WINE CLUB RESTAURANTE

Restaurant

👍👍 We have been in Porto for 4 days, and I can confidently say the WINE CLUB’s food was the best traditional Portuguese food we have had throughout the whole trip! The restaurant is run by a family - the wife cooks everything and the husband serves. They are very friendly and genuine people! The tapas...

Casarão do Castelo

Restaurant

👍👍 This is one of Leca's greatest restaurants. If you think it looks good, one trip to the bathroom will show you how much thought was put into the whole place. Great food, great service!

Casa Victória

Traditional restaurant

👍👍 This is a great place. The owner is very friendly, the food is excellent, the price very reasonable. And it's a 3 min walk from the station. I strongly reccomend. I had the special of the day, which was roast pork, rice and potatoes - delicious.

Restaurante O Alves

Traditional restaurant

😠 When you come to this restaurant there are plates with appetizers already on the table. They look like free compliment (olives, bread, cheese…). Nobody told that they will be charged. So, at the end you receive a bill with around 30 euro extra for these small dishes. I feel like I was cheated becaus...

Restaurante Zizi

Portuguese restaurant

👍👍 We were SO lucky to have been able to secure a table outside without a reservation, but I'd highly recommend calling for a reservation a day in advance to be safe. The dining experience was fantastic. The food was very special, beautifully prepared, and charmingly presented. Our servers were particu...

Estrela do Lima

Traditional restaurant

👍👍 Well-prepared homemade cuisine in a pleasant ambiance and with very good treatment. It is true that the dish was somewhat oily, but I enjoyed it a lot and that makes me feel bad when I reject exquisite fried food from my mother. I was looking forward to trying a dessert.

Restaurante Gondarem Baixa

Restaurant

👍👍 Really nice place and people with wonderful food. The smoked pulled pork was an excellent experience. That was the best food I had in Porto.

Cantinho do Jarbas

Restaurant

👍👍 My favorite place to eat a real burger. All visits are fantastic, due to Pedro's joy and good disposition, the super delicious food or even the sangria that leaves us happy after 2 glasses. Never forget the xiripiti at the end. If you ever really want to eat francesinha or a burger, this is where yo...

Bufete Fase

Fast food restaurant

👍 The Francesinha was very good. They have two kind of sauce, spicy or original. It felt more like a local snack-bar than a restaurant. Also free extra sauce, because you'll need it!

A Cozinha do Manel

Traditional restaurant

👍👍 I know they are super popular so my husband and I showed up 10 minutes before they opened without a reservation. I loved that a smiling host waved us in even though they were not open quite yet. The cheery service continued. They seem to serve a lot of traditional dishes but all exceptionally prepar...

Líder

Restaurant

👍👍 One of the best surprises I had in Porto for meals. Excelent local/national dishes and traditional good service to match. It was a bit complicated to reach the location with out car but there was plenty of parking nearby if you just wanna leave the car close and walk there. Definitly worth it!

Casa Agrícola

Bar

😠 Super expensive for no reason Everything was very expensive and the quality was below average. We ordered mozzarella salad with tomatoes and the portion was barely an appetizer’s size. We also took the mixed salad, where the lettuce was not even cut. For the main dishes we ordered steaks they wer...

Solar Moinho de Vento

👍👍 On a recommendation I took an early (for Porto) dinner here and was not disappointed. The Boiled pot Pork ribs with blood sausage was fantastic and the service was excellent. I also really enjoyed the almond tart dessert. Fantastic!
