A great pizzeria, with super friendly service from the very first moment. David, the owner, is charming and makes you feel at home. If you have celiac disease or an egg allergy, this is an ideal place: they have many gluten-free and egg-free options that are safe and delicious.

Ingredients were good quality and price was reasonable, but ordering was a nightmare and despite getting a market plate and an extra side, I left still hungry.
I asked whether the chicken dish I ordered was gluten free and was told yes, but it arrived covered in breadcrumbs.
Additionally, I was brought the wrong order twice before they got it right, including the second time where they added bread despite me clearly asking for the salad because it was gluten free.
Others with allergens here should keep in mind that although some other allergens are labeled clearly, gluten is not.

Had a lovely meal here. Great for gluten fee, knowledgeable friendly staff, menu clearly labelled and staff confirmed all orders to be sure all gluten free. Had the mozzarella salad, delicious squid and amazing duck risotto.
Very small resturant on the water front. Seating outside with about 5 tables for 2 inside.
I emailed them about my allergies and about cross contamination and they emailed back "Hi Paulina,
We do have a gluten free menu.
When you visit us, please inform the server of all your allergies, our staff will certainly provide you a meal free of allergens.
Check attached our full menu allergens for your consideration prior to your visit.
Thanks"
A lovely family owned restaurant. The food was great, and the owners were so lovely and accommodating as we had no reservation and got a table quite late. They had a separate gluten free menu too which was great for my friend. They made it a great experience for us. I’ll be thinking about the chocolate dream cake for a long time!
Great resturant. Limited gluten free choices but all labelled, knowledge and friendly staff well informed on cross contamination.
Non GF food all looked great.
We had tortilla, veal capaccio and prawn risotto. All delicious.
Great setting with a good vibe in the main railway station.
Booking required as constantly busy.
Fantastic food & quality! (tuna tacos are simply AMAZING!). Tasty gluten free beer. Super efficient & friendly servers. One of the best places to eat in Porto!
Very nice place! They accommodated my food allergies and intolerances. They were very kind about this. If you have a gluten / dairy allergy, let them know.
It is a spectacular place to eat and have a great time with family or friends.
The food is great and as far as allergens are concerned there is nothing to worry about.
As for the waiters, they are all charming, especially a boy with glasses who brought me a complimentary gluten-free skewer because he had heard that I have celiac disease. Unfortunately, not understanding Portuguese well, I understood that he had made a mistake and I rejected it. Thank you very much anyway, if I have the chance, I will try all the delicious gluten-free skewers again. A kiss❤️❤️❤️
Lee was able to answer all our questions around gluten intolerance. She was a wonderful host who knows her job well. The food had excellent flavours and the meal size very good. Would happily visit again for a meal and recommend Thailander to all that have not been there yet.
Amazing! Best gluten free pizza I’ve ever had in my life!!!(you have to advise them 24 hours in advance for the GF dough) The non-gluten free pizzas are also very very good! Staff is very helpful and funny. I will come back here for sure!
Super delicious food and superb service. The waiters couldn't be nicer or more attentive. They adapt almost everything to gluten-free. Highly recommended.
Great, fun casual dinner place.
Gluten and Allergy aware with staff that goes out of their way to help (Thanks Rose !)
Food was amazing and portion size crazy large.
Will be back!
Gorgeous building and super quick service. My friend is gluten free and received a yummy gluten free burger. Vegetarian burger was good too. Would come again.
The food and service were beyond exceptional. From the start to the finish, it was just a pleasure to be there. My fiancé is celiac and they made sure on each level that everything she had was gluten free. If you are visiting Porto, highly recommend coming here. Yes, it is pricey compared to other restaurants but that is expected when you go for a fine dining. Will come back next time we travel to Porto. Huge shoutout to the staff🙏🏽

We stumbled upon this wonderful venue to escape the rain. Then we were enchanted. We enjoyed an excellent wine tasting and made some great friends with other guests. When we asked about a celiac-friendly restaurant, we were promptly invited to the restaurant at the back of the shop. We could hardly believe the dreamy ambiance that awaited us. This was followed by an unforgettable dinner with wine pairing. When we left the venue several hours later, it was still raining, but our mood couldn't have been better. We left slightly tipsy and with our stomachs full of delicious food. A very special thank you goes to the entire service team. We haven't experienced such excellent, attentive, and friendly service in a long time. We will definitely be back.
I emailed them about my allergies and about cross contamination and they emailed back " Hello Paulina! Thank you for your contact. Even though we offer gluten free options, it’s important to mention that any restaurant that prepares its dishes in the same kitchen as others with gluten has an obligation to warn of the possibility of having allergenic traces. Our team is extremely careful, but since our dishes are all made in the same kitchen that already implies a risk of cross contamination, even if it’s a small one. That’s why we understand it’s extremely important to warn all of our guests, so they are aware of the conditions we work in and then they take the decision of visiting us, or not. Specially because we do not have a separate kitchen, fridge, utensils and instruments to cook the gluten free dishes. Thank you, the Boa-Bao team"

This is a very small restaurant run by a chef and a hostess/server with excellent tapas style food. We had an amazing experience here and some of the best salmon poke and tuna we've had. I am gluten free and although they don't have a dedicated Gf kitchen space or gf bread, we were seated at the counter when we could see the chef prepare the food and he was very careful about preparation. You could tell that he is well organized and always prepares food with care and it was not just because we could see him. Because it is a small restaurant, nothing is fast, but it's totally worth the wait.

Hi nice place in city center specially for sea food lover , ala carte or chiefs menu both option are great , staff very friendly and accommodating dietary option like gluten free .
A spectacular place to eat.
We made a reservation at 12 to eat at 1:30 p.m. as it is a busy place.
A menu with many options for celiacs and prices that (from my point of view) are quite justified (without being super high prices).
Enjoyed a delicious meal here. Needed some gluten free options, and the staff were very helpful.
Great friendly service from Fernando.
The food was superb.
If you are around this way, I recommend this restaurant.
The staff is extremely friendly and I think the food would have been ok. I asked to confirm what was gluten free. The cook said I could have the hake it came out without any seasoning at all. Bland and a bit over cooked. My friend fish was delicious tho
Staff recommended octopus and it was absolutely delicious! Most items on the menu can be made gluten free. Great location to sit outside and enjoy a view of the local buildings.
One of the best restaurant meals I've ever had! Came with a friend on our first night in porto, amazing food, delicious wine, fantastic service and great fancy atmosphere all at an amazing price. Good Gluten Free options as well. 1000% recommended!
Incredible taste experience! The waitress is super nice, the dishes are tasty - balanced - varied, the prices are extremely reasonable for clearly satisfying quantities, all vegan and gluten-free! A delight and incomparable kindness! To try if you go to the Bolhao covered market.
My wife has to eat a strict gluten-free diet. No problem at all! Separate dips and freshly baked gluten-free bread. Our waiter also has a large selection and expertise for the main courses (we note that fries are not an option, as the deep fryer is also used for products containing gluten).
The dishes we had sashimi, steak and sushi were all highly recommended.
Gladly again!
If possible we would give 6 stars.
Best meal we had in a while! They did gluten free adapted meal on request: I was ensured they used a fresh pan and utensils to avoid cross contamination.
Try the white sangria and the chocolate mousse (!).
From the moment we arrived, we were greeted, seated and served with what appeared to be an effortless perfection.
With each course and wine on our tasting menu and wine flight, the team of 3 gentlemen presented and articulated the offering with expert knowledge, and genuine, personable humour.
What appeared to be effortlessly perfect service was almost certainly a potent mix of talent, passion and a tireless pursuit of perfection.
As for the food. Simply put, it was the finest meal I've experienced. From the delicate Cardinal Shrimp, to the culinary explosion of the Fois Grois 2.0. The only negative I have about the evening was that it sadly had to come to an end.
I should also mention that my partner who I dined with was a coeliac, and they happily modified the menu where necessary to give her the full experience on offer.
Excellent food service and atmosphere. My spouse is celiac and must eat gluten free…they were knowledgeable about this topic and were able to provide many options. Overall we had an excellent experience and highly recommend!
Amazing and relaxing restaurant in Gaia district. My friend is gluten free and vegetarian so the kind staff really helped her to find the best dish. The quality was great and fair price. For sure we’ll come back
I loved this restaurant. The place is nice it has atmosphere. I like the name, seems like funny guys own it. The food was great. I asked for gluten free shrimps as starter, steak with potatoes. They had also dessert, chocolate musse. Service is very nice, speak a little english, but they have english menu and also menu in some other languages. The food was excellent hence I give 5 stars.
Great restaurant in Porto. We enjoyed our meal. Every dish we ordered was delicious. They were also very knowledgeable about gluten free, as one of our family members has Celiac. The server was also lovely and brought a desert with a little candle in it to celebrate my daughter’s birthday. It was so sweet and much appreciated. We saw people turned away because they were so busy, so reservations are recommended.
Celiac friendly
