Churrasqueira Sal na Brasa — Restaurant in Aveiro

My recent birthday celebration at Churrasqueira Sal na Brasa was an absolute success, largely thanks to their excellent service and delicious food. I booked in advance for a large group, and upon arrival, our table was perfectly prepared, and the staff even offered to store our birthday cake until later – a thoughtful touch that set a positive tone for the evening. We started with some appetizers before diving into the main courses. My girlfriend and I shared two dishes: the Picanha (top sirloin cap) and Bifes de Peru (turkey steaks). The meat was exceptional, especially the Picanha, which was cooked to perfection and incredibly flavorful. The entire table was impressed with their meals, and everyone had more than enough side dishes to feel completely satisfied. While we brought our own birthday cake, the staff was still incredibly accommodating, providing everything we needed to enjoy it comfortably. The service throughout the evening was consistently friendly and attentive, making us feel well-cared for. The restaurant itself had warm lighting and a comfortable ambiance, contributing to a relaxed and enjoyable dining experience. Churrasqueira Sal na Brasa delivered on all fronts for a memorable...

Was staying locally for the weekend in Aveiro and looking for a place to eat . This restaurant was one of the hotel's recommendations.

Declined the starter meats and bread which is offered to diners and went straight for the main course from the wide ranging choice of meals in the menu - half a grilled chicken served with boiled rice and chips and a green salad (had to check whether it was served with any side dishes because the menu wasn't clear). The half chicken arrived in 3-4 pieces from memory, was cooked well. For those who like wine with their meal, the restaurant carries a selection of wines with quite a few visible on display.

Overall, the meal was filling and reasonably priced were a wide range of diners of all ages - couples and families. Service was friendly with a good vibe and the restaurant was well staffed. They were accomodating with me not being able to speak Portugese and understood my English so fair play to...

Fuimos a esta churrasqueria, porque tenía buenos comentarios, y pensábamos que los malos, quizá no fueran para tanto. Pero nos tendríamos que haber fiado más de los malos, ya que al ser españoles, nos la quisieron colar, como hemos leído en otros comentarios. Entré para preguntar si podíamos comer, ya que cerraban a las 15:00 y eran las 14:45. Me dijo que sin problema, fuimos aparcar y al entrar, nos habian hecho la del queso y las aceitunas con mantequilla, sin pedir nosotros nada, típica en muchos sitios de Portugal cuando eres de fuera (5 trozos de queso manchego, 4'50€) Por lo que les dijimos que no queríamos nada de eso, y se lo llevaron extrañados! Nos tomaron la comanda de la bebida y nos la sirvieron, nos trajo la carta una mujer rubia, para que fueramos pensando, y sin darnos ni 5 minutos, vino un hombre diciéndonos que que íbamos a tomar, que nos podia aconsejar, claro el consejo era meternos únicamente "lo más caro", la picaña o el solomillo, diciéndonos que no le quedaba nada más, teniendo en cuenta que la carta ofrecía 4 cosas, y curiosamente ni en pollo ni las costillas quedaban, cuando además la mujer que nos dio la carta no nos dijo nada de esto, ni al sentarnos y al ofrecernosla. Para lo que ofrece Portugal, mala calidad-precio, y para la cantidad que ofrecen otros sitios en Portugal, muy poca cantidad, 4 filetes para 3 personas, aunque la tercera fuera una niña, es lo mismo. Creo que a nadie le gustan que le TIMEN, y más viniendo del país vecino sintiéndonos "familia". Evidentemente no volveremos y esperamos que esto quede constancia para que no siga pasando, porque no tiene sentido. A todos nos gusta elegir lo que queremos comer, no sentarte, ponerte aperitivos sin saber si los quieres, y obligarte a comer lo que ellos dicen que hay, ya que al ponerte la bebida ya te comprometen a no levantarte y decirles cuatro cosas con educación...
