Clean. Reliable. Does the job.
The "lights out missionary" of food. Spotless kitchen, decent grub. Won't blow your mind, won't disappoint.
Madeira Cafe tries to serve up authentic Portuguese vibes but falls flat in some areas. The standout dish seems to be the Polvo à Lagareiro, which Nithin found authentic yet different from what he’s had before. Sabrina and Nicola rave about the generous portions and friendly service, making it feel like a family gathering each time.
However, not all experiences are sunshine and rainbows. The food quality is inconsistent, with Rui having a nightmare with stale starters and undercooked mains. So, while it’s a decent spot for a casual meal, don’t set your expectations too high. It’s like that friend who promises to bring dessert but shows up empty-handed. 🍽️
