S. Gião in Guimarães is a culinary masterpiece! This exceptional restaurant exceeded our expectations in every way. The pasta with shrimps was cooked to perfection, with succulent shrimp and a flavorful sauce. The tiramisu was creamy and divine, and the mushrooms were tender and expertly prepared. But the real surprise was the Smashed Eggs in appetizers - a game-changer!
Every single dish was top-notch, with fresh ingredients, precise technique, and presentation that was almost too beautiful to eat. Almost.
The service was attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere that made us feel right at home.
S. Gião is a must-visit for anyone in Guimarães looking for an exceptional dining experience. Don't miss out on their outstanding pasta, tiramisu, mushrooms, and Smashed Eggs - your taste buds will thank you!
