Porto’s best dinner experiences center on the grand Avenida dos Aliados, the city’s elegant main boulevard. The standout choice is the Evening Fado & Food Tour, which smartly combines Portugal’s soulful folk music with regional cooking. For about €65, you get a full meal featuring Porto’s specialties, intimate Fado performances, and commentary that puts it all in context. The small-group format (maximum 12 people) keeps things cozy and personal.
We especially love Casa do Fado’s dinner show – they serve excellent bacalhau (salt cod) and vinho verde while featuring some of Porto’s best Fado singers. For a more upscale option, the Porto Highlights & Dinner Tour includes stops at historic cafes before ending with a traditional meal at Café Guarany, an Art Deco gem.
