Best Known For

Espetada de Carne: skewered salted beef chunks, with chips and salad.

Work up an appetite with a friendly match at Marrickville Tennis Club before heading into Casa Do Benfica for authentic inspired Portuguese cuisine. Meet with friends in this family-friendly venue and begin with entrees like mussels in a rich housemade tomato sauce and grilled King prawns, followed by mains of fried chicken in a mushroom cream sauce served with chips; or perhaps some marinated beef skewers with chips and salad. Those who prefer seafood are spoiled for choice with dishes like grilled codfish with boiled vegetables, potatoes and a garlic-olive oil sauce, with dishes complemented by a selection of Portuguese wines from some of the country’s most revered grape-growing regions. Be sure to treat yourself to an indulgent dessert like meringue with egg and almond lemon custard.
