Review Petiscos - Cape Town Central

Gavin Perrow
Stopped for a car repair issue and saw this place upstairs of an unassuming and bland business park. Interesting decor in that it looks like they fired the interior designer right at the start and brought in cousin Bert who just loves pottering about in his wood shop and also dabbles in copper pipe decorations. Norman Bates’ mum might very well have chipped in with her driftwood chandelier creations. Very warm and effusive welcome, and sterling service. Wine cold and before anything else, a bread roll and butter is delivered. Haven’t seen that for a while. Not in South Africa at any rate. There are a couple of suspiciously giant speakers in the corners, a mirror ball mounted on the ceiling and what looks like a small stage against another wall. Perhaps they do a Mediterranean ho-down? I ordered a ‘speciality’ of prawns and calamari with rice. A relatively modest portion with a savoury rice that would not win any awards, with, for some reason, raw carrot sticks cut with a machete, but for the price, an absolutely lovely meal and well worth it. Accidentally tipped 22% instead of my usual 15, and was quite happy with that. Will be back.

My sister travelling from the UK, ended her 2 week Cape Town holiday today. Before leaving to go back home tomorrow, she wanted to eat some excellent Portuguese food. Petiscos did not disappoint, from the most scrumptious food, amazing live music and festive vibe. We couldn’t of asked for better way to enjoy our Sunday with family. Best chicken in Cape Town 👌
Janice Govender
The restaurant came highly recommended & truly lived up to its reputation for great food & service!! We ordered a variety of meals & were not disappointed by any of them!! I would highly recommend the prawn curry, as well as the prawn cakes!! Absolutely delicious. In addition to the great food, the atmosphere in the restaurant was vibrant & lively with excellent service from staff!! I definite must if you're in the Blouberg area!!
Vallen Nambiar
Very posh dining experience. The chicken was grilled perfectly, and sauce was excellent. Limited cocktails, but still great. Enjoyed dinner!
Lorraine Van Der Merwe
Great dinner, authentic and delicious. Staff were all extremely friendly, and we loved the peri peri chicken livers. My partner had the prawn curry, absolutely Devine! Will be back for sure. Great date night spot!
Peter
Amazing food. Atmosphere was warm and inviting. At night they also had someone to watch over the cars outside, which was nice.
Enid Son
The curry crab and the fish was delicious. The prawns and the chicken was disappointing. The chicken was a bit dry and the prawns lacked flavour. The location is above a shopping centre - no views. Inside and outside seating. Friendly service.
Richard Steyn
Great place, amazing food and great service from Amandie. Will be back soon.
Jeff Rossouw
Nothing pretensious here, be it the location, decor or patrons. Open the front door and you feel the buzz. People eating with gusto, boisterous laughing and sometimes live music. It is a true neighbourhood restaurant and most customours are clearly regulars. Fresh ingredients, prepared well and without any frills meets attentive staff. An honest offering at affordable prices. The owners can be proud of what they continue to offer! PS: I have been back a few times and yes, it remains a must visit. A true 5☆ contender in this segment!
Angela Kewney
Simply unbeatable.. if you’re looking for an incredible Portuguese restaurant in Cape Town this is the real deal .. small and intimate… unpretentious and authentic. Highly recommend the XaiXai chicken, crab curry, Portuguese steak, Cod and prawn rissoles. I have made my way through the menu for years and Petiscos remains my restaurant of choice as they remain consistent with absolutely amazing service. Live music and the prawn special on Wednesdays is superb. Can never wait to return.
Ettienne DT
Beer was nice and Ice cold, food wasn't bad either....hahaha. Jokes! The food looked and was great. Tasty Portuguese food. I had a taste of Prawn Curry with rice....nice...I had a taste of Meat on sticks [kebabs] which was big and filling, and a beef stew with chips. I can say that they all tasted good.
Melanita Katts
Food was absolutely delicious. Service was excellent. Definitely will go back.
Chantele Jacobs
Awesome food and really good prices. Very chilled, relaxed vibe with affordable drinks. R14 for vodka and R15 for gin. Tins of mixer is R15 which is very good. Meals average R100 up to about R250. Starters are r40ish really tasty food. Super friendly staff. Would recommend
Krisztian Bukaresti
We went to celebrate my girlfriend's father's birthday. I must say the place is cozy and warm, got a nice feeling already when we walked in. We got absolutely superb service from our waitress and last but not least, the food was spot on for all of us! The skewers are to die for, not to mention the sardines were out of this world! We had a great experience and will definitely going back again! Keep up the great work guys!
Darren Ford
The restaurant is small, so make a booking just to be safe. It feels nice and cozy inside. The food was really great and the chilli sauce they put on the table is to die for. The service could be better as it's a little on the slow side. We were disappointed that the owner (whom we saw at several other tables) never came to check in on us.

Coming back soon, classy 🇿🇦💯
Wilma Maritz
Went there with a bunch of people - which can be quite tricky for waitrons - but had the best service! Since it is a nonsmoking restaurant, smokers had to go outside, and the waitrons were so amazing that they would bring the drinks ordered out to the people, not expected but appreciated! The place can be a bit small and hot if it’s full, but the staff made sure the air conditioning is on full blast. They were all very friendly and still made jokes even after we made them wait a while after closing. Best spirits. The food was just as good. They add just the right amount of spices to their food, so nothing is left tasteless. The portions are huge! Great quality for money and overall good experience.
Miguel
A cold wet Saturday afternoon and lunch with the boys. Place was fairly busy yet staff were efficient and attentive. Portuguese cuisine at its best. Never disappointed with the food and service. Always look forward to returning.
Amit Bhana
Ordered a tipo tinto which I always wanted to try. At R35. Sweet and wouldn't buy it again.<br/>Prawn sort of half moons as a starter. Cheesy and not much prawn in it. Average.<br/>Sardines were okay. Not scaled so that was not good on the palette.<br/>Their xai xai chicken was excellent. Spinach asva side had fine sand in it. Not ideal..overall okay. Would go again just for their chicken
Kimberly Liu
Very nice Portugese restaurant. I recommend crumbed mushroom, creamy mussels and Chicen Xai Xai. The desserts were also very nice, we had pastais de nata. Woule like to come again soon.
Melissa Sanderson
Finally got around to trying Petiscos and I was not disappointed. Typically, the decision was made on a whim rather than with an advance booking. This resulted in a wait at the bar but that gave me a chance to check out the great atmosphere and unexpectedly cost setting. <br/>Staff were wonderfully friendly and the service excellent. <br/>The menu is filled with delicious options so the choice is tough. We eventually decided on a shared starter of prawn cakes and chorizo. The chorizo is very rich so I struggled to finish a portion but my partner was thrilled to be able to assist with that. The prawn cakes are amazing. I want more, lots more! <br/>My partner went for the ribs as a main and declared them utterly delicious. I opted for the meat espetada. I admit I was disappointed it arrived on a plate rather than the hanging skewer with all the amazing juices dripping. It was, however, excellent and cooked perfectly to order. <br/>I’ll definitely be returning - perhaps with a booking next time! <br/>Thank you to Gemma, Cody, and the rest of the team.
Mel Woudberg
YUM YUM YUMMMMMMMM. The food is SO delicious. Our waitress, Cammy, was very attentive. service was quick. Food was amaze... cannot wait to go back to try more of the fabulous food
Isabel Alfredo
Everything about this place is just perfect. From the food to the lovely staff who took care of our orders. I would say it’s the best Portuguese restaurant in town
Dave Mac
Wow! I can't actually believe I have driven past Petiscos for years and never tried it out. We were a table of 23 and they handled our orders with aplomb. Service was truly fantastic, vibe was cool and everybody was satisfied with the generous portions of (mainly) Portuguese cuisine. Good job. I'll definitely go back.
Chanel Fivaz
Perfect Portuguese.<br/>If your looking for Authenticity then this is the perfect place when it comes to Portuguese cuisine. The food was packed with flavour and each dish was mastered with key ingredients and fresh produce. My main of Trinchado was moreish and the chicken was tender. The sides are just as moreish. Sadly they did not have a variety of deserts including the one I was hoping to try but with the exceptional fast and efficient service it didn't bother me one bit. Not the first and most definitely not the last time.
Yajna Gold
Loved the  food here, I can't remember what I ate but the food and  vibe was good, we all had a merry time on wine! Thanks for a good evening, I think I remember soem live music too.
Trevor
Revisited after a long time and was not disappointed <br/>Busy with great vibe Bustling ambience <br/>We ordered LM steak with mushroom sauce, Peri Peri chicken and calamari/kingklip combo<br/>All were delicious ( sides were rice or fries)<br/>Have maintained their standards for high quality Portuguese fare<br/>Service was friendly and quick<br/>Was good to see owner patrolling <br/>
Gavin Mc
All round great experience . Great service ambiance and quality food. Definitely one of the best in Parklands. Seafood platter was very generous.
Gail Van Beest
Darren Simpson made a recommendation for an excellent Portuguese this morning on the radio for cape town's best secrets and it turns out to be an excellent choice. Pesticos in Parklands is stunning. Went tonight and it was packed. Wonderful food, service and atmosphere. Live music.. Will be back.
Carlétjie Van Eck
Friendly swift service - feels like you have been a regular forever. The steak (no matter which cut) falls appart and melts in your mounth and the seafood is perfectly cooked... very, very, very heavy handed on the garlic though so you smell like a garlic factory when you walk out... perhaps offer a garlic light or a no garlic option for those of us not too keen on garlic. Otherwise very nice little gem in the heart of Parklands. Smell you guys soon!!! 😉
Emma Du Plooy
If you're looking for true Baccalhau this is the place to find it. Love the pasteis de nata for dessert too. Very traditional nice vibe. Little Portugal
Micarla Havenga
Atmosphere was very lively, ordered mussels to start which were yummy, but found the trinchado to be bland and watery, very disappointing. Will be back, but not for the trinchado.
Francis Du Plessis
Best food ever! Service was excellent! And on the ball! Friendly and welcoming! Portions were nice and filling and tasty! Time for food and drinks turn around time very quick. Over all Petiscos reminds me of being back home in Mozambique! Definitely value for money
Jana Ferreira
Autêntico português!<br/><br/>What a fantastic cozy little Portuguese haven. Spot-on atmosphere. Live music twice a week! A fully stocked bar. Perfect service. And best of all, an impressive menu with food that truly satisfies.<br/><br/>There's no reason not to love this place. Seriously, go try it out. You'll probably see me at the bar because I'm planning on becoming a regular.
Shaylin Mostert
Had chicken xai xai and molotof! It was absolutely amazing, I would definitely recommend it to everyone I know! Waiter was very friendly and heaters outside saved me from the cold. A night well spent
Chef Samantha Katz
Unfortunately we were unable to eat at the establishment. We left hungry. When we arrived no one seated us even though the manager was directly looking at us and left us standing there. We then took our own menus and took a seat in the smoking area. We then waited and no waitress came to take our order despite the fact that there were only three other tables. The manager then came out to a table in the smoking area- started drinking a glass of wine, gyrated his hips and started to dance as if he was John Travolta 😂 hilarious to watch but not professional... once the dancing started we got up and left. ADVICE: by all means entertain your friends but also take note and care about other customers too. On a positive note... cute decor.
Emmaoxleysimpson
Petiscos is a gem in our hood! Every dish we have EVER ordered has been delicious. The staff are amazing and so friendly. A must visit spot and you will not leave disappointed.
Bhavna Naidoo
Love this place, best portuguese food in Cape Town. The food and service is always good and there is live entertainment certain nights; Ernesto on a Friday night is great. Be sure to book in advance to get a table. Our fav thing on the menu has to be the boss platter, a little bit of everything; the giblets and snails are a must try too...<br/>Always great service, especially from Mathew and really nice to see the same level being kept from one of the new ladies Sasha this week. Be back soon!
Jody Harris
Meh been here once, won't rush back in a hurry. From the time we walked in and were treated as if we were common rubbish off the street who couldn't afford free water from a dirty tap to the mediocre food and opposite pricing. People rant and rave about this place, nah, first impressions last guys. I will keep my platinum card in my wallet for someone else.
Sheryll
Cosy little spot tucked away in parklands <br/><br/>The food portions are huge and packed full of flavour <br/>The biggest part of the menu is flame grilled yet they somehow manage to keep the tenderness and juice in the meat. <br/><br/>Staff are great and make you feel at ease the minute you sit down <br/><br/>I am usually a chilli freak, so I braved the home made peri peri sauce despite the waiters warnings <br/>It almost burnt my tongue off so that serves me right for covering my mixed grill kebab with it. <br/>Still, it was yummy and strangely moreish despite the fact the heat was off the scale. <br/><br/>My dad raved about the Mozambican marinade so we even bought a bottle to take home.<br/><br/>Such a gem, we'll be back again soon
Björn Luciano Salsone
What an absolute delight! I've been here every time I have come to CT & they just keep getting better & better. Attention to detail, service, food quality & the manager over heard us saying the mussels shells were empty & to our surprise they brought us a hole separate fresh bowl! Was totally amazing. Was blown away! #welldone #thankyou
Darla Dates
Absolutely fantabulous!!!!.....We didn't sit down but based on the Zomato reviews we drove all the way from home to Parklands for the Peri Peri chicken and giblets. No regrets....certainly one of the best peri peri fire grilled chicken I've had for a while...we bought a whole one and even though I was stuffed I couldn't stop eating after the taste 😊. The giblets was soft and flavourful....really cooked to perfection. <br/><br/>When I arrived to collect the venue is warm, friendly and cosy...with a good relaxed vibe. The waitrons were friendly and professional while I was there.<br/><br/>I can't wait to try more items on their menu. We will definitely be back for a sit down.
Lucille Byrnes
After reading about this Portuguese restaurant for some months, 4 of us headed there for lunch.   If I had driven past the shopping entre where it is housed I wouldn't have bothered, but am I glad I did.   What a find!By the way,, Petiscos means "a delicatessen or a snack, a 'small' thing prepared and cooked in a special way that concentrates more on quality than quantity".   Not entirely true, because the portions were anything but tapas-size.No hesitation on the part of my 3 friends: they chose Prawns a Nacional, with savoury rice or chips.   I opted for a friend sardine starter (3 huge buggers with heads-and-eyes appeared on my plate) plus salad on the side, which I scooped up with panini-type bread dowsed in their own peri-peri sauce (don't go there!).No room for puds, but do treat yourself to a 1920 (a Portuguese brandy: warmed and elegantly presented).   And my black coffee arrived on porcelain tray mit hot water for diluting in case - such style.
Sheila Pinheiro Nainkin
Being portugese ice found it difficult to find an authentic and cosy portugese restaurant in Cape Town that is not a bar and that is not overpriced. My husband and I stumbled upon this gem and were completely blown away. Awesome bacalhau, tasty trinchado brilliant xai xai chicken, fresh pasteis de nata! Needlesd to say, a little bit of everything was the order of the day! The owner is the very same from Senhor prego, jhb a place my family and I used to frequent!! Will be back as often as I possibly can! Great service!
Adi Van Breda
This place is a hidden gem. We heard about it through word of mouth and wow what amazing food and service! You can also have functions there which is great, on a Saturday they have some live music. Best Trinchado I have had, amazing prawns and peri peri chicken to die for! Can't wait for our next visit!
Ashley
I went there for the second time and the food tasted different and service was slow despite the fact it was not full. For starters I had ordered the chicken livers (it was quite plain and not tasteful) my partner had the grilled chorizo which was flambé (tasted like alcohol and plastic combined) and for main I ordered sole, which was undercooked and had to be sent back. <br/>Portuguese food bursts with warm aromas in the mouth filled with flavor, though this was not the experience we received here.
Gezania
What a wonderful, cosy little gem of a Portugese restaurant! Was invited by friends for dinner and was pleasantly surprised! The waiters were super friendly, great ambiance and music to set the atmosphere and the food was delicious for such a well priced menu! Definitely a must for a cosy winter evening with friends and good food!
Johan Naude
The best kingklip I ever had...this place is a hidden gem! Relaxed but festive vibe, friendly staff. I cant wait to try their stakes and chicken options....or wait maybe I will just have that kingklip again!
Liesle
The service was really good, we definitely enjoyed the ribs and the prawns. The only thing that let them down was the salad, the veggies were dry, as if they had been left out for a while, not fresh at all. I'd go back to try them again.
TASTEXPLORER
Petiscos had been a favourite for more than 10 years. It is personal and cozy, and totally consistent. Don't miss the prawns a nacional - I want to lick the plate. If squid heads are available, while they are oily, are so tasty.
Desiré Crowther
Very friendly staff, exceptionally so! Food was okay. Locations far out of town in Parklands. We took an über from Gardens, Cape Town, seriously not worth the trip out to Parklands.
Francois & Lana
First (and last) experience... Horrendous peri peri sauce (resembling "drain water" in colour, texture & taste - not even remotely close to the real Mozambique peri peri sauce.<br/>Service was great, people are friendly, and warm atmosphere - - BUT - - the food, not so much... <br/>Tasted like that sauce was even used in the Trinchado ...yuck. <br/>Overall a disappointment.
Lizelle Meyer
Wow, what an amazing little place! Their service is excellent and waiters are friendly and prompt. We went there for dinner and had fillet steak and chicken - both of which you could cut with a fork. Excellent value for money with very reasonable prices. By far the best service I've ever experienced. Note of advice: book in advance! This little place is always packed (of course)
Mohit Sureka
Possibly the best Portuguese restaurant in Cape Town. It's a nice tucked away joint in parklands, family owned and run by the owner and has always been on the ball with service and food. Being a vegetarian doesn't leave with much options in this cuisine but they have always been happy to make something special up and differently for me! They have a particular chilli sauce with their bread, which is divine.
Tracy Poulter
Hidden little Gem...<br/><br/>This place is not situated in the best location BUT it's sooo worth the visit.<br/><br/>The atmosphere is warm and cozy, the service is brilliant, the waiters and management are always friendly and helpful. <br/><br/>My absolute favourite here is the Beef Trinchado, they don't make it spicy enough for me so I add their home made chilli sauce which just perfects it for me. <br/><br/>Their prices are eh... reasonable <br/>Service is fantastic<br/>Food, flavour and portions are amazing<br/><br/>A definite must try if you are in the area and enjoy a good Portuguese cuisine, they know how to do it!
Nicolett Schwarz
A traditional Portuguese style restaurant. Excellent vibe, fun family restaurant with a huge menu to choose from and great food. Chicken livers, Prawns and baby chicken is a favorite every time.
Paul Pirie
With my Portuguese heritage I really wanted to try Petiscos. Food was good but the waiter really let us down with slack service and he got a couple of orders completely wrong without so much of an apology. Was kind of a take it or leave it attitude! Apart from that we enjoyed the experience, but not sure if I'd take the Portuguese side of the family there.
Jana Lorraine Pretorius
Petiscos is a fantastic little spot in Parklands. Although its location isn't ideal, it has become a popular dining spot for locals, and it has been doing very well since it opened just a couple of years ago. It offers something refreshingly unique and different from the typical seafood and grill type restaurants in the area. The cuisine aims for Portuguese and Mozambican authenticity, so you can expect lots of fresh seafood cooked over open coals, as well as classic dishes like Trinchado. However, they also cater for those who prefer the more familiar or Continental dishes, so there really is something for everyone. Also, be warned that the portions (especially the platters) are enormous! Definite value for money.
Jonathan Garisch
My mother came home one day and raved about Petiscos, so I thought i'd give it a bash. I didn't really have any expectations, but it was definitely worth the visit. The place was buzzing, friendly staff and they serve Super Bock and 2M beer. I had the trinchado, which was good, but not as good as Dias Tavern's trinchado unfortunately. Will be back!
Nikki Cheetham
THEIR RIBS ARE TO DIE FOR! I feel like moving to Cape Town just to have Petiscos ribs everyday! Really, really yummy! Unfortunately, I didn't order them. I ordered a very average prawn curry, I was very disappointed. But will go back for the ribs every single time I go to Cape Town.
FredMono
4 of us we had giblets, squid heads and chorizo all brilliant. Mains sole delicious with great presentation, Portuguese steak 10/10, chicken peri peri very authentic I had the chicken Xai Xai good sauce but the was raw. Had to send it back to the kitchen. Nice atmosphere. Good 2M beer.
Wes
Absolutely stunning food & service!! The Prawn Cakes, Xai-Xai Chicken, Trinchado, Creamy Garlic Mussels and Sole is delicious. <br/><br/>Every restaurant should be like this establishment 😊 <br/><br/>
Jolene Page
I Have only been here twice but I must admit this is fast becoming one of my favourite restaurants in the area. The staff is friendly delivering good service and the food is always great. I will recommend them to anyone looking for a brilliant meal.
Andre Breytenbach
Wonderful gem in Parklands!!<br/><br/>The food is absolutely brilliant, the location so so, the owner Andy always on duty and a delight of a person, so is his son Rudi - they do a wonderful hosting job!<br/><br/>You have to try the Xia Xia Chicken - incredible! Please note this is not a Portuguese restaurant - dont compare to other Portuguese restaurants.   <br/><br/>Heads up book over weekends the place is packed! <br/><br/>I had my year-end function there once and everyone's food came out simultaneously and cooked to perfection, and we were about 60 people, no easy task!<br/><br/>By far the best restaurant in the area!!
Bianca Nakan
Sat down Friday night for a delicious family feast! We shared a boss chicken and boss meat platter, with soft bread and vegetables. Really tasty and great value for money, two platters fed 5 of us. The giblets in sauce was an absolute winner! Ended off with a scrumptious traditional Portuguese milk tart! 👌
Heath Huxtable
Fabulous evening. Awesome quality food, excellent service with Tristan, well looked after venue. Great value. Will certainly go back again. 😃
Johann Malherbe
I have been doing many reviews and ratings, and it is an absolute pleasure rating Petiscos.<br/>This restaurant is the balance between everything from friendly staff, good service but most of all good food and when i say good i mean juicy and flavourful that will meet and exceed your desired tastebuds,this place is a full rating and a definte thums up.
Shaun Van Zyl
I have to be honest and say this is by far the best chicken and chorizo I have experienced in Cape Town. Highly highly recommend the full chicken boss platter. Great value for money and amazing service
Chris Van Dyk
Great food... Whole chicken the best.... The trinchado sauce was more like a gravy.... Not traditional at all... But the rump is tender... Starters are all great, except for the crumbed prawns... Very heavy batter... Can be lighter
Pam Susman Gill
Went to Petiscos on Sunday for lunch. I just LOVE this place! Service is excellent and food is great. Prices are very reasonable. Advisable to book on weekends as it fills up quickly. I have been here quite a few times. I live on Atlantic Seaboard and will drive out to Parklands rather that go to the rapidly deteriorating Dias Tavern in Cape Town. I love the Petiscos sardines and the chicken/prawn combo Cafreal. Their Pasteis De Nata dessert is also great. All in all, well worth it! Have also taken friends from overseas in the past and they, too, loved it.
Kilaan
Really enjoy Petiscos every time I go. Saturday nights are the best when they have their in house musician entertaining beautifully. The evening turns into a dinner dance later and is really fun. Beware though, book early for Sat night, this place is really popular with the locals
Grant Kenchington
Always a great vibe with fantastic food and good wine!! <br/><br/>A must visit for great chicken and red meat dishes alike with generous potion sizes and friendly waitrons
Shamen Raja
First time. Great atmosphere. Good food although a bit salty. Snails starter tasty but small snails. Prawn cakes really tasty but little prawns inside. I would still give it another try.
Gordon Hicks
Well we have been coming here for a while now. We always try somewhere else but always return to Petiscos. A lovely homely family run resturant, where you are warmly welcomed and beckoned in to the family. The food, even for my foody wife, is always top quality, great tasting, with a uniqueness thats brings you back for more. And the prices are amazing. This is possibly the best resturant in Cape Town but definitely the best in the area. I recommend the Xai Xai Rump. The seafood always fresh and tasty too.
Trevor Pontes
We had a birthday dinner on a Wednesday day evening. Great one man band playing great unintrusive numbers which really set a great ambiance. The waiter was brilliant. Service was excellent. Food was really great and good value for money. Really worth a visit.
Ashley Blayne
One of our favorite restaurants in Cape Town! Excellent food from start to finish, decor is kept fresh, live entertainment...and always a great vibe
Riaan Anker
I visited some time last year ... 2014.<br/><br/>The food was okay but my expectation was more .. In my view Diaz Tavern in town and Castella Amare is better all round ..
Henry Van Apeldoorn
The food is really good and the service is excellent. Ask for Ashley and your evening will be great. Good portugeuse food at good prices and a relaxed atmosphere
DJ Mario De Oliveira
Been Going to This restaurant for many years! All i can say is all round they have been very consistent in their food quality, sometimes the food wait! can take abit long, but in the end the long wait is really worth it, exceptional food quality & service!. You can see the owner is very passionate about he’s business always keeping an eye on things & cracking up one or two jokes with the guests. A real pleasant warm vibey feeling restaurant with nice ambiance & attention to detail in the smaller things.my overall experience over the years is 4 out of 5.Loverly place for couples wanting a romantic dinner for two provided you have booked in advance
Gavin Marks
I took my girlfriend out to dinner one Friday night at Petiscos, from the moment we walked through the door the host was friendly, efficient and well mannered. We were offered drinks soon after by our waitron. When our food arrived we were both blown away by how tasty and perfectly cooked the meat was. An overall pleasant experience!
Food Whisperer
Petisco's Portuguese steak is one of the best I've tasted! Small restaurant though so book in advance especially for the weekend. Cosy atmosphere.
Anje Robberts
WOW WOW and WOW! I was fortunate enough to celebrate my birthday at Peticos Restaurant on Saturday, it was was amazing! Great atmosphere, great service and yummy food, definitely a hidden gem!! I can't wait to go there again.<br/>Thank you for making my birthday super special!
Jess Styles
I attended a birthday event and was let down by this restaurant. We were a big group of about 15 people so slow service is to be expected but we waited over an hour for our food.<br/><br/>I ordered the calamari, which was overcooked and very very bland. Overall we were generally not impressed by this restaurant
Kim Austin
This is a MUST - the food is phenomenal and well worth it. Service is brilliant !!
