The grilled veal cutlet was so rare my husband had trouble cutting it. 4. The hot dog tasted terrible too and came with a slice of ham and was pressed like a panini. 5. The fries were soggy. 6. The rice tasted like reconstituted rice. 7. The ambience was like a cafeteria. The best part of the restaurant was the waiter, who was very nice and took the veal off the bill.

We ordered the Monkfish Rice with Prawns (Arroz de tambori com gambas) and the Cod with Potatoes. The monkfish with rice was a half order and that was enough for 2 people. It was delicious and was a cross between jambalaya and arborio. They served us a HUGE piece of cod and we couldn't finish it. In retrospect, we should have just ordered the Monkfish Rice with Prawns and the house salad. This was a great dining experience and will go back if I happen to be in Porto in the future.

Friends recommended this place and advised us to make a reservation. We did and it was a good choice, because at 1:00 the place was getting full. There is lots of food to choos from. English style breakfast, lots of different types of bread and lots of desert. Typical Portuguese food like codfish, natas and croissant brioche. The desserts were amazing and the table was filled with amazing stuff. Pancakes, waffles, muffins, cake, pie, fruit, jello and lots of different pasteries. You get one drink (orange juice, coke, wine or beer) and the water is for free. The service was excellent. Our waiter made sure we had everything we needed. Plates are removed in time and water is filled up once it is halfway. Another big plus is the personal approach and it is easy to get a waiter over to order a drink or to pay the bill. Will come back for sure!

Nice location, yet unusual buffet set up. Eggs scrambled and left out to get cold, although they…read morehad plenty of warming bins. I was excited to see mushrooms, but they had an odd flavor, like they had been soaked in something like a sweet sauce. Otherwise, a mixture of typical fare (donuts, bread, cereal, bacalau, leaf lettuce and tomatoes, pasta, etc.). I would not agree that this has 'everything one can imagine...seems run-of-the-mill. AFTER we sat down and ate, I ordered coffee, only to get cold coffee. I ordered another small coffee, and staff was sent out to tell me I only could have one hot drink and one cold drink. Strange, as I ordered water and never got it. My partner got one third of a glass of tap water, even though we asked twice for mineral water and got no hot drink. A drink limit is not listed anywhere, nor are the prices posted. We had to agree to pay extra on to get another COLD cup of coffee that sat in a decanter for hours. Would rate as 2.5 stars, though I cannot leave an in-between rating. Perhaps offerings are better for dinner. Service seemed more focused on figuring out how to charge an extra euro and limit beverages (like water or HOT coffee) than providing accurate service. No one noticed that I never got any water, for instance.

We ordered olives (1€), cod fish parcels (4€), green salad (4€), octopus (9€) and some water (1€). Everything came quite fast to our table. As you can see from the pictures, all Tapas were decorated very nicely on the plates. However, the portions were VERY TINY, especially for its price. Unfortunately, our salad had a bug crawling within the lettuce leaves, so we stopped eating it. Besides that, the Tapas were tasting pretty good. Overall, we can conclude our visit as follows: * nice and cozy restaurant very close to the Douro * interesting and modern menu offering * very nice interior!! * tidy tables and friendly waiters * no long waits * unfortunately tiny portions for their prices * a beetle experience :( * highly frequented during dinner time Maybe we come back another time, but the experience was not "outstanding", as in other places close by...
