Churrasqueira do Povo

A stone's throw from the Périphérique and a short walk from the Porte de Clichy metro station, this is the hot new Portuguese lunch spot in the 'burbs. Ok, not that new, but so hot, in fact, that you'll likely have to jockey for a table amongst crowds of L'Oréal employees who don't mind getting the scent of grilled meat in their perfectly coiffed hair.


That's about all there is to order here: Meat, meat, meat. And some fish. All salted and grilled in huge portions that only a churrasca can deliver. If you're familiar with the Brazillian churrascaria, it won't be what you're expecting - they don't bring you skewers and skewers of meats at will. They do, however, present you with a large plate filled with nicely grilled chicken, beef, pork, or fish - or a "Mixte Grill" of several, all at a nice price.


Each dish comes with three sides of your choice, though none really inspire "oohs" and "ahhs." But that's ok - if you've come to a Churrasqueira, you're here for the meat.


No menu combination, but you won't leave here hungry if you skip the entrée.

A four year old restaurant making it work in a working mans part of Paris. Opens at 6:30 but not in the button like most things in France, at their leisure. The food was good and staff attentive. Prices are very fair for the amount of food you get. A fun blend of different cultures and food. It was the first time my wife and I had seen a lot of veggies served up. We were super excited. A lot of locals ate outside but we chose inside to be off the street. Wine selection was good.
Would recommend for anyone staying a the holiday inn or Hampton inn. It's an easy walk during the daylight summer months.
