Restaurante Frango à Guia — Restaurant in Sesimbra

This restaurant is a must try if you’re visiting Sesimbra. As soon as we walked in Hugo was very welcoming and set the tone for our wonderful dining experience here.

I definitely recommend asking Hugo/your waiter for their recommendations as the red fruit sangria is a must try as well as the passion fruit sangria.

I did not notice the significant different except it having a lot of bone and not very much meat. Second was the mulho, was garlic based liquid, thats it.

I would have rather gone to a good churrascaria to have cripsy and tender frango assado, batata frita, and a 2L Coca-Cola. I would have saved myself from all this overhyped chicken in a garlic bath and a couple of bucks.

Bacalhau a bras on the other hand was very nice and would return again for that.

Minus 1 star 🌟 for the overhyped talk of the village bony chicken, and long...
