It is such a delight to have this little restaurant. Customers are greeted with a smile. Their bifana is fresh and very tasty. They have the best Pastel de nata in the city.

Dine in or catering I always have an amazing, home cooked meal. Everything is fresh and delicious. Their deserts are incredible. The owners are so unbelievably kind. I picked up a catering order on Saturday which we weren’t going to eat until Sunday. Everything was wrapped for storage and they gave me extra juice to add to the chicken before reheating and double wrapped the treys. Very thoughtful!

The food reminded us of our trip to Portugal, the pastel de nata is the best I’ve ever had, even better than the ones we had in Belem. The owners were so lovely and warm, and our toddler ate everything! Will definitely come back.

My favourite secret sandwhich in Winnipeg. The Bifana is incredible. The baking is some of the best in the city. Owners are incredibly friendly. 100/100.
