Puro 4050

Ribeira


This chic Mediterranean-style restaurant and mozzarella bar is located in Porto’s swanky dining precinct, and as a high ranker in the popularity stakes it usually requires prebooking. Bring your buddies along, as the menu is perfect for sharing.

Choose from hot and cold options such as octopus and chestnut risotto or beef tataki, and wash it down with a bottle of Portuguese wine. The whole place is decked out with subtle references to birds and insects: arachnophobes be warned.
