About O Braseiro De Gaula

O Braseiro De Gaula is a gem on the island of Madeira, known for its tasty and refined food. The restaurant offers a calm atmosphere with staff that is friendly and accommodating, though some may wish for more empathy from certain members. Located about 180 meters from nearby accommodations, it features a fairly large parking lot in front of the building and convenient street parking options. This restaurant is popular among locals and is rarely frequented by tourists, ensuring an authentic experience.

A standout dish is the Espetada, a shashlik seasoned with garlic, salt, and bay leaf, perfectly paired with craft fries. The chicken espetada is also highly recommended, and if the portion isn't enough, guests are welcome to request a second helping. Other notable items include the steak and Enteremeada De Porco, both simply seasoned, and the Bolo with coca, grilled and spread with garlic butter. The garlic bread has also received praise, and desserts like caramel pudding are delicious as well. Drinks like Sangria and Poncha are prepared on-site.

Most dishes are cooked on a wood-fired grill, adding to the restaurant's unique flavors. The venue is very accommodating for families and individuals with disabilities, offering child-friendly chairs, access ramps, and an adapted bathroom. The exceptional food and warm atmosphere make it a highly recommended spot, with many declaring it one of the best places for espetada in Madeira.
