A Churrasqueira Celebrates 29 Years of Portuguese Flavour
12 August 2025
This August marks a remarkable milestone for A Churrasqueira, as the beloved Portuguese restaurant celebrates its 29th anniversary. Inspired by the warmth and flavours of Portugal, owners Victor and Jackie have built one of Johannesburg’s most popular dining destinations, attracting loyal patrons from near and far.
Over the years, A Churrasqueira has earned widespread acclaim, with favourable reviews in numerous magazines and newspapers. It has been dubbed the Financial Mail’s “Prawn Star” and secured a coveted spot in the Eat Out Best 100 Restaurants in South Africa.
The name A Churrasqueira loosely translates to “a variety of food on the grill” - a fitting description of its diverse menu. Diners can enjoy everything from the classic Portuguese peri-peri chicken to prawn curry, prawn and pork rashers, and traditional specialities such as rabbit stew, tripe, and pork-and-clam stew.
The restaurant caters for all occasions, from birthdays and christenings to large-scale outside catering. Bookings are essential, but for those on the go, takeaway options are always available.
To mark its 29th birthday, A Churrasqueira is treating guests to a selection of exciting specials throughout August. Fans are encouraged to follow the restaurant’s social media channels for the latest updates and announcements.
