Located in Chiado, Cantinho do Avillez is a welcoming place where tradition meets modernity. Quality is a priority with chef José Avillez, and nothing is left to chance. Its cuisine is mostly Portuguese-inspired but also influenced by the chef’s travels abroad. Its menu offers a wide choice of appetizers, pregos (steak sandwiches), entrées, main dishes and desserts, so that the gastronomic experience is different with each visit. Its service, friendly and informal, contributes to its cheerful and relaxed atmosphere. Its undisputed favourites: Deep fried green beans with tartar sauce, Marinated scallops with avocado, Sautéed poultry livers with onion and Port reduction, Cod with bread crumbs, LT egg and “exploding” olives, Portobello mushrooms risotto with parmesan and basil and Hazelnut.
