“Just to comment, the appreciation of some enlightened ones, in the matter of destructive criticism towards the establishment and disrespect towards the STAFF, and everything that involves, the difficulty in this area of restoration, which they only write to try to denigrate, and perhaps, because they are frustrated, and honestly, I can only consider that these or these, subjects or subjects, must have a problem of unsociability, and with all certainty, they feel so much inferiority complex, that they think for writing anything that comes out of their mind or having a little bit of encephalic mass, they already say what can happen to them at the time, without the slightest notion, and knowledge of the cause.I would like to respond one by one to the comments I can and I had the opportunity to read, because they called my attention, what they had read here, because I don't even usually read, just because I have the notion of exactly what I said above, only here write in 90% of cases, the enlightened ones, that from time to time, they are allowed to leave the house, and they have to let out a little of their frustration.Then;Some say that six slices of picanha 30€.Water in a glass bottle.Fried and refried cod, with nothing to eat.Water price.Prego in bread and recessed bread…. And more potatoes, if you already have potatoes…etc etc etcLet me know….For now, it's good that in approximately 1000.00un meals (dish of the day), from Monday to Saturday, at lunchtime, once again, I say, two or three enlightened people appear, complaining, it's a very positive balance…….As for prices going up, what hasn't gone up, we've seen that for a long time, sure, it's not news to anyone.Water in glass bottles, is duly certified, filtered and purified, like a lot they buy in hypermarkets or demijohns, any questions just ask to clarify and show the procedure, or ask to change the bottle for a plastic one, which they filled they don't know how, but it doesn't matter anymore.He found 6 slices of sirloin steak, expensive, maybe he had left the house that day, or it had been closed for about twenty years, and maybe it was better, 6 slices of chicken, with all certainty, the price he would think to spend, would be within his reach.Freshly fried codfish, and as we always have excellent feedback, on the dish of the day track, we will keep, if you are a person to eat, more than what we consider fair is acceptable for the price charged, maybe it would be better, open the purse strings, it is to fill your expectations well, order 1/2 dose and if you still don't think a dose is enough……Now to finish, thank you to everyone who also has a job, a company, or does something for a living, for the affection and understanding for those who work in this field of catering and do their best to always be in agreement and to the customer's liking, there may be failures, mistakes or less easy hours, as in all areas, nothing and no one is perfect, you need to have the common sense and ability to criticize or help to improve, with perfect reasoning….? ???Thank you to everyone who visits us, and to those who may come to visit, because without you, nothing will have meaning….A good one…..“

“Super friendly staff, Caio and Andressa, wonderful food, the first time I ate francesinha and I don't want to try it anywhere else, the chocolate ice cream with pistachio dessert was the best I've ever had in my life! Very good, I highly recommend it.“

“This restaurant and the owners are just amazing! The location is charming and we had a lovely table facing the street. People would stop by the window and look at our food which was probably the best Italian food we’ve ever had. The warm welcome by the owners as well as every item we ordered was outstanding. You receive fresh bread with olives and olive oil as much as you desire and it was scrumptious. For appetizers, we ordered a salad and chicken meatballs, and they were very delicious. For dinner, we had the salmon, Bolognese, a veggie pasta and they were cooked to perfection. The absolute star of the meal was a mushroom pasta: it was decadent and like no pasta we’ve ever tasted! The owners ( husband and wife) were SO sweet! We cannot wait to come back to Porto and eat at this absolute gem of a restaurant again!“

“The food is pretty good, but if you want cod… it's not the place. Original flavors, acceptable service and a very good atmosphere.
It is at the edge of the corridor in the Ribeira. A place to enjoy. I advise arriving before two or after three thirty. If not, wait for a table.
A curiosity. When you enter the premises you can see the floor below through the floor.
Dietary restrictions: Ask
Parking: Grim imposture in this area. Better to take a taxi or Uber“

“A must try in Porto!
We booked a meal at Flow for the last night of our holiday in Porto and it was excellent!
It is a beautiful restaurant hidden away off one of the cobbled streets. A lovely interior theme to it and great ambiance.
The food was delightful, we had starters, main and deserts and all were delicious. Standouts on my meal were the chestnut fondant served with the pork and the peanut and salted caramel cheesecake!
They had many staff on, who were all attentive and we were mainly served by Rodrigo who was very jovial and friendly!“

“Very good site. 2 spacious and very elegant rooms, very good service and very well prepared food and lots of quantity. We left very happy and we will return.
You can try many typical dishes of the city but it is not a tourist place packed with people. Very good experience“

“Place located along the Douro on the less chaotic and congested side with tourists. This gives the place a beautiful romantic atmosphere which, combined with the view of the bridge, is truly exceptional. The staff is trained and very helpful.
The dishes are simple and varied.“

“Small restaurant waiting to be found in the alleys of Porto, small and intimate, simple and genuine. Delicious dishes, of course I expected something good but not to eat so much good, definitely the best pasteis de bacalhau in Portugal. Very friendly and accommodating staff, fast service and low prices, definitely worth a try. If you love creme brulé, the milk dessert is for you.“

“During our stay in Porto, my girlfriend and I found this small, traditional restaurant. It was cozy, a bit noisy, but the food was really delicious and very affordable. The staff was friendly, and even though you might have to wait for a table, it's definitely worth it. A true hidden gem!“

“We stopped in here after long day of sightseeing in Porto. We were tired and hungry, and this place was a little oasis. My wife ordered the Seabass with sweet potato and it was excellent. I ordered the prime with fries and it was excellent also. Service was great. I would recommend.“

“Tiny place with an open bar where Hans the chef prepares all the food. We had only vegetarian dishes, and everything was amazing! Hands down, one of the best and most creative dinners I have ever had, that goes along with a great selection of wines. Service was super friendly and professional.
Vegetarian options: A decent portion of the menu is vegetarian“

“We had a dinner in Ode, and the experience was fantastic, and very unique.
To enter, you have to use a knocker to be allowed inside, and when seated, you are greeted with a welcome letter, which is very interesting, and not seen in any places that I have visited.
The interior is also very nice, with little lighting, and just stone and wood, making a very simple style.
The food was outstanding. Although the menu is quite small, the dishes are all amazingly made, with the meat and octopus tender, and the chickpeas made with bacon.
There is also a very large wine selection, which offers a large variety (as the wine menu is considerably larger than the food menu).
The staff are extremely friendly, greeting you, explaining the food options, checking for allergens, explaining the wine choice, and more.
The prices are very high, however, if possible, it is definitely a place worth visiting, for the food—and equally as much for the experience.“

“I thoroughly enjoyed my octopus! It was a giant tentacle and everything that came with complimented it nicely. It was tender and flavorful.
The pork neck was nice and came with such big sides we couldn't finish.
The waiters were attentive and lovely.
Hope to go back!“

“Found this place on our first night in Porto and ended up going back for seconds because the food was so good. The dishes sound simple but they are all very flavorful. We tried the padrón peppers, clams, fried sardines, sea bream, grilled octopus, salads and I would recommend all of them! One thing to note is that this place is cash only but they do have an ATM right outside.“

“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?“

“Nothing particularly interesting in this francesinha and in this space. Maybe it's a matter of taste, but the sauce is extremely spicy, which I don't like and doesn't allow me to fully taste the other ingredients. The sausages were nice, but the steak was too rare and dry.
The service is relatively fast but quite depersonalized. When we arrived, we waited 10 minutes at the door without any type of interaction from the staff who completely ignored our presence.“

“Very pleasant restaurant, a great atmosphere, we were able to taste dishes accompanied by port which were very well recommended to us. There were 3 of us wanting to share everything, we ended up keeping everything individually because it was so good! Thanks, we’ll be back soon ?“

“Without a doubt one of the best places to eat in Porto. Traditional food at an unbeatable price. It is perfect proof that by doing things right, having just a few tables is enough for you. A small and cozy place where you feel at home.
We ordered pataniscas, cod fritters, cod and rice.
I couldn't say what I'd choose because we take cod for granted as being good, but the rice...it's from another world. Accompanied by a green wine, it is a perfect combination.
If we look at the price we completed a perfect evening, everything was €40 (2 people).“

“The waitress offers impeccable, pleasant and agile service. Plus I heard him speak at least 4 languages...
The place is nice and cozy.
Of what we ate, I have to highly recommend the chorizo, incredible... The cod was also very delicious, with a sauce that gives it a different touch.“

“This is a local restaurant.
The location is quite remote.
I had fried octopus and sardines.
The fried sardines are really seasoned just right, and they're just rice thieves.
Overall, it is a good restaurant with good taste and reasonable price.“

“A very nice place, very attentive staff. The worst thing was the wait because since the restaurant was small we had to wait a long time.

“Lovely place, few tables and very warm treatment. The kitchen is very close and you can soak in the smells of the dishes, feeling part of the cooks' culinary experience. Although if desired there is a terrace. Very balanced and complete dishes. To repeat.
Reservation is recommended due to its space.
Vegetarian options: Varied and very balanced dishes with all the elements necessary for a good vegetarian diet.“

“Dopo aver perso la cognizione del tempo in una bella passggiata lungo il Douro, presi da un attacco di fame, siamo capitati qui e c'è andata davvero bene! Il baccalà è buono, lo abbiamo preso a bras e alla maniera di porto, entrambi interessanti e generosi, sia in quantità che in condimento. Il caposala è stato molto attento. Promosso!“

“I’m someone who truly appreciates good restaurants, and this one is absolutely exceptional!
FOOD:
- The food here is top class, with incredible attention to detail in every dish. I highly recommend the Steak with Queijo da Serra (Serra Cheese) and the Duck Magret with Porto Wine Sauce. Both dishes are exceptionally delicious, boasting a premium taste that is hard to find elsewhere. My friends had the Cod with Cornbread and mentioned that it was excellent as well.
- As for drinks, we enjoyed the White Sangria, which was delightful. The Porto Wine served after the meal was also a perfect finish. Next time, I’ll definitely try a Red Wine to complement the meal.
- For dessert, I would suggest trying the Crème Brûlée and the Portuguese Biscuit Cake; both were great!
SERVICE:
- The service was superb. Everyone was friendly, positive, and very relaxed, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Miss Beatriz, our server, did an excellent job, ensuring that we had everything we needed and felt well taken care of.
ATMOSPHERE:
- The atmosphere was, in my opinion, the best part of the experience. The environment was quiet and peaceful, allowing us to have a conversation without any loud disturbances. It was a wonderfully cozzy and relaxed setting where we could comfortably hear each other. The only suggestion I have is to add a fan or air conditioning, although the fresh air from outside was quite refreshing.
Overall, this was a 10/10 experience, and we will definitely be back.
Highly recommended!“

“The only "bad" thing is that you need you walk up many stairs if you come from the Ribeira side. Service was perfect and we ate both bacalao's dishes which were super tasteful. Views are the best in town, I would say and they offered us a limonada that was super juicy.“

J’y reviens régulièrement lors de mes passages à Porto. C’est un incontournable pour moi. Que ce soit pour les amateurs de viandes ou de morues. Cette dernière est vraiment exceptionnelle dans ce restaurant. Ne pas oublier de goûter la sangria blanche pour éveiller tous vos sens avant le repas afin de profiter pleinement de votre expérience. Pour les desserts je ne saurais que dire de plus que : essayez vous comprendrez????????“

“We came to the Lagostim restaurant yesterday afternoon... the meal was so good that it would have been a crime not to go there a second time. Returning the next evening, we were able to see again the quality of the dishes. Serious and pleasant service, and what you find on the plate is just as pleasant. Between the octopus and prawn cataplana, the sautéed shrimp, not to mention the grilled sea bass and clams à la Bulhão Pato (if you have to choose a starter... this one is to die for): it's hard to doubt the quality of the ingredients and the authenticity of the cuisine. For an authentically Portuguese meal with a setting that matches the same, we can only recommend Lagostim. It is more than certain that we will come back during our next stays in Porto, and I advise you to do the same!“

It's a shame they don't have vegetarian francesinha, which they already serve in many places.
They have other dishes, both meat, fish and even vegetarian.

“First day in Porto and immediately an unforgettable dining experience at Pátio 44. The staff was very kind and the service was quick. The presentation of the dishes was taken care of down to the smallest details. We followed the staff's advice and tried an appetizer each and a main course. The menu, as I understand it, varies depending on the seasonality of the products. Trust their taste: the chefs really know what they're doing! Each dish was balanced, fresh and flavorful. I highly recommend it to everyone.“

“It is a good place to eat food like what our grandmothers make. The dish of the day costs €4.5 and the Coca Cola costs €1.5. For €6 you can eat. The portion is correct for the price. They have takeaway service. There is no possibility of paying with Spanish cards, you must pay in cash (keep this in mind when going). There are places to park near the premises.It's a place I've been to a couple of times and whenever I can, I stop to eat. I encourage you to discover it.
Parking: It is parking on the street, it is somewhat difficult to park for trucks. You may have to park at least 50 meters from the premises and there is no pedestrian crossing nearby to cross the street.“
