I recently had dinner at Restaurante Lareira, a beloved spot in Porto’s Baixa area that’s been serving traditional Portuguese dishes since 1984. From the moment I stepped in, I felt the homely warmth of the place—soft lighting, dark wood accents, and a cozy counter lined with small plates. I started with a plate of picapau, sizzling meat bites with onions and pickles—comforting and full of flavor. Next, I went for bacalhau à brasa: flame-grilled cod served simply with potatoes and vegetables—smoky, tender, and done just right. Their daily special was pork loin with a rich sauce, complemented by crisp fries and a fresh salad on the side. Each dish was hearty, well-seasoned, and felt homemade in the best way. Service was friendly and relaxed—staff made me feel like part of the family, offering suggestions and checking in often without being intrusive. If you’re looking for a no-fuss, traditional Portuguese meal in a warm, neighborhood atmosphere, Lareira is a reliable choice. I’ll be returning for more of their daily specials.
