“ This newly opened Restaurant & Grill is beautifully designed and welcoming. The staff is friendly, informative, and professional. The menu has great option to choose from. I enjoyed the Bussio Estufado com Pao. I had never eaten conch before. Pleasantly surprised by the tomato based sauce it was served. I enjoyed a combination of garlic marinated shrimp, black beans, and roasted vegetable sides. I finished my meal with a flan dessert served with an orange sauce. Delicious! The chef/owner made a visit to the table and we had a lovely chat. Our entire party was very pleased with the whole experience. To take a note from another writer, we also had a gratuity included on the bill. We had a party of three. Este recém-inaugurado Restaurante & Grill é lindamente projetado e acolhedor. A equipe é amigável, informativa e profissional. O menu tem ótimas opções para escolher. Gostei do Bussio Estufado com Pao. Eu nunca tinha comido concha antes. Agradavelmente surpreendido com o molho à base de tomate que foi servido. Gostei de uma combinação de camarão marinado com alho, feijão preto e acompanhamentos de vegetais assados. Terminei minha refeição com uma sobremesa flan servida com molho de laranja. Delicioso! O chef/proprietário fez uma visita à mesa e tivemos uma conversa adorável. Todo o nosso grupo ficou muito satisfeito com toda a experiência. ”
“ Nothing like it in Brockton! I was amazed by the ambience when I came here the first time. You can tell the owners put a lot of thought and effort into making it what it is. Great location and vibe for a business meeting, also. The food was delicious and I must admit that the portion size had me fooled. Will most definitely return to explode more of the menu. ”
“ Ok guys I got an update for you all. I came back again to try the salmon and it is amazing. However I quickly realized this time around gratuity of 18% was added to my tab automatically without me knowing and they never briefed me either. The gratuity states it is for party of 6 or more but that did not apply to me. The waitress's than tells us that gratuity is automatically added so please keep that in mind when you are Paying the bill. I made the mistake of double tipping LOL because I did not see gratuity was added until afterwards ”
“ I've been here twice. First for a party for a large group that reserved the restaurant. It is gorgeous inside, beautiful light fixtures and artwork. There are booths as well as tables and a big bar. Service for our group was wonderful, I had my first caipirinha, which I've seen often on menus but never tried, my new favorite drink! It's a labor intensive cocktail with muddled limes and sugar along with your fruit flavor (I had passion fruit). The food from our buffet was excellent. Salmon, chichen wings, rice, these little potatoes wrapped in bacon, soo good! I'd recommend for a function. Went back again for dinner as a I felt like I hadn't tasted any Cape Verden dishes. Crackers with a yummy tuna spread was a nice change from bread and butter. The menu is in both English and (sorry for my ignorance here, not sure if it's Portuguese or Cape Verdean Creole). I had picanha (rump steak) medium, perfectly cooked and season, that beautiful little outer layer of fat cap omggg. Served on top of mixed vegetables (squah puree, broccoli, cauliflower, yucca) , with rice. Beautiful presentation. My husband had the filet, also cooked perfectly with the same vegetable mixture. The chef apparently came over directly from Cape Verde. We were too full for dessert different mousse that sounded amazing esp passion fruit. I also want to try the conch meat appetizer and creamy potato and squash soup. Bill with drinks was $88. Service was great, great addition to downtown, I'll be back and maybe do appetizers and dessert!! ”
“ Had a great experience at Porton Di Nos Ilha restaurant. The server was attentive and helpful in my meal selection. The waitress spoke Portuguese but was able to describe the dish so I could understand. My meal came in about 30 minutes and it was tasty. The restaurant is beautiful and has a Mediterranean vibe. Would recommend if you're here on a date or dinner with your family. ”
