Brasão Salgueiros

The Restaurant itself is really nice. Location is top and the View is great. They have glass to protect u from the wind outside without obstructing the view The waiters were a bit weird, often misunderstanding us. They charge u for each packaging if u want the leftovers for take away. We didnt want the chips, they still put it in(3 chips which is ridiculous) and charged 1,80€ for that. The food itself was good, nothing to special tho.

We went for lunch and I was hesitant about ordering meat at the seaside, but went for a bife anyway. It was hands down the best one I have ever had. The francesinha was also good and the bolo de bolacha, traditional but with a twist, was amazing. Waiters were super helpful and nice, asking if everything was ok and helping us to choose dessert, which was not easy 😋. The views were also beautiful and relaxing. Hope to come back soon. Thanks!!

This is the spot I visit whenever I crave their octopus rice or francesinha. The octopus rice is a great dish to share and it super rich in flavours. It's definitely enough for 2-3 people, especially if you have a little side or starter. They also have a great house IPA if I'm not mistaken. Goes great with the food. The service isn't great, but that may be due to the sheer number of people visiting this spot. It's very popular and pretty much always full whenever I've visited.

I loved the view. Arrived at 5:30. We had sangria and the food was very yummy. The view was lovely. The customer service was very good too

Brasão Salgueiros delivers exactly what one would expect from the Brasão name: high-quality food, a well-curated space, and top-notch service. The restaurant is beautifully located just by the sea, making it ideal for a relaxed yet refined lunch. The menu lives up to the brand’s reputation—flavourful dishes, generous portions, and consistent execution. The service is particularly worth noting: the staff is friendly, highly professional, and remarkably attentive without being intrusive. The decor is stylish, combining rustic elements with a modern touch. The use of artificial plants is the only slight letdown, but it doesn’t take away from the overall charm. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable and pleasant lunch experience near the beach.

Recommended by our hotel host, Brasão Salgueiros turned out to be an outstanding dining experience, combining flawless steak, traditional Portuguese flavors, and breathtaking views over the water. A Setting Like No Other One of the biggest highlights of Brasão Salgueiros is its stunning waterfront location. Arriving in time for sunset is a must—the golden light reflecting off the water creates an unforgettable dining atmosphere, making the experience all the more special. Drinks & Starters • The white sangria was fresh, vibrant, and well-balanced, packed with seasonal fruit that elevated both the flavor and the presentation. The Food: Rich, Bold, and Perfectly Executed • Francesinha: This dish often risks being too heavy or basic, but Brasão Salgueiros elevates it to another level. The perfectly cooked steak inside adds unexpected depth, while the rich, flavorful sauce pairs beautifully with crispy fries. • Oven Rice with Sirloin Steak: Though this dish took a little longer to arrive, the staff kept us informed of the delay, showing great attention to service. The steak was cooked to absolute perfection—medium-rare, juicy, and tender. Service & Atmosphere • The staff was exceptional, providing warm, accommodating service that made the experience especially enjoyable for tourists. • The combination of waterfront views, a relaxed yet upscale ambiance, and impeccable service makes this one of the best dining experiences in Porto. Final Verdict Brasão Salgueiros isn’t just a steakhouse—it’s a destination. With expertly cooked meats, a standout Francesinha, and one of the most beautiful sunset views in the city, this restaurant is absolutely worth a visit. Whether you’re here for the food, the drinks, or the view, you won’t be disappointed.

If you’re in Gaia and craving something that’s a step above your average joint, Brasão Salgueiros delivers. The decor hits that sweet spot between modern industrial chic and cozy tavern, with warm lighting and attentive but relaxed staff that make you feel at home even before the food hits the table. The real star is the francesinha but the menu is broader than just comfort food, though. And if you’re not in the mood for meat, there are solid vegetarian options too – rare for a place that takes its meat very seriously. Reservations are a smart idea (actually essential even during weekdays); this isn’t a hidden gem anymore. But even when it’s busy, service holds up well. All in all, Brasão Salgueiros is what happens when a traditional concept meets modern taste – and it works.

The location by the beach created a great atmosphere. However, the service was disappointing — the server seemed too busy, and I had to repeat every request two or three times before eventually asking a different server. There were too many bones in the fish, which made it uncomfortable to eat. The food was average, but the terrace with the sea view was truly wonderful.
