The Pleasure Of Good Service

Our brands

O croquete

In 2021, Portugália created a new brand based on its ex-libris: the meat croquette, almost as famous as the steak of the same house. Besides the traditional croquete Portugália presents other irresistible recipes: Spinach Croquettes, Codfish Croquettes and “Alheira” and “Farinheira” (sausages) Croquettes. Available by the dozen, individually, on the plate or in bread, it is a virtual concept, only available on delivery platform (Uber Eats).

Portugália Cervejaria

Portugália was established in Lisbon in 1925 on the famous Almirante Reis Avenue. It is a brand that inspires trust and has a long association with quality and tradition. Its tasty steaks and their secret sauce, full of history and flavour, have been famous for decades. But Portugália offers more than steaks. The quality of its seafood and carefully selected dishes chosen from the classic Portuguese cuisine conquers national and foreign customers a like.

Portugália Balcão

Portugália Balcão has a presence in the main shopping centres. And is known for its fast and efficient service, offering a selection of Portugália dishes renowned for nearly a century.

Cervejaria Trindade

Trindade is the most beautiful and oldest brewery in Portugal. Noble, democratic and popular, it is a monument of our history: it was a convent, survived an earthquake, recovered from two fires and withstood the passage of time. Today it is a brewery reborn, seafood restaurant, snack bar, bar and museum. Its great trinity continues to be steak, seafood and snacks, now accompanied by a menu designed by chef Alexandre Silva.

La Brasserie de L’entrecote

This is a French cuisine-inspired restaurant chain that was established in Lisbon, in the borough of Chiado, and has already five restaurants. With an exclusive single product concept, our Entrecôte, served with our secret sauce containing 18 ingredients, this is a unique place to have a memorable gastronomic experience. Our signature desserts and exclusive wine list have contributed to making La Brasserie de L’Entrecôte a reference point for those who seek a different and sophisticated dining experience.

Ribadouro

Its origin dates back to 1947, and since then, Ribadouro has become a true landmark Beer House and Seafood restaurant in the city of Lisbon. It is loved for its cosy and traditional environment. The seafood served at Ribadouro has brought it international fame. With a fresh and tasty selection of meals, this is the destination for those who truly appreciate seafood, snacks and good Portuguese cuisine.

Segundo Muelle

Segundo Muelle was first opened in Lima, Peru, and it already has 17 restaurants in Latin America and Europe. The cuisine is 100% Peruvian . From its Chef to the wine list, and in addition to its special ingredients, this restaurant offers a real journey into the complex and delicious landscape of Peruvian flavours, which is considered one of the most diverse and creative cuisines worldwide.
