No reviews on TripAdvisor yet. The Yelp reviews looked reasonable and legit. I'd give it a try if I lived close by in Pittsburgh. I don't know the finer distinctions of Azores vs. mainland Portuguese food, but they have polvo! Mmmmm, octopus. And now that I look at their website, I see the Bolo Levado. I think I had one of those in Porto from a food truck run by two people that I think were from the Azores.

In my locale, there are more people from the Azores than live in the Azores. One big difference is in how they make Kale Soup. In Azores the Kale is pronounced like it is a regular Kale and bean soup. I am told the favish is done different as well.
