“I was very curious about coming here, but I was quite surprised, it exceeded all my expectations. The way customers are served is phenomenal. We ordered the Francesinha Portuguesa and Arouquesa, but at Jorge's suggestion it came half/half and I only ate the best francesinha of my life. The hat-shaped coconut pudding was the perfect ending to the dinner. A dessert that is a beautiful tribute to the city's cultural history. A very welcoming restaurant, with calm music, a beautiful terrace in the square, which at night looks very beautiful with the lights and the fountain. Jorge, thank you for the attention you give to all your customers, congratulations on your concept, for the excellent menu you offer us, you are a visionary and make a difference in restaurants. See you soon .“

“Very professional staff. Good price quality. The sausages table presented as a starter was very diverse. I ate an excellent bacalhau al fresco (fried cod with onion and French fries). Well washed down with a very good white Vinho Verde. I really liked it and I suggest you visit this place.“

“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.“

“Traditional Portuguese food with a modern touch. It's normal for it to be full of people despite how big it is: the service is fantastic, the food takes almost no time and everything looks delicious, and the prices are very reasonable. Don't forget to try the desserts, they are well worth it.
Parking: In front of the restaurant there is a path indicated with the parking sign for the restaurant itself, although there is also parking on both sides of the street on which it is located and it is not a particularly busy area, so it is easy to park.“

“I give the food 3 stars because I think it could be and has been better, I've been a customer for several years and I feel that the prices have increased but the quality of the dish served has decreased, I usually eat picanha steaks and when I started going it was excellent, today Nowadays it is 2 euros more expensive and the quality has decreased. The rest impeccable“

“Restaurant with excellent quality of food and service.
Excellent atmosphere and excellent service.
The food is very good, from the arouquesa meats to the sea bass broth rice, passing through the cheeks and ending with the fantastic desserts.
Wine cellar with lots of quality and variety.
Very good restaurant.“

“- Het eten was heerlijk, de vegetarische optie met prei is een echte aanrader! Ook de soep van de dag (dat was een groente soep) was erg lekker hetzelfde geldt voor de tomatensoep.
- De bediening was erg vriendelijk en het eten was snel klaar.
- De sfeer was zeer gezellig en het restaurant ziet er van binnen erg mooi.“

“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.?“

“Perfect! We were a very large group, of 16 people, we hadn't booked a table and they still managed to accommodate us very well. Chef Manuel Vieira is incredible, not only in his technique and unparalleled culinary skill, but also in his friendliness. The cod loin with cornbread was simply wonderful, with a perfectly executed flavor and texture. I recommend it to everyone!
Kid-friendliness: We had 6 children in the group, they were all very well accommodated, there are many food options and a kids menu.“

“An icon of traditional Portuguese food. For several generations it has maintained top quality in everything it serves.
It's really very good. Whatever the choice of the different options suggested, it is certainly a sublime proposal, as it will be made impeccably.
The general atmosphere is very welcoming and the service is spectacular.
I have been a customer for over 50 years, some periods longer than others, but every time I visit the quality is the same.
Without a doubt, a choice that never lets us down. It's always great.“

“A really unique place from service to food.
The environment also helps and the ambiance is nice.
I was impressed by the service level, very attentive and friendly.
The octopus plate was huge and delicious. The ingredients were well cooked and I can only recommend it. Probably dessert to be improved.
However, this comes at a higher price“

“Very good. We love it. We ordered a dozen pieces of veal, a dozen pieces of octopus, and a dozen pieces of black pork neck. We shared a little bit of everything with 5 adults, and we loved everything. Very good indeed. The dessert is also very good.... I recommend it 100%....... (it's a shame I didn't take a photo of the octopus and the dessert ?)“

“From booking to the end, I only have good things to say.They called as soon as I made the reservation through the app, something I don't see happening very often. I was surprised ??The lady who served us was a gem. For the kindness and conversation. Mrs. Vivida. As I told her personally, it's worth having people like her working.The eating, and followed by the instructions they gave us, everything was good ??.Fantastic experience and had a good time with friends.I can say that I will be back, without a doubt ?“

“After a whole day of traveling by chance (mr. Google) we ended up at Torcatus. At first we drove past. It is located in a secluded place between high-rise buildings and was hardly noticeable. But once inside it quickly became clear that it was a pleasant surprise! Cozy atmosphere, very friendly and helpful staff and tasty authentic food. The grilled peppers are to die for! A perfect start to the holiday :).“

“What a great surprise!! I loved everything, from arrival to departure... the starters are very good, especially the rojões with cumin and the hot garlic bread... as a dish, we ordered the grilled octopus, which was DIVINE (the sauce is delicious ) and, to finish, the desserts were also VERY surprising... they brought sliced fruit, cream milk, homemade jam, chocolate mousse and pear/pineapple in wine with cinnamon... it was impossible to say which one was better, they were so good they were...
I will definitely return whenever I can!!
I advise...“
“The food and atmosphere is nice, but it is overpriced. We had no idea that starters will cost so much, as when we usually ask for the starters we don't look at the menu. And more of that, one spoon of olive oil cost us 2.60, and when we asked a bit more we were charged again 2.60, never happened in any portuguese restaurant, even the highest class. Very disappointed and will not go back.“

“The food doesn't bring any surprises or new features - the restaurant's biggest flaw and greatest virtue.
I only remember eating the Mirandesa Veal Steak but I also don't know of any other restaurant that serves it fairly and honestly in the Porto metropolitan area.
Parking: The restaurant at the back of those accessing from Rua da Rasa, which is accessed through the small alley on the side, is very spacious and guarantees easy access to the restaurant.“

“Cozy atmosphere. Staff quite helpful.
When sitting down, we are presented with the famous board (you can do without it). I opted for prawn kebab with pineapple, I was a fan. Most dishes are individual portions in just the right size. For dessert, the cream from heaven which comes accompanied by whipped cream and toasted biscuits and passion fruit tart which I found a little lacking.“

“I just happened to be passing by while walking to a grocery market, and the smell of the BBQ captured me. The place was bustling with people. I came back to get some BBQ chicken without sauce, just original. I asked for half a chicken but only the dark meat (thighs and legs) since I don’t like breast meat. I used Google Translator to ask. All the staff appeared attentive and friendly, though in a no-nonsense way. They weren’t smiling or anything when you walked in, but they were attentive to your needs. For the value, too, it was affordable and delicious.“

“First experience in the middle of a Medieval Journey. I only have good things to say. Fast and attentive service. We ordered veal, it was delicious as were the side dishes. I ordered sangria, very tasty. They have children's menus, we ordered one and my daughter loved it. I highly recommend it. I will come back. The price I mention per person includes a dessert and a charcuterie board. Therefore it has an excellent quality/price ratio.“

“D Henrique is perhaps the poshest restaurant on Rua 25 de Abril, or restaurant-street as I call it, in the middle of the town. Inside it’s a lovely venue but even outside the service shows they want to set a high standard. We have eaten here before and were not disappointed. Good food, attentive service, nice ambiance, what is not to like? It’s not so cheap as other places nearby but then quality never was. Give it a try.“

“Our Trip Advisor food and wine guide Enrico in Lisbon recommended we have dinner at "Manels" when visiting Porto. It did not disappoint. We met up with friends who met on the Lisbon tour to experience an authentic night of Portuguese local cuisine. We had four reserved seats at the bar pictured here with our friendly and attentive service Livia. She did an outstanding job recommending 3 of the most popular entrees for us to share. Appetizers came out first cod croquettes and octopus salad. While I might not have believed it, I had thirds of the octopus salad, it was absolutely delicious. Livia recommended the house "jar wine" which we would describe as a large carafe versus ordering a bottle of wine. It was smooth as velvet and topped off a perfect meal. After our meal, Livia walked us to the upstairs restaurant which was packed with locals. For us, the bar was the ideal location where we could hear better, learn about our food and wine from Livia, and experience such warm hospitality. The price for such an evening, splitting the check with our friends was only $59 USD including our tip. Portugal is an exceptional value for American tourists.“

“Incredible!! We loved everything, the food was great, the sangria was spectacular and the best of all was the service provided by Fabiana, who was very attentive and friendly! All companies would like to have an employee like this, she must be recognized for her merit. If we have the opportunity to return, in addition to the food, it will be for the service experience.PS: we recommend prawns and Bourguesinha ?“

“You could walk right by this place without knowing it was there. An unassuming door with stairs leading to the first floor. Super fresh fish perfectly grilled served with a fresh salad and boiled potatoes. Delicious! Delicious! Delicious! The views across the valley from the kitchen window are incredible.“
“A wonderful gem in almost middle of nowhere. They have this fantastic japanese inspired menu, very unexpected, along with some more traditional food. The service was really nice and relaxed. Liked talking to the waiter who was very helpful. If I am ever around here again, I will definitely come back.“

“When: 2023 to now (several times)
How much: always around €70-€90 (3 people)
Praceta is, without a doubt, one of my go-to restaurants when I miss a good pasta dish.
It has the elegant atmosphere of a ristorante, but the friendliness of a trattoria and staff always ready to help the most indecisive minds.
The pastas are, for me, the gold of the dish, along with the desserts, but the pizza is also good (although I'm not a fan of balsamic vinegar on pizza as a topping).
It fills up very quickly and doesn't take reservations, so I recommend either going early or bringing a book while you wait.
Parking: Before reaching Rua do Praceta there is a free car park that usually always has spaces available.“

“Top service, the food is delicious and well prepared.
A pleasant, beautiful and welcoming space, especially the terrace that makes us feel like we are dining in a garden.
Friendly staff.
The white sangria is divine.
I recommend.“
“The usual café/snack bar, which still maintains the typical spirit of this type of establishment. It has a privileged view over Avenida da República. The service is friendly, although a little slow. I ordered a piece of toast and a gallon, which took me a long time. I then asked to take away an assortment of delicious typical Portuguese pastries, which were superb!“

“We had our lunch here on our group trip with Wendy Wu tours. The food and the service was outstanding and seeing the opera singer in the square before we went for lunch was a real treat. The owner of the restaurant was so friendly and could not do enough for our group. Big thank you for an excellent lunch.“
“Carlos was a great help in suggesting the right wine, food and things to do in Porto. Food was good and wine great. The Fado, two singers accompanied by three players, had great 3 sets. Singing between dishes. Overall an excellent experience. Restaurant was 1/2 empty (slow season). Price 120 Euros.“

“Hello! I ordered the octopus and prawn sautéed with fries and salad (€18): delicious and generous in quantity. The apple crumble (5€) was also divine ?
Beautiful/light space and friendly staff! The only “snag” is that it could be considered with prices a little above average, but it was worth it. I recommend it ??“

“I had reserved a table 24 hours before, and called the day before to announce a slight delay (but to continue with the reservation!). I understand that you don't want to have a reserved table and people waiting, but when I arrived, I ended up having to wait for myself and my family. It was enough that they had said at the time of the phone call that they would no longer guarantee the reservation for the reasons mentioned above.But that doesn't detract from the pleasant atmosphere and well-prepared food.Restaurant without luxuries, clean and pleasant. Well prepared food and generous servings.On repeat ❤️“

“I went to have lunch with a friend and we decided to come and try out this restaurant since we've both heard good things about it before.I had the peito de "frango recheado com alheira", the "carpaccio de vitela com queijo da ilha, rúcula e azeite de trufa" and the "leite creme" for dessert.Overall, I'd say the experience was above average, all the food was good, but nothing out of the ordinary, the wait staff was friendly and responsive and the restaurant had a good, but not very memorable, atmosphere.“

“(Translated by Google) We ate well here. The chef cooks great. But the service spoiled everything. They took the order, and gave it to the next table, and the waiter was not embarrassed that a person had been sitting at the next table without food for half an hour. Here even I was surprised. Ate for 8 euros with a drink and coffee. Cash is accepted for payment. The card cannot be redeemed. As an option mbway.(Original)Пообедали тут хорошо. Повар готовит отлично. Но все впечателние испортило обслуживание. Приняли заказ, а выдали его за соседний стол и официанта не смутило что за соседним сидит человек без еды уже пол часа. Тут даже я удивился. Поели на 8 евро с напитком и кофе. К оплате принимают наличные. Картой раслатится нельзя. Как вариант mbway.“
“(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 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.
