Cervejaria Heroismo — Restaurant in Porto

I would’ve given 0 stars, if I could.

We ordered our food, while we ordered, the waiter was being extremely overly friendly with our daughter which made her uncomfortable. He brought some bread and butter and said “this is for you till the food comes, from me” we said we didn’t want it, he kept on insisting “it’s from me” At the end all of this was in the bill, even though we had never ordered it..

The food was okay, we’ve had better seafood for a better price. Nothing special for the price. He kept on coming, insisted on serving the food on the plate for the ladies and kept on insisting that we order more, even though we refused multiple times.

At the end, when we wanted to pay, we saw he put the extra things in the bill, while wanting to pay he said “my maths is not very good, how much % is the tip that you give me?” WHAT???

We paid and wanted to leave and he shook hands with everyone by saying thank you and then all of a sudden hugged our daughter? She was uncomfortable, tried to avoid him. And we just left.

Please be careful, the food is mid at best, the service was terrible because of the blatant disregard of uncomfortableness and check the bill! They charge for stuff you never ordered!

Food: Grilled Sea Bass was very good. Watch out for the bones. Seasoning was lig salted and beautifully presented with sautéed vegetables and small yellow potatoes.

Baraga style codfish was served on a plate with homemade fried chips surrounding the codfish topped with sprinklings of cauliflower and carrots. Maybe baragas style codfish is supposed to be bland and tasteless, so it sure how to rate it because I have had codfish from other countries and was very wowed by its flavor. not so much flavor and not so much wow.

The dessert was a baked apple and oh boy, YUMMY. Definitely tasted good.

By the way, I didn’t realize the bread, butter, and water brought to the table was NOT complimentary. Be ready to pay a small fee for it.

SERVICE: 5 stars for our server. He was friendly, attentive, and had a cute sense of humor. He was from Mangola and truly a gem!!! He made our evening the best!

ATMOSPHERE: Traditional Portuguese neighborhood restaurant. Clean, nice and...

I had the pleasure of dining at this fantastic restaurant and I cannot recommend it enough. The portions are incredibly generous, ensuring great value for your money. The food is excellent – every dish we tried was full of flavor and cooked to perfection.

Without a doubt, this place serves the best francesinha in the entire city! The layers of tender meat, the rich sauce, and the perfect blend of flavors made it an unforgettable dish. Additionally, their excellent Porto wine complemented the meal perfectly and enhanced the whole experience.

The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, making you feel at home the moment you walk in. The restaurant is very clean, including the restrooms.

As for the location, it’s hard to beat. Just a short 10-minute walk from the train and bus stations, it’s incredibly convenient for anyone traveling to or from the area.

If you’re looking for a place with exceptional food, wonderful service, and a welcoming atmosphere, this...
