One word is enough to always describe our Ferreira Café experience: IMPECCABLE we always start the evening with a glass of white port and then the crispy octopus and the Morue Noire as our main dish- tastefully prepared and presented- the server was very friendly and we made it all the way to dessert delicious pasteis de nata and citrus sorbet - a great evening - we’ll be back no doubt

Went to a date with my girlfriend there and we had a very nice and private place as I requested when doing the reservation, and the staff was very nice and making sure regularly that we had everything we needed. This might actually be the best place where I had a date night and plan to go back as soon as I can
