About Casa de Chá da Boa Nova
Lunch or dinner at Casa de Chá da Boa Nova is a full commitment, and it earns every hour. The two Michelin stars belong to a kitchen that runs entirely on seafood, and the 12-course and 21-course tasting menus are the format — there is no à la carte. The sommelier handles wine pairing with a confidence that reviewers consistently place above comparable restaurants. The building itself is the other thing people cannot stop writing about — the architecture draws as much comment as the food, and the floor-to-ceiling windows frame the Atlantic directly below. Book well ahead, and arrive without a schedule.
Casa de Chá da Boa Nova lands in the category of venues that are as much about the cocktails as the food — a destination choice rather than a convenience one.
In the last 90 days, Casa de Chá da Boa Nova has drawn 19 substantial written reviews (50+ characters of genuine feedback) — recent momentum that is one of the signals behind its place on the hot list.
