www.sandsmacao.com Copa Steakhouse is the go-to establishment for Macau’s steak lovers. The establishment has a vintage feel to it, where the carpeted space is a handsome square dining room filled evenly with tables perfect for small parties. Seats near the semi-open kitchen is a great vantage point to observe the live preparation of steaks and other signature dishes. Guests can anticipate steakhouse favourites such as an array of bestselling starters and cold seafood towers that are designed for sharing; pan-fried jumbo lump crab cake is packed with fresh lumps of crabmeat, and the spicy pineapple remoulade that gives the conventional dish a lovely, tropical twist. Copa also offers one of the best selection of steaks and chops in the city, with options from the US, South America, Australia and Japan. Seared on the hot grill and served with a range of homemade sauces and side dishes, the preparation of the steaks is simple but nicely done. Wine service is good with a wide selection of labels best for pairing, and service tends to be warm and friendly, with keenness to share suggestions on portion control and beverage pairing for guests.
