Wow! What an incredible restaurant! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality. The food was simply divine, beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The ambiance was perfect for a relaxing evening out, and the service was impeccable. I left feeling completely satisfied and already looking forward to my next visit!

What a gem! Place was packed on a Saturday at 645pm. Grabbed 2 seats at the bar, and it was perfect. Melissa behind the bar was the friendliest server and helpful!The filet portuguese and grilled tuna were cooked very well. Dishes are ~$22-30 and come with vegetables. The portions are generous.Vibe is very casual and when it’s packed, it’s loud and lively.Will absolutely come back! I need to try the clams.Note: only street parking is available and this can be tricky

Wow the 40 min wait was worth every penny. Outstanding and I will go out of the way to come have their octopus and snapper. Can't say enough good things about the kind service. Value can't be beat for amazing seafood.

Amazing clams and calamari. The octopus was outstanding. The freshness of seafood was off the hook

If you're looking for a vibrant atmosphere with delicious food and an incredible staff ... this is the place! We ordered the TBone Steak com camarao and Costeletas de Vitela Grelhadas (Veal chops). The waiter recommended a bottle of the Silk & Spice Portuguese red wine which complimented our meal perfectly. On the weekends, they have traditional Portuguese entrées outside of the norm. I enjoyed this evening very much and will be returning FOR SURE! During the winter, it does get very chilly by the entrance which is the ONLY reason why I gave it 4 stars.
