I am a local and until yesterday a regular customer. As always I chose the pork cheek. The meat was badly defrosted, cold with too much fat in it. It’s expensive for Portuguese standards, not a problem if the quality is there. Unfortunately never again...and to you all planning to visit, careful with the pork cheeks.More

Picked this restaurant for my last night in Porto as I liked the sound of the different menus. The waiter was amazing, very attentive and helpful and we had a great chat about Porto and what I'd been up to while I was here. The...whole meal was a delight but I especially recommend the duck leg, so crispy yet tender and the sticky sauce was perfect. Also had the aded bonus of being literally round the corner from my hotel which was great, nice and easy to roll back after such a filling meal!More

This isn't your typical restaurant! There are three menus, one which is the most adventurous, another which is the middle-adventurous, and the last page is for those who want more traditional Portuguese cuisine. My boyfriend had the steak tartare which he said was the best...steak tartare he had ever had (and it's once of his favorite dishes). Our waiter Vinicius was very helpful in choosing a delicious wine that suited our palette. Highly recommended, we will come back!More

The food was just amazing, I was unsure about going thinking it was to posh or I would get a fanfair for a slice of rabbit but how wrong I was. The food was brilliant, some nice drinks and the staff are so friendly. Don’t...miss out on this. There are three menus, which can be switched between for each course. If they still have it you must try the cappacio which is just a tastebud experience.More

I have to be honest the food was amazing the mushroom risotto and the duck was gorgeous. But the service left a sour taste that may have ruined the experience. From waiting for menus from 10 minutes and then an hour between starters and mains...with the plates from the starter still on the table and the same again with our dinner tainted what would have been a lovely meal. We all know that covid affected the service industry and there was a huge efflux of previously well trained staff however I'd recommend the place for the food but bring your patience if you are attending.More

Oh my - an abject study in style over substance! Firstly - the food is fine. It's OK. Some very pleasantand nothing toxic. But if you study the menu you'll be in for a very rude awakening as for all the hyperbole - it's just...fairly average tapas. Not one dish stood out. Where truffles were adorned; you couldn't taste them. One week on and I couldn't remember a single dish we had. Just pleasant average. Not expensive so no rip-off except for the fact you'll have expected this dining explosion and it's just simply - okMore

I was recommended this restaurant by my hotel and I was not disappointed. As a matter of fact I went for lucnh and it was so good I came back for dinner. You have 3 menues to choose from: experimenterial, moderate experimenterial and traditional. I...opted for the experimenterial one. The food was very good and very exiting. My best dishes very tempura from cocochas, wonton with salmon and the mushroom risotto. Actually the ristotto were made with "magic mushrooms" that were "alive" when served. All dishes were very well made. I also enjoyed an excellent albarinho green wine. The service were very friendly. New favorite place I will definitely come back to.More

My family and I had dinner at Cruel last night (April) the concept is interesting. 3 menus: adventurous food to standard fair. We ate a mix of all three menus. Some great some OK Desserts were the weak point of the menu. overall though it...was solid and worth a visitMore

The dishes are incredibly well-thought-out, both in flavour and creativeness. The portions are also very, very generous (which I loved). And the staff is just nice, we arrived near closing time and they still gave it their all. Certainly to repeat!

We went for dinner to this place. You need to book in advance. The waiters are nice and helpful, the menu is only in Portuguese. The concept is interesting: three types of menus but you can mix them: a "wild" and extraordinary one, medium wild...and "normal" or classic. We took the hummus and duck as a starter - both were great. Then I had the risotto which actually looks crazier than it tastes. The portions are huge, I think we would have been fine if we just ordered the risotto. My husband asked for wine recommendations, but the red wine that was recommended with the main dish was quite bad. All in all, I think it sounds more interesting and exotic than it actually is. Not bad really, but I think you can find better places.More

I was looking forwards to visit this restaurant for a while now. However, the experience was not better then average. The star dish of this restaurant must be the risotto because of the moving mushrooms, the rest of the food quality is the same as...homemade or worst. We’re weren’t told about the electric flower. We were 4 people shared one starter and one desert and paid 100€ for the meal.More

This restaurant is an experience. The concept with 3 segments of dishes from experimental to traditional was a home run for us. The prices are above average but it’s worth it.
