Best Portuguese restaurants nearby. Discover the best Portuguese food in Braga. View Menus, Photos and Reviews for Portuguese restaurants near you.. Sometimes called the “Portuguese Rome” for its many churches, Braga is an ancient town in northwest Portugal. Its history and livelihood are tied to Christianity dating to the 3rd century. The city’s 12th-century Sé (Cathedral) is still one of the most popular attractions. Just outside of town lies the renowned Bom Jesus de Monte pilgrimage sanctuary, with its striking Baroque stairway. After dark, the stoic town turns upside down, with a rich nightlife thanks to its many university students.

While in Braga we decided to try Frutuoso based on the reviews and it did not disappoint! I have eaten bacalhau many different ways since my family is Portuguese but I have never eaten like this. It was delicious!!!! My husband had cabrito which he really enjoyed. The service was excellent. They made you feel at home. Thanks for a excellent meal!Thanks for the visit and for the words. See you. Best regards.

Reviewed By PatC89

Just had a dinner with a large group T Retrokitchen. We had several starters, all excellent. These were followed by steak and potatoes, rice and curried seafood, and duck. A group of 16 and every dish was perfect. Not a complaint in the group. Would come on my own without a second thought. Highly recommended if you are liking for something very good but perhaps not traditional Portugese.

Very cozy and comfortable environment with friendly and professional service. The chef served our delicious food. Simple ingredients of olive oil garlic and salt on a perfectly cooked filet mignon and little baked potatoes and side veggies. Delicious 2015 Douro wine "Duas Quintas". Delicious desert as well and Delta premium coffee. Yes...delicious indeed.

Great place with friendly atmosphere and homemade food made by married(i suppose) couple with ingrediences from their own farm. For example homemade icecream from local blackberries is delicious.I was there three times already and i am always happy to come back.I was there only in lunch time, but i think the dinners must be beatiful experience.

We went to Tabuas and Portuguese tapas were phenomenal - very competent and friendly team.Saquinhos de camarao (little baskets with shrimp - deep fried), montadinho de cavala fumada (light smoked white fish on top of red pepper and black toast), pork cheeks with grelos (seasonal greens), mini octopus seasoned with herbs and pimentoes were awesome.Worth the visit on a rainy night.Five stars!Kudos Tabuas!

Ai o alho - Vinhos e petiscos

Reviewed By Antonio G

The space, although a bit away from city center, welcomes you with its old furniture. They call "grandmother's table" to a big table for big groups in the center of the room. The "tapas" are delicious: mushrooms and chicken wings were our favourites, but the chef prepares over 10 different "tapas", and a delicious "amouse bouche" of aubergine. Good variety of wines with very good prices. Main dishes, we had the fantastic T-Bone (really good meat!) and the "Bacalhau", cod-fish "al dente": not too salty, not too cooked. But DO NOT miss the deserts, specially the chef's version of "Romeo and Juliette" and the "beijinhos" of passion fruit. They make it worth to pick the car and drive there!Thanks for your visit and your kind words. Hope to see you soon.

I followed the herd after seeing the #1 rating on TripAdvisor in Braga and wandered down from my hotel. While my expectations were high they were well satisfied. Attentive yet not over bearing service. I was talked out of ordering a starter (a first for me!) because I ordered the ribs. Good call! Slow cooked for a day the meat fell off the bone. Highly recommended. Oh and the cheesecake was awesome and even though I didn’t indulge they have a massive cocktail list also.

Not too much to be said about this place. It has a nicely decorated interior trending somewhere in the direction of in-style of nostalgia and offers a fair range of burgers, steak sandwiches, and beers. Food is good but not outstanding and fairly priced. Staff is friendly and attentive.
