During the three weeks I've spent in Portugal over the last two months, there is one restaurant that I've now visited five times. The wine list is one of the very best in all of Northern Portugal. The quality of the food and ingredients, not to mention the presentations of every dish ... is impeccable. That would normally be enough to get me to return for another go round. But every bit as good as the food and wine ... is the seamless, nearly invisible service which happens in such a way that the restaurant reaches a level that very few ever can. If you are visiting Porto, you must check out the restaurant which has it all, including amazing ambience where it not only looks beautiful, but you can hear yourself talk. I love this place:

Re: Porto Restaurant Discovery
This is my favorite restaurant in Porto! Love the dishes and the special ingredients (DOP meats and Cheeses). And the wine list! The olive oil was from Pintas! (Wine & Soul)
