Portugal Shines with Eight New One-Star Restaurants

"A Two MICHELIN Star restaurant in Porto that retains its award for exceptional cuisine worth a detour." - The MICHELIN Guide

Antiqvvm

"There are places in the world that, because of their location, exert a special power of attraction and this is definitely the case with Antiqvvm, situated in a leafy park in the centre of Porto, next to the Museu Romântico. This sensation is enhanced by its pleasant garden boasting idyllic views of the banks of the Douro! In its elegant dining rooms, tastefully embellished with classic and contemporary decorative detail, chef Vítor Matos has a fondness for creative seasonal cuisine that places huge emphasis on his ingredients, combining these in a way that aims to enhance the main component of each dish (we particularly enjoyed the blue lobster with Moqueca, and the Silken & Smooth Tofu Mount Fuji, with chilli, citrus fruit, mango and curry). In his own words, the chef, who finds inspiration from his surroundings, “is continually striving to promote the values of cuisine that is cultural, natural, evolving, social and artistic”. He offers just two tasting menus: Sensory Moments (the Imperial Anjou Pigeon was our favourite dish) and Organic (vegetarian)." - Michelin Inspector

This is a top notch experience in Porto. The grounds themselves are beautiful with a great view of the river. Dinner started with cocktails in the garden. We got the vegetarian and the meat tasting menus, they both had some great signature dishes. On the meat / fish side I really appreciated the food being tasty - adventurous yes, but not so far to comprise the eating experience. Friendly service, and some great wine choices (get the pairing!).

Great presentation of foods and taste, nice garden for a drink prior to the meal, very worth to visit. Only improvement is description of each dish by English which is important part of experience. We know the waitress did her best and she was pleasant, but wish it could be better illustrative.

Antiqvvm delivers a refined and memorable dining experience. The service was warm and attentive, and the Sensory Moments tasting menu with wine pairing was beautifully presented with well-balanced flavors. Portions were on the small side, and we didn’t leave completely full, but the quality and setting more than made up for it. The view over the Douro River adds an extra touch to a truly special evening. Highly recommended.

We came the day after the big Iberian outage. Revenge dining you may say. The sensory moment menus were spectacular, though some dishes were more successful than others IMHO. I personally enjoyed most the umami rich foie gras with tangy rhubarb & slight sweetness. Outstanding. The Claus Porto 'soap' was a very nice touch. Cute. The recommended bubbly worked well with overall - thanks to the sommelier. I deeply appreciated the work behind the plate choices & presentation, right down to the cup & saucer ..though few were a bit over the top for the refined vibe. Service level met expectation .. though there were a bit of rush towards next course. Pricing had factored in the 2-stars status. Loved the overall experience & environment.

We had a lovely 8 course meals with wine pairing lunch and truly appreciated the quality of the food and the attentive service—especially from the young lady who took care of us so graciously throughout the meal. However, we were quite disappointed to discover a €20 charge for the final glass of port wine, which we believed was complimentary. The wine server did not mention there would be an additional cost, and had that been made clear, we would have declined it. Unfortunately, this unexpected charge left us with a sour note after what was otherwise a wonderful experience. For a two-star Michelin restaurant, we expected a higher level of transparency. So be careful when they offer an extra glass of wine as it might cost you!

Antiqvvm is definitely one of the best restaurants my girlfriend and I have tried. If it’s not the best, it’s pretty close! From the moment we walked in, we were won over by the cozy and romantic vibe. The amazing view of the bridge adds a special touch to the whole experience. The food is just incredible. Every bite is full of flavor, beautifully prepared and presented with so much attention to detail. You can really taste the skill of the chefs in each dish. The staff is awesome too. They’re friendly, attentive, and make sure you have everything you need, all while being super nice and knowledgeable. Whether you’re into gourmet food or just looking for an unforgettable dinner in a romantic setting, Antiqvvm is a place you have to check out.

Antiqvvm – a culinary symphony above the Douro! My spouse and I rose in a full standing ovation for the Chef and his Team—Bravo, Maestros! Now to the review :) Some meals linger for flavour; a rare few reset your idea of what cooking can achieve. Our dinner this March at Antiqvvm—newly adorned with two Michelin stars—falls firmly in that second camp. From the leafy terrace you glimpse the river, but once the first amuse-bouche lands, Porto slips away and you are carried through an eight-course (13 in our case for our honeymoon) narrative of colour, texture, and scent. We chose the full tasting menu with wine pairing, and never once looked back. Service & atmosphere: “Choreography” is the only word that fits. Plates arrive in silent unison, water glasses refill as if by telepathy, and dish descriptions read like poetry without ever drifting into lecture. Picture a chamber orchestra in flawless counterpoint: every gesture, pour, and plate drop timed to the millisecond, yet offered with effortless grace and an easy smile. You never have to ask— the team already knows. Crystal stays spotless, cutlery re-aligns itself, and every question, no matter how curious, earns a thoughtful, unhurried answer. It isn’t dinner so much as watching Leonardo da Vinci lay the final brushstroke on the Mona Lisa while a calm ensemble keeps the studio humming. Precise, pristine, and warmly human all at once! Final word: The Chef and THE Team, they—and only they—stand in front of the masterpieces they deliver; we are merely lucky guests, basking in their CREATION! If you’re ready to let dinner rewrite your definition of possibility, reserve a seat—then surrender, applaud, and enjoy the art unfolding before you.

Our dinner was truly a delightful experience – a culinary journey that was visually stunning and rich with unexpected, nuanced flavors. The service was impeccable, and the charm of the historic building provided the perfect setting for the occasion.

Organic Tasting Menu This was such a delightful experience!!! This tasting menu has so many courses and so many bonus chef creations at the start and end of the meal. Each dish was just such a flavor shock to me, so unique and fresh and incredible. I've never had such unique creations before. Interestingly, there's not much of a focus on protein dishes in this menu. The interior of this restaurant is beautiful, set in the Crystal Palace Gardens and overlooking a great scenic view. Servers are exception of course. Beautiful bathrooms too ohmy. Definitely deserves its Michelin star!!

This place deserves 2 Michelin stars, instead of just 1. Fantastic service, beautiful ambiance and decor, excellent food. They were accommodating of dietary restrictions and offered excellent wine recommendations. Since it was a tasting menu that changes, I won't go through each course. We very much enjoyed each of them! Must try restaurant during your stay in Porto. This was one of our favorites. Highly recommend.

Ambiance/service: kind of out of the city so more secluded (was a 30 minute walk from the city center, 8-10 minute drive). The view is nice if it's not too dark out already. The servers were on-it (at your table if you need anything) and very friendly Price: €120 for regular prix fixe menu and £80 for vegetarian which we each got one so we got to try the full selection (spoiler both were delicious). They had wine pairings for an extra cost which we passed on. Food: typical fine dining fancy food presentation which I love, great attention to detail. The taste of the dishes were all very unique and a blend of different flavors. I do think the regular food dishes were slightly more yummy and savory as a lot of the vegetarian dishes were more fresh (ie one was a fancy caprese salad with tomato ice, another was a citrus with tofu blend) though there was one vegetarian seaweed rice risotto that was very good. Both desserts were delicious (in fact, I'd say the vegetarian one which my favorite) All in all, this is a great place to have a special meal. There is lots of attention to detail in the service and food.

Out of 5 stars: - service: 5/5 - ambiance: 5/5 - food: 4/5 - price: 5/5 Location and Ambiance: I came here with friends and as people from abroad, we got a bit lost finding the restaurant as it is hidden in a part of the park at the basement of the Romantic Museum. Once we found the restaurant, we saw beautiful terrace views and wonderful scenery. Upon walking in, we noted a quiet ambiance and calming music. We were promptly seated at a table and I can say that the decor matches the scenery seen through the wide windows. Pricing: We ordered the savory moments tasting menu which was 150€. It came with 7 courses. Price is on the higher end for a 1 michelin but they offered a vegetarian menu for ~90€. Overall the prices were fair especially since I think the overall experience is closer to that of a 2 michelin (which is 200+€). Service: Ok now this is the best part! Our waiter was patient in answering our questions and offered excellent service, replacing our utensils and plates in a prompt and professional manner. He operated with the most elegant manner maneuvering smoothly while handling all our plates. He also remembered our request to take out the sea urchin foam. The sommelier was very knowledgeable about the different port wines and flavor profiles. He was able to dive into the aging process and answer any questions we asked. He was attentive and got us great white wines to taste and the perfect caramel accented port wine for dessert. Overall the service is perfection and definitely on a 2+ michelin level. For some background, my party has been to multiple 1,2, and 3 star michelin restaurants in NYC. We were a bit surprised to find out that Antiqvvm is 1 star only. Food: Our savory moments tasting menu was enjoyable. There were some dishes which were a hit (the scallops and steak were my favorite) and others I didn't enjoy as much mainly due to my preference. All the food was presented in a manner that matches the flowers in the garden. Very light, airy and vivid. The dessert was amazing and is a wonderful finisher. Overall food presentation was awesome and I loved the scallops and steak!

Like many of the other reviews mentioned, I am surprised why Antiqvvm is only a one star michelin restaurant and not a two star. I was blown away from my experience here and I highly recommend anyone in the area to book a reservation to Antiqvvm. I was able to book a table for 2 about ~1.5 weeks in advance but this was during the ongoing pandemic, so I can only imagine how far in advance you would need to a reservations during normal times. This place is very well hidden down a small alley and into a dirt parking lot. You then venture down a slope that takes you to the front of the restaurant. Upon arrival, I was quickly seated and given a menu. Their wine menu comes on a tablet and if you're interested in cocktails, make sure you ask them for that separate menu. For the food, I've decided on ordering al la carte versus the set menu since I am particularly picky. Due to their great hospitality, we ended up getting just as many items on the tasting menu because we had non stop chief compliments. I think we were easily given 4-5 complimentary dishes, all of which were super delicious and complimented well with my al la carte dishes. By the time I got my main entree, I was beyond full, but continued to eat because it was too good. I'm not going into details of every dish that I've tried here but some of my highlights were... - seaweed butter with bread (I love bread, and the seaweed added an unique taste to the traditional butter) - "discovery" the lamb: superrr tender and flavorful - "Influences of the World" with lobster and topped with mango: you can't even tell that its mango, great for sneaking it mango for those who dislike it. Overall, Antiqvvm is one of the bestttt restaurant I had the pleasure of trying and would highly recommend to anyone in the area!

Such great wine lists in Amsterdam and Antiqvvm is no exception. Enjoyed a lovely difficult-to-source orange wine that worked well with every plate. Everyone enjoys the bread at restaurants, but this was exceptional even if they didn't serve it with the butter. Beautiful views but kind of a hike/bike from the main parts of Amsterdam=all the better.

A must-try Michelin dining experience in Porto. The restaurant is tucked away in nature with serene outdoor views that make you feel as if you've escaped to your own private villa. The service is superb, with your own designated waiter who explains every detail of each dish and how the city of Porto inspired every nuance. I did the vegetarian lunch tasting ($80) while my husband did the main lunch tasting ($150). The combo was perfect as the main tasting is a bit heavy and the vegetarian sequence resembles a dessert and palate cleanser. The sommelier visits to explain the wine selection, which features wine from the famous Duoro valley. Our dining experience here was a highlight of our trip to Porto.

Beautiful restaurant, romantic, modern and unique decore. My fiancé and I decided on the sensory moment full tasting menu with the wine pairing. Each dish was better than the last and once again this 1 michelin star restaurant knocked the 2 star restaurants out of the water. Presentation on dish and by our moment creators, a full description of each dish along with a brief history of each paired wine made for an all around incredible experience. The staff was very kind and accommodating to my dietary needs as well as refreshingly knowledgeable about every single ingredient and feeling behind chefs inspiration. I highly recommend anyone traveling to Porto to make this restaurant a top priority!

This will go down as one of the best meals of my life. Highly recommend if you're in Porto and don't mind spending on excellent food, service, and ambience.

Hands down the best dining experience in my life. Food, service, price and ambience were just exceptional. Highly recommend the Organic vegetarian tasting menu (80 euros/person). Cannot wait them to get Michelin two stars. Lastly, wanted to thank our server, Rafael, who took care of our dining experience at the highest level.

Stellar. I've been lucky enough to eat at several Michelin-starred restaurants including the French Laundry, Joel Rubichon and Jean George, and Antiqvvm has the goods. The setting is spectacular, but also spectacularly hidden. Thank god for GPS. As for the food, I had the Organic tasting menu (vegetarian, though I had forgotten that until now because I never felt I was missing anything) with the wine pairing and my date had another tasting menu (non-vegetarian). Each dish was packed with flavor, and a nice mix of tastes. Not a clunker among the 20 dishes between us! The wines were also spectacular and the sommelier really knew his stuff. If you're into fine dining and willing to drop €80-€120 each on dinner, I can't recommend this place too highly. My date and I are shocked that Antiqvvm only has 1 Michelin star though, we thought it was definitely worthy of two.

Probably the best restaurant in Porto. I've tasted a degustation menu that transported me to the rich flavors of traditional Portuguese food. The staff was amazingly professional and pleasant. The location absolutely amazing. You have the atmosphere of Douro Valley in the center of Porto. If you are will to pay an extra bucks, indulge yourself!

Didn't plan to write this review but I want to commend the chef for the experience I was afforded on Friday evening. As a vegetarian, I don't often get the treat of a tasting menu experience. Sadly, this often precludes my dinner guests from the experience. On Friday, the chef allowed my companion to have the tasting menu, and went above and beyond in serving me. Several of the items on the menu were adapted to be vegetarian so, despite note ordering the tasting menu, I got to follow along during several courses. The food was not what I expected--Portugese that crossed borders. There were some interesting twists, but they did the traditional pieces best. The asparagus risotto is one of the best I have ever had. Thanks again!

The best restaurant we ever tried in Porto, with incredibly affordable price! Worth every cents spent. Still can't believe €27.5 lunch includes 3-course meal, including a glass of wine and a cup of coffee! All the dishes are decent, flavorful, balanced, and appreciated to the food materials themselves. Highly recommended!

I thought the space was beautiful and the service was good. The dishes are good I went with a vegetarian friend and there are a few suitable choices in the menu. Good value for the experience.

The food, wine and staff were all extraordinary!! It is a beautiful restaurant and chef Vitor Matos is extremely talented, attentive and kind. We were so happy and honored to have had an opportunity to have met him! It was overall an unforgettable experience and we can highly recommend anyone going to Antiqvvm.

Wonderfully imagined & realized courses, splendid choreography of service. Only the third restaurant in my lifetime to earn my 5-star rating! YELP, this is a 5-Star restaurant, NOT a "wine bar" !

We've been to several Michelin one-star restaurants in London & Spain, but this one was off its mark on the day we attended. We're challenging: a fish-eating vegan & a Celiac patron who must avoid gluten and cross-contamination. We found the restaurant hard to find, so look closely at a map and leave time to be lost getting there (signage is poor and it's off a street & parking lot). The setting was magical. The AC inside was only cooling to about 75 degrees for our window table. Food was interesting, delicious, and suitable for the ranking. The local breads were varied and something we didn't come across in our travels. Fish dishes were varied & tasty. On the downside, the service was not up to par. We had to ask numerous times for the water we purchased & finally ended up serving ourselves. We did the full tasting menu & wine pairings, excluding dishes that couldn't be modified to accommodate our dietary needs. The wine pairings were generally very inexpensive (not a problem if good wines!), and also disappointing. The sommelier seemed uninformed & a couple of times interrupted her pouring when plates arrived so we ended up with partial pours & presentations. None of the served wines were on the wine list and several were non-vintage. The wait staff and the chef insisted (incorrectly) that the stout beer included in one dessert did not contain gluten. After some discussion they brought a gluten-free replacement. For us, it was a very unsettling experience. Would definitely recommend that instead of the wine pairings you select your wine from the wine list.
