O Fado Restaurant Description

O Fado is considered to be the oldest Portuguese restaurant in London and remains the only one presenting traditional cuisine and live fado music, leading diners to discover Portugal in the heart of London. Legend says fado was born from the longing of sailors for their country while on long journeys.

The restaurant grew as a place where the Portuguese community gathered to defeat the 'saudades' or longings they had for their homeland. Today, resident fado singers are one of the highlights of evenings there. Exhibitions of Portuguese artists and commemorations of National Days with themed parties are organised.

When it comes to the food, their dishes are created using regional Portuguese products and organic and free range meats. Start with cabbage soup and octopus salad before moving on to carne de porco à alentejana, a combination of pork and salty clams; bacalhau a gomes de sá, one of 365 ways to create cod in Portugal, or chanfana of lamb in red wine sauce spiced with garlic and bay leaf, ending with a lovely Molotov pudding.

Fixed Lunch

  • £14.95 ( 2 courses + a glass of wine and coffee), Mon - Fri
