An excellent experience of original and very refined Portuguese dishes. The service was great! The decor just as original. I highly recommend.

Interesting flavors but ridiculously small portions and overpriced for the quantity/quality. We left the restaurant and went to eat a sandwich because it was after 10 p.m.... If you have money and not hungry you can treat yourself.

The seabass was too salty for my taste. And since the side dish was so small and also too salty, I had to neutralize the taste with the starter bread which costed extra. Also, I sat outside without reservation while watching a hesitant group finally decided to eat here and was led inside. Although the staff were nice and polite, overall, I was let down by the price–performance ratio, considering the high review score.

Excellent food. Had 7 plates for 3 people Baobun, beef croquettes (small plates) amazing. Seabass, cod, carrot and pork tortellini all fab too. Great service. Bit pricey but worth it. Would recommend

We decided to come here on vacation after reading about it online and seeing the decent reviews. Sadly, we missed the more recent reviews.The food here is mediocre and overpriced for the portion size, comparable to what you would pay in NYC. The best dish was probably the carrots, which were sweet and savory. Everything else was over salted/seasoned, though the individual components were good (eg the croquette themselves were delicious but the sauce on top literally tasted like a block of salt, and the sea bass was well cooked but again, had salt flakes on top for some reason). The food portions were pretty small. There was a charge for tap water as well..Not sure if the food has gotten worse or the kitchens were having an off day. The table next to us actually told the servers to stop serving the rest of their order after 2 dishes, so I don’t think it was just us.Of note, service was great and the servers were very friendly. They didn’t charge us for the croquettes after we asked if it should be that salty, and they said it was slightly saltier than regular.

Good place, rich and elaborate dishes but better not to come hungry. Price a tad expensive, they charge you 2.50 per cover.

The food was great! My fav personally was the tuna tartar and bolo Berlim. The only thing is that the arroz da cabidela here was too “vinegary” tasting, because of the liver, for my preference, but still it’s a great restaurant.

Best place I’ve tried in Porto! This is definitely on the top 1%. Depth of flavour, innovative ways to adapt local classics. Great service, great wines and cocktails. Can’t wait to come back!

The service is even good. Unfortunately this is basically the positive point of the place.The first problem is the environment, it tries to be cozy with warm light, but it's too dark, you can't see the dishes.The decoration also has some rough things, a plate where my food came looked like it was all dirty, so I tried to scrub off the dirt and discovered that it was just a decorative painting of dubious taste.Finally the food. Which has a horrible cost-benefit ratio. They charge for tap water (which the law says must be offered free of charge) and they charge for a very crude cabbage (some hard, dry pieces of bread with a tiny handful of seasoned butter. That little pot of butter as a hotel toast comes with more butter). And the dishes are all tiny, for example the 4 euro Berlin ball is just a small ball.The taste of the food was kind of sad. The croquette was excellent. The Berlin ball was a bit strange. The 450-day void was an atrocious deal, I felt like I took 50 euros and stuck it up my nose. The meat we ordered rare came raw. It was also tough, I've never seen almost raw meat tough before this. And some pieces had salt, others didn't. And no seasoning. The cuts were also poorly made, some pieces were separated and others were not.The impression is that the technique for making the Void was to beat the ox until it agreed to be a plate of food and fall dead, and then throw salt on top of it, use a blowtorch to brown the outside, and serve, the meat was cold, hard and almost raw, a horror, I was amazed, my wife was so shocked that with such a waste of money on an incompetent dish that she was in an epic bad mood.Before going to the restaurant, I hit my finger on the corner of the table at home, and I had horrible pain. I'd rather repeat the experience of banging my finger on the corner of the table than eating that Empty dish again.
