Northeast L.A., Los Angeles ยท restaurant
Like stumbling into a neighborhood bar in Lisbon, if Lisbon were on a quiet corner in Cypress Park. Barra Santos is intimate, unfussy, and deeply committed to good olive oil. Come for crispy salt cod fritters and vinho verde poured with a wink. The crowd is hip but not hostile, the servers actually know the wine list, and the patio has the exact kind of string lights that make you fall in love with someone by accident.
Charred ribeye with sweet cipollini onions and red wine jus.
Olive oil, freshly cracked pepper and lemon zest
Bacalhau fritters, salt cod and potato, fried golden. Portuguese classic.
Marinated in a spicy-tangy mix of coriander and chile. Cut into 4 pieces, so a perfect appetizer
Blackened skin and slathered in an acidic zesty citrus sauce
Seared and basted in a parsley-caper sauce
Happy hour runs Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM.
