Parreirinha

Named after the little grapevine inside the restaurant, Parreirinha is an unpretentious and hugely popular spot that moved from La Rochelle in the South of Johannesburg to Melrose Arch in Nov, 2023. Hundreds of men’s ties hang from the ceiling, adding character to what is already a colourful place. The menus may be enclosed in a flip file, but the dishes are anything but ordinary. Lots of garlic and chilli (Mozambican-influenced) is to be found in the Portuguese flavours and the speciality dishes include bacalhau (cod), prawn cakes, steaks and delicious prawns.
