Casa do Bragal
★★ PORTUGUESE— A refined yet relaxed place serving traditional Portuguese food with a modern touch. The dining room is decorated with striking paintings by the owner, featuring portraits of Portuguese divas like fadista Mariza or "Pulp Fiction" star Maria de Medeiros. There are always seasonal variations, but roast kid is the signature dish, served with roast potatoes, rice cooked with the goat's offal, and broccoli raab. Fish options include fillets of John Dory with roe and rice, or salt cod cooked with onions and vintage port. Located east of the city center in a leafy residential suburb, it's well worth making the trip out, especially for those with a sweet tooth—the buffet of traditional deserts is legendary. Attractive terrace for pre-dinner aperitif.
