Health Food Restaurants near Espinho, PT

“Very pleasant surprise!
I went with my family to have dinner at this discovery restaurant, and it turned out to be a great choice.
We ate the vegetarian francesinha, which we thought was wonderful. Instead of traditional fries, this one comes with nachos on the side, which fits well with the dish.
For dessert we tried a mango mousse made on site, which was also very good.
I recommend it for a light, tasty meal, in a space with simple and pleasant decor.“

“The best dining experience you can find in Espinho. We had the fish stew and it was simply the best. The appetisers of olives, bread, pate and fish cutlets were also amazing. The owner gave us free liquor at the end. Excellent service and a very homely environment.“

“Despite not being fully vegan, the number of vegan options here is borderline overwhelming. The pancakes were incredible and quite filling, and the açai bowl was just as delicious. The nut-forward smoothie (I forgot the name) was really good as well. There was an option to add vegan protein powder but I didn't add any. Everything was reasonably priced, too.“

“(Translated by Google) A good choice for lunch with the family. The cod loin with bread (cod with potatoes) was well done and tasty. The service was as expected and there was a place to park near the restaurant. The kitchen is close to the tables inside, but there is the option of tables outside the restaurant. The meal was served quickly and as expected.(Original)Uma boa opção para um almoço com a família. O lombo de bacalhau com broa ( bacalhau com batatas) estava bem feito e saboroso. O atendimento foi dentro do esperado e havia local para estacionar próximo ao restaurante. A cozinha fica próxima ao local das mesas na parte interna, mas há a opção de mesas na parte externa ao restaurante. A refeição foi servida rápida e conforme o esperado.“

“We loved the Açai!!!??The size of the glass is the Classic. €6.5The waitress gave us açai then a topping and so on with all three. It is quite well distributed and the fruit on the topping is very tasty and fresh.I highly recommend putting condensed milk on it ? !!!“

“Wonderful place filled with giant strelitzia plants? The service was a little slow to begin with and it took a while before we got the menus. Then it was all forgiven because the ladies were such sweet and accommodating The food was delightful for the the eye and and mouth, the wines perfect accompanied. We are super satisfied for the whole experience? They also provided us a perfect table for one of the diners who sits in a wheelchair. Thank you for a lovely last supper in Portugal?“

“We dropped by a little earlier to see if we could get a spot. This place always seems busy.

The food and service clearly showed why it was always busy. The gnocchi and chicken cacciatore were great. Specifically my gnocchi tasted fresh and the portion was huge.

The service team was both friendly and efficient. I enjoyed the food here and would definitely recommend it.“

“O Padoca é para nós pessoas veganas como "Charlie e a Fábrica de Chocolate" ! Não é so um prazer, é também uma ida expresso à nostalgia com as receitas da casa ou mesmo as receitas Portuenses. A vontade mais certa é de cair neste rio de receitas incríveis como o Augustus Gloop, porque não há nada que sobrará de um prato do Padoca/Guará quando me será metido à frente 😋“

“Our visit to Kind Kitchen was a real highlight of our stay in Porto ✨✨✨ The vegan francesinha truly stood out — rich, deeply flavorful, and without question one of the finest plant-based interpretations we’ve ever tasted! Each dish showed a clear understanding of how to combine textures and seasonings to create something both comforting and exciting. We loved the creativity and generosity that went into the menu. The atmosphere was warm and relaxed, making it an ideal place to enjoy a slow, satisfying meal. The staff were friendly and attentive, and they naturally extended a bit of kindness to our dogs as well, which we always appreciate. We left completely satisfied and already eager to return. Highly recommended for anyone craving delicious vegan comfort food in Porto! We also loved their merchandising: the T-shirts are excellent quality and beautifully designed, with a subtle yet impactful slogan 🫶🏻“

“Tout est parfait. La cuisine est excellente, les conseils culinaires ou oenologues sont parfaits et ce n'est pas plus cher qu'en France. Pensez à réserver sur leur site en revanche, car c'est très prisé et il ne prennent pas de table sans réservation. Paiement en liquide UNIQUEMENT. Une excellente adresse que je recommande les yeux fermés!“

“Morning train ride leaving Porto
1st place open run at 8:20 for the last meal
I had strawberry field and brunch salmon set.
Cafe latte and espresso with milk
The portions are huge and the brunch set especially goes well with a variety of ingredients.
Friendly and kind. It was great as our last meal in Porto.“

“Set up in a very simple way with tables, fridges and shelves with products to buy, the meal will be nothing simple. I had the francesihna and it was truly phenomenal. It had so many different layers of meat that filled me up with pure joy. The also have a different dish of the day for only 6euros.“

“A 10-rated cafeteria. Crispy and delicious toast, top-quality coffee, delicious orange juice and desserts. They treated us very well, we went with 2 dogs and they let us in, they gave them water and treated them great.

“100% recommended site. The treatment is super close and friendly. Great waitresses. They speak Spanish.

The food is great and the fish is obviously fresh. I recommend the grilled sardines.

Honestly, I would return without hesitation.“

“A fantastic little restaurant. The food, despite being simple concepts, was full of flavor.
It can only become unpleasant if people at the next table are so unpleasant, because it is impossible not to hear them given the distance between the tables.“

“Small but very charming. It's for sandwiches and toast, they also have soups.
The sandwiches are not very big but correct. Very well prepared and very delicious products. The waitress spoke Spanish perfectly and helped us choose the food. Very attentive. You can only pay in cash, not by card. The beer is artisanal and very good.“

“Outstanding restaurant with a charming and unique history. Incredible service where they give recommendations and information about each dish. The menu is perfectly put together with locally sourced ingredients. The starters were magnificent and it shows that they infuse love into their food.“

“I'm always looking for a wholesome vegan meal and this restaurant was perfect! They have a menu for the day - I got a carrot soup and a bean stew at 14 euros which is quite a good price. The food was delicious and was exactly what I needed today 🥹“

“Excellent welcome and good value for money. Generous plate of homemade guacamole to share between 2. Vegetarian salads or salads with salmon are delicious. The acai for dessert is worth discovering!

Vegetarian options: Several dishes are vegetarian and as beautiful as they are delicious.“

“We have already visited many Michelin restaurants. But this was incredibly good from start to finish. The staff was very friendly, gave a lot of explanation about everything. It was really cool that there was something special with each dish, especially the dish with the blindfold. The combinations of some dishes really exploded in your mouth, so tasty! If you are in Porto, I definitely recommend that you make a reservation here!“

“Place located along the Douro on the less chaotic and congested side with tourists. This gives the place a beautiful romantic atmosphere which, combined with the view of the bridge, is truly exceptional. The staff is trained and very helpful.
The dishes are simple and varied.“

“The buffet was so good! Satay tofu, garlic noodles, saitan in creamy sauce, fried potatoes, falafels and more, everything delicious! You’ll find the restaurant in the left corner if you enter from the riverside. Try it, you won’t regret“

“We stumbled upon this place by chance and are glad we did. The food is amazing, highly recommend the asparagus and mushrooms spears (meat-eaters will thoroughly enjoy this too), the tuna tartare and the beef cheek. The service was lovely and it was great to see the chef chatting to customers too. Add this to your list!“

“We are from the US. We spent 2 days in Lisbon and took a train to Porto. We had the best dinner in Portugal at this restaurant. The owner is very engaged with the customers and extremely friendly. We are only in town for 2 days but plan to come back before we head back to the US. Exceptional
service and food!! 10/10. Highly recommend!!!“

“Amazing place to come for lunch or dinner. All delicious dishes, special mention to the cod and octopus. The place is very nice and cozy. All the staff are very friendly, although we must highlight David, who was very attentive to us at all times.“

“During our stay in Porto, my girlfriend and I found this small, traditional restaurant. It was cozy, a bit noisy, but the food was really delicious and very affordable. The staff was friendly, and even though you might have to wait for a table, it's definitely worth it. A true hidden gem!“

“Such a cute but small restaurant - I recommend booking via The Fork because then you get 30% off and a table guaranteed. We had the patatas bravas which were amazing and the aubergine in a sugarcane syrup but the best by far was the mushroom tacos! One of the best dishes I've had in a very long time. 10/10“

“Fantastic little restaurant... Lovely little set menu . Food is cooked with care feels like your in a home kitchen. No frills or graces but the most authentic food experience we had in Porto . In fact so good we went Twice in a week ... A real Gem ... If you're in Porto check it out“

“? This traditional restaurant was recommended to us by our local host. Small enough room, so could not get a table on the first try. Looked booked out on our second visit but owner recognised us from a few days before and found us a table. Great value, simple but delicious food ?“

“I loved.
Highly recommended, especially the traditional sausage from Portugal
The young man who served us a 10.
Very attentive, he explained the dishes very well and the truth is that he made us feel at home
100% recommended“

“This is easily my favorite restaurant in Foz. Our family of 4 comes to this hidden gem regularly; we adore the delicious food and the cozy atmosphere. We've yet to have a dish that we didn't love, but our favorites are Bife Tentacao & the pataniscas. The specials are always amazing, too. And try to save room for their homemade desserts! It's a small place so it fills up fast - make a reservation if you can (or, opt to wait - it's worth it!!).“

“On 06/04/2024 I went to D` Olive restaurant for lunch and I loved everything. Wonderful food, very beautiful decoration, a welcoming and peaceful space, and excellent staff, I can say that even the cook came to the table to ask if everything was ok...
I had grilled salmon which was divine.
Thank you D'Olive.
Thank you Santa Maria da Feira, welcoming city.?“

“I’m someone who truly appreciates good restaurants, and this one is absolutely exceptional!

FOOD:
- The food here is top class, with incredible attention to detail in every dish. I highly recommend the Steak with Queijo da Serra (Serra Cheese) and the Duck Magret with Porto Wine Sauce. Both dishes are exceptionally delicious, boasting a premium taste that is hard to find elsewhere. My friends had the Cod with Cornbread and mentioned that it was excellent as well.
- As for drinks, we enjoyed the White Sangria, which was delightful. The Porto Wine served after the meal was also a perfect finish. Next time, I’ll definitely try a Red Wine to complement the meal.
- For dessert, I would suggest trying the Crème Brûlée and the Portuguese Biscuit Cake; both were great!

SERVICE:
- The service was superb. Everyone was friendly, positive, and very relaxed, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Miss Beatriz, our server, did an excellent job, ensuring that we had everything we needed and felt well taken care of.

ATMOSPHERE:
- The atmosphere was, in my opinion, the best part of the experience. The environment was quiet and peaceful, allowing us to have a conversation without any loud disturbances. It was a wonderfully cozzy and relaxed setting where we could comfortably hear each other. The only suggestion I have is to add a fan or air conditioning, although the fresh air from outside was quite refreshing.

Overall, this was a 10/10 experience, and we will definitely be back.

Highly recommended!“

“Top notch restaurant! Really great welcome!
The place is magnificent with a view of Sao Bento station. It took us a little time to find it but it was definitely worth it!
The meal is delicious! Jr recommends! not to be missed.“

“Very pleasant restaurant, a great atmosphere, we were able to taste dishes accompanied by port which were very well recommended to us. There were 3 of us wanting to share everything, we ended up keeping everything individually because it was so good! Thanks, we’ll be back soon ?“

“Everything was exceptional in this restaurant. I had the vegan Thali so I could try a little of everything and included rice, lentil stew, tofu curry, soya curry, vegetable curry and aubergine pickle. One of the best meals I've had in a long time!“

“Cozy rooftop bar without a great view, but with a lot of atmosphere and delicious food. I had a pizza with homemade ricotta, pistachio cream, salami, buffalo mozzarella and rocket, which tasted excellent. The hummus starter was ok. The bedside tables are also very versatile. All around a very good restaurant.

Vegetarian options: There is a varied vegan selection

Wheelchair accessibility: An elevator goes to the rooftop bar floor“

“Nice place. The food was excellent, lots of vegan options, about half the menu is vegan. We had the Dumpling, Moqueca and Beijing style mushroom with Hoisin sauce. Everything was tasty, but we were blown away by the dumplings. Very interesting menu overall. Would definitely recommend.“

“Very nice restaurant, close to the Solverde hotel, located in a residential building and could go unnoticed, but the surprise was fantastic, the menus are great and the quality is excellent, unremarkably friendly, it was one of the best things about our vacation“

“It was our first stop in Porto as we were looking for something close to our location and vegetarian. We did not know that it was a closed menu at noon but we were pleasantly surprised. We loved the food, the attention of the girls was impeccable. I loved the homemade kombucha and the price for the quality served seemed even cheap. A shame about the location because it is quite hidden and you have to look closely.“

“We had dinner there and it was great.
I took the cod and prawn risotto and it was a wonder! I haven’t eaten a dish so flavourful for a while.

I really appreciated that our waiters help with the wine pairing and made sure that everything was fine during our dinner.“

“Good place in an excellent location, very welcoming on two levels, friendly staff who are attentive to diners' requests. The beers were excellent, I would recommend paying more attention when cooking the meat, mine was raw. Very kind owner. Overall recommended, prices slightly lower than the local norm.“

“Small restaurant but very charming, we went inside because it was hot, but it has a terrace, we ordered the typical cod croquettes and they were very good, we opted for the fish, but the couple next to us ordered meat and they looked very good, We ordered salmon and cod, exquisite, for dessert a brownie with a very delicious ice cream, white port wine, delicious, they invited us to a shot of a wine with blackberry, also very delicious, beautiful place and the food and service were great“
