We are in Porto for the first time and found this gem by accident. The food was soooo delicious…read more The small entrance with the rotisserie chickens roasting over coals right inside the doorway. Upstairs has three rooms for seating. The wait was about 15 mins but you knew it would be worth the wait because those in line were locals! We enjoyed the chicken fried rice salad and drinks. I had no trouble being served gluten free. We decided to go back today and try a different dish but the place was closed with a sign saying go across the street for chicken. ‍. Perhaps we will try one more time before heading home

We followed the lead from Instagram viral posts for PERI- Peri chicken…read more The place is small and has lines obviously because of the IG posts. Super hot inside. So the told us that across the street there is absolutely the same chicken but with no crowds . So we went. Big disappointment. The chicken was nothing special at all. I expected very juicy and tender chicken , with delicious Peri-Peri sauce. Well the chicken was very mediocre, not juicy and the sauce reminded F1 American sauce. Not tasty at all.

This was my favorite meal on the whole trip I took to Lisbon, Porto, the Duoro Valley, and Braga,…read morePortugal. We ate at Papas Zaide on a Sunday, and the owner cooked a meal for three very difficult guests - two vegetarians and someone who was allergic to dairy and eggs. She created a basic stew over rice with pseudo-chicken for us vegetarians and made sure all the appetizers were edible by all - including a pseudo olive loaf, along with delicious bread, olives, oranges, and salad, accompanied by honey and olive oil. For the meat eaters, the traditional meal of fall-off-the-bone pork and potatoes hit the spot. The white and red table wine from small, local Duoro Valley wineries was some of the best we had on the whole tour, topped with a moscato for dessert. Our hostess even made a special dessert with no eggs - a kind of trifle with non-egg custard, fruit, jello, and biscuits that was delicious. Highly recommend for down-to-earth home cooking with a very accommodating hostess.

Cada prato transmite tradição e carinho, deixando-nos com a sensação de estar a comer em casa de família. O atendimento foi caloroso e descontraído, típico do espírito portuense: direto, simpático e cheio de boa disposição. Sentimo-nos verdadeiramente em casa, acolhidos como se fôssemos clientes de longa data. Um espaço onde não só se come bem, como também se vive um bocadinho da alma do Porto. Sem dúvida, um restaurante a recomendar e a voltar sempre que a saudade da comida caseira apertar.

You see these all over Portugal in the traditional cafes/cafeterias, but the ones here rise above. Light, crispy crunch with a just-right chewy dough, and then a tasty meat filling. And not one, but two vegetarian options! They also serve beer, coffee, wine, and even popsicles. That said, it's a small spot with only four barstools and one thin bench. Plus four two-seaters outside when weather permits. Try the sardine rissol. I think it's unique and something that's harder to get elsewhere. Service was polite and efficient. Spoke English well. Bathrooms: Didn't see any.
