“Amazing restaurant! We stumbled upon this place after the first place we went to was booked, and I'm very glad we did. Excellent, honest food without frills at exceedingly fair prices.

For lunch they do the old-school set menu thing with soup plus a choice of 3 or 4 mains. Plus a big jug of tap water for free. Price was 7 euros for just the main or 8 with soup. There's also a selection of desserts at extra cost, around 3 euros each. Everything we ordered was fantastic: veal stew, squid with beans, cheesecake, caramel mousse and chocolate mouse. The setting is also great - nice, funky decor and a very comfortable terrace out back.

The overall vibe was great - you could this is a real passion project. There aren't many places like this around anymore. If you're in Braga, do yourself a favor and stop by. You won't regret it.“

huge portions, half rations are enough.
exceptional quality-price ratio, the kind that can no longer be found even in the most authentic taverns.“

He gave us great advice and we felt great and what can we say about the food... we ate a scandal goat and a picanha scary.If you go to Barcelos this is a mandatory stop.

Parking: Easy“

“Restaurant with exquisite furniture and decoration. Beautiful wine cellar with a set of mirrors that deceives the eye, giving unexpected depth to the rooms. Well prepared and abundant meal without being overdone. Pay attention to the details, starting with the menus and continuing with the friendliness of the service. Side dishes are sometimes a little late and therefore almost cold, contrasting with the main dish that arrives pleasantly boiling, releasing fragrances that the palate soon begins to guess...
Pleasant dessert. Price to match in a good relationship with the environment, service and meal. Definitely a restaurant not to be missed for lovers of good things in the city of Braga, fifteen minutes from the center, on foot, to help digestion...
Congratulations to the Management and the entire friendly team.“

“I took "Codfish in Braga", very filling. Very good. Potatoes in fried rings, nickel. All drizzled with olive oil, as I like.Dessert: baked apple, excellent. Come with your eyes closed.My wife took the cod with breadcrumbs, potatoes, cabbage. Excellent.All for a very reasonable price. We will come back without hesitation.“

“(Translated by Google) I've been living in Braga for five years and this was without a doubt the best cod I've ever tasted. Service is friendly and welcoming. The cheesecake for dessert was amazing! Keep it up.(Original)Vivo há cinco anos em Braga e esse foi sem dúvidas o melhor bacalhau que já experimentei. O atendimento é simpático e acolhedor. O cheesecake na sobremesa estava incrível! Continuem assim.“

“The concept of the restaurant is quite interesting and different.
The amount of food in all the dishes is quite small, of course it is a gourmet food restaurant, in other words: it is designed to eat all the “4 acts” or 4 dishes and be fine, the idea is not to be full!!

Regarding the quality of the dishes and their flavor: nothing to write home about, they are all really good.⭐️

Just something to point out and easy to improve;
In the “fifth act”, the desserts could be better described because the menu only mentions the ingredients, or flavors, that your dessert will have, it does not mention the texture. In other words, you don’t know if you’re asking for ice cream, a cake, something creamy, something dry and crunchy, etc…

It's not a cheap restaurant, that's clear, but for something different and special, it's good.

Kid-friendliness: They admit children and babies but the care for them is not the best. It is noticeable that they “get in the way”. They could improve on this.“

“(Translated by Google) Very tasty and well seasoned food. Clean environment, fast service and the best: the menu is on Facebook daily, which is really practical (I could have it here on Google too! ????). I recommend!(Original)Comida muito saborosa e bem temperada. Ambiente limpinho, atendimento rápido e o melhor: o menu está diariamente no Facebook, o que é mesmo muito prático (podia ter aqui no Google tb! ????). Recomendo!“

“It is a restaurant in a non-touristy neighborhood of Braga. The business is frequented by people from the city. Menu at an incredible price (for its offer) and the menu with very good prices from half portions to full portions. We recommend the entrecôte, cod and picaña! The treatment was exquisite, very friendly!“

“(Translated by Google) 3 different dishes every day, today we chose the steak with pepper sauce. The steaks were tender and flavorful. 1 mug of white sangria and 1 water 1.5L, 2 desserts and 2 coffees.Without dessert it would be 7.5€ per day with bread+dish+beverage+coffeeWith dessert it's €1.5 moreFast and effective serviceI strongly advise(Original)3 pratos diferentes todos os dias, hoje escolhemos o bife com molho pimenta. Os bifes estavam tenros e saborosos. 1 caneca de sangria branca e 1 água 1.5L, 2 sobremesas e 2 cafés.Sem sobremesa ficaria a 7.5€ a diária com pão+prato+bebida+caféCom sobremesa são mais 1.5€Atendimento rápido e eficazAconselho vivamente“

“We were surprised by the creativity of their dishes. We liked the service, they were very attentive and treated us very well. They are a young team with a great future. They take care of all the details, from the plates to the tablecloths. We liked this small restaurant that goes beyond the Portuguese tourist menu and mixes world dishes with local cuisine.

Vegetarian options: many options, spices and aromas from around the world“

“(Translated by Google) I was walking around looking for a restaurant, and I found Canudo I was surprised by the service and the quality of the dish for the price paid...very good I advise anyone who is close to Braga and wants to be surprised....5** **(Original)Andava pelas redondezas à procura de um restaurante, e encontrei o Canudo fui surpreendido pelo atendimento e pela qualidade do prato para o valor pago...muito bom aconselho a quem estiver por perto de Braga e queira ser surpreendido....5****“

“We made a stop at this place for an ice cream after researching a bit on google about a good ice cream place
In Braga. We were not let down. It is a really good quality gelato. We had the pistachio, hazelnut, and chocolate. Awesome taste for the 3 flavours. Highly recommended.“

“Refined and exquisite culinary experience. Dishes cooked with local products. It's been a long time since I had such an experience. Besides, it had fun and experimental sides. In addition, awareness of the ecology of the problem of plastics in the ocean.
The dishes were presented with great mastery by António. The wine list was extensive.“

“The environment is pleasant. An old stone building with exquisite wooden furniture.

The service is attentive.

The food is very good, with tasty tapas, although I consider the price to be high for the size of the portions and the ingredients used. The tapas portions called "Pica Pau" and "Ovos Rotos" are excellent.

I think the wine options are relatively expensive. I miss a better value for money.

“It was one of the best restaurants I've ever been to, the food is great, the atmosphere is calm and the service is fantastic, they are very quick to serve I went today with my family, there were 5 of us and we spent €112 for 5 people, it's not a lot of money

Parking: There's a lot of space“

“Food and service were great! Generous, hearty portions. Mushrooms and prawns were excellent starters. Steak and fish were excellent. Great for big groups. We were 11 and had a cozy set up. We had a couple of vegetarians in the group - menu is not vegetarian friendly but our server made a plan! Fairly good value for money.“

“We had dinner here and everything was spectacular! A soft and delicious rice and an exaggerated amount! Lots of fish and shrimp. A very good taste. The only thing we didn't like was that he offered us to choose a starter from a tray, but the way he did it seemed to be a courtesy, as they do in many restaurants. And we have been charged and at a "golden" price to be here in Portugal. In the end, the quality and service was worth it. We would go back and we could decide better if we wanted the entrance or not ;)“

“I was happy that I found this place on a very rainy day on the Camino to get some food and rest. I had a huge pilgrims menu with soup, bread, salad, main dish, wine and coffee for only 7€!!! The staff was kind and the food was tasty. And no, they do not charge pilgrims more than locals ;-)“

“Excellent restaurant.
I have been staying in Braga for a week and less than one day for reasons, I have eaten here all of them.
Menu to choose from approximately 6 dishes always served with an infusion for 3.90 (desserts paid separately)
Always served with a side of rice, salads, steamed vegetables...
Very very attentive waiters.
Don't hesitate, you have to go, but before 1:00 p.m.... otherwise many dishes are finished (Portugal is already eating at 12:00/30)“

“Great place and comfortable service! The restaurant is located in a cozy central historical location. It is fashionable to sit inside or on the terrace outside. I tried the most delicious steak in Portugal. The menu includes dishes of national and European cuisine. Highly recommend!“

“Impeccable pizzas, made not in an oven but in frying pans!, and they come with crispy dough and quality products! The only "sin" for being small and having 2 outdoor tables, but the quality of the food and service are well worth it! We will be back!“

“We were four people and we did very well.
The choice fell on the Minho and Douro white wine menu.
The four-course menu is always the chef's choice and is only known when they arrive at the table.
The initial bread, crunchy, with sourdough, presided over by well-chosen olive oil and butter with… octopus roe, all received top marks.
Excellence dominated all the dishes, the soup, the fish, the meat and the final sweets, without exception. It is not important to describe them as they will not be the same on a subsequent visit.
The finish was enriched with variations of the abbey of Priscos and petit-gateaux with carrot, again with top marks.
Very professional service.
Very pleasant atmosphere on a Sunday when only one other table was occupied.
To revisit on a special day.“

“Manjar das Francesinhas, in Braga, offers an authentic experience, enhanced by Mr. José's spectacular service. His dedication and charisma provide a welcoming atmosphere, perfectly complementing the delicious francesinhas served with mastery, as well as great beer options.“

“We eat very well.
Except the slightly overwhelmed table service.
Too much focus on existing customers and less on new customers.
My food is very good. THANKS

Parking: If parking plan rather it is parked in the street after going up to the church. We normally find.“

“An authentic gastronomic treasure hidden in the city of Braga!
Very well maintained rustic house. The menu is very varied, with obvious emphasis on the different ways of serving cod. We chose the same one wrapped in puff pastry, and I guarantee it was the most divine cod I've eaten outside of home in a long time! Only by trying it will you be sure of what I say. Even the cod fritters for starters are a positive surprise as they contain more fish (very tasty!) than potatoes.
Please note that the famous Papas de Sarrabulho are only made in winter, so don't be mistaken! There are Rojões, and the homemade desserts are worth a look... and taste. How wonderful!
The exemplary welcome from Mr. Rolando, who manages the space with his sister, is to be commended. Whether in the food advice or in the two conversations that we pleasantly maintained.
I strongly recommend a visit to this house with excellent homemade food and prices in line with what is served to us. My sincere congratulations!

Parking: There is no possibility of parking on the street. Only nearby.“

“It deserved a better location but being inside the restaurant and after appreciating everything that is available to us with unmatched friendliness and professionalism, the location is no longer of interest. Coming back and taking the opportunity to try other excellent suggestions.“

“The price-quality ratio is good compared to other take away places (I'm just referring to take away). The portions have become more generous (now the potato sticks are much smaller), but the service is quick (even more so at the counter inside than at the drive in). The barbecue chicken is tasty.“

“Simply one word: I LOVED IT!!!Very good food, well prepared, very homemade and of high quality. Meat that falls apart in your mouth and has an excellent flavor. The fresh sangria is great. Excellent and personalized service. Family and welcoming atmosphere. I really enjoyed seeing the wood ovens. D. Margarida is an excellent host.I'll be back to try the francesinhas, our mouths are all watering.WE LOVE IT!! WE LOVE IT!! WE LOVE IT!!“

“Amazing place! Just like the previous one in Apúlia, this restaurant is just amazing! Wonderful service, marvellous and tasty food… you just go and don’t want to leave! When leaving you need to return! I will return again and again and again!!!!!!!!

Parking: Just can’t park by the restaurant! Need to park around 200m away! Not bad on summer but not good in winter!!!!“

“The restaurant is beautiful and the waitress was very friendly and attentive to us. Our daughter enjoyed her cheeseburger kids menu and we were blown away by the grilled entrecôte and grilled Dorada. We knew it would be good, but we were in for a surprise because it was wonderful!!! We even thanked the cook for preparing us a great dinner. I just want to give them 10 stars⭐️

Kid-friendliness: Splendid kids menu?“

“Очень вкусная еда. Красивая подача. Оригинальное пиво, особенно бельгийское. Вежливые сотрудники и быстрое обслуживание. Всё что нужно для удовольствия. ?“

“We have visited Canté almost completely by chance. From the outside is just so discrete that you hardly imagine what's inside. As we have got the menu the curiosity around the concept ignited. As entry we have chosen Tacos de Salmão. What a way to start a meal. Excelent choice of ingredients combined in perfection and very well seasoned. As main dish arroz Thai was served. The harmony in flavour, seasoning and presentation continued. What a treat. We were so satisfied that we could not leave without tasting one of the desserts. This was undoubtably one of the best desserts we have tasted in years. Congratulations to the Chef and team. We will keep returning to Braga just to visit you.“

“We stopped at this restaurant on the way to Santiago de Compostela by chance and were amazed.The menu is very varied, from starters to fish and meat dishes and even desserts. I can't even tell you about the flavor... I'm a fan of beef and for me it has to be at that point that few can reach... I was at that point! The chicken was also great and the dessert was really good.The decor is sober, very clean and tasteful, I didn't think I would find such professionalism in such young people, they are all young but they already know the value of good work.As for the price, which is what interests a lot of people, I honestly thought it would be more expensive, it was affordable.We will definitely return!“

“I recently went to this restaurant and had the pleasure of being served by Senhor Nuno, and I must say that his friendliness and courtesy will definitely make me come back. The food and desserts were delicious and the atmosphere of the restaurant is fantastic, with a very creative and original maritime decor. I highly recommend it!“

“An exceptional gastronomic experience at this restaurant in Braga! The Bacalhau à Narcisa was simply wonderful, a traditional dish prepared with mastery. The combination of flavors was perfect, and the presentation was impeccable. Without a doubt, one of the best cod dishes I've ever tasted. I recommend this restaurant to all lovers of good Portuguese food and who value great service. Five stars to the team for culinary excellence!“

“First of all, this criticism should have been made earlier, so as not to forget to do it, I am doing it now. Now, it would be difficult to really forget to evaluate this pleasant and welcoming space. The food is homemade, made with love and care. The starters are delicious, especially the blood sausage. Arriving at the main course, your belly is already full, with so many good starters. The main course afterwards, even though it is practically full, makes you want to eat until you can no longer eat, everything is delicious. To summarize things a little, I'll move on to dessert, the French toast and what a French toast! One of the best I've ever eaten in my life, I don't know what the secret is in the recipe, but I recommend leaving a little space in your belly to taste it. In this case I was served by the friendly Joana and Eugénia, where their friendliness also won me over, personally, in addition to the food, I pay a lot of attention to customer service and here they also deserve a rating of 5. Final summary, 5 stars, to come back and repeat , especially with an empty belly because here the belly comes out happy.“

“What a delicious dinner and how comfortable we were at Dom Ferreira. We ordered the Star dish: duck rice.
Incredible. I will recommend everyone to visit this tasquinha when traveling to Braga. Out of 10 everything, food, atmosphere and service. We will be back!!“

“Great food and lovely staff.4 stars were given as it's cash only, which isn't made clear to us on arrival (by signage or on the menu). It was an inconvenience for us to them have to get cash from the ATM on the last day of our holiday. But otherwise I recommend this place if you're in Braga

Vegetarian options: It's a vegan cafe!“

“We discovered this place by chance. We were the only ones in this quality restaurant and we were received like kings. The dishes on the menu are quite classic but prepared in an original way. The result is delicious. The chef and waitress were lovely. Good tips for wine. The icing on the cake, the waitress offered to take care of our baby when we ate. I highly recommend.“

“Excellent Restaurant!! Super nice and comfortable atmosphere. Impeccable service, super friendly staff. Freshly made food, I had to wait 20 minutes for the Monkfish rice but it was well worth it. We drank a very good passion fruit sangria. It was well worth repeating.“

“A totally recommended place. We arrived without a reservation, they had the terrace full, they offered us the little room upstairs and they quickly prepared it, turned on the air conditioning and we were so comfortable.
An exquisite cheese board, a spectacular pepper jam and a stuffed mushroom to repeat. All at a fair price.
And the very good attention.
You can not ask for more.
Congratulations!!!“

“The meal was delicious and quite exquisite. The roast beef with celery root puree was excellent. Although it came with three purees, which could have been reduced to at least one, and included something to help clean the plate, or something crunchy, to vary the texture.

The service was satisfactory and the atmosphere was very pleasant, with ambient music and cozy dim lighting. I recommend.“

“We had a terrific lunch here. Set menu with soup, option for main, dessert and drink for a fair price. Local style food but there was a vegetarian option for all courses- rare! Our waitress was helpful and spoke English, atmosphere was lovely - would definitely recommend.“

“(Translated by Google) A wonderful find in Braga, excellent service, a pleasant cozy and comfortable environment, the food from starters to desserts, a very extensive wine list, congratulations on the project. on repeat(Original)Um belíssimo achado em Braga, atendimento excelente um ambiente agradável aconchegante e confortável, a comida desde as entradas as sobremesas, uma carta de vinhos muito vasta, parabéns pelo projeto.
