Service

The environment was really nice, and the people were very kind and prestative. Food was tasty and the presentation was also good.

Amazing food and even better service! great atmosphere and a beautiful setting. truly an amazing experience, we will be coming back!

Date day lunch spot. First of all, the location is fantastic. Service was amazing from the beginning till the end. The menu had many items to choose from. We shared the Vitelo and a fantastic bottle of wine. Chef Filipe &amp; Francisco were informative &amp; friendly. We can&rsquo;t wait to dine again.

Service was amazing. The waiter told us to take a look at the steaks we ordered (tomahawk and dry aged chuleton) as they were cooking it and to take pictures. The food was also cooked to a nice medium rare.

I always love to come to Esta&ccedil;&atilde;o when I come back to Porto to visit family. The ambience and the food are always amazing. Today they didn&rsquo;t have the wellington beef available or the banoffee pie which for me were incredible. I hope when I come back next time they have it.

The staff was super nice speaking Spanish to us and explaining us the dishes.The place is very nice and we enjoyed the food as well.

Amazing food, amazing flavours. We were both so impressed by the food here. The selection on offer was so impressive and each dish was as delicious as the last. Don&#39;t miss out, you must visit here, we can&#39;t wait to return!

The Il Fiume from Real, Braga has this cozy, rustic and romantic setting and atmosphere which invites you for a relaxing meal and to spend a good time. The service is very kind, and the food is amazing, with good variety, vegan options and a decent price point. We go often and love it every time. There is free parking nearby and accessibility options to reach the restaurant.

Our first visit back in the new year, and we still love this place.  The cozy setting and atmosphere, the friendly and enthusiastic owner and staff, and good food always make dinner an enjoyable event!

I had a fantastic experience enjoying delicious Italian cuisine. The staff was exceptionally accommodating, ensuring that any ingredients were adjusted to meet Muslim dietary requirements.

Thank you very much for the two wonderful meals in your restaurant. We became aware of Norma through the Michelin guide. A first visit for lunch offered us aromatic, very fresh and imaginative dishes in a wonderful ambience. The flavors and ideas of the recipes and the concept of Norma inspired us.We were so impressed that we tried the large tasting menu again two days later. We were also impressed the second time. The menu was changed for us by the very flexible service and the kitchen, so that we were not served dishes that we had already eaten on our first visit.The service is also very attentive and we were looked after very well, as if we were good friends. Miguel Marques, head chef since March 2025, and his team are truly sensational in the way they play with the flavors, whether fish, meat or dessert. We wish you many guests who appreciate what very good cuisine means. A real treat! Susanne and Christian

What delicious food and warm gracious service! We loved everything we ate the Spanish eggs over potatoes and mushrooms were to die for and the fried cod was DELICIOUS! I saw other tables order the chorizo that you toast over fire at your table and I was so envious and wished I had ordered that too! It looked amazing!

It was nice, but the burgers were a little over cooked, but the rest was pretty good, the fries and the croquetes, very good

Great service. Just what we were looking for to celebrate a special occasion! The menu offerings are so enticing and well presented. The waitress was able to describe with detail preparations. Everything tastes so delicious. It would be a go to place with frequency if I lived close by!

The place looks brand new. The menu was a bit confusing in respect to vegan / vegetarian legend. All tofu dishes were identified as vegetarian. Everything we tried was tasty, but the dishes could be more balanced in terms of protein quantity. Portion size was well served.

The food is excellent, with very good pasta, some of the best fish, and the best steak we have had in Portugal.  They also have an excellent port wine selection (Calem also owns Barros, Burmester, and Kopke) and they make their own ice cream for dessert.  Additionally, the walls are all glass so it makes people watching on one side and river watching on the other (with the incredible view of Porto and the Luis I bridge in the background) an extra treat.  However, it the service that puts this place over the top!   Carla, Stephanie, and Gustavo were all top notch and made the experience special.  Carla was all smiles and seemed to be having the best time, even with all our silly touristy questions, and her attitude was infectious.  And Stephanie remembered us from our last visit two years ago!  These two deserve a raise because they really make guests feel well taken care of.  In such a touristy area, they are unique in how genuine they are.  UVA is a Porto/Gaia favorite!!!

Amazing food and beautiful restaurant. Service was great, just a little bit slow. The meat dish was exceptionally tender. Couldn&rsquo;t be better!

The food was exceptional and it was impossible to choose a favorite dish. The wine pairings were perfect and the staff was lovely. What a gem!

Great burgers served up with love in a central but quiet part of town. It&rsquo;s also a shrine to the great Ayrton Senna. Highly recommended as a pitstop for Camino hikers.

An Unforgettable Culinary Experience! From start to finish, this restaurant delivered an exceptional dining experience, showcasing top-quality ingredients and  creativity.the artisanal bread, paired with a unique bautifull chilly and flavorful butter, was simply outstanding. The veal truffles were a must-try&mdash;delicate and packed with flavor.Creative Wellington  A  twist on the classic, infused with the deep, rich flavors of rabo de boi and finished with a luscious meat jus.Magret de Pato Cooked to perfection, complemented by a fragrant orange reduction and a rich veal sauce. The potato layers de  with truffle zest was a surprise on its own crispy, delicate, and bursting with aroma.Passion Fruit Cheesecake For those who prefer a lighter, more refreshing dessert, this was perfection&mdash;not overly sweet, just beautifully balanced.  Chocolate Mousse A dream for chocolate lovers like my  husband, made with high-quality chocolate that melts in your mouth.

nice small restaurant with a very polite and attentive service. tasty and interesting food. maybe the portion could be a bit more filling. but I would definitely go again.

Our second time for dinner. The food was delicious. We had the salmon and the steak was nice. We asked without the egg that was no problem. We asked for just a mixed salad, which was not on the menu, and this was very nice too. It came with a light dressing and tomatoes and carrots. We made a reservation, and this way you can request a window table.

Excellent Japanese food executed brilliantly that is largely well balanced. Very good wine and sake wine pairing to go along. Highly recommend!

We booked a table for 6 people, on the 8th of July. The atmosphere was amazing, relaxed and chilled ambience. Highly recommend the lobster and shrimp dish, ample food for 2 people... service was personal and excellent! Will definitely be returning when back in Braga.Thank you,Ben Hynes.

Great place with excellent service!Julio, our waiter, was very kind, and his colleague made sure our water glasses were always full.In terms of atmosphere: the upstairs area feels more upscale, while the balcony downstairs is also quite pleasant

I had the Diavola pizza, and it was simply magnificent! The flavors were incredible, making it a must-try for pizza lovers.

This restaurant offers a fantastic tropical platter that is both delicious and generously portioned, making it a great value for the price!

A hidden gem outside the tourist area, this restaurant features a lovely old dining room and a caring staff that ensures a delightful meal.

I love dining here! The atmosphere is comfortable, and the staff, especially Juliana, always ensure that everything is perfect.

Incredible food and lovely staff. We always enjoy an evening out here. The coated chicken and the black cod are amazing main courses.
