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.

Their outside patio was fully booked so we ate inside which was a rare dinner experience: All six of us enjoyed our starters, mains (steak, salmon, and tuna) and sides, and the 2 desserts we shared (cheesecake and drunken cake) - a 100% consensus that it was one of our top meals of all time. The service was unrushed, yet very attentive. The food was so fresh. We highly recommend this great restaurant!

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

The cuisine was par excellence, the setting overlooking the Douro River superb and the hospitality and service unmatched. The baked cod melted in your mouth, the salad ever so fresh, the mushroom bread soup delicious. When we noted to the waiter a large pot delivered to the owner's table, we inquired as to its contents. We expected a simple answer, but the owner brought us a bowl of chicken, rice and sausage like we had never had before. For desert we had fresh pineapple with the chef's spices, quite different and refreshing. Anyone visiting the Douro Valley should make a plan to try the Douro In for lunch or dinner!

English a bit off but I appreciate that he is really trying. A lot better than my Portuguese. The fish steak was so so. It had good flavoring but I really wanted a more quality fish. I like that I was able to add a salad. I had a delicious coffee and pineapple soda which the waiter thought it was a sparkling drink as a translation. Somewhat similar but not quite the same. Coffee was very on-point and Porto Wine cake had a homey feel and was satisfyingly tasteful. I declined the bread since there is bread everywhere and I don't want too many carbohydrates. It probably cost extra. I tried to confirm with the waiter but I don't think he understood this nuance. He was also serving so many people with only one other person and this person was naturally better at serving more people at once than the other person but they both seemed very kind.

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!
