Back when I first started going to Bairrada, the 1/2 chicken dinner with potatoes & rice cost a whopping $7.00. The price has slowly increased and is now $10.00. Still a really good deal considering the quality of the food and the fact that one order feeds 2 people with average appetites and you still have leftovers!
The patio in the summer is a well kept secret (well, not anymore now that I outed it on Yelp :)). Its a hidden oasis with a lovely Japanese garden to look at while you enjoy your lovely meal.
The house salad leaves much to be desired - it often comes drenched in oil. One dish I also like to order is the grilled sardines. Squeeze a little lemon & serve w/ rice. YUM.
Whatever you do, don't forget to ask for some piri-piri sauce. Its excellent poured all over your food. I like to smear it on my bread instead of butter.
Plan ahead - there are often lineups out the door. But in case you're a poor planner, not to worry - they have take out!
