This is a great restaurant for some typical dishes and tasty food, the Sangria is also pretty good. Great for a chill evening with friends. The prices are pretty affordable all around. Should run more than €30/person.

This is, hands down, the best local food you'll ever eat in Porto, this small 6 table restaurant, is a hidden gem that only locals will tell you about. It only opens it's doors on the weekends, and be sure to get a reservation! If value the gastronomic experience rather than the fancy environment, you will not be disappointed.

If you're tired of Portuguese food and fancy some Spanish tapas, Beher could be a great option. As someone who has lived in Madrid for 2 years, you won't find better Spanish food in Porto.

If you want to eat some very typical fish dishes, this is a favorite of mine, it's on the cheaper side and the fish is very good. There are a lot of restaurants in this area, and you can choose any other one close by if this one is full.
