I shared a dourada and grilled prawns as a started with my friend. There was no waiting time, service was fast and polite. It was one definitely one of the best grilled white fish which we had. From atmosphere it was clearly more local than tourists place. Definitely returning there.
A great, tiny, neighborhood seafood restaurant, like many nearby, cooking your fish to order on charcoal grill along the street. Service was good , the Sea Bass was very good, served as a half fish, with small boiled, buttery potatoes and a basket of bread. There are a few house wines to accompany your meal.
I was dining at "Tasca 7 Vidas" last night, and it was an absolutely delightful experience. The atmosphere was warm and inviting even if informal, making it the perfect setting for an enjoyable evening. The traditional cuisine was exquisite, with every dish bursting with flavor. I particularly enjoyed the octopus and baby cuttlefish, both of which were incredibly tasty and cooked to perfection. The staff were exceptionally welcoming and attentive, adding to the overall wonderful experience. I highly recommend to anyone. Xiripiti to try absolutely.
Authentic local food. Here, you will taste authentic Portuguese seafood and experience a friendly atmosphere. We really enjoyed the salmon!
Very friendly atmosphere. There were eight of us. The owner offered us grilled fish platters to share: calamari, sardines, and 1 kg fresh fish. Everything was excellent. The potatoes served with them were excellent.
This is the sort of hidden gem restaurant you travel across the world and come to Porto to find. Greeted by the smell of a coal fire and sea food down the street, the service is warm and folksy and it has a family feel. The sea food is tremendous and I had a huge steak with cream sauce and fries, copious amounts of wine and a lovely evening.
It was small but nice fish restaurant. The salmon and the potatoes were delicious. The staff was helpful and the prices were reasonable.
