"Opened in Cypress Park by the Last Word Hospitality team and Portugal native co-owner Mike Santos, this Lisbon-inspired spot centers on snack-focused Portuguese fare and a sherry-forward beverage program. The menu highlights buttered sardine toast, head-on prawns, bacalao fritters and piri-piri chicken, while wine director Evelyn Goreshnik programs sherry, port and Madeira to pair. The space is built around a bar tiled in blue-and-white hand-painted ceramics evocative of coastal Lisbon, and the team plans a neighboring neighborhood slice shop next door." - ByKate Kassin
