Aquario Restaurant Restaurant Review:


A lackluster storefront exterior belies a considerably more inviting interior of Portuguese murals and a simply appointed white-and-mauve tablecloth setting, an unassuming atmosphere in which to enjoy the Portuguese-Brazilian cuisine. The comprehensive menu includes a variety of meat, fish and seafood options, but the emphasis is on the latter two. Broiled Mediterranean octopus sautéed in garlic and olive oil, and snails sautéed in Cognac sauce and served over linguine are highlights among the appetizer selections. Bacalhau, a Portuguese signature dish consisting of char-broiled Norwegian dry cod fish seasoned with olive oil and garlic, is well executed, while a sautéed Canadian halibut filet in a banana flambé results in a harmonious blend of subtly sweet and tropical flavors. The wine list, with selections from Portugal, Chile and Spain among other regions, works well with the menu.
