Located in front of Praça Carlos Alberto, in the heart of the city of Porto, Casa Expresso is an iconic place and a true reference of Portuguese gastronomy and traditional flavors. Spaces like this are a rarity these days, which are urgently needed to preserve, where you can feel the Tripeiro spirit, of the old Tascas/Casas de pasto in Porto. Traditional Portuguese cuisine of excellent preparation/quality and lots of flavor. Between a quick lunch, a tasty snack or an excellent dinner, a wide range of solutions from opening to closing. Speed and efficiency of service are the House's main items. A wide variety of snacks and sandwiches, where the signature dishes are the Sande de Rojão and the Sande de Presunto. My option was a snack, consisting of Cod fritters and Rojão sandwiches, which were delicious. I finished the tasting with a spicy Queijo da Serra with Salpicão of excellent flavor. Good price/quality/service ratio. Good service, great availability and a lot of friendliness from the entire staff. Congratulations to the Owner, to whom I wish continued success in preserving this Excellent House.
I highly recommend it?

Fantastic experience. A welcoming place, a small counter and two rooms for diners to enjoy. Typical Portuguese and regional food. First class attention. The Sandes de Rojão, Papas de Sarrabulho and the Cruet Pie are simply delicious. Best of all: the owners there recommending you, serving you and telling you their stories. An essential place in Porto. Always come back!!!

Always a good option for lunch or dinner. Typical Portuguese dishes, lots of flavor and fair prices especially considering the location. At night there is almost always a wait, but there is an option to eat at the counter if you are alone or with a few people. The rojão sandwich is the star of the menu.

Casa Expresso is the type of restaurant you might not necessarily notice from the outside, but it’s definitely a hidden gem in Porto. The menu offers a great selection of traditional Portuguese dishes, all prepared with fresh ingredients and a lot of care. The prices are very fair, especially considering the high quality of the food. A lot of locals dine here, which is always a good sign. If you're in Porto, Casa Expresso is definitely worth a visit!

Excellent treatment. It's worth it just for the atmosphere. The beef sandwich is incredible!!! The only thing I don't recommend is the chicken, very dry

A happening place for locals gathering for a quick bite. I was here during 3pm lunch seeing all the hard workers. The guys working here are super efficient and friendly. Really enjoyed the Rojas pork butt sandwich. A generous filling sandwich. If you feel like being in a lively environment come here to this popular Tavern!
