    This place is well known for Francesinhas. They are really good. They also offer half for those who cannot eat the whole because it’s so huge. I took half too. If you go in the evening, you will get to see a nice view of the sunset. It’s amazing!!

    What a lovely restaurant. We made a reservation ahead of time via email, they were kind enough to accommodate and also provided a highchair for our toddler. We had to try their famous francesinha with egg and their oven fried rice with octopus, both were delicious. Loved being next to the ocean, beautiful view.

    Overall a great experience on the shore of the ocean, great views, friendly staff and good food. The service was very fast even though the restaurant was almost full. The prices are reasonable.

    I love the atmosphere of this place. We came in on Sunday afternoon. The hostess in the front was very friendly and accommodating. We were able to sit on their patio with our little dog. The view is incredible and the music was good enough (not too loud). I was able to enjoy our food and have conversations at the same time. The service was great. The rose sangria was great. The francesinha was okay, it’s good, but not amazing, some of the meat pieces was a little tough. The sauce was delicious! I love that it has some spice in it! My husband had the vegetarian francesinha - which was delicious. I’d recommend this place if you ever want to enjoy good food by the ocean.

    Awesome place!! With the same quality of the other Brasão restaurants. Food was just perfect as usually but the place itself and the views are gorgeous. Plus the staff is very helpful and kind. Big thanks to Tamara and Raquel for the great service. I highly recommend this place, even if you have been at others Brasão, take a look at this one as well, it’s worth it.

    Vegetarian snacks are tasty. Portions are small though. We thought to share if we ordered many, but had to order more. The onion was very interesting and delicious. They did not do shaken Margarita's but they did make me a really good Caparinya cocktail. Price is $$$ (3/5), but the vibe, beech restaurant, sunset view makes it worth it. We loved it. Make sure to book a table before you get there. It fills up very quickly. Uber was tough, we waited for 30 minutes. Not easily accessible with public transport. Best if you have a car. The beech during the day is the best in Porto for me soo far.

    Had a great evening at Brasão Salgueiros. We were seated on the terrasse with a view of the water. The steak with mushrooms that I ordered was amazing and dessert was light and airy. Thank you to our waiter Tiago for your service.

    The best place to eat, chill and drink at Praia de Salgueiros in Gaia / Porto! Great view, great service (Thank you Pedro and Gabriel) and delicious food! Highly recommend it!

    This seaside restaurant has a cozy atmosphere that immediately drew me in when I stepped inside. The warm decor creates a relaxing vibe. The food was delicious; my friends and I enjoyed their signature steak with fresh potato chips and a refreshing tomato salad as starters. The flavors were amazing, and the lemon tart for dessert was a delightful surprise. I also have to mention the excellent service. Tiago and Tomé, the restaurant staff, were friendly and attentive, ensuring our needs were met throughout the meal. Their warm smiles and genuine care truly made our dining experience unforgettable. This is definitely a restaurant worth revisiting.

    Beautiful location, any time of the day (dinner - sunset, my favourite) Food most known by Francesinha which is quite good there but a lot more offer besides that one. Service - really kind, NOT so bothering with 'everything is good?' They actually let you eat 👌

    Amazing 👏 I went at Brasao Salgueiros at night, This is my 2d meal at this restaurant. The francesinha was tasty and delicious 😋 We were 8 people so when we arrived, some crisps with sauce have been offered by the restaurant. M However, make sure to book in advance !

    Very beautiful restaurant and nice staff. The fried onion tasted good, and so did the Pica-Pau de legumes (the vegetarian option). The regular Pica-Pau tasted good but the meat was a bit tough.

  • 2/5 Stephen H. 11 months ago on Google
    A wonderful place if you enjoy having to beg to be served. Took nearly half an hour from being seated to be asked whether we wanted drinks and were ready to order. Restaurant not particularly busy. Food reasonably priced and nice location. Perhaps we had a bad experience?

  • 5/5 Ben G. 7 months ago on Google
    We had the Francesinha and it was delicious. Cool place, cool music, but it was the staff that really made it amazing. Thanks Diego and John for the great service! We had a wonderful evening because of you guys.

  • 5/5 Christian R. 1 year ago on Google
    The ideal place to have a meal after a walk on the of the ocean beach. The view is amazing. The decor of the restaurant is very nice. We only had some appetizers and fruits, they were tasty. The staff was very friendly, thank you Marta for the service.

  • 5/5 Sim L. 1 year ago on Google
    Really cute restaurant, lovely interiors. The food was great and the wine was delicious! Really cute setting, beach front we went quite late on so didn’t get to enjoy the stunning views! Overall can’t fault it, laid back atmosphere and Micarla was a fabulous host!

  • 4/5 Axel Bryngelsson R. 1 year ago on Google
    The service was impeccable with differing needs being met and the staff being very nice about it all. The portugese are extremely nice and accommodating as is, and here it was no different. We sat outside but I'd recommend the inside for its beautiful interior design. The food was good! Especially the francesinha, which was heavy and favourful, yet delicate where it had to be. However the octopus for two with rice was a bit too crammed with rice while its main attraction, the octopus, was scarce in comparison. The taste became uniform and far too rich as you had nothing to pair the rice with eventually. I'd recommend their white wine sangria which was fresh and light, a better alternative than the more subtle, dry rosė sangria. One must of course pair that with a super bock, which was served at .5L in a heavy ceramic cup, a beatiful, earthy touch which accompanied the rest of the design elements

    Casual spot on the water. Really enjoyed the octopus rice. We made a reservation online so we could make sure to have a table to enjoy the sunset. Never felt rushed. Definitely a great spot if you want a nice meal on the water.

  • 4/5 Elena A. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice experience, friendly personal, great view. Karina was in charge at our table and she did a great job, always paying attention. (thank you!👍)I would recommend the steak for two, although a bit pricey and the side dishes coming with it are not for 2, especially the salad.

  • 5/5 Olena K. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious freshly made food and good portions! Portugese style steak was insane! Strawberry ice cream bowl made us happy for 150% as it was made of natural strawberries! The service is the best from what me met so far in Portugal, thankfully to Hiago and Tiago. Highly recommended 👌🏻

    If know like other Brasão restaurants this one won't disappoint. Situated next to the beach both the interior and exterior table provide a great ambience and view over the ocean. The waiter were super welcoming and always available to help. We even got to try out the mystery beer before ordering. Food as usual was very week prepared and presented. Definitely an experience to repeat!

👍👍 Delicious food, live music. Here you can see how the dish is prepared. The interior is decorated in red. €15 per set in the photo. The price is a little high for me, but I'm glad I visited this place. They give you a glass and a board. It wasn't crowded. I enjoyed this place!
