An experience not to be repeated: "flat" and lukewarm beer, tough and tasteless meat, cold fries. It seemed like they were doing us a big favor when we asked for more fries. The salad was served with lettuce leaves that were already a bit wilted and completely tasteless. Upon leaving, the pile of leftovers and dirty dishes on the counter also didn't leave a good impression. All of this for about 25 euros per person.

100% Portuguese tavern where you can enjoy a "Prato do dia" which consists of a main dish accompanied by potatoes and rice. Don't expect anything glamorous or super clean, but authentic if you do. As decoration, it has dozens of Portuguese football team pennants. The dishes vary daily but there is usually hake, pork rinds, pork chop, sausages... It's recommended to order a carafe of the house's green wine, it's very good. Very economical, less than €10 per person including drinks.

Boémia Café is a restaurant located at the beginning of Avenida de França, right next to Praça de Mouzinho de Albuquerque, commonly known as Rotunda da Boavista. The space has a Confectionery, Pastry Shop, Bakery, Snack Bar, and Restaurant, distributed throughout an indoor area and a terrace. A pleasant, modern, airy, clean space, with beautiful decoration, excellent location, informal, casual, friendly, and very welcoming. It has its own production of all types of pastries and cakes, with an emphasis on its magnificent assorted croissants. An ideal place for a light and healthy meal, at any time of the day, with very good preparation, great quality, and lots of flavor. Serves daily specials. Good value for money/quality/service. Good service, great availability, and a lot of friendliness from all the staff. I highly recommend it.

A real horror show. The lack of space management during dinner was obvious. Although the receptionist was friendly and cordial from the beginning, it was possible to see that the team was unmotivated and overloaded. During the service, we heard discussions between the staff, and none of the served dishes were explained. The gentleman who seemed to be the chief of the room just said his name at the end of the dinner to ask for a positive assessment of the space. The dust was dirty and spicy. It is worth noting that the cocktail menu was not available due to the large flow of customers, which is understandable. We chose the place because we believed it would have the same welcoming atmosphere and decent service the last time I was here, about two years ago, but unfortunately the experience was the opposite.

Dear. Food without flavor and cooked without art. Savings on the base ingredients of dishes. Room and bathrooms look decadent and dirty. A disappointment.

10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Exceptional quality price, and wonderful treatment. It is good to be attended to as soon as you enter, they accompany you to the table, they are waiting for all the Service and if possible they accompany you and send you to the door. It is to feel like a luxury restaurant but at an affordable price, so much so that you repeat without hesitation. Also you can see the kitchen that is open and that, in my opinion is a good sign, especially when you go in and there are no smells which means it is clean and well ventilated. It is advisable to go hungry because they put a lot of food.

A beautiful evening out with our family of 4. Fresh grilled whole fish prepared perfectly, so clean and tasty. We highly recommend this place for food and service. In fact we might return this evening if there is space - make reservation ahead of time, this place gets busy.

The place is very pleasant but the service is terrible!!! When we sat down, the floor around the table was dirty and it took a long time for us to be attended to. When they finally came to our table, they were unfriendly and it took about 40 minutes to bring the order, a bottle of natural water, a Pedras sparkling water and a lemon balm tea! 😡 I asked for ice for the water and I noticed that the lady serving was leaving the food waiting for a long time. I do not recommend this place at all, but, however, I recognize that it seems like a great place to study. I did not try the terrace but it did not look good and was very cold, besides being very noisy.

Everyone working here is kind. They didn't just give us the menu, but explained each item one by one. While cleaning up the table, they treated us kindly with warm smiles. It was a place to eat with pasta, and we ordered bruschetta, sausage, and salad. We ordered chicken gizzards after seeing Google reviews. It was delicious and warm, so we were very satisfied. They even made small talk while we were paying. It was impressive that they deliberately tried to learn and use Korean expressions.

What a sadness to see what became of this restaurant I loved. I booked it for a birthday, thinking I would find the quality and atmosphere that made his reputation... but the evening turned into a fiasco. When we arrived, the table was not even ready. The tablecloth was dirty, which is unacceptable for an establishment that wants a serious minimum. The service is now disorganized, impersonal and clearly below what was previously proposed. The decoration remained the same, as if nothing had changed, but it is misleading: everything else collapsed. The cards are now made of low-end plastic, with about twenty dishes written in English, which gives the impression of a tourist factory without soul or identity. We were so shocked by the general deterioration that we preferred to get up and leave without even ordering. A first for us, and yet we frequented this restaurant for years. It’s a total waste. The old kitchen was exceptional, full of taste and character. Today, there remains only an empty shell that lives on its past reputation. Very sincerely: to flee. I am sickened to have lost one of my favorite restaurants.

Porto Top Accommodation on the river we got two rooms one in a building facing the Douro river, just on the docks you walk for sure once in Oporto. Stunning view on Gaia (the area in front of the old centre of the town, where the porto caves are located...try a porto tasting!!), the river, the lights, boats from two big windows (second rooms, for the kids, was facing inside but same furnitures, very nice). furnitures (both rom and bathroom were new), wi-fi perfectly working. The manager is a really kind and helpful man. When we walked through Oport we constantly said that was the best part to sleep. ah, important note, we had no troubles for the noise during the night..
