Why Travelers Love Muro do
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
Love this restaurant with friendly servers and good portuguese fushion food. We usually would not go for these type of food but we were pleasantly surprised with all their dishes. The grilled cuttlefish and the sauce was refreshing, the beef stew was amazing and their pork was also very nice so was the duck rice. The price is also very reasonable for the quality of food. We didn’t mind sitting outside but i suppose what i didn’t like was smoking was allowed out doors and my mom had to endure that the whole time. Very delicious experience. We came to a more well known restaurant in the area and it was too busy, and found this gem. We sat river side at night, and it was beautiful. The food was great quality and were explained we should get a few plates as the restaurants intent was for sharing. It got busier halfway through our dining and we noticed service slowing a little bit, but what else can you expect when it gets busy. The beef strew was so good with the white bread they provided. We were recommended to come here by a friend and were not disappointed. Service was quick. Great view. We sat outside even though the weather was not great. We had the mushrooms, fresh cod, sweet potatoes & lettuce hearts. Followed by the yolk pudding and banana cake. All were beautifully presented and delicious. We also had a bottle of the Vinho Verde. Would thoroughly recommend a visit.

Ordered the grilled cuttlefish, cod with yolk sauce. Found both of them really nice. Nice seasoning, nice flavours and good portion. The servers were really friendly and gave good recommendations. The sea salt ice cream is a must dessert

We had a wonderful meal at Muro do Bacalhau. We ordered grilled cuttlefish, fresh codfish, fried sweet potato, chocolate mousse with ice cream, and a glass of Verde wine. Everything was absolutely delicious - especially the grilled cuttlefish, which was perfectly cooked and so flavorful. We enjoyed almost every bite. The only thing we left unfinished was the chocolate cake, which was a little too sweet for our taste, but still well made. Overall, it was a memorable dining experience, and we would happily come back again.
