Everything was fresh and flavorful. We actually booked this restaurant last minute on The Fork and there was a 30% discount on the bill, which was automatically honored. No complaints! A great little meal in Porto.

Porto sets a very high bar when it comes to seafood; but the Escama jumped over it by a long way.   The tasting menu, which is all
surprises with the wine  pairing was so well thought out and tasty.  It is expensive at around Euro 90 a head but worth it.

Food overall was amazing.
1. The ceviche with labneh and raspberries was the best one I’ve ever tasted (and I ate a lot of ceviches before). It was the perfect harmony between texture and flavor. Sweet, acidic, soft and crunchy and creamy🤤🤤🤤. It was such a smart move to add the crunchy corn on top. Bravo, chef!!!!
2. I love the cod. However, I was expecting a bit more flavors. The side dish (potatoes and cabbage) didn’t really go that well with the cod imo. I love the flavor of the cabbage though. Smokey and spicey. I wish the cod follow that same flavor profile.
3. For dessert, I got this amazing green apple and lime sorbet on top of chocolate brownie. The sorbet was so good 😍 I would buy that as a dessert alone. Very interesting flavor. However, I don’t think it went well with the brownie. Maybe if you change to orange or orange blossom it would be much better to go with the brownie
Overall, I love the sea menu. I get to try things that I usually don’t go for. Plus, the service is very professional and friendly.
The ambience of the restaurant can be improved. There was no music, and I find it’s too bright for this kind of restaurant. I wish they create a warmer and cozier environment.

An amazing find in Porto, really inspired food and an incredible eye for service. I was dining solo and I felt so so taken care of by the staff.

The food was incredible, I went with the chef's tasting menu and wine pairing and I have zero regrets. The oyster was divine, the ceviche I hoped would never finish. The fish was also incredible - maybe just wished it wasn't a whole fish for one person but I still ate it more than happily.

The wine pairings were really lovely too, I thought it was simple and thoughtful at the same time as these things can often get out of hand.

Just really good food and really good wine in an upscale setting that is not stuffy. If I went back to Porto, this would be my first and last meal for sure.

Had the Chef's recommendation. 4 moments (course) meal. I really enjoyed the meals and I got full. The fish served is not deboned so pay attention.
