Barcaxeira
R$$4.5 · 9,815 reviewsBarcaxeira is at Rua da Esperança, 458, in the center of Porto de Galinhas. It serves Northeastern Brazilian regional cuisine and seafood, and its name comes from macaxeira gratinada (cassava au gratin), the best-known dish of the house, which started in 1998 as a kiosk.
The macaxeira gratinada is served in three sizes, with fillings such as chicken, beef fillet, shrimp, carne de sol (salted sun-dried beef), salt cod, cheddar and catupiry (a creamy Brazilian cheese). Another highlight is pescada de engenho, a fish fillet flambéed with cachaça (sugarcane spirit), butter, capers and honey.
It is open every day, from noon until 23:00, with an air-conditioned dining room and an open-air area. The phone number is (81) 3552-1913.
