It is very good. The staff was friendly and the food was wonderful, both in appearance and taste.
In conclusion, I recommend this ice cream shop.“

“Parma burger accompanied by mushroom risotto, spectacular. Excellent top floor, quiet, away from the hustle and bustle of the shopping mall. To enjoy a meal in peace. Great and very attentive service.

Parking: Shopping Mall Parking Lot.“

“Colorful space with a pleasant and welcoming atmosphere. Olive oil and garlic bread is always an excellent starter option. The menu includes oven-baked pasta and pizza, including vegetarian options. Good quality - price ratio. If you need to go to the bathroom you will have a funny surprise.“

“This is a family-owned pizzeria in Leça da Palmeira, in the Take-Away style, with over 35 years of existence. Without a doubt one of the best Italian-style pizzas I've ever tried. Thin dough and top-notch fresh ingredients make this the best pizzeria in the region. The environment is pleasant and intimate for few people. For the restaurant, I recommend arriving early or booking via The Fork App.“

“An excellent service with friendly and professional staff.
The garlic bread is so good, that when I remembered to take a photo it was already over ??
The pizzas chosen were the Tropical with egg (cheese, tomato, organ, banana, apple and pineapple) and Peperoni and they were both delicious.
To drink good but not very fresh white sangria and cold, filtered water served in a glass bottle.
Dessert...the reason for not having 5 stars...little choice and what was available was already gone.
I finished with a reasonable LAVAZZA coffee“

“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.“

“We were in Porto for only a few days and happened upon Mamma Mia. Great pizza and pasta and friendly service. We ended up there twice and both times were great! We shared a small pizza and a pasta and we were both impressed. Thank you.Mamma Mia!“

“SUMMARY: THE BEST CARBONARA I HAVE EVER EAT, AND I HAVE BEEN TO ALL THE FAMOUS THINGS IN ROME.
Now more in detail.

We came from a walk, and the letter caught our attention. Super discreet place, there was no one inside the restaurant, but it looked good and we took a chance.

Everyone was very friendly, since it was just us, and the food is spectacular. They put the carbonara on the menu as if it had bacon, but the guy, who is really Italian, made it with guanciale, as it should.
And it was INCREDIBLE, better than Osteria Fortunata and those in Rome.

So far, one of the places where I have eaten the best. I give it a 200/10“

“It was good food! The portions were good and the presentation was very nice.

Vegetarian options: There were many things even without meat.

Dietary restrictions: You can indicate things that you want to remove or add.“

“It's so delicious and the meat is soft~~
It's a bit pricey, but considering the staff's service and atmosphere, I think it's well worth the price! It was a place where sangria and wine were really delicious!! I recommend it ?“

“I hed eat ? pizza yesterday in ciro Umberto restaurant it's very delicious I didn't eat same on other places staff also very friendly it was very good Sunday thanks ciro ..

Vegetarian options: Pizza vegan with vegan cheese 6 veg pizza' s in menu“

“To come to this place i had probably the longest walk I ever did in Porto. So I was building a lot of expectations along the 2 hour walk.
I have to say that the overall price quality ratio is not bad. However I did not understand the hype of the tomato soup. Its just tomato concentrate with sugar and salt. Probably no fresh tomatoes were used in preparing the soup.
The pizzas however were up to expectations, it's a proper wooden fired oven and the ingredients are fresh. The tomato sauce and the cheese are authentic and only one person in my group found the pizza too fatty, with excess truffle oil.
The limoncello is nothing special and didn't try deserts.
It's a good pizza, but not worth the detour if you are visiting for few days. There are better options in nearer areas, like Foz and Matosinhos.“

“It closes at ten thirty and there was no longer a table because we arrived almost at ten at night. Even so, he was very friendly and took us to take away. We ordered three pizzas and they were all very good, pepperonni, Portuguese and 5 cheeses.“

“The food was excellent.
I had the vegetarian pizza and it was soooooo delicious, I can recomend this place to every one who is in porto and likes good food.

To drink i had a homemade ginger and rosmarin ice tea. The ice tea also was perfect.

But the best was the waiter who is super nice and funny and the sweet waitress.

I would come here every time again“

“I was positively surprised by the restaurant. The facade doesn't attract attention, but it has a spacious, cozy atmosphere and, of course, delicious food. My husband ordered pasta and I ordered fish. Everything is delicious. The pizzas that passed by us looked appetizing. Dessert was no exception. Prices are not the cheapest nor the most expensive. I highly recommend it and will be back soon.“

“The restaurant has very good ambient music, calm, relaxing, and the food is divine. Homemade butter is recommended and the prawn risotto was delicious. The desserts are delicious. The service is very attentive, attentive to customer requests, with a relaxed and professional atmosphere. The decoration demonstrates refinement. The wood oven, for those who enter, gives a cozy atmosphere even in summer. The olive tree, at the back of the room, is, to use gastronomic language, the icing on the cake.“

“I was treated to a trip to this restaurant on my birthday by my better half, and it was a great surprise and a wonderful experience. I have Italian origins and I can say that the food corresponds! Quality ingredients, well served and very tasty Italian style dishes. Careful and friendly service. The interior of the restaurant is beautiful, the music matches the space, which is not always the case. The desserts were great too, after a whole range of flavors tried in the chosen dishes. Without a doubt a restaurant to repeat :)“

“Delicious food and friendly, helpful staff. Tasty cheese selection. Beware of the street musicians though, even if you're not paying attention and just enjoying your meal, they'll come up to your table and ask you for money. They even have card terminals, which was quite annoying, especially if you don't like their music. Better tip the waiters!:)“

“Great experience at this restaurant. The atmosphere among the staff is great, and other catering establishments can learn something from hospitality. After a wonderful first evening with a delicious pizza, Pina colada and ice cream for dessert, I was recognized 3 days later by the staff from that evening! Cordiality is real/authentic and not pretended. I enjoyed it so much that I went back a second time (last evening) for beef entrecote, Pina colada and delicious tiramisu (really the tastiest I have ever tasted). Thank you for the wonderful evenings and keep it up! A la proxima! Zach, Dani, Millena and Philippa“

“I've been to this restaurant more than once and I highly recommend it! Delicious food, well prepared and impeccable service, with helpful and very friendly staff.I recommend the lasagna which is heavenly and the mushroom risotto which is wonderful.An experience to repeat whenever possible.“

“One of the most emblematic pizzerias in Porto, it has been around for a few decades. Friendly and competent service...
The garlic bread is divine but in general everything is good and well prepared.
My favorite is the cipole pizza with onion and chorizo.
Ideal place for a quick meal but also for something longer with a group.
The lack of parking is a problem, but on the back street there is a public park that is approximately a 5-minute walk away.“

“I couldn't be more grateful for the service and attention. We arrived with a year and a half baby and they were super good with us (and with him) they gave us a lot of options for games and material to entertain him and have a good time.

Very delicious food! We ordered a lasagna and a margherita pizza! Both highly recommended, the perfect portion!

Kid-friendliness: Variety of games for children, and a specific section on the menu for them.“

“Vraiment sympa le resto. Service chaleureux et plats délicieux. On a pris pizza and tagliatelles aux champignons, c'est très bon!
The boss and staff are very warm and friendly, and the pizza and mushroom cream pasta are very delicious!“

“- Unfortunately the pizza doesn't taste good at all. Definitely recommended to stay away from it. The pizza base is dry and boring and the toppings tasted bland.

• Facilities are only okay, so the ambience is deducted
• The service was bad-tempered and therefore neither friendly nor unfriendly. Maybe it's because the service doesn't get the tip directly because you pay at the cash register when you leave (collective tip).

+ The pasta is very tasty and highly recommended and according to the menu, some of it is homemade.
The ambience on the bank with a view of the river and the old city railway is very nice.“

“The garlic bread as a starter was delicious, the salad was also very good, the service was good, but I was still drinking wine when they came to offer coffee, I asked to be later, it was 3 in the afternoon and no one came to offer coffee , I had to get up to pay and have coffee somewhere else.“

“Nice place, hotel in downtown Porto with beautiful Italian cuisine.
We ate a pasta with prawns with a great aroma of olive oil which was incredible, salmon with sweet potato puree which was beautiful with every detail well presented. The staff was very fun, and very sophisticated, we ate and drank well!!! Congratulations on the impeccable kitchen. Congratulations to the room, which was very well organized, a good company!“

“(Translated by Google) Excellent place very well decorated, with well-prepared and varied dishes and good dessertsA lot of friendliness from the staff.I recommend garlic bread and francesinha in the oven 5⭐(Original)Exelente local muito bem decorado, com pratos bem confecionados e variados e boas sobremesasMuita simpatia por parte do staff.Recomendo entrada pão de alho e francesinha no forno 5⭐“

“Great place with great quality food.
Iwe go there a lot, but today was so hot & AC was not working properly.
We wanted to sit by the view they said only opens at 7pm, when it was 7pm we asked for a transfer then they said all reserved“

“We had a fantastic meal from Pasta Amore e Fantasia! The linguine with truffle oil was incredibly delicious, and the Bolognese pasta (we substituted fusilli for linguine) was very delicious. The staff was amendable to our littles, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Definitely recommended!“

“This restaurant and the owners are just amazing! The location is charming and we had a lovely table facing the street. People would stop by the window and look at our food which was probably the best Italian food we’ve ever had. The warm welcome by the owners as well as every item we ordered was outstanding. You receive fresh bread with olives and olive oil as much as you desire and it was scrumptious. For appetizers, we ordered a salad and chicken meatballs, and they were very delicious. For dinner, we had the salmon, Bolognese, a veggie pasta and they were cooked to perfection. The absolute star of the meal was a mushroom pasta: it was decadent and like no pasta we’ve ever tasted! The owners ( husband and wife) were SO sweet! We cannot wait to come back to Porto and eat at this absolute gem of a restaurant again!“

“A lovely Italian restaurant with a cool spacious interior and tasty dishes, the staff were very kind and the food was portioned decently in my opinion. I got the pesto bursts pasta and it was delicious, the others got pizzas and were also very happy“

“It used to be good... Not anymore.
They require each person to order a pizza.
They do not allow sharing.
We then placed a delivery order.
The pizzas were poorly/understuffed, very thin crust.
It's not what it was anymore.
I have been a customer for over 3 years and now the experience is bad.
I don't recommend it.“

“Such a sweet little restaurant. The waitresses spoke English which was very convenient.
The food was great, we had the vegetarian tortellini and lasagna bolognese which were both outstanding. Not expensive either, we paid 17,50 per person for main course and desert. The tiramisu was super fluffy and creamy, would recommend!“

“(Translated by Google) Thin and crispy pizza, very well made.Friendly service.For delivery they are fast and the pizza arrives warm.(Original)Pizza fininha e crocante, muito bem confeccionada.Atendimento simpático.Para a entrega são rápidos e a pizza chega sem quentinha.“

“Today we had dinner as a family, once again very satisfied.
The Dalton employee who welcomed and served us was excellent in friendliness and professionalism.
Congratulations, much happiness and success!!
We will be back soon!!“

“Good surprise. Restaurant somewhat hidden between awnings and without a clearly visible name. When you enter, the atmosphere is peaceful but the space is relatively small. Delicious pizzas with well-made dough and a good tomato base. Well-crafted pasta. Good desserts. Very helpful staff.“

“Lasagna and absolutely delicious pizzas!!!
Traditional freshly prepared with a very authentic Italian style flavor.
Small but cozy dining room.
Attentive and helpful staff.
I recommend it and I will certainly be back soon!“

“Generous portions, must try hot chilli oil and house garlic bread was to die for. One block up from the overpriced touristy places you’ll find delicious food, very attentive service and good choice for a fairly priced place to eat when in Porto!“

“Vacationing from the US. Happened upon this wonderful restaurant. The pizza was actually the best I have ever had .. delicious. Bacon wrapped prawns were amazing. Catarina and Luís were delightful; treated us to a port wine to end a great evening. Highly recommend!

Parking: Found a spot without difficulty.“

“Very good lunch we had with the family. Very detailed and the food in general of good quality. In particular, an Anonenar dessert "pa d'or" was delicious! The service, very attentive, friendly and professional. The price is about €17 per head. Recommended!!!“

“Visited this restaurant because of the distance from our accommodation.

Service was very friendly & pizza tasted good.

Upon arrival we were immediately served a small appetizer (without asking beforehand) (see photo); which of course we were billed for.

The outdoor area was nice, but if it had been full it would have been very restless.
It is also exposed to strong winds despite the wind protection being installed.

• It would be nice if the menu still had VEGAN dishes to choose from :)

Conclusion: Local is recommended! ?“

“This place is magical for me! I had a very bad day because my apartment reservation was cancelled last minute. Imagine being first time in a new country and you don't speak the language and you don't have a place to stay. I went to this restaurant to have dinner and not only was the food delicious, the people who work there are among the loveliest people. I think it's a family run restaurant. They let me charge my phone as well and they were just so kind and helpful. The place also has a great vibe and very clean too. Very highly recommended if you are around the area!“

“(Translated by Google) Tomatino makes the best lasagna I've ever had. I always order tomato sauce and bechamel and I'm always delighted with the taste. Irresistible.(Original)O Tomatino faz a melhor lasanha que já alguma vez comi. Peço sempre molho de tomate e bechamel e fico sempre maravilhada com o sabor. Irresistível.“

“Dining at Obicà was an unforgettable experience that exceeded all our expectations. From start to finish, every dish we tried was nothing short of spectacular.

We began with the Tomato Carpaccio, a refreshing and vibrant start to our meal. The flavors were incredibly fresh, making each bite a delightful experience. Following that, we enjoyed the Bres Salade, which was a perfect blend of crisp greens and savory components, balancing textures and tastes beautifully.

Our main courses were equally impressive. The Spicy Pizza had just the right amount of heat, combined with a perfectly crispy crust and rich, flavorful toppings. It was a true masterpiece. The highlight of our meal was undoubtedly the Truffle Pasta. It was as luxurious and indulgent as a dish you’d find in a two-star Michelin restaurant, with an aroma and taste that left us craving more.

To top it all off, our server was magnificent, providing impeccable service with a warm and welcoming attitude that made our dining experience even more enjoyable.

Truly amazing food and exceptional service. We can’t wait to return to Obicà!“

“Nice place with good food. Pretend to be Italian but is not, you can perceive it from some mistake on the menu that shows the non "italianity" and the fact that what they call piazza Diavola in Italy would be completely different. Overall appreciated the food and the location.“

“It may seem like just another ice cream shop, but believe me it's not! In addition to the very beautiful petal shape, the flavor is excellent. Nothing artificial, you really feel the true flavor of the ice cream.
I highly recommend it!“

“Very Good, In fact Excellent Food, Service. Fantastic. Mainly the 1 dish I ordered: Carbonara. It is a Passionate Establishment, whether in the Food, in the Service, in the Environment, in the Service Employees, I loved it. As the Italians say; é molto buonno (I think it's well written?). Many congratulations. I never thought it would be like this. I recommend going, especially for lovers, married couples, newly engaged couples and newlyweds, of course, because it is an extraordinary place for romance. Very Good ?❤️✌️??“
