We enjoyed A Casa do Fado so much that we had to go back for a second show! If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind, authentic experience--this is it! Sandra Cristina is amazing. Listening to her deliver Fado is a full range of emotions. You will laugh, you will cry, but most importantly, you will feel welcome. As a Portuguese-American, there is nothing that compares to this historic experience. Thank you, A Casa do Fado! You have made my Portuguese blood boil over with excitement!

An exceptional show with the most talented musians in a stunning location that gave so much character, it made you feel totally swept up in the magic of fado. The guide was also super kind and responsive, due to taxi issues and we were going to miss half the show but they very kindly moved us to a later booking and saved our evening!

An experience I will not soon forget. Miguel Silva was a treasure to watch. He and his son played beautifully together. The Fado singer’s voice was fluid and filled the air with emotion. I highly recommend everyone attend this Fado concert.
