Dom Francisco Restaurante

Food is great. As a non-local for a restaurant with this reputation we were expecting the wait staff be More approachable and friendly.

We had a long layover in Brasilia Airport, so we decided to take advantage and have dinner. We were looking for a restaurant that participated in the Associação dos Restaurantes da Boa Lembrança (I collect their plates) and Dom Francisco was the only one we contacted that actually had the plate available. How lucky for us!!! The food was absolutely superb! I had the bacalhau, which was served with a shredded potato rosti and a mild sauce and my wife had the wild boar(!), which was served with grilled polenta. The boar was literally falling off the bone; the polenta was crunchy outside and creamy inside, accompanied by a demi-glace that was as delicious as the boar. The cod was lovely, golden, tender and flaky. We finished it all off with a wonderful crème brûlée, done tableside. The restaurant also has a very impressive wine menu, with many outstanding wines from around the world. Service, unsurprisingly, was also excellent.

Excellent service. Food was amazing.

This is really nice place, the food was superb.

The best Portuguese restaurant in Brazil! Fantastic codfish!!

Just like always

Gostei muito de tudo, em especial o ótimo atendimento dos garçons. Era aniversário de uma amiga, já havia sido feito a reserva dos lugares e fomos muito bem acolhidos. Numa escala de zero a dez, diria que o prato, em geral, foi nove. Mas, pode chegar a dez. Talvez, a escolha pré encomendada não era bem o que eu pediria. Às vezes, é somente isso. Enfim, recomendo, sim, o lugar.

Sempre uma boa opção com pratos saborosos e bom atendimento
