Booked the Flames Castle for a special occasion. Getting seated and having drink orders taken was…read moreall good. However, on the down side the service was not very good. There was plenty of wait staff on site but communication between staff was quite poor. No one ever came by to see if we needed anything or to ask if we wanted additional drinks or the like. So we found ourselves having to constantly hail wait staff. A large portion of the weekend buffet was seafood. You would expect that when serving lobster and crab the tableware would include for seafood crackers. This is not the case. I asked for seafood crackers from two different wait staff and was advised they didn't have any. So I went to the matre d' and asked, she went into the back and brought some out for our table. If you serving lobster and crab, the restaurant should either provide crackers or pre- cut the claws ready to eat. With regard to the food, I would have thought they would have served some rolls or bread but we had to ask for this special. As well, most all the food was cold. So all in all, I expected more but a 3 star rating is about all I would give.

Been wanting to try this seafood buffet for a while now and it is very difficult to get a hold of…read morethem by phone to book for reservation, but finally we got one and came early dinner on a Friday around 5:30pm. They are doing a promo currently $50pp as its usually I believe $70pp. The interior is old school vibe church decoration feeling with some antique stuff. I'm here for the food and not much on the decor tbh. The spread is all laid out in a L format. Its not the typical buffet spread of having appetizers, mains and desserts and such. In fact, I didn't see any desserts but you can order for additional cost. Appetizers I guess are the salads... There were a few meat options there, but I was there for the seafood spread... They had octopus chunks, squid rings, shrimp, cold crab legs, lobster with tomalley, fish, mussels... Surprisingly, i thought the octopus, squid was quite good in taste and texture. The lobster was a bit tough like the old Mandarin buffet days with overcooked lobster but had tomalley to enjoy if you like that. Overall, I think its simple spread but enjoyable. For the promo price point its good. They also have live music performance as well. Better to go early so the food doesn't get cold and less crowded.

The chicken was tender, succulent and juicy. Felt it came right off the grill in the back. The spicy sauce was superb and the rice and potatoes were a great addition to the balance of the meal. I ate a bite of my friend's coleslaw (which I heard wasn't traditional Portuguese) but it was just the right consistency and creamy. The price was affordable too! Costed only $18 and change however they packed the tray full. I've had to finish the rest for dinner. The cashier was really patient with us after we asked numerous questions before ordering. The service was extremely quick and efficient. Nothing to complain about at all! Definitely coming back here with friends and family! Im looking forward to come back to try some Portuguese tarts.

We arrived at 3:30pm, ordered our drinks and then our food. An HOUR LATER I asked the waiter where our food was and she said " Oops, we gave your food to another table and you will have to wait another 15 minutes We asked the manager what happened and he said " that's just the way it is" I then asked the dumb owner and he arrogantly said "well we have been in business for 40 years and we please most people " No " I'm sorry, let me make it right" This just reinforced how low iq and ignorant Portuguese people are. We happily left and enjoyed a great meal elsewhere. I will not recommend this shitty establishment to anyone looking for a good Portuguese meal as there are many others to choose from. By the way, I am also Portuguese.....

I've been holding off doing reviews because we've now been back at least half a dozen times. Instead of listing what we ate....at this point we've basically tried everything on their menu, including the seafood rice for 2 (really it's more like for 4). Not knowing anything about Portuguese wines, we've also tried both white and red wines at the waitress' recommendations - all good. Do make reservations on the weekend - it's not a big restaurant but I'm always amazed how the 3 of them took care of everyone without skipping a beat. These days with staffing shortage I've been to places with more wait staff that couldn't keep up like these 3 ladies do. Great 360 experience!

Excellent Portuguese Restaurant!!…read more They have an a la cart menu and on Friday a seafood buffet style, Saturday and Sunday they have a meat and seafood buffet style. The buffet style (because of Covid) they bring the food to you like Brazilian. They have a salad bar inside with a lot of selections like Octopus, rice, carrots, asparagus, salad etc. On the patio the servers walk around and slice up the 15 different kinds of food like Picanha, lamb, bacon wrapped chicken, bacon wrapped fillet mignon, whole bunch of different beef options, then they have whole shrimp, squid, octopus and small Lobster tails. And at the end they have pineapple dusted with sugar and cinnamon, really good Everything was great. And tasted really good. I mean way too much food for $55 I have a lot of pictures see below.

It's cafeteria style, but because of how fast they sell, nothing seems to sit and the food is consistently on a fresh rotation. I got the 1/4 chicken meal with two sides, potatoes & veggies and the flavors were on point. 10/10. I also bought a beef puff, which was just okay imo but it seemed to be sitting for a while so it wasn't as fresh. They give you very generous portions for the plates. No seating is available inside but they have 3 tables that can fit 2-3 people right outside their front door. Seems to be extremely popular with locals of all backgrounds and I can see why! It'd be nice if they stayed open a bit later but I'd definitely put this place at the top of my list of food options if I'm in the area again.
