San Jose’s first and only Michelin starred restaurant has announced it’s closing at the end of the year.
on Sunday, saying, the couple first opened Adega with a goal to "showcase authentic Portuguese cuisine and share a little bit of our culture."
But the couple said, it was now time to start a new chapter, with a focus in reaching more people with their cuisine. Carlos Carreira said through this plan, "We're able to expose Portuguese food to a lot more people." On a good night, Adega will serve about 35 people, he said. On the other hand, at Petiscos, they served about 250 diners a day.
"The reason we're doing this not because fine dining or Adega is unsuccessful. We're doing very well," the owner said. In fact, conceivably they could remain open and remain successful at least for a few more years, as they rolled out their expansion plan, Carlos Carreira explained.
After the Carreiras open their second Petiscos location, the owners said their team would evaluate as it considered opening in other markets, possibly San Francisco and/or Los Angeles.
