What people say, in short
Oporto draws consistent praise for Portuguese and Mediterranean cooking, with diners singling out the paella, mussels and octopus. One regular goes often, finding it budget-friendly with good service, drinks and food, and another says the octopus is the best they have had anywhere, cooked well on every visit. Two diners describe the food as special or amazing, and one calls it hard to beat for Portuguese food.
