In Short
Housed in an old train, this cozy eatery's proximity to the bars and clubs of Polk Street draws a late-night crowd of drunken revelers. The extensive menu features all the dinner favorites, such as burgers and steaks, and the back page is devoted to Portuguese fare. Authentic dishes include codfish with potatoes, onions and hard-cooked eggs, and pork chops seasoned with white wine, garlic and Portuguese spices.

Yup.. I had the Portuguese pork chops and they were great. I have also had heir breakfast plates, equally tasty. The burgers and breakfast menu are priced reasonable. The Portuguese meals are a little higher in price.

A warm, friendly place serving traditional American food. The hamburgers are the best here. They also have a Portuguese section on their menu but I have never tried it because of the warning that it takes at least 20 minutes to prepare.
