O Chico Restaurant

O Chico is a traditional Azorean restaurant located in Angra do Heroísmo, on the island of Terceira, widely recognised as an unmissable reference for those who want to taste the authentic alcatra in the style of Terceira, the most emblematic dish of local cuisine. The atmosphere is simple, welcoming and genuinely Azorean, reflecting the spirit of hospitality that characterises the people of the island.

Alcatra is a beef stew with spices, slowly cooked in a clay pot and traditionally served with leavened bread or regional bread. At O Chico, the recipe is prepared following traditional methods passed down through generations, guaranteeing an authentic and memorable gastronomic experience. The menu also includes other regional dishes such as stewed octopus, alheira and Holy Spirit soups at their proper time.

Advance reservation is recommended, especially in the summer months and during the Sanjoaninas festivals in June, when demand is high. The restaurant is suitable for groups and families. Prices are accessible for the level of quality offered. After dinner, the Historic Centre of Angra do Heroísmo is just a few minutes walk away, ideal for a digestive night stroll through the lit streets of the city.
