“It became a habit to visit and eat the beautiful francesinha!! I'm a Francesinha fan and it's been a long time since I've eaten one so tasty and with such familiar service. Without a doubt, I am no longer able to go straight home after the trip without first stopping by this spectacular place. Very attentive with the children to the point that it is my daughter who already asks me to go there. She is 5 years old ? May 12th we are back ?“

“If you are eating at only one restaurant this year, come here. I was served the Vitela (Veal) with potatoes, rice, vegetables, black beans.
Without a doubt, this is the best veal I have ever eaten.
Watch out for the starters, there is a lot of food so come very hungry.

The rest of our group came here specifically for the arroz de cabidela, a speciality here. I can't eat that and asked for something different and I was blessed with the Veal.

I could easily fast 6 days to have this meal on the 7th day.“

“A surprising treat. We picked this little bar/cafe as it was around the corner from our hotel and we’d walked all day and didn’t want to go far. We honestly didn’t expect much but not only was it a friendly little place but the service and food was homemade and delicious!“

“(Translated by Google) Top restaurant. The suckling pig is very good (which I always order????). And very friendly staff. It just does not accept payment by ATM, which is not always practical.But I definitely recommend it.(Original)Restaurante top. O leitão é muito bom (o que peço sempre????). E o pessoal muito simpático. Só não aceita pagamento por multibanco o que nem sempre é prático.Mas recomendo sem dúvida.“

“Excellent sea bream. I have rarely eaten something so good. Very tasty and very well cooked.The soup is good as well as the mango.On the other hand, monitor your hearing because you may be charged for the bread even though you have not touched it.Mango is very expensive, €6 for one fruit is excessive.The price of the sea bream is reasonable and the potatoes are very well cooked and tasty.The buttered spinach is very good.Restaurant reserved for initiates or connoisseurs because behind the airport. It's not that easy to find.I recommend it before taking the plane in order to keep good memories of Portuguese cuisine.“

“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.“

“Love this place! Exquisite, creative cuisine made with love for the local produce. But that’s not even the best part - the staff here is! Very knowledgeable, witty and courteous, and we really enjoyed the wine pairings that they recommended. Great value for money and definitely one of the most well-deserved additions to the Michelin guide. We are already planning our next visit to Porto to eat here while further exploring the city!“

“Everything was magnificent, the taste of the food was exceptional, the two girls who served us were attentive to everything.
We would definitely repeat.
Just 7 minutes from the river, it's worth the climb!
Thank you for serving us so well!“

“I went with a group of people and I confess that I was a little skeptical about the place, based on what I had heard and especially the prices charged. However, fortunately it was a good surprise. The service is discreet and efficient without much conversation, but everything arrives at the table at a good pace. Dinner was long and everything I tried was of excellent quality and with great care in presentation. Above all, the mixed meats were surprising due to their quality, as were the desserts. I liked the room, the environment is more complicated because there are several tables and groups in this case, it makes the environment more stuffy and noisy but that doesn't help, but without disturbing. In short, it won't be a place you can go "always" but it's an excellent option in this city for those looking to eat quality meat and beyond. I didn't have the opportunity to see the wine list because it was already chosen and I can't comment, it will be for analysis on a next visit.

Wheelchair accessibility: Has access ramps“

“The service was the best of any restaurant ever.. It was so good that I was surprised that I could ever receive such service.
The male employee wearing glasses is very kind and the service is very good. I hope you are happy?
Of course the food was delicious, but it was a steakhouse that felt even better because they were so friendly ❣️
A restaurant where everything was perfect...: I really recommend it??
TA BOM!!“

“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.“

“Wonderful place filled with giant strelitzia plants? The service was a little slow to begin with and it took a while before we got the menus. Then it was all forgiven because the ladies were such sweet and accommodating The food was delightful for the the eye and and mouth, the wines perfect accompanied. We are super satisfied for the whole experience? They also provided us a perfect table for one of the diners who sits in a wheelchair. Thank you for a lovely last supper in Portugal?“

“Probably one of the best steak houses I have ever been to in Portugal. It’s just the service the welcome drink , the atmosphere, the flavour of the food, the different interpretations of classic dishes the smiles, the music! I can keep going EAT HERE AND GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY !“

“The place is unbelievable. Simple yet elegant. Food menu exquisite with the best service I've ever had. I have some severe food allergies that they accommodated without question or feed back. The servers were quick to help and knew exactly how to maneuver the menu accordingly. Ask for Julia she's the best???“

“Very pleasant place to have an aperitif with the late afternoon sun on the terrace. The interior is very welcoming and original. We liked the vinho verde, but beer was very popular on the terrace. Nice neighborhood place where you don't feel too many tourists (even if we were!). Great!!!“

“Absolutely outstanding restaurant. The chef creativity and execution of the food was incredible. The service was impeccable, very knowledgeable staff. Daniel was great!

We tried the Scallops, which were divine. We then the octopus which was also very good. These were matched with Sidonio de Sousa sparkling wine. We then had the Sea Bass with clams risotto - this was an absolutely outstanding dish! Wow... Finally we tried the lobster with a delicious risotto as well. These dishes were matched with Insula Chao de Lavas, an outstanding wine, perfectly matching the dishes. Finally, we tried their version of the tiramisu...again what a version! Delicious and matching was the fantastic Vinho Madeira Borges! All in all an excellent dinner! Thank you to all the team..“

“My husband and I ate at tasco last night and couldn’t leave Porto without giving a review. One of the best dinner experiences we’ve had while traveling. Beautiful restaurant on a slightly less busy street. The food was incredible - creative and cool while also being delicious and crushable. The people serving us were wonderful - Joel and Bernardo especially. You feel like you belong there, which is a fresh feeling as a tourist. Highly recommend making the time to eat here if you are foodies like us. Obrigada, tasco!“

“SUMMARY: THE BEST CARBONARA I HAVE EVER EAT, AND I HAVE BEEN TO ALL THE FAMOUS THINGS IN ROME.
Now more in detail.

We came from a walk, and the letter caught our attention. Super discreet place, there was no one inside the restaurant, but it looked good and we took a chance.

Everyone was very friendly, since it was just us, and the food is spectacular. They put the carbonara on the menu as if it had bacon, but the guy, who is really Italian, made it with guanciale, as it should.
And it was INCREDIBLE, better than Osteria Fortunata and those in Rome.

So far, one of the places where I have eaten the best. I give it a 200/10“

“On August 6 we met the restaurant Brasão Aliados, it was our first time there, we arrived at the restaurant without having reserved, they welcomed us directly with a smile and accompanied us to our table.
We ordered 2 cocktails as well as 2 drinks, 2 francesinhas, a portion of fries and starters. It came to us at €59, it wasn't expensive at all and the wait wasn't long.
The waiter Augusto was very cheerful and pleasant, we felt very professional on his part with a desire to do his job well. A very good person, thank you for serving us so well and for your kindness.
We had a great time in the restaurant.
We will not hesitate to come back, 100% recommended place.“

“Alles was perfect! We hebben even in de rij moeten wachten maar was het helemaal waard. De eigenaar was echt super aardig en gezellig, kon goed Engels en erg spontaan. Het eten was super! Er zijn maar weinig tafels aanwezig, vandaar de rij maar dat geeft wel lekkere sfeer aan. Zeker aan te raden!“

“Gosto de tudo na Padoca em Gaia. A comida, e agora com novos menus ao jantar, o espaço sofreu obras e está ainda mais aconchegante, e o staff é muito bom. É o espaço vegan que mais frequento no Grande Porto. Muito bom tb para jantares de grupo. Recomendo mesmo muito.“

“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!“

“Porto Weekend 10/08/24: what a great bar! Lots of craft beer/craft ale choice, both on tap and bottles & cans in the fridge. Very friendly, knowledgeable service, which came with recommendations for an amber/red ale request. We had the Fermentage Brewery: Underrated Steps Czech amber lager 5%, Hoppy Road x Totenhopfen Brewery: Kharon Verbena red currant sour 6.4% and White Dog Brewery: chocolate imperial pastry stout 10.5%“

“The cod bolinho and the pork risol (croquettes) are highly recommended, quite large and filling. We also tried the puppy (little dog) and the tower of garlic prawns, with a very good sauce for dipping bread.
Evellin treated us with great kindness and sympathy, thank you very much for everything.“

“The food is amazing! The meat sandwich along with the fries was tremendous! The prices are not expensive at all. If you don't speak or understand much Portuguese, the waiters themselves translate the menu into Spanish and give you very good treatment. They all seemed super nice to me.
We have eaten inside and we have not been hot at all, on top of that they have it very well decorated and it is very pretty.
Highly recommended.“

“Morning train ride leaving Porto
1st place open run at 8:20 for the last meal
I had strawberry field and brunch salmon set.
Cafe latte and espresso with milk
The portions are huge and the brunch set especially goes well with a variety of ingredients.
Friendly and kind. It was great as our last meal in Porto.“

“This is such an amazing place! Firstly, the couple who runs it is absolutely professional, full of knowledge and so sweet. Then, the food and wine is absolutely delicious, local, authentic but feels very high class. We will come back for sure!“

“What a beautiful address! Careful decoration and furniture, both warm and sober, special mention for the covered terrace at the back. A perfect Brazilian soundtrack. Warm and attentive staff and welcome. And finally a cuisine that revisits classics with delicacy and freshness. The portions of the main dishes are VERY generous, and the final value for money is excellent. In short, enjoy!“

“Restaurant à faire absolute....
Le service et l'accueil sont vraiment à l'image du Portugal accueillant gentil et tellement bon

Restaurant to absolutely do....
The service and welcome are truly a reflection of Portugal, welcoming, kind and so good“

“This was such a great meal. The atmosphere is cool, welcoming and friendly. The service was impeccable, very knowledgeable and attentive. Then the food just made it incredible. Each dish was unique and flavorful. Fresh, beautiful and delicious meal.“

“I was there last week to visit the restaurant, I was amazed at the service
Meet the restaurant chef!
The food is spectacular!
(I will leave a small observation
The only thing missing is justice in the dishes
Increase the size of the prawns to be more visible on the plate, and the sirloin steak should be a little thicker)“

“It was a magical moment, honestly, the building is splendid, the same inside.

The cocktails enhance the charm of this bar because they are delicious.

The prices remain very affordable, honestly if you are staying in Porto go there.“

“Originally we went to Brasão Aliados, but we didn't have a reservation and it was full. However Brasão arranged for us to have a driver, Sérgio, to transport us to Brasão Antas. Sérgio was amazing, very friendly and attentive. We got a spot on the second-floor terrace, which was nice for a summer evening. We all had Francesinha which is a classic of Brasão, and I highly recommend. After our meal, Sérgio was ready to take us back to Aliados.
I can definitely recommend trying out Brasão (any of them) for a good meal with friends in a chill atmosphere.“

“This is an extremely tasty restaurant that is family run. Were here today for the second time during our stay in Porto and would have liked to come a third time if we had had time. Starters, main courses and desserts were all wonderfully delicious. Be sure to try the octopus salad, the meat skewer and the house cake! Service extremely friendly!⁸“

“Wonderfull evening to Barrica! Everything was perfect ❤️ The staff and the chef are just amazing, the food is beyond all expectations. It’s the best experience we had in Porto! If i could give more than 5 star i definitely would. ? recommend!“

“What a amazing place! Soon to receive a Michelin star!

Incredible team always with a smile on their face and happy to guide you on this amazing journey! It’s really a Gem and deserve all the spotlight at this beautiful city.

Thanks again to all of Gastro’s team. You guys are amazing!“

“The food is good, the seating and service is a bit problematic as it cannot meet the high demand and the high influx of people.

Vegetarian options: Plenty

Parking: 50 mt away

Kid-friendliness: Yes esp the tables outside

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes esp the tables outside“

“We stumbled upon this place by chance and are glad we did. The food is amazing, highly recommend the asparagus and mushrooms spears (meat-eaters will thoroughly enjoy this too), the tuna tartare and the beef cheek. The service was lovely and it was great to see the chef chatting to customers too. Add this to your list!“

“Small, simple, and wonderful !! We came for lunch and the place was packed and we were debating whether to wait or go, fortunately we waited! We had the dish of the day, saffron rice with peas carrots rice and topped with vegan chorizo sausage and a side salad. Followed with a vegan pastel de nada and coffees…excellent!!“

“We had a fantastic Portuguese tasting experience at Emotivo. The food was delicious! The concept is creative. With the open kitchen right next to the seating, the whole experience had an intimate feel to it - like chef Sara is cooking for you at her house.“

“100% recommended site. The treatment is super close and friendly. Great waitresses. They speak Spanish.

The food is great and the fish is obviously fresh. I recommend the grilled sardines.

Honestly, I would return without hesitation.“

“The experience at Antiqvvm was very good.
Perfect balance between product, flavor and innovation.
The service was attentive, they adapted the dishes to my dietary restrictions without any problem.
The restaurant is beautiful, both inside and on the terrace with wonderful views.
The price in line with the 2 Michelin stars it has.
Highly recommended visit.“

“Beautiful place with incredible views. The service was excellent. The francesinhas and craft beer are very good. The highlights, the potatoes with special sauce, an aioli that I have only eaten the same in a Tenerife guachinche and homemade potatoes, excellent. The place where we have eaten the best in the entire trip“

“Very good Frenchie.

Halfway through the coffee, a lady came out of nowhere, like a flash, asking who of the three had booked because they needed the table in 20 minutes (20!). We were just finishing and that's why we didn't like it. I couldn't resist and responded with the same level of delicacy. When we went to the checkout counter, I noticed comments and looks. It was a shame because we were really enjoying the atmosphere until then.

With the exception of the last 4 minutes, the experience was very good and the two young people who served us were super friendly.“

“Beautiful place in an alleyway on the stairs in Porto. Food was very good and the servers were very friendly. We did have to be active in catching the attention of the two waiters (more than we like to) but it was busy (at no time there was an empty table) and it was obvious that they were working as fast as they could. There was constantly a line of people waiting to be seated and this is no surprise as it is a very nice place to eat. If you are planning on visiting Porto I highly recommend eating here. Even if you have to wait for a couple of minutes to be seated.“

“4.4/5*

The francesinhas had a thick and tender sirloin steak inside, being cooked nicely rare. They also had the expected ham and chorizo, both being smokey, salty and fatty. The cheese on top was thick and bold in flavour, like an aged cheddar. These francesinhas differ from others as they possess thicker ingredients. They paired gorgeously with the iconic, rich, spicy-tomato, beer-port wine- francesinhas sauce, which was done in a dominant-tomato-savoury style. We don’t particularly prefer this version of the sauce over the usual tangy, more beer-port influenced sauces. The bread utilised in these francesinhas was fresh and circular with a slight crust and soft interior.

The prego sandwiches, too, utilised rare sirloin steaks which were generous in their thickness. The bread used was fluffy, soft and fresh. The sauce on the sandwich had a beautiful garlic-mustard flavour, which further accentuated the beautiful flavour in the rarity of the steak.

The bacalhau cappachio was amazing, fresh and full of salty yet fresh-cod flavour. Paired with parsley, onion and a very light vinegar, the delicate flavour of bacalhau was perfectly presented to the palate.

The wrapped Zucchini-smoked salmon and ricotta was a very unique entree. The smoked salmon took the lead with its beautifully fresh, melting and of course, Smokey taste. The soft zucchini wrapped around the piece, presented itself as a teaser for the softer and creamy ricotta on the interior.“

“Rafa is an absolute gem - he curates these tastings with so much passion and attention to detail that you'll be walking away with a newfound appreciation for wine (even IF you already very much appreciated wine before). He does an incredible job fostering a vibe that is both intimate and educational yet still very much unintimidating; by the end of the tasting, it feels like you're enjoying great wine/cheese with old friends at a small dinner party. If you're lucky enough to have an opportunity to snag some time with Rafa, don't even think twice and just book it! It'll be the highlight of your trip. And if it puts anything in perspective, I'm still texting Rafa about wines I'm enjoying in the States to this day ? He’s the best.“

“Small but very charming. It's for sandwiches and toast, they also have soups.
The sandwiches are not very big but correct. Very well prepared and very delicious products. The waitress spoke Spanish perfectly and helped us choose the food. Very attentive. You can only pay in cash, not by card. The beer is artisanal and very good.“

“A fantastic little restaurant. The food, despite being simple concepts, was full of flavor.
It can only become unpleasant if people at the next table are so unpleasant, because it is impossible not to hear them given the distance between the tables.“

“This family run business may look like a chain, but don't let their great marketing fool you! I was craving a good American style burger which can be hard to find outside the US. Thier menu had exactly what I was looking for! My burger was big and juicy and had great vegetables on it, exactly as I wished. They make the patties by hand. The crinkle cut fries are also an American favorite. Behind the counter and in the kitchen is a mom and son and others. It's so good and so well done I know they'll reach thier goal of opening other stores.“
