Restaurante O Comercial - Palácio da Bolsa

This is a luxurious restaurant at very reasonable prices. Situated inside the palace , that is the site for the Chamber if Commerce. You will see the outstanding håll on the way in. There are no signs outside indicating the restaurant. But climb up the stairs to the main entrance and a doorman will show you the way to to the restaurant. The interior is not opulent but very dignified luxury. 6-7 meters to the ceiling. Through windows you can see Douro. A set menue or a la carte. 3 courses for 25 €!! Wine is very reasonable priced as well.. Excellent service. Food was good though not outstanding. But a welcome difference from the tourist traps just 100 m away.

We booked this for four of us to celebrate a birthday while in Portugal. It’s a lovely space that reflects the history of the building. The food was excellent and the service was prompt. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meal and I would recommend a visit if you wish to surround yourself with a more upmarket ambiance.

We paid around 200 euros per person for the New Year’s Eve dinner and were honestly very disappointed. The food was extremely poor in quality and absolutely not worth the price. This felt more like a tourist trap than a fine dining experience. What surprises me most is that Porto has so many excellent restaurants, yet this place charges such a high price while delivering such low quality food. The only positive aspect was the ambience. The building itself is beautiful and very impressive. Unfortunately, that alone does not justify the experience.

We recently dined here with a group. While a set menu for larger parties is understandable, the overall experience was disappointing. The service felt uninterested and inattentive. There was no flexibility for guests who wished to order drinks outside the group menu, nor was there any communication about alternatives. Wine and water were refilled slowly, leaving guests with empty glasses unless they explicitly asked. The main courses (sea bass and tenderloin) were good. However, the soup was bland and lacked seasoning, which was surprising given the overall positioning of the restaurant. Overall, this was not a high-quality experience and did not meet our expectations, which is why we are leaving this review.

This restaurant is really a perfect restaurant with a palace vibe. It is located inside the Palacio da Bolsa, it is very intimate, quiet, I love the vibe! The service was amazing as well, the price was excellent. We took the Executive Set Menu of 3 course with wine, it was super good! We started with the cheese bread-ish, I forgot the name with a big portion of it, and then I had the risotto with octopus which was really good and comforting, and the dessert was my favourite, citron merinque with fruit sauce, the best! I would love to go back there when I re-visit Porto for sure!!

Beautiful Ambiente in the Palace antique Style, comfortable seats, relaxed atmosphere. Very friendly Service. We had the Lunch Menu, which was very good considering the prize of only 23€ for 3 course…included a Glass of wine, which was rather low Quality. The cod fish is NOT a local fish- it was deep frozen.

The restaurant is located inside the Palácio da Bolsa, which is an impressive building. Due to the ongoing Covid restrictions, there is a temperature control before entering the restaurant. The dining room is beautiful and lushly furnished. The view from the window seats is pleasant. At lunchtime, a 3 course set menu with wine and water is offered for 19€ which is a very good price for the surroundings and quality of food and service. Portions are quite big. The food is tasty. Service is professional. Definitely worth visiting.

This spot was a little hard to find as our party didn't realize it was inside the church. Took us about 10 mins of circling to figure out it was a spot indoors without being labeled. The food was great (apart from the soup), service and the establishment is very beautiful. Staff were kind and great about recommendations. I would definitely try this place out for a very chic experience.
