Sophisticated destination specializing in meat dishes & wine, plus seafood & vegan options.

👍👍 🌟 Tao's Google Restaurant Reviews 🌟 I found this place on Google Maps, a new brunch restaurants in a very beautiful neighborhood in Porto. It opened roughly in July 2023. Upon entering in the morning, the Ambiance was very nice, atmosphere was very cozy and excellent for a chill morning breakfast...

👍👍 The service was absolutely outstanding and the food was the best brunch one could wish for. We could tell that the owner takes pride in his work and his cafe. This brunch place cannot be beat for the value it offers and it being constantly busy is a testimony to that. Prepare to wait for a bit befo...

👍👍 Fabulous toast “royal” and the sweet cheese pancakes were really nice, too. Friendly staff, good service. Will come back for sure Edit: was there for a second time & my first impression was more than confirmed! After having tried numerous Brunch spots in the area over the last couple of days, I mus...

👍👍 Castro, hands down, makes the best nata I had in Portugal! I love the crispy dough, with the most smooth-textured tasty custard. I couldn’t have enough of these pastel de natas. They also serve very good coffee!

👍👍 This cafe is right in the heart of the city. Serving generous portions of breakfast and brunch with great flavors and beautiful plates. My husband said the chicken salad was "the best salad he has ever had" I had the veggie toast which was huge and delicious. Hot wine was perfect on the chilly morni...

👍👍 What a wonderful place to come to for my first meal in Porto. Carlos is the owner, chef, barman, and barista of this restaurant that he named after his grandmother. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but i highly recommend the poultry sausage tosta. Quality is a good word to describe the...

👍👍 The flat white was delicious and the salmon brunch very tasty, but the syrnyky stole the show. It had a perfect balance of flavors and textures, sweetness and tartness. The place was quite busy Saturday morning but ran efficiently and well, so the wait for a table wasn’t long. Recommend!!

😐 (!) Caution advised if you have allergies. The pros: High rating deserved for the natas, they are very good. The quality of the food overall was also great (e.g. fresh salads and smoked salmon). We arrived in a big group and the owner/manager was very kind in accommodating us and rearranging chai...

🫤 I didn’t have a good experience here. I tried to order from the cashier directly, but as I was going to sit inside the restaurant, they wanted me to order from the waiter, though they had no line. I waited over 10 minutes as they only had one waiter around 9:30am this morning and was waiting on othe...

👍 I was disappointed to learn they are no longer open for breakfast so the Turkish eggs that are so highly reviewed are no longer available. We ordered the rigatoni and creamy rice. Both were good but not extremely noteworthy. If we was a nice touch of herbs in the creamy rice but too much mushroom.

👍👍 This place is my favorite for brunch in the whole Porto. The food is delicious and the presеntarion is eye catching. Service is 5 start, the owners and the staff are going beyond to accommodate the clients in every aspect. Portions are huge but don’t worry they are so good that you’ll find a room. W...

👍👍 Lovely place for breakfast. Amazing and friendly staff. Speak English, so it’s easy for communication. Healthy food and great quality products. Food is great and smoothies….they are gorgeous!

👍👍 One of the only places in the city that has American-style pourover, and they even have it iced! It is served in a V60 with ice, it's so good. Ask for the iced filter coffee if you want to try it, a truly refreshing drink on a warm summer day. They also have regular cold brew if that's more your sty...

👍👍 Delicious vegan international food! Highly recommended. Enjoyed the bowls after sharing the hummus plate. I found the falafel very crispy and tasty. Nice combos of flavor. Didn’t try the drinks but menu looked enticing - would certainly come back for more!

👍👍 The owner is very kind, speaks excellent English and they still had the breakfast option for us at noon. The coffee is in one word amazing, the orange juice brings one back from the dead, and the toasts are out of this world. The coffee cups are made from recycled coffee beans, which is an excellent...

👍👍 OUTSTANDING!!! This 100% Gluten Free restaurant offers healthy delicious meals that are exceptional. Anyone visiting Porto looking for GF options needs to make their way here, walk, Uber, taxi, it is without question worth the effort. The staff are super friendly, John was so helpful, the talente...

👍👍 Superb vegetarian restaurant experience! Worm and welcoming restaurant and service. Chefe and staff are engaging and fun to talk. Amazing food with rich and balanced tastes and textures.

👍👍 As a Vietnamese living in Portugal for almost a decade, I'm super happy to finally find this lovely restaurant in the heart of Porto, which offers 100% authentic taste from my own country of Vietnam. Beyond the great food, I was also impressed by the cosy and beautiful decor and most of all, the fr...

👍👍 This place is as love at first sight. Clean. Delicious. Cozy. And so so friendly. I didn’t know that syrniki is possible to cook without flour and with such a smooth nice texture. And finally there are some cool specialty coffee in this neighborhood. I really like attention to the details and the o...
