AI Spot Summary
The dishes are diverse, with garlic oil marinated shrimp balls perfectly seasoned; the lamb chops have a distinct aroma and rich flavor; the beef short ribs are sufficiently portioned and tender; the salad is refreshing and basic. The white steamed cabbage is natural, and the drink options include a refreshing mojito and a sweeter juice. The bread is soft and delicious whether paired with butter or shrimp oil.
The restaurant environment is special, with each floor having a different style. On the day of my visit, I sat on the third floor, which was well-lit but somewhat stuffy; it should be more comfortable if the weather were cooler.
The staff provided timely service and were willing to assist customers by re-grilling the undercooked lamb chops, demonstrating friendliness and professionalism.
Reviews
After ordering, you will be served warm bread with Anchor butter. The bread is soft and elastic, and it tastes great with the butter; you could even dip it in shrimp oil.
Herb Mustard Roasted Lamb Rack MOP298
- Cooked medium-rare, which is their normal doneness. At first, we didn't know and thought the chef accidentally undercooked it, but after telling the staff, we found out this is actually how they serve it. The staff was very nice and offered to cook it a bit more. The outer layer is crispy and aromatic, with a lamb flavor that isn't gamey; it's quite robust but not overly salty. If you enjoy lamb, you should give it a try!
Garlic Oil Marinated Shrimp Balls MOP98
- Cooked with olive oil and garlic, the flavor is quite strong, and the shrimp tastes fresh! There's no fishy smell, and the overall seasoning is just right. However, if you don't like seafood, you don't need to order this.
Grilled Beef MOP268
- The portion is quite generous. The marbling is grilled to perfection, making it tender. The meat near the bone has a bit of chewiness to it, just right for three people to share!
White Blanched Cauliflower MOP88
- It resembles Taiwanese stir-fried greens, cooked just right. It might have been blanched before being stir-fried, and the flavor is very satisfying! It's delicious and pairs well with the meat, cutting through any grease!
Non-Alcoholic Mojito
- A refreshing drink that my friend ordered, but it's just average with no standout features.
Juice
- Initially, I thought it would be freshly squeezed juice. It turned out to be in a glass jar; it’s quite sweet and fairly thick when poured. It pairs well with ice! However, I personally didn't enjoy it.
🇵🇹 Pedro's Portuguese Restaurant
📍 38A, Macau Trading Street
🕰 11:30–22:30
🧺 They start by serving warm bread with Anchor butter. The bread is soft and elastic; it's ordinary on its own, but it's good for dipping in the shrimp oil.
🦐 The garlic oil shrimp balls have a fragrant oil sauce; the olive oil and garlic are well sautéed, and the shrimp are fresh with a good bite, not fishy at all. The overall seasoning is just right.
🍖 The lamb chops (I forgot the name of the dish) were served medium rare inside and a bit raw when cut open. We asked the staff to grill them again, and after being grilled, the surface was slightly charred, with a more pronounced aroma. The flavor is strong but not overly salty, and the fries that came with it were crispy.
🥩 The beef short ribs (also forgot the correct dish name) had a generous portion, thick meat with enough marbling, tender but with a good chew. It was just right for three people to share, and the fries were also well-fried, paired with some lettuce for balance.
🥗 The salad was basic, refreshing without any unnecessary dressing.
🥦 The steamed broccoli was cooked whole, then split open, and the portion was quite large; it had a natural flavor.
🍹 I ordered a mojito, which was refreshing and not sweet. The other juice was on the sweeter side, but adding ice made it smoother to drink.
🌿 The restaurant has a unique environment, with different styles on each floor. We sat on the middle floor, where the lighting was decent but a bit stuffy; it would have been much more comfortable if the weather were cooler.
