The place specializes in food from northern Portugal's Minho region we ate Arroz de Linguerão which is a dish made with razor clams and rice seasoned with saffron and cilantro. It was to die for! We also had Vinho Verde Tinto which was served in a small ceramic bowl which I was informed is the traditional manner to serve it in the Minho.

Pastries de Bacalhau - the crust was not brown enough. May be longer time. The stuffing was flavorful but it's more the cod taste than the flavored mash potatoes which I prefer. I actually prefer the other local restaurant I tried the night before better. Caldo Verde - The potatoe part of the soup is great. Perfect viscosity but the flavor is not. It wasn't salty enough but more importantly is the flavor of the veggies and the spicy sausage they supposed to use that makes the soup taste different. Grilled giant pawns - The flavor of the prawns is not as intense as expected and hope to be. The squid ink pasta also lacked of flavor. That's disappointing. With the prawns, they should at least use the prawn shell to make sauce for the pastas. The pasta was tasteless, didn't even use enough garlic and olive oil to flavor it up. Seafood rice - Another disappointment. They used fish, small mussels and little bit of shrimp pieces along with some bigger whole shrimps and mussels. However, the rice was lack of the true seafood flavor that made from shell fish. They also added cilantro which overwhelmed the whatever left of seafood flavor. The lemonade was not a sweet lemonade but sour. Fyi. It's not fair we just went to another restaurant in the neighborhood and everything was so much better but people should know.

It feels very local, servers/bartenders don't even speak english but they do understand. They have great tasting and good quality food. We ate at the bar area, a lot of locals drinking and seems like catching up (can't understand but it seems like good friends meeting up) the bar was full and people don't mind standing. We have shrimps with garlic (sooo good!!!) and grilled salmon (a little salty but with some oil and lemon it's really good). From where we from(las vegas) you can only have this quality food from nicer restaurants. Will highly recommend this place to people looking for real local restaurant.

We chose Brilhante to celebrate our wedding anniversary, expecting an upscale dining experience…read morethat would match the restaurant's reputation. Unfortunately, the evening was a complete disappointment. To start, we ordered scallops with a lemongrass emulsion. There was absolutely no trace of lemongrass in the dish, which made it feel poorly executed and misleading from the very beginning. For the main course, we specifically booked the restaurant looking forward to the beef Wellington to share. To our astonishment, we were told it had run out. This might be understandable if you are in a cheap joint asking for the "dish of the day," but it is simply unacceptable in a restaurant that positions itself as upscale. Ironically, I then ordered what appears to be one of their flagship dishes--a "marble steak" with a fried egg on top--which turned out to be a complete failure. While the meat itself was cooked to the right point, it was surprisingly difficult to cut--even with a steak knife--which raises questions about the quality of the cut if this is meant to be a sirloin. The sauce was very poorly executed, and the fried egg on top was greasy and overcooked, bringing the whole dish down. The issues didn't stop there. The wine list on their website is not up to date, and the wine we intended to order was no longer available. This lack of accuracy adds to the overall sense of disorganization. To make matters worse, we were charged for the couvert that we didn't even touch--something that feels inappropriate given the already disappointing experience. At that point, we were so let down that we chose to pay the bill and leave, skipping dessert altogether. Aside from the decor and the table we were assigned, which were the only positive aspects, the experience was extremely poor. Based on this visit, I would rate it 2 out of 5 and would not recommend it.
