Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside. Yummy waffles cooked to perfection, a scoop of ice-cream, strawberries & earl grey caramel sauce. Couldn't get any of the earl grey in this tho. Might have been overpowered by the caramel. A nice dessert to satisfy the sweet tooth.
A nice blanket of grated Parmesan atop golden fries. The hint of truffle was abit light on this. Would've been better if it was stronger but otherwise, a great sharing snack to go with your coffee.
Pasta in herbed cream sauce with a mix of portobello & Swiss mushrooms, sautéed onions & a generous blanket of grated Parmesan cheese. Very prominent mushroom flavors, rather heavy due to the cream sauce but a generous serving that might do well shared among 2 pax!
Plump mussels served in a nice broth of coconut, lemongrass, blue ginger & ale, coupled with 2 slices of sourdough. I really liked the Thai-inspired flavors of this dish! The lemongrass really kicked in & made the broth a lot more dynamic. If you like Thai food, you'll definitely dig this! Wipe the bowl clean w the sourdoughs or soak up the broth like a sponge. Very addictive & abit heartbreaking when it's all gone.
Deep fried soft shell crab sandwiched in nice soft brioche buns, along with a refreshing mango-pomegranate salsa, arugula & slaw. This dish came w a side of crispy, fluffy curly fries! Who doesn't love curly fries? This is such a great pairing & makes for a very hearty lunch/dinner! Love the sweet-savory flavors & the tropical colors in this plate. 🦀
I nearly died 😳 How absolutely friggin' cuteeee is diz packaging?!? Gah. As if their white cold brew label wasn't cute enough, now we have the astronaut holding a green Japanese fan. I died. 💚💚 Likewise from their white cold brew, the Matcha Warrior did not disappoint! 👍🏻 Do note to give the bottle a good round of shakes before consuming so the milk & matcha are well mixed. 🍵 The matcha flavors were very prominent & not overly sweetened!
A well-brewed cup of columbian! Medium body with mellow acidity, . Not only is the coffee here great, so is the presentation. Love the beautiful choice of glassware. Definitely another great spot in this hood ☕️
We went for Lemon & Herb for the flame grilled Portuguese chicken. Meat was ridiculously tender and has the smokey flavors of the grill. However, the chicken was way overly salty. Not sure what attributed to the high sodium, if it was the sauce or something else that they seasoned the meat with but definitely get some rice or chips to help lessen the blow. A drink would be great to wash it all down as well.
The patty here at Oporto is more on the thin side so I suggest going for a double if you'd like a better meat to bun ratio! 🍔 Tender chicken fillets w lettuce, cheese, creamy mayo & Oporto's original chilli sauce. This was a rather satisfying burger for it's price. Waiting time was short too, for a full house. The chicken fillet seemed to be lightly seasoned and relied quite abit on the sauces for flavor. With the combination of a soft bun & tender chicken, this burger is quite delicate. Would have personally preferred if there was a firm element (bun or patty) for more depth.
Taça is Portuguese for bowl & this grilled chicken rice bowl was absolutely delicious & satisfying! Customizable by choosing your own choice of sauce (Original Chilli, Lemon & Herb, Garlic Sauce, Mayo Sauce, Prego Sauce & BBQ Sauce). I went for the spicy tangy Original Chilli which brought a great heat & went really well w their flavored rice & grilled, juicy chicken chunks. The bowl even came w a side of crunchy lettuce for a nice refreshing element! A hearty bowl that's perfect for 1.
Lightly seasoned, these golden shoe string fries make the perfect beer snack! ✨
This beef stew leaves nothing to the imagination as it came just as it is. Almost tender beef cubes in flavorful stew. Hmm as stated in the menu, it was meant to be served with "Cheese Soldiers" but what came with it was just a generic round garlic bread (?) — though it was nicely toasted & fluffy, it seemed to be missing the cheese. For $18, seems a tad steep & one dimensional for what was served.
