Where It All Began
When Sam Perreira and partners opened our doors in May 1988, we traded as Bartholomew Dias Tavern. The stakeholders, all children of Portuguese immigrants, grew up in the food trade and wanted to expand their passion for Portuguese cuisine to the community. At the time, they all represented Portugal in the International Football Association, IFA, and the restaurant was built with the support of the players, families and friends.
Today, you still see the current owners Dan Faias and Joe Hilario, on site and sense their passion for the business, customers and wholesome food. The menu consists of traditional Portuguese cuisine, as well as local South African flavours with a Portuguese twist.
To this day, the grandparents, parents and children of the IFA players frequent our venues for great food and a sense of família and casa.

Dias is the business. Great food and great service as a patron for over 25 years.
Mike Klink
Incredible food, staff and amazing atmosphere. When I went last night the atmosphere was still so warm, comforting and inviting. Dias Tavern never disapoints.
Emily Munch
For an authentic portuguese food experience Dias is the place. Prawns were delicious, so was the rump steak with egg and the chips.
