Ca' Dju — Restaurant in Boa Vista

This is a really beautiful restaurant, it has been a long time in the making and the love, care and attention to detail in this place is second to none.

The atmosphere is wonderful, warm and intimate with really lovely staff and an amazing mother-daughter team who had a vision and together they’ve created a masterpiece!

There was a cockroach in the bathroom. Disappointing, obviously overpriced for ridiculous portions and painfully slow service. Been in Cabo Verde two weeks never had...

A new and very welcome addition to the somewhat limited restaurant scene in Sal Rei. Owned and led by the charming mother/ daughter combination ,Sandra and Melissa, they have created an elegant restaurant in the heart of town. Beautiful dining room which as a first in The town actually has gorgeous comfortable seats. They have wisely recruited the island renowned chef Lito who has helped them develop an excellent and exciting menu with something for everyone. The highlights for me last night were the arancini, succulent chicken skewers and the best filet mignon( with a delicious pepper sauce on the side) that I’ve had in many years on the island. I urge you all to head to this lovely new establishment and I’m sure you won’t be...
