No matter what type of meal or atmosphere you’re craving, chances are Porto has a restaurant to match.

Porto is known as Portugal’s best food city, and location is the reason why. Fresh fish from the Atlantic, meats and produce from nearby farms, famous cheeses, and the Douro vineyards just a few miles away make it easy for restaurants to curate diverse menus full of local ingredients. Whether you’re looking for casual traditional dishes or modern interpretations, seafood with views or a cozy setting, there’s a restaurant for every type of meal in Porto.

On the Water: Bacalhau

Bacalhau sits right along the Douro River and, unsurprisingly, serves a wide array of bacalhau (cod). Cod chips, cod pate, grilled cod, fried cod, and more are served alongside salads, soups, and pasta. Because of its prime location on the water, Bacalhau can get very busy, so go in the late afternoon outside of peak hours to ensure you don’t have to wait long for a table.

For Fine-Dining Seafood: O Gaveto

O Gaveto sits about 0.2 miles from a fishing dock, so it’s no wonder the seafood tastes incredibly fresh. The restaurant has won numerous Portuguese food and restaurant awards for its fresh fillets, shrimp, and Bulhão Pato-style clams. If you don’t know what to order, you can’t go wrong with the seafood platter. The staff are well-versed in the extensive local wine list and will happily find a pairing for you. Inside, wooden tables and tiled walls pay homage to Porto’s past.
