About
Although there are a variety of outstanding restaurants on the Rua do Amparo, Goya seems to take the regional cuisine one inventive step further. The menu showcases the best seafood in combination with tropical fruits and regional ingredients. One of the most creative dishes is the Lagosta ao Goya, pieces of lobster flambéed in cachaça and served with pineapple and mashed macaxeira (manioc). The prawn salad with pineapple, mango, and melon is served in a pineapple and topped with a cashew dressing. The atmosphere is bustling and pleasant, and the service is knowledgeable and friendly.
