Very comfy little sit down restaurant. Despite it's size the food was phenomenal. Excellent Portuguese steak. Staff were friendly and considerate. Will definitely return to explore more on the menu.

While in Fall Rivers my husband and I wanted to eat Grilled limpets ( Lapas ) and we came across this restaurant. We always ate at a different restaurant but they stop serving lapas . Anyways we are so happy we came across this restaurant. It was like eating at my mother in laws house in Sao Miguel. The food was amazing. The limpets the fresh cheese everything! I highly recommend!! It was but pricey for lunch but we drove far and wanted to makes sure we had our favorites. It definitely was worth the money to us!

This place was great!! I tried the “Fried Octopus”. At first I was hesitant as I don’t care for fried food but this was cooked in Olive Oil Food was delicious and reasonably priced. Very laid back, open room concept and very casual. Staff was great. Can’t wait to go back! New Hampshire Girl Ana

Best sirloin tip and shrimp I’ve ever had. The sauce was so flavorful ... I couldn’t stop eating it!

The food was good. I liked the drink they made me and the bread was great. They had rissois as a special which I love. The little fried croquettes with fillings. I’ve been trying so hard to find a rissol de leitao somewhere so I was excited. Finding this place is confusing. The place itself is called like St John’s or something and just a small piece of computer paper on the door says Ocean Star Restaurant. It’s set up banquet-hall style and looks like it would be a good place for a large event. The bathroom is big with multiple stalls in it. There seems to be a separate area with a bar, sports on TV and billiards but I didn’t go in that room. Plenty of parking in the back (where the entrance door is; back on the side)
