Enoteca 17•56 - Real Companhia Velha

Good food but we had the lunch set. Should have tried their ala carte. The beef sirloin was amazing. A must try. Nice place for lunch as you can enjoy the view of the Douro river while chilling out over lunch.

We had a wonderful dining experience,the Asian dishes were outstanding, full of flavor and creativity. The Beef Wellington, however, didn’t quite meet our expectations, as the mustard was a bit too dominant and masked the flavor of the meat. That said, the cheesecake was absolutely delightful – a perfect way to end the meal.

Had 3 meals here in two days. I can highly recommend the tiger prawn risotto, the beef wellington, the red velvet cheesecake and the caramel fondant. Amazing. The view is also stunning.

Came here at 6:30pm. Was told dinner is fully booked and won’t be able to serve until 10pm. So I sat at the bar and had some bar food until 7:30pm which is when I left. I was offered to eat at 7:30 to 8:30pm one hour and I had to finish. Even though by the time I left, the place is 10% occupied. Who cares, I ordered two snacks, two drinks and sparkling water. The entire time table is not full and I had ti call them to refill my water and 2nd time I had to refill my own water. No service absolutely.

There were five of us, and half of the main dishes we ordered were oversalted — even the rice with lobster, which was very disappointing. The desserts (we ordered four of them) contained too much sugar. The service and ambience were amazing, but I honestly hope for a better experience with the food.

We ate lunch here. Seafood is fresh, risottos taste good but a little bit salty.

Very nice ambience but SO overpriced for Portugal. A tip is suggested on the bill, which in Portugal, let’s you know you’re in a tourist trap. Very nice restaurant, but at the price point, I would not recommend it. And the food, while fine, wasn’t great.

I had a really amazing meal here and have returned time and time again. The beautiful way they assemble the dishes, particularly the sushi is incredible (see pictures). My recommendation is stick with the Asian and Sushi dishes as there always please. The steak was good, but be careful when ordering "chips" as as these are thin slices of potato fried (essentially "crisps" which took me off guard), not chips as in the English sense of the word. Plus, there are no sauces to go with your meat, which might not be to your taste. Would highly recommend and a must for anyone visiting Porto.
