Had gone on a late Sunday afternoon. Nice, cozy little place. Bartender/waitress, Annie was awesome. The food was excellent & the steak was tender as well as melt-in-your-mouth delicious. Will definately be going there again.

Food was delicious and authentic plus nice atmosphere! I would recommend to call ahead

The place is not fancy but our meals have always been excellent. The Portuguese steak and hand cut potatoes can't be beat. I've also enjoyed the shrimp Mozambique. It came with a wonderful sauce on a very generous number of good sized shrimp.

Tugas Restaurant and Catering is a fun, laid back eatery for the people of Pawtucket. My knowledge of Portuguese cuisine is parochial, but I found the menu to be be somewhat familiar and easy to navigate. The schrod with mashed potatoes and broccoli is a generous serving and moderately priced at $14.95. It was honestly the best schrod dinner I've ever had, on par with Legal Seafoods. There was a problem with our chicken wrap, in that, the chicken was entirely cartliingous, it tasted like connective tissue and we found it to be absolutely abhorrent. However, the server was very kind and understanding and swapped it out for a burger. All in all, you're bound to have a delightful and "different" type of dining experience that is well worth it at Tugas Restaurant and Catering.

First time here today with my cousin. I had the Cod.Fish and he the steak egg and rice with fries. The meals were tastey, and reasonably priced. The decor its nothing fancy however. The wait was reasonable, and the waitress was nice.

I will have to say that, wow, these folks really care about their business, customer service, and food quality. I'll admit that they totally stepped it up! I received in the mail a gift certificate for $25 to try them again after not having the best experience on father's day. I figured I'd come in for lunch and try that instead of breakfast. Boy, was I pleased. The fresh bread came to the table warm and toasty, along with some butter and Portuguese olives. I ordered an item off the specials menu: a pork and little necks dish (carne alentejana), but with shrimp swapped out for the clams. Delicious. Only wish there were that signature sauce on it, as I found the dish overall a little dry. Nevertheless, the pork was perfectly marinated and tender, the potatoes super delicious and crispy, and the shrimp prepared (I assume) Mozambique style was lovely. My partner ordered the Portuguese steak (bife a casa). It was prepared continental style with a thinly pounded steak, slice of ham, and fried egg. The sauce/gravy was flavorful and the potatoes again were crispy and perfect. Steak was requested medium and it did not disappoint. Super tender and delicious! Best Portuguese steak in the area, hands down. Possibly my favorite part of that whole dish, believe it or not, was the rice. Holy good God in heaven. It was slightly sticky like Asian rice, with a wonderful flavor of butter and onion. I just wanted to live in that bowl of rice. Wow. At this point in the meal, I was thinking, OK, I'm going to have to update this review to a four star. Then..... THEN..... they came out with a dessert sampling on the house. A trinity of delights. The poached pear was out of this world with a fruit compote and ice cream. The Portuguese semi-soft cheese served with marmalade and a fresh fig -- amazing! The cupcake, well, who doesn't like Portuguese cupcakes? So yeah, they impressed. The owner checked on us several times, chatted with us about the menu, and made my latte herself (which was perfect). I can say they've redeemed themselves and made a believer out of me! I'll be back for sure, you should too!
