With an accommodating and quaint atmosphere, A Grelha Grill (located in 60 Woodgate Leicester, LE3 5JF) is the hottest new place in the Leicester area. Inspired by its name, meaning Portuguese Grill Restaurant.
From the moment you enter, tones of old world yellows, soft candlelight, and friendly staff, live music on weekends till later add to the intimacy. One romantic dining room caters to an elegant crowd, while the long narrow bar gathers a friendly and fun bunch nightly.
The cuisine truly upholds the name of Fine Portuguese/Spanish Dining, seafood and fish, organic meats, the freshest ingredients and to maintain the tradition, huge portions are to be expected. The menu is seasonal and in addition to a varied selection of delectable dishes to satisfy any palette, daily specials are always featured. The wine list with over 180 selections is an ambitious one that keeps growing, but sure not to disappoint the discriminating connoisseur.
The word is out and rave reviews are coming in, we invite you to join us on your next outing and share your thoughts. For your convenience, free parking is available around the corner.
Reservations are highly recommended.
