When you come to Macau🇲🇴 you have to try a Portuguese restaurant
Portuguese cuisine can also be called one of Macau’s major specialties.
📍The restaurant has two branches, one in Peninsula and one in Taipa. We went to the Taipa branch, which is about 10-15 minutes walk from the Galaxy. It is very convenient. It is not recommended to take a taxi because there are many one-way lanes in Macau and it is not cost-effective to take a taxi.
☎️Because this restaurant is quite famous, it is recommended to call before going to inquire whether there is a queue.
🏡We went there during the Chinese New Year. The restaurant was decorated with some festive decorations, and the warm yellow lights made it very atmospheric to take photos.
🍱My most recommended dishes are Western fried clams and wood bran pudding
Stir-fried clams with onions and garlic make a delicious and rich soup
The pudding is as dense as ice cream and has a moderate sweetness from the wood bran.
I personally don’t recommend the top 1 Portuguese chicken. For Cantonese people, it just doesn’t taste like chicken.
The seafood rice is quite good as every grain of rice is wrapped in juice, making every grain plump.
Generally speaking, Bay Restaurant is a restaurant that you can try, but it is not a must-eat.
The restaurant is in a remote old town area, not crowded, and it was very quiet to dine in this restaurant. I was just passing by and saw a restaurant with very stylish decoration and bursts of food aroma wafting out. I was very interested and wanted to try it, so I ordered stuffed crab shell and suckling pig with rice. The crab shell was stuffed with crab meat and then fried. It was crispy on the outside and hot on the inside, and the taste and temperature of every bite were the same. The suckling pig with rice, the suckling pig had crispy skin and tender meat, although not every piece had the same crispy skin and tender meat. The skin of thick meat was not crispy, and the skin of thin meat was quite crispy.

Before ordering, I opened the reviews and found that everyone said it was expensive. After reading the comments from netizens, I ordered half a portion of crab porridge (they said the portion was large) and a portion of shrimp noodles. The waitress asked me if I wanted vegetables or anything else. Because I was with my child and he was picky about food, and the guide said the portion was large, I insisted not to ask for more, and the waitress ignored me. ! !
Crown Bistro is a very famous restaurant in Macau. The ingredients are fresh, delicious and especially tasty. They are all traditional dishes, but the quality is outstanding and the price-performance ratio is also very high. The crab porridge is delicious and the recommended dishes are amazing!

This restaurant is located in the Ascott Hotel. You have to walk in from the lobby and take the elevator to the first floor to get there. There were many people ordering dinner in the evening. I ordered their famous Portuguese chicken with coconut flavor, codfish balls, and seafood risotto. They all tasted really good. Except for being expensive, I have no complaints.
It will be easier to find it if you search Ascott directly on the map~
Take the elevator to the first floor and you can see the Harvest Terrace restaurant. There are not many people, and Ctrip has a set meal for two people. The portion is touching😶Two people ate until they leaned against the wall to leave, and we couldn’t waste food lol
Except for the baked mussels, I personally felt that they were a little greasy, but everything else was highly praised

A time-honored Portuguese restaurant in Macau, a specialty store officially recognized by relevant authorities. The restaurant is located near Guanye Street, with a superior geographical location. The restaurant is spacious, the decoration is retro and warm, the tiles on the columns exude a Renaissance atmosphere, and the overall dining environment is comfortable. The service is friendly and polite, and they will provide customers with explanations and recommendations on dishes as soon as they are called.
In terms of products, "Bacalhau Balls" is one of the classic Portuguese dishes. It is made by mixing cod and mashed potatoes, adding seasonings to make balls, and then coating them with flour and egg liquid, and deep-frying them until golden and crispy. The taste is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, fresh and delicate. The Bacalhau Balls here are quite authentic; "Portuguese Chicken" is one of the signature dishes. The curry is slightly spicy and sweet. The chicken absorbs the essence of the spices and is tender and juicy. It's okay; "Red Wine Braised Oxtail" is a dish that I personally like very much. The oxtail is tender and tasty, and the tendons retain a little toughness. With the rich red wine sauce, the taste is richer, which is good; "Western Fried Rice" has a soft texture, and the addition of bacalhau and spices makes the overall aroma overflowing, and the taste is just right;
The overall dining process is pleasant, the taste of the products is authentic, the portion of the dishes is moderate, the price is a bit expensive, and there is a service charge, but it is still worth trying
The Portuguese cuisine in Macau is not authentic Portuguese cuisine. The Portuguese traveled across the sea and collected spices and cooking techniques along the way. They combined Portugal, Africa, and Southeast Asia, and finally integrated Macau’s local ingredients and cooking, gradually forming a special cuisine. It’s called Portuguese cuisine.
Ma Jiexiuqiu
Bacalhau (Portuguese: Bacalhau) is salted cod and is the main ingredient in many Macau Portuguese delicacies. The ingredients are composed of horseradish, potato, onion, egg, garlic, white pepper, bean powder and other ingredients. When you take a bite, you can see the shreds of fish, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and the crispy texture makes you want to eat one after another.
Baked Portuguese Chicken
It is full of ingredients, including chicken legs, potatoes, coconut milk, onions, olive oil, turmeric powder, and curry. The sauce is similar to Nanyang vegetables and tastes like a light curry aroma. The tender and juicy chicken is coupled with rich coconut milk. It’s fragrant and super refreshing when paired with fried rice.
Portuguese Sausage Risotto
Unlike Taiwanese risotto, Portuguese risotto is more like Taiwanese risotto. The sauce is mixed with rice grains and long rice is used. The ingredients of risotto include Portuguese sausage, black olives, green peppers, carrots, onions and other ingredients. The taste is a sour and sweet tomato sauce flavor, with a strong sour taste, a refreshing taste and the rice grains are not soggy.

The restaurant next to Macau Black Sand Beach is a good place to eat after strolling around the beach. It opens around lunch time, so you don't have to come early. The environment is good, the food is good, and the price is not expensive.
The Portuguese restaurant next to the Hac Sa Beach in Coloane is far from the city, but many people come here to eat there. There was a long queue before the restaurant opened. Fortunately, the restaurant is big enough. I don't know much about Portuguese food, but I think it tastes good.

This Portuguese restaurant is located in the South Bay area of Macau Peninsula.
[Environment] Very good.
[Service] Average. OK.
[Taste] The meat is a little salty. But understandable. It's authentic Portuguese food.
Overall very good. I saw many local Portuguese people eating it.
A typical old colonial clubhouse building, the environment is quiet and elegant. It is an authentic Portuguese restaurant. Some important meetings and discussions are held in this place. Sometimes the gallery holds art exhibitions. The restaurant has a dress code.

Portuguese food is a must-try when traveling to Macau. The Rooster Portuguese Restaurant is definitely recommended. In comparison, this restaurant seems to have a slightly better dining environment than the one on Avenida de Almeida Ribeiro.
Portuguese chicken and seafood rice are must-orders, and the rest can be ordered according to your taste... Bacalhau balls and appetizer bread are both good, and I recommend you give them a try. Of course, a bottle of Portuguese red wine would be perfect.
This restaurant has several branches, and there are waiters on both peninsulas. They basically speak English, probably locals. The restaurant's decoration is mainly blue. The Greek steak is not big.

The old house has a strong Portuguese style, and what sells it more is the environment and service. The waiters are very considerate and timely ❤
The food is not bad, but it is too expensive. I feel ripped off by Twelve Ways of Fengwei.
ALBERGUE 1601, which specializes in traditional Portuguese cuisine, is located in Fengtang Alley. This place used to be a nursing home. The buildings in the entire community are very Portuguese and European, and the dining atmosphere is first-class at night.
ALBERGUE 1601 has a variety of dishes, which are not expensive. They are both visually enjoyable and Portuguese.
Recommended seafood risotto, baked duck rice, potato shreds, egg cod, and spicy grilled chicken.
In particular, the grilled octopus uses the thickest part of the octopus tentacles. The way of eating and the taste are different from those of ordinary Japanese cuisine. The octopus in Portuguese cuisine is relatively soft and cooked. After grilling, the outer layer will be slightly burnt, so it is very flavorful and the rich taste is unforgettable.
For appetizers, we recommend octopus salad. The dessert platter has 4 desserts from ALBERGUE 1601. The pudding is naturally the most popular. The pudding comes from Portugal, but it has been carried forward in Macau.

Speaking of Macau Guanye Street delicacies, I can talk about it for 3 hours! Among them, we have to mention 🇲🇴Macau Puppet Portuguese Restaurant🇲🇴, which has won the hearts of half of TVB for its authentic Portuguese cuisine. Even Eric Tsang, Jacky Cheung, Joey Yung and others are regular customers🌝
The typical yellow and white Portuguese architecture, all European wooden window frames, are filled with Portuguese atmosphere from the inside out. Whether it is a tourist check-in or a family and friends dinner, it is a good choice✅
🦀️Curry Crab🦀️
Since you are at the Puppet Portuguese Restaurant, you naturally have to try the famous curry crab. The hard crab shell cannot hide the tender and fresh meat. The rich curry penetrates into every strand of crab claw meat, which makes people salivate.
🍗Baked Portuguese Chicken🍗
A signature dish of Macau cuisine that combines Chinese and Portuguese cuisine. The tender and juicy chicken is topped with a coconut-flavored curry sauce, which takes the taste to the next level. Give me a bowl of white rice and it will definitely be "covered with juice"🍚
🥩Beef ribs🥩
Pre-marinated beef ribs, any sauce seems a bit redundant, just pick up a knife and fork and eat it. The correct way to open it is to pick up a knife and fork and eat it. The outside is crispy and the inside is tender and soft. The rich gravy fills the tip of the tongue, and meat lovers will be very satisfied🤰
[Taste] The taste is delicious, the boss is enthusiastic, I brought my best friend here and was very satisfied. I will come again next time.
[Environment] The environment is beautiful and romantic
[Service] The service is considerate.
