Estrela na Cozinha is a favorite spot for elevated Portuguese cuisine, with Chef Nobre and her husband overseeing the dining room. The octopus salad, duck breast, lamb chops, and garlic laminated fish are standout dishes, with the pumpkin fondant dessert being superb. Despite a reservation issue related to The Fork Festival, the staff was kind enough to honor the promotion. While the food and service are excellent, some guests may find the front tables near the food counter a bit noisy due to waiters passing by frequently.
