Cafe Algarve is not a cafe is in the sense of a North American coffeehouse nor one of the fabled…read morecafes in the big cities in Portugal, such as the Cafes A Brasileira, Suiza, Nicola, or Majestic. It is, as others have said, a neighborhood grocery store / cafe that is unmistakably and authentically Portuguese. Its name, Cafe Algarve, refers to the beachy area in the south of Portugal. However, a poster map of Baixa Pombalina, the Baixa district of Lisbon rebuilt after the 1755 earthquake under the direction of the Marques de Pombal, will be looking at you from the cash register. Locals coming from Portugal definitely frequent this business, close to the intersection of Broadway and Commercial Drive, and many speak in their native language. The owners and the patrons are very friendly. One should stop by to try a pastry and some coffee ... or tea. Also, if you've ever tried, and liked, Sumol, the Portuguese soft drink which comes in orange, pineapple, and passion fruit, you can buy it here. You can also buy other groceries. I recommend coming in the morning for the pastry and coffee. The pastries are pasteis de nata, the traditional Portuguese custard tarts "born" in Lisbon's Belem district, and it's impossible to eat just one. So, for an inexpensive pastry and coffee, meeting some nice folks from across the Atlantic, and doing something atypical while in Vancity, check this place out.

The chicken was perfectly cooked and with the peri peri sauce, the dish packed great flavor. The brussel sprouts were alright. I was really craving a healthier dish and this hit the spot.

A combo meal consisting of double chicken legs, one side, and soda is available for $17. Our selections included the veri peri chicken legs combo with Caesar salad and coke; the chicken exhibited a slight spiciness but was fresh, hot, and juicy. The Caesar salad featured a substantial amount of dressing. The super peri chicken legs paired with peri fries and ice tea were also a highlight, with the peri fries being especially flavorful. Furthermore, the chicken Caesar wrap with Caesar salad contained a multitude of tasty ingredients. It is also worth noting that the restaurant provides complimentary refills on soda drinks. The service was characterized by its speed and friendliness.

Attention chicken lovers! One of my new favs!…read more This place is a must on a Sunday which is the only day they serve their $19.50 PCOV Portuguese Piri Piri chicken with potato crisps and salad. The chicken is flavourful and juicy and is great value as it's essentially half a chicken. Potato slices were crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. Olives, bread and packaged butter are complimentary. On their appetizers list, we had a delicious Deep Fried Cod Cake ($9), and $19 Clams steamed in white wine, with garlic and cilantro. If you love garlic, the leftover sauce is perfect for dipping your bread in. Both are recommended starters. Highly recommend a Sunday visit, if you love Nando's or interested in trying flavourful Portuguese chicken with South African spices. Just a warning it may not be the quickest meal. The room was packed on the Sunday I was there and the friendly server was hard to contact for additional requests. The restaurant is open to the public and not just for paid members.

I recently tried the peri peri fries which the staff described as seasoned fries. It was so good! Crispy on the outside and fluffy soft inside. The seasoning was tasty. I tried the peri tamer baste on the chicken and I didn't like it much. It had a sweet taste to it. I had to dip the meat into the garlic medium sauce to counter the sweetness. I prefer the mango lime baste which is more tangy. This place got busier after 6 pm with 90% of the tables taken. It also had lots of pick up orders which seemed non stop in the hour we were there.

They sell a bunch of Brazilian snacks but overall the inside of the store looked worn out. We came in on a Sunday morning and no one was at the front. I rang the bell and a young girl came to take our order. She was sweet but looked very stressed. She ran to the back and was on the phone with her boss frantically asking for help. She then came running out and told us it'll be a wait because she needs to get a big order out. I replied no problem and went to grab a seat. After awhile I rang the bell again and asked for a refund and said I would return another time. The girl said she could make the food now. The next few minutes all we heard was the microwave constantly going off and it was clear nothing was made fresh. Feijoada: apparently this is their most popular dish and I liked the vibrant colours. However the pork was overcooked and nothing tasted fresh except for the slice of orange. Strogonoff: the creamy sauce was not bad but it was so salty we were really thirsty after. The chicken was overcooked. Coxinha: I was excited to try tradition Brazilian croquettes but these were clearly frozen and again didn't taste fresh.

It is a type of pepper that comes from Africa as per one of the Nando employee that I met at one of the Nando's Yelp event I went to a year back (Not at this location). Everytime, I come to Nando I always order their chicken. I mean that is what they are known for. I usually have them make my chicken with the garlic and herb sauce while B would have his Extra Hot. If you want the best deal get the whole chicken and share it. If you like specific part of the chicken then just get that specific part of the chicken. I like the food at this location. They are quite generous on the sauce. Note that if you opt to have the entree without any side, it is $2.99 less than the posted price for entree + 1 side.

Most Nando's locations have different interpretations of interior design that reflects the S. African/Portuguese influence, and this location also shares this design concept! Cheerful, individualistic & user friendly! I particularly like the Chicken Liver here, its grilled to perfection, texture is creamy and rich, you will have a choice of Garlic toast or Portuguese Bun, perfect for soaking up the delicious sauce! I find the chicken here are grilled perfectly as the skin are crispier then a few other locations, even thought we have a Nando's where I live, but I will prefer to come to this location just because of this reason! Remember, you have a choice of different spicy level, I usually go for medium and ask for more spicy Peri-peri Sauce on the side, just in case you want to kick it up a few notches! Service is very friendly and all the Covid precautions were adhered, plenty of free customer parking at this mall!
