Editorial reviews from the web (2)

"So what" if it's in the "basement of a bank" – where else to keep a "neighborhood treasure" ask acolytes of this "wonderful" Portuguese "hideaway" in Chevy Chase, where "magicians with fish" and meat make "outstanding" dishes appear from the kitchen; the "attentive" staff suggests Med wines for a "white-tablecloth" meal in an "old-world" setting complete with "high" prices (bargain-hunters...

Tavira Restaurant Review

By far and away the most under-represented cuisine in the metro area is that of Portugal. Maybe folks are too used to the kick of Thai or the heft of Tex-Mex to demand something that is both unusual and yet familiar. That's what makes a destination like Tavira so comforting and desirable. Once you're settled into one of its three intimate dining areas (try the one with the fireplace on chilly...

Outstanding Restaurant

Average Rating
100

We had a birthday celebration for 23 people and the entire experience from start to finish was outstanding. Tavira's staff makes every guest feel like an 'honored guest' as they go out of their way to ensure your experience is a highly positive one. The cocktail hour in the bar area was a good setting and encouraged our guests to...

Wonderful Portugese restaurant

Average Rating

I have visited Portugal and Brazil and love Portugese food. This restaurant came recommended as excellent by one of my friends, but I tried it only recently. It has a beautiful romantic setting, soft lighting which makes all women look better, white linen tableclothes, a fresco painted on a wall (see pic). It is quiet and cozy. Upscale crowd of...

Excellent food, atmosphere and service. Authentic food, creative menu, quality at reasonable prices. Definitely try the specials.

Nice Change

Average Rating
80

There aren't many Portuguese restaurants in this area, so Tavira's menu was a nice change. The whole grilled Durado was excellent, as were the lamb chops and garlic spinach. Relative disappointments were the salad (too much oil) and the carroys (too salty.) The service was pleasant but a little slow.

Best fish and seafood in town!

Average Rating
100

We are regulars of Tavira and often take friends/visitors there for good food. Once again we and our friends were very happy with our meals. We enjoyed fish and seafood superbly prepared mediterranean style and Tavira's impeccable service. Their desserts are also wonderful. This time, the "pears in port" were delicious!
