Excelente comida e simpatia , sem duvida um marco de referencia! E pretendo voltar:)
Great food great service been eating and hanging out at Girassol since I was 6. Would recommend this restaurant to anyone for any occasion
Arrived in this neighbor for some errands and tried the cafe. Very difficult to find as the door is not obvious for tourists or non residents. Street parking and it takes time for the food to arrive. Clean environment and bathrooms. Portuguese soup very tasty and so is the Portuguese bread. We tried both grilled chicken over lettuce and seafood mix with rice. Both are fantastic. Mussels little neck clams and scallops wonderfully prepared. It's a hidden gem of new Bedford.
I had an amazing meal. The steak melted in my mouth and the rice was delicious. Highly recommend if you're looking for some great Portuguese food.
I had the kale soup that was excellent. Fish filets with potatoes & salad. Nice polite waitress. Definitely will go back.
I have gone there 4 times with my husband and another couple just in the past 6 months. We find the food delicious, abundant and affordable. The Pork Alentejana-style with little necks are the best in town. We have never had a bad experience. The service is excellent and the owner always goes around to each table greeting and asking if everything is ok.
I'd have passed this one by completely, had it not been for a rave from another restaurant owner. He told me that, of all the restaurants in the area, Girassol's was where he ate (other than his own place, of course). When I asked why, I was told that "This is the food of my home in St Michael's".
With praise like this coming from the owner of one of my area favorites, I had to check it out.
So, I went to dinner one night, on my own, to experience it. In all honesty, I thought I was in the wrong place. This is not a fancy restaurant; more of a bar with a room where you can eat.
The quality of the food and the service removed any thoughts I had of questioning his recommendation. Everything was fresh, tasty and the restaurant itself looked clean. It's hard to fault any of that.
Lessons learned: Always try to get to know the owners of your favorites and don't be afraid to ask them where they eat when they go out. Don't judge a restaurant by the way it looks, unless it looks unsanitary. You could miss out on a hidden gem.
Delicious Portuguese food at a very good price. Staff is super friendly, plate sizes are huge so be ready to take food home. They always have specials.
I had my baby's baptism party here, it's a small restaurant, very clean, and the staff were so nice. The service was fast and the food was really good.
