The Hottest New Restaurants That Opened in March 2023 | Bon Appétit
"Should you find yourself in need of a piri-piri chicken fix in Los Angeles, Barra Santos is now open in Cypress Park. The new restaurant comes from the Last Word Hospitality team, responsible for the beloved seafood spot Found Oyster. With Barra Santos, co-owner and Portugal native Mike Santos wants to evoke the bars and restaurants of the coastal city of Lisbon. There’s a snack-focused menu with dishes like buttered sardine toast and head-on prawns from chef-partner Melissa López (previously of LA’s Bestia and New York’s Barbuto), plus a beverage program from Last Word’s wine director Evelyn Goreshnik that spans sherry, port, and Madeira. The space centers around a bar with blue-and-white hand-painted tiles reminiscent of Lisbon. Next door, the team will soon open Shin’s Pizza, a neighborhood slice shop." - ByKate Kassin
