We didn't even take any photos, but the food was amazing. We had garlic snails for starters and shared 2 seafood platters between 5 people for mains, and it was sufficient (3 ladies, 2 men).
The service was efficient, and the food was delicious. Fresh seafood that is super affordable for what you get.
We had 3 desserts, they didn't have the coffee mousse that we wanted, so we ordered a creme brulee, rice pudding & condensed milk cake (kind of like a creme caramel/baked custard situation). If you don’t like citrus, don't order any of these 🤣 I enjoyed the creme brulee and rice pudding the most.
We had 2 bottles of wine, 2 sparking waters and 2 beers.
A note - make a reservation! It was full.

Lunch
Our waiter, Passmore, was a very good host.
The meals were tasty.
Don't expect fancy plating, the emphasis is on the authenticity of the meal.
The prawn curry was very tasty, but very mild.
I would like to go back for the chicken.
Rob Duke
We were mid-shift, so it was understandably quiet. Despite that, we lackednothing.
My steak was cooked to rare perfection, and my Wife's Prawn Curry was sublime.
Service was attentive, with excellent suggestions.

Again, our experience was top class. Please try the Pecanha steak,you will not be disappointed. Naturally, the sea food platter is out of this world with generous portions and garlic butter. The dessert was very enjoyable. The waitress understood our orders and is experienced in dealing with patrons. The owners are in attendance and are friendly. Safe parking is appreciated.

Excellent service from kitchen staff, waiting staff and management. Had a function with 24 guests, separate bills allowed, hot food served to everyone. 10/10 well done!
David Millar
Superb food. Authentic Portuguese food. Excellent service. Not only friendly but prompt. A gem of a place! 10 out of 10.
Donna Andrews
Ordered prawns and they were overcooked and cold. A friend sent their chicken back as it was overcooked too.
Louise Alho
Love their Portuguese cuisine. Their staff is friendly and I get to have one of my favourite desserts, Malatoff🙂.
Ken Heart
Genuine Portuguese cuisine in a lively setting. Excellent food, quick service. Try the roast goat for something different and tasty.
Linda de Beer
Oh my goodness I just love this place, the food and the waiter was kind and on point we will defenetley be going back
Warren Theron
Best Portuguese restaurant in Joburg. The codfish was a bit dry, please work on that. Everything else is perfect!
Karyn Pitcher
We've been to Braseiro twice now. Great experience both times. It has the feel of your local cosy restaurant with great food and the owners personally coming to your table to ensure you are happy. Second time we went was for a birthday and they served the birthday boy a piece of cake that was fit for a king, along with a few glasses of port. Lovely restaurant, awesome experience.

If you going to go for over basted food, drenched in sauce and full of unnessecary spices and even sushi on a Portuguese restaurant menu... this is not the place.<br/><br/>Perfectly prepared Português food - made with fresh ingredients, great portions and Great Português wine. Really recommend their prawns and Chocos. The Marianna White wine was delicious too!

This restaurant has recently relocated to Linksfield Terrace Shopping Centre. Being the new kid on the block we decide to check it out and see what it's about. The service is slow and a tad unprofessional, the owner doesn't seem interested in customer service and although nothing wrong with it, the food takes forever to arrive. I hate to compare restaurants to . one another but you can't ignore the fact that just 200m up the road (Mozambik) you'll receive better, friendlier service, enjoy a better setting, eat and drink for much cheaper and most-importantly a better meal.

Love coming here to get my portuguese fix! Perfect for a family lunch! Love the clams (ameijoas) , fried quails, prawns, bacalhau à braz (when available) , rump steak topped with egg. You have to order the thin circles of potato as a side with your main - they are the best! Biscuit cake and a coffee for dessert, you won't be disappointed!!!
Chantel Ehlers
This is my favorite Portuguese restaurant!!!! Jorge and his team provide excellent real authentic Portuguese food that you would struggle to find any where else!
Neil Hymers
Great place. Went with visitor from Lisbon. He was super impressed. Called it authentic Portuguese home cooking. Best giblets & clams I've ever had. My prawns were a little tough & dry. Overcooked I think. My guest found his monk fish too firm but delicious flavour. Service was on the inattentive side. Otherwise would have given it too marks

The best way to kick off a Test match at Ellis Park is lunch at O'Braseiro.<br/>Nothing fancy just good old fashioned Portuguese food.<br/>The decor is sparse as you would want it to be. The food is some of the best Portuguese you will find in Johannesburg. The menu has really typical regional offerings - tripe etc<br/>However if you want great giblets chicken livers this is the place to go. Hot bread rolls with a delightful peri- peri sauce are offered as a complimentary dish. <br/>For mains we ordered rump Espetada / fillet steak grilled and topped with ham and egg / trinchado rump steak cubes stir fried in garlic and white wine and kingklip fillet. All absolutely divine.<br/>Washed down with Vinho Verde.<br/>Good authentic Portuguese restaurant. Spacious and not crammed in like sardines ( pardon the pun ) at other places pre Ellis Park.
Annabel
One of the more authentic Portuguese restaurants in Johannesburg . What's good about this restaurant is that they have about 5 daily specials to choose from every day for lunch and this is when you can experience Portuguese cuisine besides the normal prawns, espetada and peri peri chicken. Good food and the service is efficient. Music and dancing on a Friday and Saturday evening.
Monique Da Silva
Delicious Portuguese restaurant that is Kensington's hidden gem! The food is mouth-watering, the deserts decadent, and service is good. Homey-feel perfect to bring the whole family along, definitely worth the find!
Julio Dos Santos

John Domingos
Real Portuguese food and good Portuguese food.<br/>Nice atmosphere and good service.<br/>Value for money. Good food at a good price.<br/>Free wi-fi, just ask one of the waiters for the password. They have a smokers bar.

Overall a lovely place for Sunday lunch, but be advised that the kitchen closes at 3 on a Sunday. The starter platter was one of the best I've had, especially the giblets. I had the crab curry which was both fun to eat (with a bib and Nut cracker to break shells) and delicious, as was my boyfriends picahna steak. However my dad's prawns were rather dry but still tasty. Definitely Worth a visit, and make sure to have the creme brule!
Rui Fragoso
Trusted kitchen, and the best for true Portuguese food. Great staff service. Sundays lunch is a real treat of Portuguese food selection. The seafood quality is excellent and without short cuts on the ingredients. I keep on returning for more.
Sally Govender
Spent a lovely evening for my sisters birthday recently. Food delicious big portions and very tasty. Waiters were amazing. Chicken and prawns a big hit.
Taniko Gough
Prawns are amazing . Really enjoy coming here on payday for dinner . Only set back grumpy , unfriendly owners . Waiters are efficient and remember patrons so you don't even need to order , your drinks just pitch up on the table as you sit down .
Liza May Collins
Their peri-peri chicken is as good as it gets. The vegetable soup - yummy, don't have the chicken soup - too thin. Portions are good, and the chips are at least not the dried out oven rubbish some restaurants are serving nowadays. The seafood platters, steak are excellent but the shredded cod dish not good (Haven't tried their boiled / grilled codfish.) Portions nice sized. Very nice Portuguese atmosphere. There is sometimes live music on the week-ends where the whole family including granny gets up to dance. As I love Portuguese food, I have been numerous times to all restaurants in the area and it compares favourably to Troyeville hotel (because of atmosphere on the week-ends) and the restaurant in Queen street (better portion sizes). Very good value for money overall
