It was a multi course meal and everything's good from starter soup to dessert. Nice intimate atmosphere, courteous service. This is also where we had breakfast in the morning when the terrace is open. Breakfast is one of the better ones we had on the trip with super tasty yogurts. They will make eggs to order but you'll have to ask as it doesn't seem to be something they promote.

What a terrible experience :(…read more We had been here before for a wine tasting and lunch and we had some family in town and decided to book again. We booked for 4 people and then when they emailed us back confirmation we saw that children were not allowed. So we called to change the booking from 4 people to 2 people so that myself and my wife could take our son to the nearby park. They refused to change it even though it had only been 30 minutes since we made the booking. They spent 10 minutes telling us they could not change the booking and instead offering to have us pay full price for our child to come. My wife was on the phone with them for 10 minutes and then I tried to talk to them and lost my temper due to the poor service. I am sorry I lost my temper. The hostess was quite dismissive and unhelpful. We were going to bring 5 people to your restaurant for lunch and just needed to change from 4 people to 2 people for the wine tasting after since you don't allow kids (which you only told us after we paid and booked). There are far friendlier and better places in the Douro river valley that do a better job. We will never come to this restaurant and winery again. Ben

H'or doevres were not hot and very doughy. There were several but I was only offered one. Octopus carpaccio was the hit of the evening. Razor think with salsa verde and pomegranate seeds. The beef tenderloin was not hot and overcooked but tender. The exquisite dessert was too much for me so I just tasted the mango sorbet. Lots of wine pairings.

At least they have printed menus now but they definitely try to steer you to the prix fixe pages. We said no thanks and they accepted that but not before bread, olives, and two glasses of port neither of us really wanted. My wife enjoyed her lamb stew; my pork spare ribs with rice and cabbage was OK but fatty. All in all, it was good, not great. Prices were reasonable. Just be polite but firm when they bring you things you don't want.

We stopped in here between two wineries we ate lunch at CACHA D'OIRO in Régua. Ok, I know I said…read morethis before, but this was one of my favorite meals. This very cute restaurant was empty since we were here after the lunch crowd so we were seated immediately. My meal was a dish of pork cheeks cooked in an amazing gravy with potatoes and tasted like 'comfort food'. If I didn't KNOW this was pork I would have thought it was beef short ribs off the bone...tasted absolutely amazing. Wifey ordered baked cod sprinkled with cornbread crumbs and served with a couple small potatoes and some greens. Our guide, who knew the owners here, had fried octopus and let us have a taste - yeah, this was fantastic too! Though our guide recommended dessert we had to pass as our servings were rather large and we knew we'd have something sweet soon enough. What an incredible lunch.

We started with olives and the partridge, moorillas and foie Gras ravioli that simply melted in my mouth. For main course I had the black Angus steak with balsamic that was perfect and the balsamic balls were the perfect on top of the mashed potatoes and fun to eat! My friend had the duck and that was delicious as well. The desserts are what initially attracted us here and we could not resist the egg O Ovo that was a whole experience in every bite, you must try! We also had the lave dar and eucalyptus creme Brule that was an amazing marriage of flavors that danced on our palette.

With an inviting owner Silvia, who is incontestably a kind host with a great deal of patience and dedication for her guests. She started this restaurant adventure with her sister known to be a talented cook. Her husband, the wine maker of Aneto had purchased with her a winery that required a lot of attention and love. So, the idea was to create an Artisanal and innovative restaurant that would be supporting and enhancing their wine business. Well, they are now number ONE and recognized by the regional wine tourism association! Bravo ! They offer a small selection of Tapas and a wine pairing experience with eight original creations. They were also recommended to me by the owner of two great restaurants in Porto (Meia-Nau). The verdict is great! Our Tapas with Mussels and Sardines were great. The Portobello mushroom with tomatoes and a decomposition of ratatouille was divine. The Black Pasta with Mussels was also excellent. And for the wine The Grand Reserve Tinto 2020 was a delightful surprise. A full body wine with a well balanced combination of complexity and lightness. This wine offers a mixed elixir of joy with oak, vanilla, strong Blackberry , dark curent and wet saddle as well as a hint of chocolate and citrus! This is place is a great value in a charming and relaxed ambiance. We will be back!
