Braga Portuguese Restaurant in Miami - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

The Cod was great but the sardines were awful. They had a terrible bitter taste.

I explained to waitress that I was in a rush with only 25min to spare and it was worth the random stop. The food was cooked quickly & it was surprisingly delicious. Though I was pressed with time & a bit nervous about parking at Fresco the quality is top notch. The restaurant is keep clean has elegant dinnerware & tablecloths. I'll be returning with more time so I can enjoy the variety of meals they offer. It's a small cozy restaurant & service is top notch. The small baguettes were fresh, no butter so you pour olive oil over them (even better). I had Churrasco with a small salad a glass of their House Red Wine from Portugal while my mother devoured the mixed seafood soup with same wine & boy was that flavor explosively fresh you'd say wow too! First time customer & will be returning. Give them a try. Nice place to go with a date. I visited on a Saturday around 5:30pm only 1 other couple inside & 1 customer outside. Check them out 😎👍🏼

Excellent gastronomic category place type singing of my ace in guarujá, simple and bright.

Excellent food, spectacular atmosphere and magnificent attention from Adalys!!!

Food was delicious, steak was very soft and quick service.

Braga’s is an intimate place on Coral Way -- far more relaxed than a warehouse setting. I could actually hear every word from my beloved. The chef is a magician with octopus. I had the grilled octopus sauteed with olive oil and garlic and the octopus salad: simply fabulous! They paired wonderfully with a bottle of Portuguese green wine. And the dessert was memorable… pears poached in port wine infused with cinnamon. We’d never had it before and now intend to make sure we don’t miss it again.

The food is very, very good. To me the best Portuguese restaurant in Miami. Real Portuguese food and flavor. The staff is very kind and attentive. I loved the experience and will return for sure!

Best meal I've had in Miami period.

Thank you for your wonderful service and great food. My friend and I had a delicious lunch on Sunday. The rice with seafood was delish and the pairs were so tasty. The caregivers at the ALF I visit enjoyed the rice you graciously and generously packaged for me. I'll see you soon. I have more people I want to introduce to your food. God bless ✝️

A quaint little Portuguese restaurant with wonderful service and fantastic, delicious food. Worth the 35 minute drive!!! We will be back.

Amazing authentic Portuguese food with an amazing atmosphere! Definitely a 5 star!

A beautiful place, delicious food and great service. I will definitely recommend everyone that loves seafood to try Braga restaurant. You will love this place.

As a pickie eater that I am ,It was the best meal! The meat and chicken were delicious. The service was amazing. It is a small place but the atmosphere is very friendly It is a must

Wonderful small cozy Portuguese restaurant. Food is delicious and authentic. Limited seating inside but very nice outdoor seating. Generous portions on all plates we ordered. Flan was also great!

The service was very good, we loved the food and the lunch menu is very good, super large portions, top quality ingredients and I recommend a coffee after lunch. It was very very good. Congratulations

Little piece of Portugal if you crave for bacalao

This place has really good food. They know how to make their fish really well. Everything really warm and flavorful. If you are looking for good Portuguese food this place is it.

Very well done food, one of the best octopus I have eaten. The portions are good; the service and atmosphere good, a quiet place located in a quiet place, like a hidden gem. I will come back.

Everything about this hidden gem is amazing! The steak was exceptionally prepared, the service was stellar, and the atmosphere is nice and quaint. For parking, there is free parking at the nearby grocery store.

I was debating between 3 and 4 stars for quite some time, but I am going with 4 stars because I plan on being a regular here. One big thing that you just can’t overlook about this place is the awesome ambiance. I simply love the layout and/or ambiance that makes dining in a joy. I love the small size of the location and even more the outside seating area with an overhang to protect from the elements, it’s very cozy and you still get all the best aspects of dining outside. I’ve dined in twice now and both times I sat in the outside seating area and surely had a pleasurable experience both times. I’ll warn the service is much closer to 3 stars, although the main waitress is pretty pleasant and does a good job there, I did find myself waiting a little long for small things like water, and a couple small issues with my preparation standards i.e. the circle of rice from my “Cabrito Assado” was sort of lopsided and falling apart when they served it to me (reference photos), and one of my orders of eggplant to- go came a little less well done than what it should have been and with too much oil, however I will note that I just went in last night and the chef corrected his mistake with the eggplant and it was cooked much better. Aside from that the food ingredients do seem to be quality and really most of it is quite good. I do recommend the lunch special with each dish coming in at $18 and 2 for 1 on beer and wine glasses which in my opinion is a nice kind of quaint deal, perfect for a lunch outing, and again, you will be getting your moneys worth. Additionally I do like that the owner is in much of the time to ensure that things are being run to his standards and what he likes, it also reinforces the idea that you don’t have to look very hard to find the higher up management because so often he is there. Of the five times I’ve been in I have seen him three times and that includes when I just drop in for a quick to go order, so good on him for caring enough about his restaurant to be there often. To concisely conclude my review; I gave 5 stars for ambiance, 3 stars service, and more like 4 stars for food, with the ingredients having 5 star potential (especially compared to price) however the prep in some cases does fall just a little short, but generally nothing to scoff at… I will also note that it does tend to be a notch better during the day in my experience when it seems the more permanent staff is in.

Amazing food and great service!

I was pleased to visit it. Very attentive and pleasant food

Our new favorite restaurant! Delicious food

If anyone wants to try octopus this is the place to start with, the grilled octopus appetizer was delicious, tender and juicy. Bacalhau a lagareiro was highly recommended. Snapper wasn’t as expected, would probably avoid it. Service was friendly.

Yummy food Great wine Amazing Portuguese food

Fantastic and authentic Portuguese restaurant. Highly recommend!

I was extremely sad that the other portuguese restaurant that I loved in coral gables closed. But then we found out about Braga and I have to say is just as good! The octopus is among the best I've ever had. The molotov for desert and the pastel de nata, both perfect. Definitely recommend it.

Had Grilled octopus and Portuguese sausage, was a great experience and generous wait staff.

Little piece of Portugal in Miami. Made us nostalgic about our trip. Loved seafood soup! Also, Porto was amazing, sour cherry notes.

Excellent food, original flavors and Portuguese beer!!! The host was very kind with us. The bacalao was awesome 👌

Good food, large portion, good prices

Braga is amazing if you’ve never had Portuguese food before, and you want to try something different, the bacalao is outstanding! I had the seafood parilla mixed grill Quality of the seafood was great. The flavoring was amazing. I can’t recommend this place highly enough my wife had the filet mignon. It melted in our mouths like butter. Warm and friendly servers, as well as a cozy and inviting atmosphere. If you don’t check this place out, you’re definitely missing out on a great experience!

Fuimos mi familia y yo ayer 28. Me encantó la comida , el servicio y el ambiente, lo recomiendo totalmente y la atención de Idalys espectacular , ella es única, hacía mucho tiempo w no nos sentíamos tan a gusto.

This place is spectacular, the food is exquisite, but Idalys' attention, dedication, kindness and professionalism makes it even more special. I recommend it 100%, and I would go a thousand times more.

Service was amazing and the entire atmosphere of the restaurant is great. The food is wonderful and is truly a wonderful restaurant!

Wonderful restaurant!!! Better than dinning in Portugal. They should create a membership because I am always dinning there. Love it!!!

Great food excellent service. Highly recommended 👌 👍

Great service, and good food.. Atmosphere is casual and very mix family-friendly. The owner is always there.

Não fosse eu de Braga em Miami 😜 amei muito bom......

Restaurante simplesmente espetacular. João atendendo é uma simpatia. Recomendou o bacalhau a lagareiro que estava maravilhoso. Excelente custo benefício, vale muito a visita.

This is our favorite Portuguese in the Miami area. They are a small place where everything is cooked fresh. I love all the dishes I tasted but the Bacalhau à Lagareiro and the grilled octopus are my favorites. And of course a chilled glass of vino verde! 😋

I was driving around and spotted this place and decided to give it a try. For my surprise this place turned to be a hidden gem. Food and service were both fantastic.

If you like Portuguese food, you should go! An excellent food!

Great hidden gem with incredible authentic Portuguese food. Best cod in Miami, hands down.

Awesome food. Big portions and friendly service. We loved the grilled octopus and the shrimp and squid espetada, so flavorful!!

맛있어요. Arroz 종류 위주로 드시면 딱 한국인이 좋아하는 그 맛..

The food was delicious. Loved the grilled sardines

Nice little place with great Portuguese food and friendly staff! The octopus is great!! Every dish we tried was very good

Appetizer was very good. O bacalhau com Natas não estava bem Feito… muito queijo, batatas mal cozidas

Freaking love the food here and the service is always great here too. They have a lovely menu selection and their prices are very reasonable.

The most delicious Portuguese food we’ve ever had!!! My boyfriend and I enjoyed a great dinner with the best service. João was so attentive and kind, we will definitely keep coming back!

The food was good, however the portion was not proportional to the price. I ordered the lamb chop ($38), it came with 5 tinny chops, more like a sample plate or appetizer, way over priced. I am definitely not coming back, too many good restaurants options in Miami than this one.

Deliciosa Sardinha. Delicioso bolinho de bacalhau. Prato principal de bacalhau também delicioso! Obrigado Joao pelo excelente atendimento.

The best Portuguese restaurant in Miami

Delicious sea food and super friendly staff. The portions are huge. We loved it and will come back soon! Thank you for everything

"EL SECRETO MEJOR GUARDADO DE MIAMI".

Absolutely incredible food! Service was very friendly and fast. Waiter gave great recommendations. Ordered the cod fish croquettes for the appetizer and the grilled octopus for the main. Octopus was so tender I could cut through it with a spoon! Seasoned wonderfully and the grilled onions with it were so sweet they paired nicely with the rest of the dish. One of my favorite meals to date!

Como portuguesa gostei da nossa comida e com muito bom acolhimento recomendo

It is expensive but the food is worth it!! Chef. Fernando Gattorno is the best!!

The Portuguese cod fish stew and the seafood paella were outstanding dishes. The fried cod (bacalao) fritters was an excellent start to a delicious evening. Idalis, the server, was attentive, provided an excellent wine recommendation, and very pleasant. Capped off the perfect evening with a flavorful custard, coffee, and a nice port—can’t wait to return to this wonderful Portuguese bistro.

Restaurante cocina portuguesa, muy buena, bien elaborada, raciones generosas, buen servicio, muy recomendable.

This was my first time trying Portuguese food and I was disappointed! Everything was made to perfection and meat was extremely tender and juicy. Every bite was heaven.

It's always going to be a 5 star rating for this fine establishment because food is incredible and service is outstanding, time after time. I got to try the octopus in oil and white wine sauce and I wasn't disappointed. Perfectly cooked octopus, very flavorful all due to wine sauce and olive oil with a hint of garlic. I had to have the seafood rice again because I couldn't get enough of it last time I came here about 10 months ago. You get treated like family when you visit this joint and they make sure you feel special and taken care of. They're doing some minor work on the outside to make it more private but it's such a nice little cozy space outside that it feels intimate even though you're seating close to sidewalk. This has become one of my favorite hidden gems in Miami so keep it on the low low lol.
