My wife and I decided to go to this hotel for our wedding anniversary. I have never been to anything like it. This ranks up there with the finest dining experience I have ever had. First of all, there is that clandestine knock at the door. Waiting there on the street you imagine what must be on the other side.... More

My girlfriend and I travelled from Porto down to the Algarve over a 16 day period. This was by far our best meal in Portugal. From the moment you knock at the door (yes, you actually have to knock) the experience is magnificent. You wait for your table to be prepared in the interesting entrance area/bar area where there are... More

I recenly spent a week in Oporto and Douro Valley, and came to this restaurant for my wife's birthday. Without a doubt, it was the best quality food I had in Portugual and the host Sergio was fantastic. I don't think I've been to a restaurant where the host makes everyone feel so welcome. The scallop starter was amazing, and... More

Excellent atmosphere, fantastic wine menu, best " bacalhau" I ever had! Going to Porto, Must go to this place. Appetizers are fantastic.

A sophisticated version of Portugese food...combined with charming atmosphere and attentive service. The sheep butter was phenomenal...knock on the door....it is worth the trip !

Paparico is that rare gem where everything comes together beautifully. From the sincere welcome upon arrival, to the gorgeous table laid out with tastes from the sea and the land to sample as you peruse the menu, to the top-notch, attentive, knowledgeable service. We started with an octopus ceviche and local cheese, moved on to scallops, then cod, then veal... More

We went here because our hotel told us they had "The best gin and tonics in Porto" but had no other expectations. Imagine our surprise when we discovered a calm, lovely restaurant, decorated in a rustic style. It is a bit difficult to find, since there is no sign on the door, but once inside the food and service were... More

The food helps you get to know the country, is tasty, it has a story. The wine is great and the service friendly ,talking 7 languages ,polite, informed. The atmosphere is great for any kind of dinner : with friends, family, romantic,etc. It was a nice experience and we would love to go back. The wild octopus and the goat... More
