Bairro Alto - Menu

Had lunch here with a friend, cheap, okay food which wasn't very Portuguese, but good quality and quite filling. Great deal, nice food. Would definitely try again. Nice neighborhood for a lazy Sunday afternoon, too.

I had dinner in this place, but we only had different tapas and sangria. The tapas were all tasty, speciallly the grilled the Calamari. The service was kind of slow because it was very crouded, but the food its good.

Although the interior is a bit over the top the flair sends your mind and soul to a Portuguese harbour. The grilled food (meat and fish) is amazing (swims in oil and garlic). The old (very skilled waiter) has a family business wibe that is complemented by his younger crowd staff:-) View menu

This restaurant offers a wide selection of good Portugese food for an attractive price. The decoration is typically Portugese, the chairs and tables simple. Do not expect a lot of fuzz, they leave you in peace enjoying the food. The wine list is limited but nice, ideal when you want to jump in to have something different without being robbed.

We found this charming Portuguese restaurant whilst looking for somewhere to eat in the Sternschanze district. What a find! I had Cataplana, a Portuguese fish stew speciality and my other half had the swordfish (2 steaks!). There was lots of choice available on the menu. We took up the offer of a Caprainha cocktail to round off the meal which was very reasonably priced. Overall a brilliant little eating establishment in probably my favourite area for eating out on an evening in Hamburg.

I've been there three times and they never seem to fail. I always buy the tapas dishes, the food is very simple, they obviously let the quality of the ingredients speak for itself, no extra fancy stuff (that no-one really needs), just good food and friendly staff. And as an added bonus, the dishes are very inexpensive. If you go there then i recommend the grilled squid and the chorizo.As i said the servers are really friendly and if you are lucky they might just offer you Portuguese Brandy on the house as a desert.

Both me and my wife had grilled fish, one kind each, and both fish very just about grilled to perfection. The little salat and the sangria we had where also good.But the potatoes, the spinache and the carrots served with the fish where just not ok. The potatoes where supposed to be salty potatoes, I had to put salt on them, the spinache was not prepared good enough, and the carrots where just plain boring.I think the restaurant has a lot of potential, but they do need to do better than they did when we where served.

......20 minutes I spent eating possibly the best paella I've had in a long time and I hadn't even made a dent in it. It had me beaten. We chose to eat here on spec after wandering past the place. We were early and thankfully so, as they were turning people away an hour later. Might I suggest you get here before 8pm. The place has a great atmosphere, lovely staff and is warm and comfortable. The tables are a little close together, but hey.We ordered the pork with clams and the paella for one. Both were fantastic. Ive always been able to put my food away but the portions were huge. Make sure you're hungry.The house wine was drinkable and pleasant, there is a great choice of beers and to cap a...

We were looking for a place to eat in the Sternschanze area and everywhere appeared to be fit to burst. This was place was absolutely bursting at the seams but we were told we could be seated which was good of them I suppose. I have never seen so many tables squeezed into a small space. You felt like you were having an intimate meal with the others around you (about an inch of a gap between the tables) and the waiting staff could barely move. Maybe a bit too much of profiting over customer experience.There were only 2 members of staff working the whole restaurant which was totally absurd. I actually watched as he would help prepare food in the kitchen as well as try to deal with service. You... View menu
