If you’re looking for the authentic hole-in-the-wall Portuguese churrasqueria experience, this is it. The food is great - try the chicken or ribs - and the portions are generous. The service is right on - arrive before noon or after 2:00 or you will be waiting for a table. And the atmosphere is hole in the wall. A little warm at times and almost always crowded but friendly and lively.

We like the chicken so much. Very friendly people, sometimes a little bit overcrowded but the food is very good

Our first time coming after our friends tried taking us, but it’s always so busy. Today we got in. OH MY GOODNESS!!! It’s amazing!!! We live in Lousã, but the hour drive and waiting however long is more than worth it. The chicken, ribs and all the side plates were awesome! Great wine and beer! Our waiter was so sweet even though we spoke English we communicated well and it was simply great!!! It’s not should we go, it’s when are we going!!!!

I love this place. It's tastier than at the fair. 15 euros for two for a whole chicken French fries salad 1l of coke sauce (a separate topic for discussion). There is this place and there are all the others.

This place may lack ambiance, but it definitely makes up for it with the food. The Frango Churrasco is like no other. Chips are hand cut and fried to perfection. Don't forget to ask for the spicy sauce. At less than 20 for 2 people, you will definitely be pleased. Best chicken I've ever tasted!!!

Best BBQ chicken in aveiro. Order the spicy chicken. It's not that spicy. I've been here twice. There is a bread made of corn, oat , with it. Clean, great price, but expect to wait if you go during lunch time.
