Mirarcos cafe — Restaurant in Porto

My wife and I were recently in Porto and after descending along the winding street from a rooftop bar, we found our selves "lost" with little time to spare before our boat was set to sail. We came into this small homey restaurant and asked if they could call us a taxi. The were very helpful and did so right away. When the taxi arrived I took a moment and went back inside to thank the lady again and give her a tip for being so helpful. On the way out, a man observing (perhaps an owner) shook my hand for being kind to the lady. I wish we could have eaten there that night. They were so nice. We'll be back in Porto one day and will seek them out and see if their food is as good as their kind personalities. I'm sure it will be. Thank you to the folks at...

Wouldn't recommend this place at all, unless you're looking for some cheap beers in the shade...

Then she brings us the cutlery and none of it looked clean - I actually wiped it with an antibac wipe and my sister made a joke that we will pay for this decision later (luckily nobody was sick). I reckon most of the menu is cooked in the morning and then served throughout the day, as some of our food was cold when served (we had the cod pastries elswhere as well and they were served warm/hot).
