Manelito - Boksburg

The food was fine, although a bit on the plain side. The decor is typical of Portuguese restaurants. I really enjoyed the coffee! However, I don't think I'll be returning since the food doesn't stand out as remarkable—it's just standard home-cooked Portuguese fare. (To be fair, my fiancée, who is Portuguese, cooks even better!)

This charming hidden gem offers delicious, homestyle food. I tried the squid, which was tender and seasoned just right. My partner enjoyed the chicken, which was also tender and absolutely delightful. While the service was a bit on the slow side, the staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. The portions are generous, the prices are very reasonable, and the ambiance is relaxed and inviting.

The location might seem a bit intimidating, but don’t let that discourage you. This charming spot offers traditional Portuguese cuisine in a cozy atmosphere. It stays busy even during the week, and is even more bustling on weekends. If you're in the mood for something unique, this is definitely worth a visit.
