Tired of Spanish cuisine? Try Portuguese dishes at Oporto Restaurante.

If you're in Barcelona and have had enough of Spanish food, why not change things up and try some Portuguese cuisine? Oporto Restaurante is a great choice. Portuguese dishes are known for their seafood, and the Mediterranean-style cooking offers a lighter, fresher taste compared to the richer flavors of Spanish cuisine. Oporto Restaurante is not far from the Sagrada Familia, making it a perfect spot for lunch after your visit. The restaurant is decorated with many Portuguese elements, such as wine, the Portuguese flag, and painted tiles, but the most eye-catching feature is the wall full of wine bottles. We ordered the codfish and steak rice. The codfish is first steamed and then pan-fried, making it juicy and tender, served with the rare addition of straw mushrooms. The steak is a safe bet, accompanied by Portuguese-style wavy fries, greens, and a sunny-side-up egg, all served with rice. We finished our meal with a lemon beer.
