The server asked if this was our first time dining there, and we said yes. He then explained the buffet options, drink ordering, and payment process. The buffet line had a wide variety of food choices, each labeled with the ingredients. I tried a small sample of everything, and let me tell you, I was stuffed! I didn't think I had room for dessert, but when the table next to us ordered the banoffi pie, I found a tiny bit of room, barely. The food was absolutely delicious, and the wait staff was incredibly attentive and friendly. The store we stopped in was well-lit and spacious, with plenty of tables.

So food not only tastes good, but it looks good as well. The clean, modern surroundings allow for concentration on the food. Service has always been excellent. I have eaten here three times ordering the spinach roll and the lasagna, both excellent choices. I'm returning again to try yet another of their delightful creations. Anjo Verde is fast becoming one of my favorite restaurants in Braga.
