Oporto Cafe

I give 4.5 stars, round up to five. Food: mostly fantastic. Seafood chowder was one of the best I've ever had. Short ribs in red wine sauce was incredible. Garlic shrimp and fried cod was outstanding. Appetizers were great, we had a variety. The only dish that was underwhelming was the Bacalao Gomes de Sa. It was a bit bland, this is why I minus half a star. Drinks were good and well priced, we had a lot of the Portuguese green wine and some Portuguese beers. The service was attentive and polite. I would definitely return and recommend to others.

Went for a large party for a graduation lunch. The bacalao fritters and smoked sausages were very good. The cod a porto was delicious. The sauce was just sweet enough and the light breading on the fish stayed crispy. Not to mention the brick of codfish was enormous and firm, truly an amazing piece of cod. The seafood soup was probably the best tasting dish, reminiscent of a Thai seafood soup with citrus and green onion. The vino verde was tasty and well priced but wish there was more of a Portuguese beer selection. Bacalhau a Gomes de Sa - very disappointing and not very flavorful despite the description. A few people ordered it and it was just too bland. The shortribs were spectacular and the desserts were amazing; service was excellent as well. Overall a very good time at Oporto and would love to come back if I'm in the neighborhood.

My first time at Oporto was a real trip of flavors to Portugal . This small Portuguese restaurant decorated perfect with their concept, a traditional and family owned, where the owners are the chefs and tell a story behind each plate description. Today I tried the Vino Verde (green wine) original from Portugal is not green just has less alcohol and is a little bit on the sparkling side, it was perfect Then I tried Tapas de chefe that has a great combination of different Portuguese creations like Chorizo portugués, Codfish croquettes, shrimp al ajo and salad everything in this platter is delicious and is a must as appetizer. Since I was by myself I couldn't try anything else but dessert hahahahaha Pastel de Nata I can't tell enough how good this is, crunchy, smooth and perfectly sweetened. Service was outstanding!!!

This restaurant has great food. I was super pleased with the cod croquetes. The cod a porto was delicious as well as the salad. The Portuguese wine was not expensive but was great, and the dessert Delicias de Manuela and Pasteis de Nata were delicious. The service was attentive. I only missed the fado and Brazilian music in the background that could have enhanced the ambience. If you want great Portuguese food, this is the place.
