Porto Restaurant

Have you been to Porto? I know of 5 people who have been there (not together) and each had the same opinions. All said that the service was terrible, the attitude of the staff obnoxious and the food was not up to par. One friend said that they were the only patrons there and the kitchen got the order wrong. The food was cold and not very good. Another friend pretty much said the same things. Another said there were more people working there than people eating.
The interesting thing is that the owner (Carlos) was on of the partners in solar do Minho, so he should have a great deal of restaurant experience.

I’ll be interested to see what you have to say about the place. I hope you find time to review it.

I loved the previous restaurant that was in that space. Le Prete was always first class. I just feel that their prices were too high for the area.
Let’s see how long Porto lasts there.
