Albergue 1601 is quaint little Portuguese restaurant located inside a historical building in Macau with a history dated as far back as 450 years This restaurant is beautifully decorated with all things Portuguese and I must say it was a pleasure to dine in this...cozy restaurant that serves authentic Portuguese cuisine. Atmosphere was welcoming and service was excellent. As recommended by Executive Chef Pedro, we ordered the Salada de Polvo - Octopus Salad, Chouriço Assado - Grilled red wine sausage, Frango de Churrasco - Piri Piri Grilled Chicken, Bacalhau à Brás- Cod fish scrambled with eggs, Arroz de Marisco - Portuguese Seafood Stewed Rice and Batata Frita Pala Pala - Homemade chips Wow, the octopus salad was fresh and zesty as it is colorful. The grilled sausage was indeed one of the best grilled chorizo I have ever had; fragrant and not salty like other chorizo. The Piri Piri Chicken (half chicken) was grilled to perfection and accompanied by homemade chips that was surprisingly light and crunchy. The chicken was so good that we had to place a second order of chicken and additional side order of chips. The bacalhau is as expected but the Seafood stewed rice was truly scrumptious with the seafood flavor bursting in your mouth with very spoonful of rice. Really yummy. For desserts, we had the pineapple cake that was served with ice cream and of course the Serradura sawdust ice cream that is so creamy and delicious. The pineapple cake was superb when eaten together with ice cream. Great recommendations from Chef Pedro. Thank you for the wonderful dining experience.More

The restaurant is located in the nice small patio in the historical building in the typical Portuguese district so both, the restaurant and the area, would give you the feeling of the real Portugal. It’s not cheap but the food and port-wine we had was...really good. I think I hadn’t had so delicious bacalau (cod) in Portugal. So as the title says the Portuguese food here was better then in Portugal indeed. And of course it worth to pay extra for the atmosphereMore

ALBERGUE 1601 is a restaurant beautifully situated in the back corner of the Albergue SCM courtyard. This is a neat two storey restaurant dishing out traditional Portuguese and a handful of Macanese favourites in the atmospheric St. Lazurus district in Macau. Here you can try...seafood rice dishes, clams, cod fillet and cod balls (bacalhau), duck rice, suckling pig and African chicken amongst other expected Portuguese dishes. There is a nice list of Portuguese wines on offer as well. Albergue 1601 is open for separate lunch and dinner seating times - something to keep in mind if planning a meal here.More

Many choice of Portuguese restaurants in Macao and we chose to lunch here because of tripadvisor. We were so lucky getting a table without reservation (while guests after us didn’t). Piri-Piri Grilled Chicken was worth to wait. It’s soft, tender and full of favor. It’s...well – seasoning and well-cooked without any sauces. Tomato Rice Stew and Serradura all were terrific. Still miss the grilled chicken. Will definitely come backMore

Albergue1601 is a beautifully appointed restaurant in a courtyard in St Lazarus, an historical neighbourhood highly evocative of the alleyways of Lisbon. The food is traditional Portuguese. Our greeting upon arrival could not have been warmer. We were made feel special as we were shown...to our tables. My chicken Peri Peri stole the show.Their version of bacalhaua ( in scambled eggs) was also devine. We enjoyed the sangria and memories of a recent trip to Lisbon came flooding back when I finished the meal with a glass of the portuguese liqueur Ginja.More

We had a party of 8 and we ordered so much food for lunch, and they were all very good. Special mention includes the roast chicken which was crispy and tender. The duck rice and the stew seafood rice were also excellent. Very good service...by the staff. Very enjoyable. We shall return.More
