Restaurante Real

This was the most amazing dinner we’ve had in Portugal! The food was more than delicious and the people were very kind and did everything to make our night great.

Beautiful setting, refined atmosphere, and very professional, attentive service throughout the meal. I ordered the premium ribeye. The flavour was good and the grilling technique was well executed, however the cut served was much thinner than expected for what was described as a premium ribeye, which slightly took away from the overall experience. While enjoyable, it lacked the succulence and presence one usually associates with this type of steak. The accompaniments were pleasant and balanced, and the overall presentation was elegant and thoughtful, as expected from a Michelin-listed restaurant. In summary: a refined dining experience with excellent service and ambience, but the steak itself did not fully meet my personal expectations for a “premium” ribeye. Service: excellent Ambience: beautiful Food: good, but not standout

Tried a few appetizers and a couple of mains. The food is good but nothing that stands out. The fish with seaweed rice and the shredded cod fish were both cooked well but lacked flavour. The croquettes of fish were again nothing special. The ox tail meat croquettes were delicious. The cured ham was well cured ham. The service was attentive but not particularly warm or friendly. The ambience was beautiful with a central skylight filtering the evening light into the dining hall. Overall a decent option but not special.

After not being able to get a table the first evening, we booked for the next night. It has to be said, the service varied. After being advised that two, in the party of four wanted soft drinks, the wine arrived for the others, and no order was taken for the drinks. We were then left for about 15 minutes before we were approached by serving staff again. Interestingly they hovered when the bill needed paying. The restaurant felt rather pretentious. Despite booking, we were sat at the chef's table, opposite the kitchen, away from the main quiet area of the restaurant. The food was good. Everyone enjoyed their meal. It was tasty, cooked beautifully and served well. Service could have been better, but food almost made up for it. Most.

Absolutely delightful meal and night. What stood out is the attentiveness and warmness from the service staffs, especially Daniel. He was very friendly throughout, patiently explaining everything and also recommended a good cocktail. The restaurant paid attention to my booking request and arranged a perfect seat for me. Highly recommended for anyone to come, especially for special occasions. Very nice interior and atmosphere.

A beautiful restaurant located in the heart of Porto. The menu had a variety of delicious options to choose from and an extensive drinks menu. Our waiter Daniel was exceptional and took care explaining the food and drinks origin in great detail. He was also extremely knowledgeable about the city and the history of Port. Easily the best waiter I've ever had at a restaurant and a credit to Restaurante real. Every course was a treat! I'd highly recommend this absolute gem of a restaurant!

Great food, good service and very nice atmosphere! We recommend this if you like good food and easy fine dining.

Great evening, good food and fantastic wine. Special thanks to the som for the Port at the end. Grand finale.
