Credit where credit is due... The food was unreal: delicious, authentic and filling! So far I’ve tried the prawns, the sea bass and a salmon dish here and I’ve left happy each time. It helps that the bill is reasonable too. I will continue to work my way through the fish menu👌🏼 thanks for a lovely dinner and the friendly service throughout.
OMG this place is amazing love it sooooo much all up to my expectations of fancy to kindness lovely food filling up your body till u can’t make any room for pudding soo nice I would love to go AGIAN I got a steak and shrimp and my mum got shrimp and veggie stake as my little ones got pasta and burger with chips this is my top 1 restaurant and new best I love though there’s no parking the rest is top tear
First time, however not the last. The chefs work hard in their small kitchen to produce some amazingly cooked food (so far). We had a course of various fish, cooked delicately to perfection. Scabbard, cod, calamari, prawns and squid. We also had some traditional Portuguese cod fish cakes. If you're feeling brave, try their home made scotch bonnet chilli. Yes, the owner can seem to be a little tough and tempestuous and has their fave customers, however, if you can get past that, the staff are just brilliant and look after you well. The food so far amazing! I highly recommend this for a traditional Portuguese feast. I've been to quite a few in London. The atmosphere and vibe was also brilliant. We will certainly be back.
I'm not even from London but every time a come down to visit family I come here. This is my favourite restaurant the food no matter what meal you have is fantastic the price is great and portions are good. I normally have a steak dish but this time I tried the fish dish and is great... only thing wrong is a wish they could open a restaurant by me... Full of flavour 😋
One less star due to the length it took & also the owner and her pal/family member ate first before we were served. It took about 40 minutes for the food to arrive. It has a relaxed and chilled atmosphere.
Apart from that, the food was super delicious! We had the mixed seafood dish which was huge! It states for two but could easily feed 3-4. We struggled to finish it. But we did! However that was because we also had the house pasta. It was absolutely delicious! It has chicken and cheesy sauce. This establishment is run by Portuguese therefore offering Portuguese cuisine.
So for 3 adults we had the mixed grilled seafood, 3 teas, a small portion of veg and potatoes and pasta. More than enough. Came to £83.93.
This is the second time we’ve been there. We sought it out the first time and this time as well. It’s not in a place we would go to. I’d never been to Bedfont until I went to O Calhau. But don’t let that deter you. It’s worth a trip. Just for the food.
Great place to enjoy some Portuguese style food. We ordered the seafood, which was a great portion of mussels, clams and prawns which can be easily shared with 3 persons. The battered calamari was too good, cooked just right and not too chewy. The bread basket comes with olives and sardine pate and tuna pate. The bruschetta was satisfactory, missed the balsamic vinegar drizzle though. The highlight of our dinner experience was the Grilled skewer sirloin steak with prawns. The tenderness of the meat and the prawns combination was excessively perfect. Overall I would definitely suggest this place for anyone looking forward to a Portuguese restaurant and a cozy ambiance
Would have given 5, but no Pasteis de nata and PLEASE do not serve McD style french fries (the biggest disappointment). The beef skewer was incredibly good. Perfectly cooked and tasty.
Best restaurant we have been to in UK, and we have visited plenty. Service was great,lovely Lady who served us. The chef was amazing, and the food was outstanding. Even though its over an hour to get there we will visit again for sure.
Nice independent Mediterranean restaurant. Great menu with loads of tasty options. Good mixed tappas/mezze menue. The whitebait was a little bit lager sized fish then I would of liked but the chorizo in red wine sauce and mixed Seafood dishes where delicious. A touch heavy on the parsley overall. Serving nice wines and super bock Portuguese lager (a personal favourite). reasonabley priced and Lovely friendly staff.
Great Portuguese cuisine with impeccable service and hospitality. We had a pan fried chorizo with beans in a red wine sauce starter followed by the seafood platter, which was incredible. Also had some local house wine. If this place was in central London, it would be packed. Can't recommend this place enough, do pay a visit and sample some exquisite Portuguese food.
Everything was a great 👍 lovely place, lovely service, fresh food and a very delicious and nice atmosphere 😊🥰
Lovely restaurant! Had the Espetada, which is a large portion & was cooked to perfection! Will be back! Highly recommend!
Amazing menu, it initially looked pricey, but for what you get it's worth it.
Living locally it would be very expensive. An inner London dinner would find this a treasure trove.
Authentic Portuguese place, staff, food and drinks.
Good cooked to perfection and served just like it's done in Portugal.
Delicious!!! Great gem of a Portuguese restaurant. Had some delicious food and the service was excellent. Definitely recommend a visit.
Amazing Portuguese restaurant. I've eaten here regularly now over the last 3 months. The rib eye was amazing, cooked to perfection. Attentive hosts. Would highly recommend
The food and service are excellent, we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Staff are very friendly and attentive. We will definitely be coming back!
Great place, a real hidden gem.
Food was fabulous... Very authentic.
Table of 6 and we all loved the food.
