The 35 Best Restaurants in Porto, Portugal | Eater

"Hidden away in the heart of Porto’s ever-busy Ribeira district, this rustic spot from the team behind Terreiro and Taberna dos Mercadores is all about honoring the flavors of traditional local cuisine. Start with the cod fritters and a portion of shrimp in garlic sauce, then move on to one of the menu’s standout dishes: octopus filets with rice, a beloved Porto classic. You’ll also find comforting favorites like Bordeaux rooster and, for dessert, a standout quindim — a Brazilian-Portuguese egg yolk and coconut flan. Best for: A meal with a great river view — if you score an outdoor table." - Rafael Tonon
