Best places: Tapas restaurants in Porto, Portugal

Quaint, unfussy eatery with a local menu featuring tapas, seafood plates & desserts, plus wine.

👍👍 The restaurant is a, once again :), very small and very fine location. It has 5 tables and puts the emphasis on quality and customer service. The quality of the food was outstanding. The portions were large and are definitely sufficient. Here everything is still cooked and there are no frozen good...

👍👍 Absolutely divine - I can not rave about this place enough. Me and 2 friends shared the charcuterie board and honey Camembert walnut dish and it was delicious. The atmosphere, staff and food were all wonderful and especially welcoming . I would definitely recommend this place as a must for anyone vi...

Tapas & international cuisine served in a compact restaurant with a laid-back ambiance.

👍👍 Don’t expect typical seafood restaurant. It is a charming tapas place where they serve only food from local farmers and even though it’s a quite big space there is only about 10 tables which gives you a quite time. We had a cheese and ham board as a startes when the very helpful staff told us all a...

👍👍 Scrumptious food and tapas we have never heard of before, a well functioning and happy open kitchen, you can see the cooks are having fun with what they create. Airy and friendly space, great wine! A night to remember when you're visiting Porto, we'll definitely come back! I, J & O

👍 With so many choices around, it’s hard to be the best tapas restaurant in Porto, but this place is decent and relatively inexpensive. The food here is quite alright, nothing mind blowing. I liked the garlic shrimp the most. The calamari were a bit too salty to my taste, otherwise no problems. The re...

Bustling tapas restaurant with veggie options & live music until late, tucked in a backstreet.

😠 Really overhyped place. We were so excited to go here, but it proved extremely disappointing. Mediocre drinks, the vibe was awful (felt like a cheap hangout rather than a classy bar within an old chapel), super stuffy, and generally unpleasant/unclean. Music didn’t match the setting at all. The wait...

👍👍 This was the most bizarre experience (but in a good way)! The super friendly waiter recommended us a place next door to get francesinha instead of trying to keep us at their place. So we went to Gazela to get francesinha and came back for two beers and the steak sandwich with melted cheese that was...

Classy landmark with outdoor seats & an intimate ambiance, offering light bites plus wine & port.

👍👍 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!

👍👍 The best Garlic Prawn and Seafood rice in town. I have been hunting the best seafood in city and only this place met my expectations. Love to visit as much as possible in upcoming days.

👍 We enjoyed a very good meal covering seafood and meat dishes - bacalhau, wild boar, pigs cheeks, all accompanied by good wine and finished off with some fine port. Lovely evening, helped by some very good service.

👍👍 Nice and quiet environment with a nice staff too and high quality food. The Bacalhau a Portuguesa and Bolinho was amazing. Thank you for the service, I'll be back someday.

👍👍 Very cool place. Amazing service! Music was awesome! The food was okay-ish.

👍👍 Perfect place for a friends' party or a romantic dinner, inside our outside. Super good vibe, perfect service and delicious food and atmosphere. My place for spending time reading while having a tea or for a light meal, definitely. Highly recommended.

👍 Had a few beers and a good medium steak! Only the ambiente could be better!

👍👍 Fantastic restaurant, really friendly despite our lack of Portuguese. Some great local dishes and generally excellent food plus massive portions. Good wine too. Highly recommend!

👍 Vinhas d’Alho is a charming destination for those seeking a romantic setting and a pleasant atmosphere. While the menu offers a concise selection of delightful dishes, be prepared for a price range that is 25-50% higher compared to similar establishments.
