Parking: Il y a un beau et grand parking, je ne saurais pas dire combien de places, mais il y en a pas mal

Wheelchair accessibility: Je n'ai pas fait attention s'il y avait une rampe pour faire monter un fauteuil roulant.“

“Visiting Taberna Burguesa in Guimarães on Mother's Day was a memorable experience for the whole family. From the moment we entered, we were enveloped by a welcoming atmosphere that only anticipated the quality of what was to come. The tapas menu was a true celebration of flavors, each dish more delicious than the last, and the impeccable service made us feel special. It's rare to find a place that can touch the heart and satisfy the palate with such mastery. I highly recommend Taberna Burguesa to everyone looking for an authentic gastronomic experience full of affection. We are already looking forward to our next visit!“

“A hidden gem tucked away in Guimarães, with the most beautiful little terrace to soak up the sunshine.
The restaurant is trendy and modern with gorgeous interiors. The staff are so friendly and the food was AMAZING!! We had their set lunch menu and the shrimp tacos were unreal. Highly recommend visiting and hoping we can squeeze in another visit before we fly home!“

“Exemplary restaurant, calm with super service and friendliness, always super attentive, at dinner with friends we had, my son with gluten intolerance had advice and support throughout the dinner, as well as some surprises from the chef , excellent, I recommend it and will repeat it.“

“The concept of the restaurant is quite interesting and different.
The amount of food in all the dishes is quite small, of course it is a gourmet food restaurant, in other words: it is designed to eat all the “4 acts” or 4 dishes and be fine, the idea is not to be full!!

Regarding the quality of the dishes and their flavor: nothing to write home about, they are all really good.⭐️

Just something to point out and easy to improve;
In the “fifth act”, the desserts could be better described because the menu only mentions the ingredients, or flavors, that your dessert will have, it does not mention the texture. In other words, you don’t know if you’re asking for ice cream, a cake, something creamy, something dry and crunchy, etc…

It's not a cheap restaurant, that's clear, but for something different and special, it's good.

Kid-friendliness: They admit children and babies but the care for them is not the best. It is noticeable that they “get in the way”. They could improve on this.“

“We were surprised by the creativity of their dishes. We liked the service, they were very attentive and treated us very well. They are a young team with a great future. They take care of all the details, from the plates to the tablecloths. We liked this small restaurant that goes beyond the Portuguese tourist menu and mixes world dishes with local cuisine.

Vegetarian options: many options, spices and aromas from around the world“

“It was not our first time when this restaurant was “on our radar”, as we visited the region one year before, and wanted to try it out. At that time, my girlfriend felt like the menu was focusing too much on fish, and I can fairly say that, one year later, wow, was she wrong :).

The location itself, whilst not very impressive from the outside, is very cozy and well designed on the inside, just perfect for a relaxed, yet memorable dining experience. The staff was very attentive and their English was spot on (I am Portuguese, but my girlfriend prefers English, so all of the dishes were explained and presented accordingly).

It’s not by chance that one of the menus was called the “Balanced” menu, as for us - who like fine dining, and are no strangers to 1 star Michelin restaurants, especially in Portugal - it was, perhaps, the most perfectly combined set of dishes we ever had.
Chef Antonio Loureiro succeeded in designing the menu in such an incredible way, that every dish (and I do not exaggerate when saying EVERY dish) was as tasty as it comes. The flavors, the attention to detail, but most importantly, the selection of ingredients, were the things that impressed us most. Looking back, it was hard to pick just one dish that stood out…because we liked them all.

We highly recommend this place, as it’s one of those hidden gems, which you should not miss, if you’re a foodie!“

“Felt genuinely welcomed and part of the family. Menu of the day options. Arrive early as it is popular but tables open quickly too. Tasty soup and meals. Definitely a place to eat at while in town. Nice vibe and decor too. Updated from previous review on 2025-04-20“

“S. Gião in Guimarães is a culinary masterpiece! This exceptional restaurant exceeded our expectations in every way. The pasta with shrimps was cooked to perfection, with succulent shrimp and a flavorful sauce. The tiramisu was creamy and divine, and the mushrooms were tender and expertly prepared. But the real surprise was the Smashed Eggs in appetizers - a game-changer!

Every single dish was top-notch, with fresh ingredients, precise technique, and presentation that was almost too beautiful to eat. Almost.

The service was attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere that made us feel right at home.

S. Gião is a must-visit for anyone in Guimarães looking for an exceptional dining experience. Don't miss out on their outstanding pasta, tiramisu, mushrooms, and Smashed Eggs - your taste buds will thank you!

Highly recommend S. Gião for a truly unforgettable meal in Guimarães. Book your table now and get ready for a culinary journey!“

“Refined and exquisite culinary experience. Dishes cooked with local products. It's been a long time since I had such an experience. Besides, it had fun and experimental sides. In addition, awareness of the ecology of the problem of plastics in the ocean.
The dishes were presented with great mastery by António. The wine list was extensive.“

“Le restaurant est un 10/10 ! Les cocktails étaient excellent surtout le mojito maracuja ! Les plats étaient succulents et la sauce miel moutarde était à tomber par terre (je regrette de ne pas avoir demander la recette). Le personnel était super sympa et souriant et se sont occupés de nous de façon royale. Nous avons beaucoup aimé l’expérience et nous reviendrons à coup sûr !“

“I've known Café Oscar since 1999, when I arrived in Portugal...from England.It's changed its image in recent years... now it's much more chic. But prices remain reasonable.I don't think there is another cafe in Guimarāes that compares to this one. Reminds us of la belle époque. ?“

“A small and super cozy restaurant
I can only say good things about both the food (look at the photos) INCREDIBLY GOOD, and the couple who served us, friendly, pleasant and super attentive
We both ate for €35.50
We ordered: saquinho de camarao (very good)
Prawns in tempura. ( very good)
Cabala Montadinho (spectacular)
Bacalhau carpaccio (very good)
Lemon pie (refreshing and nothing
cloying)
Of course, we ask for water (call us sad ?)
If you order wine you will get something else

By the way @tabuascoposeoutrascenas, we are waiting for you in Bilbao ?“

“Another great (veggie) lunch in guimaraes. We had the pasta with veggie balls and they were excellent! The service was very friendly. We visited with our little 3 month girl and it was a little noisy and we could not lie her down (no benches), but that did not ruin our experience. The service offered us a baby chair, but she can not sit yet. Thank you for the great food!“

“Ao ver a placa na entrada, fiquei tanto surpreso quanto intrigado. Vocês destacam uma comida dita "caseira" e a prioridade é dada ao sabor.
Depois, ficamos ainda mais surpreendidos com a recepção, pois o humor do proprietário, a não levar ao pé da letra. No final, realmente sentimos que a comida era caseira, mas mais do que isso, descobrimos uma culinária fina e bem trabalhada. Eu pedi as bochechas de vitela, uma explosão de sabores, uma carne muito macia e suculenta. Dá para sentir o longo tempo de cozimento e o trabalho por trás desse prato, estava simplesmente delicioso ?.

O ambiente é acolhedor, perfeito para um encontro ou para comer em total tranquilidade. Recomendo vivamente. Não hesite em explorar as ruas pequenas e não se detenha nos primeiros preconceitos. Espere até o final antes de criticar ??.“

“First of all: this place is quite hidden. You won’t see it from the street you need to enter the building that says “Generation” in the big letters. The place is very nice with an indoor terrace and the food is very delicious and healthy. Everything is vegan (and gluten free). Staff is super friendly. Prices are quite affordable as well.“

“Nice restaurant in the historic square. Staff was very friendly and helpful; service is quick, and the food was delicious and offered good value. We ate steak and cod and both of them were well cooked and tasty. Definitely deserves the high ratings :)“

“Michelin Starred Restaurantbut the service, food and drink here are so much moreA wonderful experiencestarter, main course and desserts harmonious with wine anda non-alcoholic cocktailat the end a ristretto with a Beirão liqueureverything absolutely perfectThis is how we concluded the night in Guimarães in the winter of January 2024, 10 years after our last visita toast to the whole team and a special thank you: grazzie mille“

“Amazing restaurant! We stumbled upon this place after the first place we went to was booked, and I'm very glad we did. Excellent, honest food without frills at exceedingly fair prices.

For lunch they do the old-school set menu thing with soup plus a choice of 3 or 4 mains. Plus a big jug of tap water for free. Price was 7 euros for just the main or 8 with soup. There's also a selection of desserts at extra cost, around 3 euros each. Everything we ordered was fantastic: veal stew, squid with beans, cheesecake, caramel mousse and chocolate mouse. The setting is also great - nice, funky decor and a very comfortable terrace out back.

The overall vibe was great - you could this is a real passion project. There aren't many places like this around anymore. If you're in Braga, do yourself a favor and stop by. You won't regret it.“

“I had been wanting to visit this place for about two years. Now, taking advantage of a few days of rest, I decided to try it out. And it didn't disappoint. Everything excellent, good snacks/brunch. Lots of options to please everyone. Very cozy place and very friendly service. I recommend a visit. You will definitely find something to your liking.

Venting aside... I understand the location, but for those who live in the surrounding area, parking and access are difficult. And on another note, it is a shame that this concept has not yet been adopted in the city of Braga. It was the only one of this genre I found. Something like this would be great to escape the many snack bars that are everywhere. Specialty Coffe places are accurate.“

“Manjar das Francesinhas, in Braga, offers an authentic experience, enhanced by Mr. José's spectacular service. His dedication and charisma provide a welcoming atmosphere, perfectly complementing the delicious francesinhas served with mastery, as well as great beer options.“

“After all, Saints in the house perform miracles. Being from Areias, I had been wanting to try Madeira Taste for months. It was missing! From the bolo do caco, to the cod to the kebabs, everything is great! The poncha is fabulous... Diverse menu with all the flavor of Madeira! Areias (or Além Rio) and Santo Tirso came out on top...to repeat! Several times...“

“We were four people and we did very well.
The choice fell on the Minho and Douro white wine menu.
The four-course menu is always the chef's choice and is only known when they arrive at the table.
The initial bread, crunchy, with sourdough, presided over by well-chosen olive oil and butter with… octopus roe, all received top marks.
Excellence dominated all the dishes, the soup, the fish, the meat and the final sweets, without exception. It is not important to describe them as they will not be the same on a subsequent visit.
The finish was enriched with variations of the abbey of Priscos and petit-gateaux with carrot, again with top marks.
Very professional service.
Very pleasant atmosphere on a Sunday when only one other table was occupied.
To revisit on a special day.“

“Great place to eat with family, Brazilian food (we miss some typical dishes) and the food is very good.
Well seasoned, the dishes can be shared.
We were well received by the attendants, super friendly, polite from beginning to end.
And there was also brigadeiro ❤️❤️❤️
I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to eat well!!

Kid-friendliness: Yes, the kids food was great.“

“Great place and comfortable service! The restaurant is located in a cozy central historical location. It is fashionable to sit inside or on the terrace outside. I tried the most delicious steak in Portugal. The menu includes dishes of national and European cuisine. Highly recommend!“

“We found it by chance while looking for the hotel, we returned at night to have dinner, and the place is nice, good service, the staff are attentive and friendly, the price is good, and the food was very delicious, when we left we met the cook, who He is from Vigo, and we were able to talk a little with him, very nice, 100% recommended place“

“The five of us had lunch today. Super friendly service and the burgers were super tasty. All the food was served at the same time and it was served super quickly. It's a shame I don't live in Braga. It would definitely be my favorite place.

Greetings from Germany.“

“Very pleasant surprise with this restaurant. We ordered rojões and feijoada from Trás-os-Montes as the menu of the day, served with caldo verde, regional bread and house wine, of excellent quality, for just €6.5!
The staff were very attentive and quick.
Relaxed atmosphere in the historic center of Guimarães.
Congratulations to you ?????“

“Very nice place to dine, they even gave us a choice of terrace or inside, the staff paying attention to all the details all the time. Unbeatable treatment.
All the dishes we ordered (rice, sea bass and cod) were on point, tasty and very well presented.
In short, perfect quality-quantity-price ratio.“

“An authentic gastronomic treasure hidden in the city of Braga!
Very well maintained rustic house. The menu is very varied, with obvious emphasis on the different ways of serving cod. We chose the same one wrapped in puff pastry, and I guarantee it was the most divine cod I've eaten outside of home in a long time! Only by trying it will you be sure of what I say. Even the cod fritters for starters are a positive surprise as they contain more fish (very tasty!) than potatoes.
Please note that the famous Papas de Sarrabulho are only made in winter, so don't be mistaken! There are Rojões, and the homemade desserts are worth a look... and taste. How wonderful!
The exemplary welcome from Mr. Rolando, who manages the space with his sister, is to be commended. Whether in the food advice or in the two conversations that we pleasantly maintained.
I strongly recommend a visit to this house with excellent homemade food and prices in line with what is served to us. My sincere congratulations!

Parking: There is no possibility of parking on the street. Only nearby.“

“It deserved a better location but being inside the restaurant and after appreciating everything that is available to us with unmatched friendliness and professionalism, the location is no longer of interest. Coming back and taking the opportunity to try other excellent suggestions.“

“we had lunch here and tasted their delicious cod with potatoes and the typical duck rice, as well as excellent cod croquettes and the house dessert (a yogurt flan accompanied by apricot compote).
huge portions, half rations are enough.
exceptional quality-price ratio, the kind that can no longer be found even in the most authentic taverns.“

“Simply one word: I LOVED IT!!!Very good food, well prepared, very homemade and of high quality. Meat that falls apart in your mouth and has an excellent flavor. The fresh sangria is great. Excellent and personalized service. Family and welcoming atmosphere. I really enjoyed seeing the wood ovens. D. Margarida is an excellent host.I'll be back to try the francesinhas, our mouths are all watering.WE LOVE IT!! WE LOVE IT!! WE LOVE IT!!“

“Amazing place! Just like the previous one in Apúlia, this restaurant is just amazing! Wonderful service, marvellous and tasty food… you just go and don’t want to leave! When leaving you need to return! I will return again and again and again!!!!!!!!

Parking: Just can’t park by the restaurant! Need to park around 200m away! Not bad on summer but not good in winter!!!!“

“From the moment I arrived I was greeted with exceptional service, the restaurant staff were very friendly and helpful throughout my stay.The food was simply delicious, with fresh ingredients and well prepared. The dishes were very well presented, and I could see that the kitchen values ​​the aesthetics and quality of the food.The atmosphere in the restaurant was very pleasant, with cozy decor and soft music. This added greatly to the overall dining experience, which was relaxing and memorable.Finally, the price of the meals was very fair in relation to the quality of the dishes and the service offered. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great dining experience in a warm and friendly atmosphere.“

“The restaurant is beautiful and the waitress was very friendly and attentive to us. Our daughter enjoyed her cheeseburger kids menu and we were blown away by the grilled entrecôte and grilled Dorada. We knew it would be good, but we were in for a surprise because it was wonderful!!! We even thanked the cook for preparing us a great dinner. I just want to give them 10 stars⭐️

Kid-friendliness: Splendid kids menu?“

“Everyone is very helpful and friendly. We ate there twice on the meal of the day. Prices are reasonable and their sautéed vegetables are excellent. Flavors are good. You may wait a bit at popular times. Accepts Portuguese credit card only, bring cash. Updated from previous review on 2025-04-20“

“Excellent service, congratulations, big hugs to Rafael, friendliness and professionalism, I remained a customer, I will definitely be back, see you soon, big hugs to all the staff ??

“Excellent place, we arrived at 1:30 pm on a Sunday, my husband and I, there was already a line to get in...they were impeccable in service, tasty food and a fair price... I intend to return, but I will call ahead to make an appointment, I want try the roast lamb.“

“We have visited Canté almost completely by chance. From the outside is just so discrete that you hardly imagine what's inside. As we have got the menu the curiosity around the concept ignited. As entry we have chosen Tacos de Salmão. What a way to start a meal. Excelent choice of ingredients combined in perfection and very well seasoned. As main dish arroz Thai was served. The harmony in flavour, seasoning and presentation continued. What a treat. We were so satisfied that we could not leave without tasting one of the desserts. This was undoubtably one of the best desserts we have tasted in years. Congratulations to the Chef and team. We will keep returning to Braga just to visit you.“

“Good discovery in Guimarães. We started with a beautiful ham and cheese board and then continued with a good seafood Fideua. At the end we tried a divine mint semufrio and a fantastic prestige cake. All accompanied by a local sauvignon blanc white wine. To repeat“

“A group went here to dine. The main course of lamb knuckle was delicious, without the smell of sheep. The environment was comfortable and the staff was kind. The environment looked clean and comfortable. Ordering a glass of red wine went well with the meal. There were also many locals dining in the store.“

“An exceptional gastronomic experience at this restaurant in Braga! The Bacalhau à Narcisa was simply wonderful, a traditional dish prepared with mastery. The combination of flavors was perfect, and the presentation was impeccable. Without a doubt, one of the best cod dishes I've ever tasted. I recommend this restaurant to all lovers of good Portuguese food and who value great service. Five stars to the team for culinary excellence!“

“Excellent restaurant at all levels. From welcoming customers to farewell. Always attentive and incredibly friendly and helpful. The food is great and with very generous portions. Good wine, good room close to the city center of Guimarães (by car), but far enough away to not feel the typical service for tourists where you don't feel the homely touch. Beautiful family dinner.“

“First of all, this criticism should have been made earlier, so as not to forget to do it, I am doing it now. Now, it would be difficult to really forget to evaluate this pleasant and welcoming space. The food is homemade, made with love and care. The starters are delicious, especially the blood sausage. Arriving at the main course, your belly is already full, with so many good starters. The main course afterwards, even though it is practically full, makes you want to eat until you can no longer eat, everything is delicious. To summarize things a little, I'll move on to dessert, the French toast and what a French toast! One of the best I've ever eaten in my life, I don't know what the secret is in the recipe, but I recommend leaving a little space in your belly to taste it. In this case I was served by the friendly Joana and Eugénia, where their friendliness also won me over, personally, in addition to the food, I pay a lot of attention to customer service and here they also deserve a rating of 5. Final summary, 5 stars, to come back and repeat , especially with an empty belly because here the belly comes out happy.“

“I recently went to this restaurant and had the pleasure of being served by Senhor Nuno, and I must say that his friendliness and courtesy will definitely make me come back. The food and desserts were delicious and the atmosphere of the restaurant is fantastic, with a very creative and original maritime decor. I highly recommend it!“

“Friendly service , and creative food,burgers are great and you can substitute the artisanal bread for Arepas (Venezuelan ground maze dough tortillas)great option for gluten free meal. there are vegan and vegetarian options on the menue as well. Beer is nice and cold.“

“Очень вкусная еда. Красивая подача. Оригинальное пиво, особенно бельгийское. Вежливые сотрудники и быстрое обслуживание. Всё что нужно для удовольствия. ?“

“What a delicious dinner and how comfortable we were at Dom Ferreira. We ordered the Star dish: duck rice.
Incredible. I will recommend everyone to visit this tasquinha when traveling to Braga. Out of 10 everything, food, atmosphere and service. We will be back!!“
