Greetings!

I'm looking for a place for a nice lunch hopefully with a view of the bridge and Vila Nova de Gaia. I understand that Ribeira is a very touristy place. Just wanted to check if there are any nice restaurants in that area that I should check out?

Thank you!

Yes, try Terreiro. Lovely little restaurant

thank you Happy Trvir and Benmia.
Terreiro ... I liked the reviews and photos. the food looks great. but so far haven't been able to find an email address for reservations. I

Or you could send them a message on their Facebook page.

If you're also interested in having a gourmet dinner in the Ribeira district in a charming, atmospheric spot with beams and exposed stone walls (but no expansive river/Gaia views), I can recommend the Ode Porto Wine House. It's also on Largo de Terreiro, open for dinner Tuesday-Saturday (closed Sun/Mon) for lunch Friday/Saturday only and bookable on The Fork.

We ate at Fish Fixe a few years ago, thought it was terrific. Great octopus, if that is appealing. Porto is a beautiful city, and the Ribiera is a magnificent place,

We had a couple great meals at Monchique, on the waterfront but a bit out of the tourist fray.

Thank you. Will check both of these out: Fish Fixe and Monchique
