Worth queuing for! Was aware we would probably have to queue, as a tiny place. Waited approx 30 mins on a Friday night, and took one of the two outside tables as everyone else wanted inside (it was finally dry, and not cold). Exceptional food....My husband had beef cheeks, he said delicious with a hint of spice, I had one if the cod dishes with mashed potato, again really flavourful. Great, friendly service. Go, if in Porto!More

Disappointing is probably the best review I can give, we waited an hour , which was fine as we could see most nights a queue, however, after waiting and being one of the first in '2nd group in' as its only about 5 tables, very...disappointing to find several dishes had run out ( there were was still at least 8-12 people behind us waiting for a table) The owners were lovely and we could see proud of their place , what we ate was nice and different ,however, after having spent several nights in Porto we enjoyed many other establishments for quite a bit less euro and with a more relaxing vibe.More

Get ready to wait in line but every minute is worth the food you will taste. Own and servers are outstanding and make up for small space and need to wait for your turn, but when you will get your turn...OMG! Everything we tasted was...outstanding and very portuguese so do yourself a favor and do not go to flashy places, stop by here and I am sure you will not regret it because this is what HOME tastes like.More

We happened upon Petisqueria Voltaria by chance and we're glad that we did. This little restaurant is a gem and I recommend it to anybody visiting Porto. I would arrive early, we had to wait a few minutes for a table outside on the street...but as we were dining a much longer line formed and it took sometime for people to be seated. It's a small place so this is understandable but what it lacks in size the food more than makes up for. I had the beef and this steak was much larger than I had imagined for lunch so it was good we were in Porto so I could walk and climb off my lunch, my wife had the Bacalhau and loved it but it was more than she could eat. The staff there very accommodating and our server was incredibly friendly and offered good advice about Porto. If planning a visit to Portugal don't miss Porto this city is an amazing place with much to do and see and even more to eat.More

Found this little gem by accident. Before the novel below, let me just summarize with this first: the food was delicious and well prepared, and the staff was so friendly and kind. The combo of great food and wonderful staff makes the pleasant dining experience....Worth the wait!!! I happened to be in the area an hour before lunch closing time. Got there and there was already a couple waiting. As it was near closing time, I wasn’t sure if could get in, but glad I waited. Eventually I was seated at 10 to 16h, at which time the restaurant was already closed (not uncommon practice especially if most tables will finish at closing time) . I was super grateful for their kindness and hospitality to have me, even though it meant their break would be delayed. I am a fan of all things octopus, so I had the Polvo à Lagareiro with white wine, an excellent combo (thank you for the wine suggestion, Hugo!). I would have loved to try any cod fish dish, but as a solo diner, one can only eat so much…. Polvo was soooo tender, and the potatoes creamy and sweet. What a delightful dish! I could eat it all day, but beware, it is rich as it is cooked in olive oil. Too bad I didn’t have some bread to soak up the olive oil as it would have been delicious! I also had the dessert and port combo - chose chocolate mousse to go with the port. They were a good ending to a wonderful lunch. Highly recommend this place, and please try to be there when they open to fully enjoy the experience. I am especially thankful that Hugo spoke English with me, which I admit made me feel more welcomed. I will definitely be back when I am in town again!More

I walked by this place and was a long line so I decided to give it a try. I had a codfish pastel de nata as starter and codfish with potatoes, bacon, onion as a main dish. It was really good and it was a...quite big portion as in fact I couldn’t finish it ( I was full) The waiter and waitress were really nice and kind to me the whole time.
