem for Authentic Portuguese Flavors

I recently dined at Flor do Ave, and it was an unforgettable experience. Nestled in a charming location, this restaurant offers a warm and inviting atmosphere that makes you feel at home from the moment you step inside.

The menu is a celebration of traditional Portuguese cuisine, with a variety of dishes that highlight the region’s rich culinary heritage. I started with their Bacalhau à Brás, a flavorful blend of shredded cod, onions, and crispy potatoes. The balance of flavors was impeccable, and the portion size was generous.

For the main course, I tried the Frango Assado (roasted chicken), which was perfectly cooked – tender, juicy, and seasoned to perfection. The sides of rice and roasted vegetables complemented the dish well. The food is clearly prepared with fresh ingredients and a lot of love.

The service was another highlight. The staff was friendly, attentive, and eager to explain the menu, making recommendations that turned out to be spot on. Even though the restaurant was busy, the service was quick and efficient.

To finish off the meal, I couldn’t resist the Pastel de Nata – a quintessential Portuguese dessert. It was warm, creamy, and had the perfect balance of sweetness.

Overall, Flor do Ave is a must-visit if you’re in the area and want to experience authentic Portuguese flavors. The cozy atmosphere, delicious food, and excellent service make it a standout dining experience. I highly recommended it!

Meu desagrado, ontem num jantar de aniversário na sala de baixo porque não têm elevador, cliente que somos a senhora de idade a servir nos estava cheia de pressa sempre a precionar o jantar onde me levantei para levar minha filha a casa de banho quando chego ja não tinha prato para continuar a jantar muito desagradável a atitude dessa pessoa ainda no fim traz a conta e pede gorjeta. Lamentável uma casa com o nome tão elevado vergonhoso.

A laid-back Portuguese restaurant. I went in the morning and couldn't eat traditional food, but the server was really friendly and I was able to drink really delicious coffee. It was so delicious that I wanted to buy coffee beans separately.
The seasoning was just right and the bread, bacon, and pancakes were average.
However, I decided to visit again next time because I expected that the food made in the traditional way would be more delicious.
I heard that there would be a special traditional dish featuring goat as the main dish on Friday and Saturday.
thank you
