A neighbourhood grill,
Portuguese to the bone.

A churrasqueira is a Portuguese kitchen built around one thing — an open charcoal fire that cooks slow and dresses everything in smoke. Ours sits on College Street in the middle of Little Portugal, quietly doing the job it was built to do: BBQ and rotisserie fare, cooked over live coals, served the way it's meant to be served.

No white tablecloths. No table service, either — you order at the counter, grab a cold cerveja, and the food comes out honest. That's the whole idea.

An easygoing Portuguese eatery with a patio & limited indoor seating serving BBQ & rotisserie fare. — Google listing, verbatim

Come in for lunch, come in for dinner, come in on your own — the room is set up for solo diners as much as for a whole table. Take it home if you'd rather; delivery is on too. The grill doesn't care where you eat, only that it's hot when it gets to you.

On the Grill

Cooked over
live coals.

The menu leans on the two things a churrasqueira is built to do well — grill and rotisserie, done to order, sized for a quick lunch or a real dinner.

01 / Grelha

BBQ from the charcoal grill

The house specialty — proteins straight off the grelha, marked by the coals and finished fast so nothing dries out. Portuguese-style, no frills, plenty of heat.

02 / Espeto

Slow-turned rotisserie

The other half of a churrasqueira: birds and cuts turned slow over open flame until the skin crackles and the fat renders. Made for takeout or the table.

Dine-in · Takeout · Delivery
03 / A Mesa

Casual, counter-served

Order at the counter, find a seat inside or grab the patio when the weather turns. It's not fancy — it's not trying to be. Solo diners always welcome.
