Delicious food and great hospitality! The food was very unusual and extremely tasty. The nori tacos were particularly good. We'll be back!

Local in the center of Porto, near the "Torre dos Clérigos". Quite a busy place. The staff is very friendly and attentive.
We ordered "just a salad" and some oysters to start, they were good but nothing special. The fish tiradito, quite good and fresh. The eel, very good, but it's just one bite. The preguinho had very tender meat. The desserts were correct.
In short, it was a little expensive, but recommended.

I would give 2.5 if I could.
Firstly the food was fantastic - the chefs really are dialled in. The empanadas with - tomato and cheese as well as the chorizo dish were absolutely delicious. The sides of warm bread were a nice touch and very tasty. We finished with a caramel desert which I would of had 2 of it wasn’t so late.
The problem we had with this restaurant was the service, we turned up 5 minutes early for our reservation time and then had to wait 35 minutes on the very narrow street to be seated with no idea of how long we would wait. After 25 minutes we were gifted a mouthful of wine (nice thought but given the wait a glass was required). When we were standing it was clear that the manager/owner was entertaining friends out front, which we have absolutely no problem with as long as the restaurant is running smoothly. When we were finally seated one of the managers friends, incoherently tells us what we should order, some other stuff we didn’t understand and how lucky we are to be here.
Lastly I understand it may have been a busy evening but the wait staff seemed a little frantic.
Overall the food was fantastic but the whole experience was let down by an overrun front of house and after 2 weeks around Portugal this is the first time we have experienced this . The wait with no communication of how long we would stand around, guests of the house shoe horning into our meal, the manager too focussed on entertaining friends and the general feel of organised chaos from the wait staff, left our experience a poor one.

It was a really nice experience.
Every dish had something extra, a twist we had not tried before, and was very tasty.
Would like to come again to try the rest of the menu.

Really very good. Amazing food and excellent value for money. Service and kindness of a starred but super friendly restaurant. We ate a lot with a bottle of Blanc de Blancs and spent under €100 for two. These days it's not easy at all. Alan and the other guys really have an edge. Truly an incredible added value to an already top restaurant. Highly recommended.
Dietary restrictions: I don't eat gluten and they were very attentive to my choices as well as bringing me gluten-free bread.

The waitress who served us wasn't so friendly and had no patience, and I had to chase my drink because it was too slow. Also, the food wasn't as good as expected.

Spectacular attention along with the desserts, pay attention to the waiters' recommendations. The dessert they recommend is a must-order, it is spectacular.

Flor, Micaela and the entire team of chefs have treated us wonderfully on our first night in Porto, with their warm treatment, their delicious food with Argentine seal and their continuous details to make our dinner a memorable experience. Obligatory place to eat. Thanks guys!!

First dinner in Porto..10/10
I hope the rest of Porto lives up to this culinary delight. The beef and mozzarella empanadas were the best I've ever had ?
