From the moment you arrive you feel welcome and special. The food and service are outstanding. From the scotch egg to perfectly cooked steak it was a very memorable experience. They get very busy and you MUST make reservations at least a couple of weeks in advance to ensure you can get a spot. It is worth going for a great meal with an incredible experience. Make sure you leave room for dessert.

What a find. We made a reservation by phone a day beforehand. Reserving a table is recommended and therefore will avoid disappointment. A small quaint restaurant which adds to the atmosphere along with the front of house who is highly attentive, funny and very welcoming without being over bearing. Service is impeccable which is matched by the good they serve. Meat is high on the agenda here and this is why we went. We went all out for the tomahawk steak at â¬53 and two sides of Vegetables and chorizo rice. We were not disappointed. Most of the dishes are sharing dishes for two and this choice was more than enough for us both. The steak was perfectly seasoned, veg perfect and the rice was beautiful. No room for deserts but others around us had deserts and the looked great. A couple of glasses of port on the house completed a memorable experience in this restaurant. All local restaurants could learn from Bota & Bira. This restaurant may not be large but the customer experience is top of their agenda from the service they provide to the food they serve. Thanks Bota & Bira for providing us with the best meal in Porto.

We had a very good dinner, starting with clumps and typical Portuguese sheep cheese. One of our colleague is vegan and she doesnât find difficulties with the menu, even if it is a steak house, typical Portuguese vegetables were delicious (we ordered a second portion just to make you understand!)Meat was amazing, in particular I recommend the angus one (it is one of the main suggestions in the menu). Wine the same: good and rich choice, we started with a Verde one for the appetizers and then we chosen a red one (see foto) for the meat.Personnel was particularly friendly. We really enjoy our stay.For sure, when I will come back to Porto, I will visit them again!

Turned up at 7 (not before because they are closed and it would be ridiculous to expect them to open just for you) we were politely seen to a lovely table, brought two amazing apéritifs which were on the house! Then we had the lomo which was absolutely amazing, one of the best steaks Iâve ever had. Prices are wonderful, staff are professional, will try and visit again before our holiday is over! Oh and the atmosphere in the restaurant was gorgeous! Thank you.
