Leitao

8.2/10AmericanSpanish

AI-generated summary

Get the piri piri chicken, several people call it the best they've had. The francesinha, the truffle and the also come up. It's Portuguese, which people note is rare here, and the word regulars keep using is underrated. Sit downstairs if you can.

replying to u/THEGustavBrumholt: Shuka looks amazing! Definitely willing to travel, especially if it’s not all the way to BK or Harlem or whatever. Have you been to Shukette? Is it good too?
