Mesa by José Avillez
Mesa by José Avillez is not your typical Portuguese restaurant. Its bold interior blends Chinese symbolism with Karl Lagerfeld’s signature black, white, and gold aesthetic while the food also bucks norms, its plates—like succulent piri piri chicken and beef croquettes with truffle and mustard emulsion—are made to share. If ordering à la carte, be sure to pick widely, and pair your food with one of the exclusive Douro Valley wines.
