Restaurants in Porto

[Marco D.]

I will be in Porto in June and was looking for good, inexpensive, family-friendly restaurants. Hopefully looking for a good place for Leitao. I will be getting a Francesinha fix at BufeteFase, so no need to mention that one.

It would be nice to dine near the Cais, but when I was there last, it did seem loaded with a lot of tourist traps.

So... any favorites?

Since you said "inexpensive, family-friendly ..." that rules out a bunch of the places I was going to recommend. So I'm going to take a different tack. I'm now Facebook friends with a bunch of people in Porto, and I've started following places they sometimes go to figure out if perhaps I should go there too. I can't say I've been to any of these, but at least some of the locals have been, so perhaps they are at least worth considering:

Thanks Eric... I looked through the archives and there are a number of recommendations for more upscale places, so I though a list of more budget-friendly recommendations might be helpful.

A couple of years ago there was an article in a FTLOP Newsletter asking many port personalities which Porto restaurants they preferred.
I looked through this article and found Adega Sao Nicolau in the Ribeira District.
Had dinner there Wednesday 44th May and it can be highklt recommended.
Wine list had generally a high level, while on the ports there are rooms for improvements,
Appeared to be very popular and you must book at lest one day on beforehand, preferably longer.
We sat inside and that was nice.
