Casa Expresso

The best meal we had in Portugal. If you know you know good food, this restaurant is not to be missed. The environment is rustic and lively and the service is prompt with great recommendations from the staff. We had the pork roll, soup with meat and blood (surprisingly amazing) and the homemade wafer cake for desert (which I wouldn’t normally go for but was recommended and incredible). We’ll be coming back again tomorrow.

Very fun vibe and ultra busy, you can try really authentic Portuguese food for a great price. The service was great and the beers were tasty. I loved my vegetable soup, it had nice chunks of cabbage and geeens swimming around. The French fries tasted really amazing! You might have to come early if you want a good seat, or even a seat at all.

We stopped here briefly during our day in Porto. After being recommended through Instagram reels, we had to check out what the rave was about this giant pork sandwich. It was delicious!! The pork was insanely flavourful.

Authentic place recommended by serveral youtubers. It was well worth it ! The pork just melts in your mouth and the marinade that the meat is cooked in is so flavourfull ! This place is a must visit ! (And it was very affordable at 3,50€)

Loved this place. Very warm and friendly service. The food is absolutely spot on. The vibe is there with the local regulars. Everybody looking out for each other. It's a must visit!

I was very happy to find out they have take-out option, the man at the counter was smiley, I got a hearty tummy-warming dinner of meat soup and tripe stew with rice, too much for 1 sitting, ate again for breakfast. Very satisfied

A small, authentic place serving excellent Portuguese fare.  Ambience is minimal, but we had fantastic grilled Carapaus (mackerel) and Rojões (spicy pork knee sandwiches).  Delicious food for a decent price.  Our bill was EUR 24,60 and I told the young waiter *in fluent Portuguese* (I'm a native speaker) to round it up to EUR 30,00 and keep the 5,40 balance as a tip.  I used my phone wallet without checking the handheld display and paid the bill.  It was only after being outside and looking at the phone again to call an Uber that I noticed a banner showing that I'd just been charged EUR 38.00, which was clearly not the number I spoke.  This is Europe, where tipping is not-so-common and often minimal.  Why would I tip EUR 13,40 on a EUR 24,60 bill?  Service was OK but clearly not even remotely justifying a 54% tip.  Maybe it was an honest mistake by the young waiter, maybe it wasn't (based on how he reacted it seemed more like the latter). The manager listened to my complaint, immediately apologized, opened the register and refunded the EUR 8,00 card overcharge in cash.   My advice is: don't miss this place and enjoy its great food, but be vigilant at the time of paying if using phone or credit card.

Pork sandwich is fantastic. The older guy behind the bar is full of life. Love feeling welcome, it's clear they love what they do!
