Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Nice neighbourhood restaurant, not sure I’d go as far as all the glowing reviews I’ve read. The food is good however the deserts are better. We had the fish soup which was nice and the sea bass for a main. Again nice, but not stop...you in your tracks nice. Unfortunately nothing was outrageously good! Read a few reviews about the service and again it was just average. Nothing bad but not amazing.More

A very warm welcome and explanation by our server Yugo (all the staff are friendly). We loved our meal, steaks were the star. Lovely rose wine. Interstellar dessert was an experience! In all, delicious, surprising and enjoyable. Very much recommended. Thank you!

First the service... As others have said, our waiter Joao sat next to us, asked our names and was very helpful, but then didn't talk to us the rest of the night! Don't get me wrong, all the other staff were wonderful, and in particular...the lady at the bar who served our wine and helped with choosing a Port to go with dessert (didn't catch her name but she was greeting guests and answering the phone too). Really fun, friendly and helpful service. But just strange that Joao asked our names, gave the impression he would provide personal service all night, but then didn't speak to us at all for the rest of the evening. This kind of ruined what was otherwise a perfect experience and there was no point asking our names and acting as if it was going to be a really personal experience when it was clearly just an act from Joao. The food was excellent. The mushroom starter had so many flavours, all perfectly complimenting each other. We then had the ribeye steak with veg and sweet potato sides. The steak was excellent. For dessert we shared the Citron which was perfectly matched with a white Port wine. Delicious and great presentation. I'd definitely recommend eating here but the management may want to think about this supposedly personal approach to service. If your waiter doesn't actually follow through on it then it's just a gimmick that detracts from the otherwise excellent service and food. I've had better and more personal service in other Porto restaurants where they don't ask our names and don't sit down beside us, but actually take the time and care to have the same person serving you all evening.More

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING! One of our best meals in Portugal! Service was absolutely fabulous, the cocktails were amazing, all the food was great! Octopus was good but definitely salty so if that is an issue for you, you might want to order something else....Truly one of our best meals of the trip!More

Smallish modern and warm restaurant. Extremely welcoming staff. Waiters will even plop themselves down in the banquette next to you to talk about the menu. The mushroom and tartare starters were more than enough for both of us. We did order the 75 Euro octopus...which was as big as a dinner plate and presented whole (which might be daunting for some!) and delicious as it was perfectly cooked. The margin on that creature must be impressive!More

Tasco was one of the best customer service restaurants I have ever had. We were visiting from the states and booked this reservation well in advance. Unfortunately my girlfriend got sick the night before from food she ate elsewhere and we were unable to make...our reservation. I walked in to let the Tasco team we had to cancel and they said no worries, made me a speciality drink and let me taste an appetizer. We made it a point to go two nights later for drinks and snacks and the team remembered us. They even came up with espresso martinis and dropped espresso beans around us as a small gesture to end our trip of right. Jaoa and Tiago were the two guys that provided some of the best customer I’ve ever heard. I’ve already recommended Tasco to people who are traveling to Porto soon. I look forward to going back and hopefully the same team is working.More

All the things others have said on this site are true and accurate. To add to them, this restaurant was one of the best we dined in during our stay in Portugal. The room is cozy, and the staff is beyond exceptional. So knowledgeable and...helpful with suggestions. Signature cocktails of which there are many, were creative, delicious, and made choosing which one to sample a tough decision. Food was beyond delicious, made with care and attention to detail and creativity. We chose the fish soup, Sashimi, and and tiger prawns to share. Portions are big and meant to be shared . Outstanding! We capped off the night with a 50 year old tawny port. Wow! A big shout out to Anna, João, and The hostess, Anna. Thanks for a wonderful, memorable evening.More

Based on the reviews and cost, my wife and I expected an excellent meal. To our surprise, we were treated to one of the greatest dining experiences we have ever had. Our server, Anne Catherine, introduced herself and sat down with us, explaining the menu....She was attentive throughout the meal, as was all the staff. With her advice, we chose to share the sea bass, sweet potatoes, and roast vegetables. All were cooked to perfection. Wine and drinks was paired beautifully. For dessert, we had the citrus surprise, which looked like a lemon, but exploded with amazing citrus flavors when she struck it with a spoon. Everything was fantastic. What set our experience apart was the joy and love poured into our meal, from all the staff to the 28 and 26 year old talented chefs. Everyone cared; they were proud of their work; they took service to the highest possible level. Guests beside us (a Scottish couple and another from Australia) were similarly delighted with their different selections of meat and praws. Every once in a while, you have an experience that sets the standard. For us, our meal at Tasco was such a moment. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We are sad to be leaving Porto. We look forward to returning!More

I agree with the previous answer, that there wasn’t a specific childrens menu. However the service was excellent and I’m sure they’d be able to accommodate your younger child’s requirements. Enjoy your meal!
