    Sea Scallops Hot Plate
    Marla C.

    I really wanted to like this restarant, but it fell short of expectation. The only thing good about the restaurant was the presentation, other than that, it was underwhelming. The menu does not describe the dish fully. The sea bass ceviche had a layer of fish eggs/caviar on top which I do not eat, and it was not mentioned on the menu. The Octopus should have come with olives and egg, but it came with roasted pepper? I love egg and olive, which is part of the reason I ordered it as I thought the combination would pair nicely. But the dish was completely different than described. Dirty dishes sat on our table for a while. Service was lacking. I'd skip this place and go to Aneto.

    Please make a reservation we were able to sit out on the patio and have a lovely dinner.

    Truffle iberico ham

    The food was next level. The service was nice and slow giving you time to enjoy everything. When i was ready to leave, one of the servers didn't want to provide any help on where to store or keep luggage but another bar tended I asked on my way out told me they can help me with it. Small details like that matter since they are in the middle of a very touristy area. The ambiance and area was amazing as well. I had the truffle carpaccio , the trout with dirty rice was the to die for !! And finally the dessert with mushroom ice cream was out of this world.

    Wonderful train station turned into numerous restaurants. This one was beautiful. We sat outside where the waiting area used to be. Food was exquisite. Ceviche with caviar on top and Partridge ravioli in a mushroom sauce were both perfect.

    We were staying nearby and booked a table via email after researching online. It's located in the small city of Régua. We arrived by taxi from our hotel and were enchanted with the restaurants location and decor. Located it what looked to be a repurposed and restored warehouse next to the train station, the dark moody interior is rimmed with the upstairs restaurant's wine selection (the wine menu is over an inch thick). We were seated at a nice table upstairs that was perfect for the two of us. The menu offers a variety of hot and cold starters, fish and meat. We decided to share the warm goat cheese and pineapple tart (tasty and unique) to start followed by their bachalau (cod fish-just ok) as our main. We shared the chocolate caramel peanut "parfait" (fantastic) which was more of a small chocolate moose, peanut butter ice cream and rich caramel sauce. In addition to hundreds of wines their by the glass list has quite a few very reasonable choices as well and we tried a couple of different whites with our food. Service was friendly and everyone spoke English so there were no issues not knowing Portuguese.

    Getting here was the best part of the experience (rolling hills, gorgeous terraced vineyards, beautiful river) The restaurant itself is really pretty - an aging railway station to one side and the Douro on the other. The food was decent, we ordered: The foie gras - was really delicious The warm goat cheese on a grilled pineapple The ceviche - good Seafood linguini - ok Kids salmon - well made Vegetarian risotto - ok I can't figure out the service - it felt sometimes friendly and sometimes a bit uppity. I expected a lot more out of my meal after reading the reviews - nothing really stood out - everything seemed to be missing an ingredient to make it shine .

    Sirloin Steak with Spinach and Potatoes
    Jody G.

    This dinner was absolutely perfect in every way! Everything from the setting to the service to the food was spectacular. The restaurant is tucked in between the train station and the river.... so views to both the left and the right are lovely. What is it about European trains that are just so romantic? The service was white glove (without the stuffy gloves). Every utensil was replaced and placed with the precision of a surgeon. Each water glass was filled within a milliliter of every other on the table. Wine was opened and poured and repoured with an air of quiet elegance. The menu is lovely.... gourmet without being overwhelming. Cold starters included cerviche and octopus salads...... hot starters included mussels and cod. Of course our group must deviate from convention and so four of us shared an order each of "Mushroom and Vegetable Couscous" and "Risotto with Green Asparagus". Both were exquisite. The flavors popped and blended perfectly. The sauces were divine. One of us exclaimed, "This is as good as an orgasm". But..... better than sex.... the meal didn't end there. Three of us had the sirloin steak and one had salmon. The entrees were accompanied by sautéed and seasoned spinach and a roasted potato dish that was as light as a cloud and seasoned to perfection. The salmon was delicious..... but the steak was absolutely fantastic. It was cooked exactly to order, perfectly seasoned, and topped with a wonderful olive tapenade. Desserts (yep.... we had 'em) were works of art. It was difficult to choose from the entire page of delicacies .... cakes and tarts and sweets (oh my!) were each accompanied by their own flavor of house-made ice cream. My hazelnut cake with mocha cream and raspberry ice cream was so lovely to look at that I almost couldn't eat it. But of course I did..... with gusto!

    Duck with carrot mash and red fruit - this is so good
    Sally L.

    Conveniently located right off of the Regua train station, this place is great to relax and get a nice meal before you travel. GOOD - roasted duck with carrot puree was a real winner. cooked to perfection and supplemented with a red fruit marmalade and carrot puree, every bite was heavenly. - very extensive wine menu, so you can find pretty much all the famous port wines here - good place to charge your phone :) - there's AC.. you know you need it out in the douro valley heat BAD - I think there's only 1 bathroom here.. which is kind of annoying. - service was average, kind of slow and they weren't too friendly

    Lovely restaurant located right outside of the Regua train station. It's beautifully decorated inside with views overlooking the Douro river and surrounding vineyards. The wine menu is extensive and all of the food we had was delicious. I can't imagine the food in Regua getting better than this. Be sure to try the goat cheese appetizer - that was especially tasty! They have vegetarian and children options. And wifi. Service was great. The restaurant is upstairs and the bar and lounge are downstairs.

    This was a pleasant surprise. Arrived Règua train station and found this restaurant right by the station. Huge list of wines and every single entree looks delicious. We had The food gras, fish soup, and the red shrimp rice. 8 red shrimps were used in the dish where 4 were mashed into the rice and 4 were grilled and served with the rice. The view was fanatic too. Would definitely come back.

    FLOW - Pork cheek ravioli

    FLOW

    4.7(51 reviews)

    Porto has no shortage of great food, and Flow is definitely high on the list. The ambiance ended up…read morebeing one of our favorites from all our meals in Porto, and the food was nothing short of extraordinary. We were able to snag a reservation without really knowing what to expect and we definitely were not anticipating this level of elegance! We ended up having a three hour dinner because everything felt so comfortable, peaceful, and lovely. I cannot recommend the sliders with quail eggs on top enough. My husband had the Iberian pork and really enjoyed it, and I absolutely loved my octopus. It was probably some of the best I have ever had. For dessert we had cheesecake and it was just as divine. If you want a dinner you won't forget anytime soon, definitely check out this place.

    I usually save five stars for the really extraordinary experiences, but Flow is well deserving,…read moreeven if rounded up a bit. The interior space is gorgeous. Modern and airy, tables are well spaced, and the decor is very muted and subtle, but rich. The service is amazing. We were a table of 8 and everyone who came to the table was so nice, helpful, friendly and accommodating. I'm sure waiters hate having to take pics of everyone, but ours were fantastic about it. But all that aside, the food is incredible. I had Iberico pork that was so succulent, seared nicely and roasted (I assume). We all shared some steak tartare, tuna tartare and an amazing cheeseboard. Drinks were also on point. I really love it here and have added it to my "must do" list in Porto.
