At Palacete Severo, a luxurious boutique hotel surrounded by gardens and reminiscent of an art gallery (its French owners are art dealers), the renowned chef Tiago Bonito undertakes his most personal project. The space includes a bar area where aperitifs are served before moving to the table, an elegant dining room adorned with fine contemporary works beneath a stunning coffered ceiling, and an additional room used for private dining. The proposal, distinctly gastronomic in nature, revolves around a tasting menu entitled Lés a Lés, from which guests may choose 9 or 14 moments from a list of di

If you feel like going on a high-flying culinary adventure, you will find a magnificent option here, as the luxurious The One Monumental Palace hotel provides the perfect setting. French chef Julien Montbabut, who already reached Michelin star status in Paris, rethinks his concept to take us on a grand culinary journey through Portugal’s various regions. He revisits each region’s classic recipes from his own perspective and lends a touch of modern cuisine and a deep respect for flavours to dishes based on native ingredients. The experience is presented in two versions: Grande viagem [“Grand Jo

There are places in the world that, simply by their location, exert a particular pull. Such is the case of Antiqvvm, set in a leafy park and a singular building beside the Museu Romântico, as well as a pleasant garden where you can enjoy a meal… with one of the most idyllic views over the Douro! In its elegant rooms, which combine classic and contemporary details with undeniable good taste, chef Vítor Matos champions creative cuisine with elegant dishes of “only apparent” simplicity that conceal an ode to the product (scarlet prawn, red mullet, caviar, sea bass, wagyu, black truffle…).

Set in a historic building but featuring a renovated contemporary interior, this welcoming restaurant stands out as a splendid option for a meal in the city centre, being just a few metres from the 19th-century Mercado Ferreira Borges.Award-winning chef Rui Paula (Casa de Chá da Boa Nova, in nearby Leça da Palmeira) has revamped this establishment’s concept in a more gastronomic direction, focusing solely on a tasting menu called "Não há futuro sem memória" (There’s No Future Without Memory) (available in 6, 10 or 14 courses). The first starters can be served at the bar at the entrance, and su

This is one of those places where you seek more than just a meal — you seek produce, flavour, technique... and a culinary experience that moves you; not surprisingly, they wanted to pay tribute to José Saramago’s famous work “Blindness” and build their ethos around three concepts that play with the senses: Feel, Touch and Provoke. This restaurant, inside the Torel Palace hotel, is overseen by Chef Vítor Matos and champion a cuisine guided by common sense, serious in presentation yet playful (some blind tastings are offered), with plating not devoid of a theatrical touch. The concept involves a

This establishment is run by Chef Luís Moreira and his partner, Ana Silveira, who recently left a small village to venture into urban life in Porto — and there is no doubt they have been warmly welcomed. They both aim to share their experiences in the different cities where they have lived, including Germany (hence the name of the restaurant, meaning “grandmother” in German). The chef offers a style of cooking that blends local produce with modern techniques, imparting a personal flair. Here, a journey of flavours is guaranteed, beginning with Asia (a destination the chef hopes to explore) via

Everyone knows that the city of Porto has a timeless, almost magical charm; what not everyone knows is that one of the best places to take it all in is on the riverside in Vila Nova de Gaia, on the opposite bank of the Douro. Housed in the luxurious Yeatman hotel and its namesake restaurant, Chef Ricardo Costa presents a creative offering that, via a single, ever-evolving tasting menu (kicking off with appetisers in both the bar area and the kitchen), rests on two pillars: the exaltation of traditional Portuguese gastronomy (the 2021 suckling pig dish stands out) and the use of top-quality sea

Just a few metres from Estádio do Dragão, chef Ricardo Dias Ferreira leans into ancestral cooking where... fire is the star of the show! Here, almost everything is prepared over fire and in the wood-fired oven (embers and low-temperature cooking also play an important role), giving the dishes a very distinctive flavour. With a minimalist feel and a U-shaped table-counter that houses the kitchen within it, the restaurant breathes an industrial air while also incorporating an elegantly decorated dining room. We recommend taking a seat at the counter to watch the entire preparation process and br
