Sander van Oosterhout

Veal risotto and steak , both very very delicious! I spend €80 on a 2 person dinner ; mains and desserts , bottle of wine and port to finish. Great service, really top notch!

Peter T

We arrived fairly early and the place was full, unfortunately we had not booked . But they found space round the bar . Fantastic food and highly recommended the restaurant !

Shelby Woow

Codfish nuggets, Veal Risotto & Scallops risotto with a great Green Wine ! The service was good! Make a reservation before going there! They accept American Express!

Best experience in Porto. The tuna and salmon as apprtizers were mind blowing. Also the beef risotto and hazelnut ! Aagghhh so good. I also loved the service guy, he was funny and very helpful!

Paulo Costa

A charged couvert (bread , black olive oils , truffle butter and tomato sauce ) that worth the try. I’ve ordered Veal Risotto and couldn’t be any happier - such magnificent recipe that was brought to me!

Sofia Galego

Food is ok! Service is polite and kind! But defenetly not one of the best restaurants in town ! Salada de fruta com Espuma de Mojito is a MUST!!!

Victoria

The best place to have dinner in Porto ! The lemon / basil / gin cocktail was wonderful as the tapas ! I highly recommend the fried cod , the tuna and the eggs !

Jakob Hedegaard

Enjoyed the scallops and poultry livers , great starters. Would skip the main and go with three starters next. The hazelnut desert had good flavors, but lacked any texture. Amazing service.

Gordana Visser

WoW this is amazing. Please try the risotto . And don't miss the desserts .

Rick Veldhuis

Probably the best restaurant in Porto. And affordable too..! Be sure to try the cod with exploding olives ! Wait... what..? Yes, exploding olives . Fruit salad with mojito foam is also extraordinary!

Adam Ross

This whole experiences was incredible. The truffle butter to start was a simple highlight for me. We were also blown away by the tempura green beans and the confit tuna . The service was exceptional.

Theofilos Kemp

Amazing Portuguese food , lovely staff , beautiful atmosphere! Really good value for money , enjoyed every second of this experience! I would suggest for everyone to visit Cantinho do Avillez!!!

Doris Solomonova

Fantastic atmosphere! The food is excellent! You must try the hazelnut desert and the prawns with white wine , marinated scallops ????

jenni tapanila

we were first turned off by the high-ish prices (starters 7-10e, mains 17-20e), but the quality of everything made it very worthwhile. great wine and food as well as pro service :)

Lauren Rigter

Amazing! Service and food! Definitely try: scallops with avocado mousse (will blow your mind) and the cod . Steak is ok, nothing special, but be sure to save some space for the Hazelnut !

Susanna R

This place is definitely the heaven in Porto. Recommend trying risotto with grilled scallops . Everything else is amazing as well .

Sambuka

The bread service. Very good. The tomato sauce I loved. Partner said the olives were spectacular. (I the olives , but I get people like them.)

Evi Claeys

Absolutely loved this place! Great food and service. The scallops risotto and hazelnut dessert were de-li-cious! Don't forget to make a reservation ;-)

Elif

Very nice lunch menu , service was great, wine is good. Go with the Cod . Starters were also nice. Highly recommended.

Elaine Yip

The octopus was amazing, as was the Brazilian seafood stew...the hazelnut dessert , maybe not life changing as they claim, but quite close...

Samuel Burke

Superb modern Portuguese food with an added touch of flavor and dishes with an international twist. The restaurant bares the name of its well-known Portuguese chef Jose Avillez.

Sambuka

The green beans and the starter prawns ... they were both delicious. Although as you can see: in minimum amounts. Starters they are.

Dudás Csárdás

The food was excellent, and Mariana was a very kind and efficient host. Her tips were very good and accurate. She knew the menu well . Highly recommended!

MJ Snijders

Great place to eat. Locals eat here too so that is a good sign. They have several restaurants throughout Portugal. Food is traditional yet exciting.

Meltem Oktareskara

Scallops with avocado great!! People are so welcoming, you have to try veal risotto ❤❤

ekim cakmak

Starter as beans was very good. Service was awesome. Dont go without reservation .octopus was wierdly good????

Stephen Garrett

Excellent food and a nice restaurant . Veal risotto very good. Had to remind staff several times of drinks and side orders that hadn’t been completed.

Martin Mignot

Everything is amazing : risotto , cod nuggets, truffle butter ... But The Hazelnut dessert is the final touch - don't leave without trying it, it's extraordinary.

Sambuka

The roasted octopus was very good. It’s bigger. This is just half a plate (I split it with my partner).

Kate Se

Memorable experience: awesome food and great service. The veal risotto is a must! I'm so coming back to the place again!

Monica Desai

A bit easier to get into than the one in Lisbon, but just as good! Do not miss the professor's eggs and the hazelnut cubed.

Lee Tai

The cod is over cooked & tasteless. The grilled octopus is pretty good though. Forget about the hazelnut dessert , it’s too sweet. However the cocktail MX ginger is excellent, credit to the bartender !

Mariana Cervantes

Excellent food,service, and environment. The octopus and scallops were amazing. This is the best restaurant of Porto by far!

Brie Scolaro

Truffle butter , mushroom risotto and scallops and roasted octopus to die for!!!

Ondrej Sedlacek

You go in expecting to be blown away and while it’s very good, it’s not impressive. Very far from the Michelin levels that the place aspires to. Overall a little disappointing 8.9/10.

Brenda Ciuk

Great Portuguese food in Porto! A mix of traditional and contemporary Portuguese food !

Cait Weingartner

Incredible meal from start to finish. Don’t miss the marinated scallops , veal risotto and hazelnut dessert .

Cannot miss the fried green beans ! The scallop risotto was good too

Anthony Dodd

Best restaurant in Porto, amazing seafood and delicious craft beer !

Mine Mavi Arikan

Tuna wrap and cod fish are great! Don't leave without tasting the avela (hazelnut )..

jenni tapanila

pre-food nibbles are awesome (fresh bread with truffel butter, sauce etc). great green wine .

kate k

Tequila , ginger , lime and rosemary cocktail is excellent (photo doesn't do it justice)

S.T

overrated and overpriced! The prawn appetiser was warm, the scallop appetiser was such a small portion, i got a warm beef steak for my main course and the best dishes of the night is the octopus .

Toon Den Roover

Veal risotto and scalops risotto were great! Super!

Muriel Veenstra

Must try the gin cocktail ; Paris St. Germain!! Best ive ever had.

M. Orçun Şahin

Definitely loved it. Escalops, risotto , veal , panna cotta , hazelnuts ; tried all, loved all

Bear Liu

Try the tomato cheese salad (with some cinnamon in it, it’s really good!) and hazelnut dessert

Natalia G

Food and wine were amazing! Service great. Get traditional Portuguese dishes from the menu.

Excellent, a little bit expensive, but very good. Impossible to visit Porto without to know Magestic Café. I suggest the rabanada or scones with porto wine Tawny. - Fabrício Motteran
