Café Casa da Musica — Restaurant in Porto

The restaurant is big and feels empty, cold and lacking warmth. There is no view to outside except for a big roof window... The prices are a bit extravagant for the food and service you get. Waiters do not know information about the food served and it seems they do not have a lot of experience or training. The food is average to low quality.

By the way, the concert, comprising Mozart piano concerto No 20 and Beethoven piano concerto No 3 received a standing ovation at the finish from a full house (socially distanced every...

No doubt one of the best atmospheres in town. The vibrant music scene, the students, the skaters, the bookworms, old ladies with their friends. All crowds gather in this lovely cafe. Featuring both high tables, regular tables and and outside shaded patio, Casa Da Música cafe doesn't offer table service. Regardless the attendants are always nice, polite and willing to help. Food is very good and well priced. Great for brunches, lunches or your average mid afternoon snack. Later in the afternoon it will usually feature...
