“The owners are super friendly, and their food is fantastic! The best wings in town. Very pleasant place to meet new friends. The music is amazing, and the bartenders are extremely friendly. I love it!! I have been going there for 28 years.”
“Awesome setting. One of the few places left on James North that haven't outgrown the historic, simple, community-fostering Portuguese roots of the business district on the street.”
“Excellent place to meet with friends or meet new friends. Sports on large screen tvs, foosball table, pool table and ATM. Terrific food, best bifana on a bun in the city. The shrimp 🍤 is amazing. Perfect place for large parties or groups of any size. Tell them Mike sent you 😉”

“This place has a three stars Cuba feel to it. Smells like a resort. It plays Caribbean/vacation music. Very lively and fun - it should be a Portuguese place. Few TVs to watch games. …”
