Great food, one of the best if not the best meal I had in Porto. We had the bacalau zé Bota so good and a huge portion 3 people and we didn't eat it all. The sangria was fantastic and the staff very friendly. Made reservations via Google chat and they were very responsive and made it very easy. But be warned it is on a narrow alley behind all the other restaurants so it is a little tricky to find.

Excellent service, the best octopus I’ve ever had! The wine selection was outstanding and perfectly complemented the meal, and they even offered free refills of our glasses of wine! The staff is very friendly. Highly recommend!

Delicious food! We had the fish with risotto and the veal with vegetables. The owners were very friendly and recommended a great bottle of wine for our meal. Classy atmosphere, and good prices for the quality.

Found this while having a beer around the corner, they took 2 of us with no reservation. Really nice service and a nice selection of wines. Food menu is small but tasty. Watercress cake for dessert was so good. Would recommend definitely

Ze Boat is a lovely small restaurant. We were the only foreigners in the place. The food was delicious and the service was wonderful! I loved seeing the delight of our waitress as she saw us enjoy our meal.

Probably our best overall meal in Portugal. Service was excellent, wine and food recommendations spot on. The veal was amazing, the black Iberian pork so full of flavour, and the Banoffee pie classically delicious

Small place with seating inside on a small alley street. Only 2 seatings a night it seems. We got a 9 pm reservation. We ordered the quail eggs in green sauce which were excellent...best green sauce in Portugal so far. The fried shrimp is great with the sweet and sour dipping sauce. As well as the traditional sausage with gardenia....real nice. We had the baked cod in corn bread and the Iberian black pork dinners. The cod was cooked perfectly and the pork as well, with a slight smokey , juicy yet tender feel. Very nice. Very nice meal all around...i would definitely recommend it to anyone when in Porto.
