Fodor's Expert Review Belcanto

Fodor's Choice
Another jewel in the crown of celebrity chef José Avillez, Belcanto has garnered international acclaim for its inventive cuisine that uses the latest gastronomic techniques to update traditional dishes (which is why dishes on the tasting menu have names like leitão revisitado, meaning "suckling pig revisited). The dining room is just as refined, with every course placed before you with a flourish by an expert staff.
