Restaurante Maria Rita

Disappointing, expensive and a "tourist trap". We didn't like the famous house cod: too much of everything. For gluten free...stay away, they don't understand anything. Our experience was not positive

We were recommended to come here and we were so glad we did. Of course we had to try their house speciality which they claim is the best Cod fish in the whole of Porto and although of course I haven't tried them all, I can attest to the fact that it was a superb dish. The sharer portion is very good value for money. If you're not a bone fan though, I wouldn't recommend it as it is cooked on the bone, although the waiter very kindly served us making sure there was no bone on our plate. Desert is a good selection. However, it is all based around gluten if that's a problem. We chose the Pumpkin pie but as they had no cream we took it away, bought cream and heated it at home in the oven and have to say after this it was 100x better than cold so they could think about this an option when they serve desert perhaps? Service was super friendly and the place has a cozy atmosphere.
