About Casa do Prego

Informal Portuguese food done properly, in a tiled room that fills fast enough to put queues on the pavement most evenings. The piri piri prawns are what the kitchen is best known for — the sauce runs hotter than most places in town — and the tuna steak and the prego itself are close behind, with tables around you almost always carrying one or the other. The Cheesecake de Mojito is the dessert people keep mentioning, and it earns it. Gluten-free options are available and plentiful enough that a group with dietary needs will not be scrambling. Book ahead for dinner: the wait without a reservation runs to around thirty minutes.

Casa do Prego is the neighbourhood spot done right — unhurried, unpretentious, with a wine list that gives it an edge over most of its category.

In the last 90 days, Casa do Prego has drawn 34 substantial written reviews (50+ characters of genuine feedback) — recent momentum that is one of the signals behind its place on the hot list.
