Restaurant Casa Expresso

Casa Expresso is precisely the kind of unpretentious and enduring venue that defines a true Portuguese dinner in Porto. Far from the theatrics of tourist traps, this is a beloved local institution where the welcome is warm, the portions are generous, and the flavors speak of home-cooked food at its best.

The menu is a celebration of traditional Portuguese food. The undisputed star is the Roj elimes sandwich—a slow-cooked pork sandwich that customers always praise for its rich, authentic flavor. This is classic snack culture: think healthy, flavorful sausages, robust soups, and a delicious array of small dishes perfect for sharing. Everything is served with quick and friendly efficiency, often accompanied by a polished bottle of the House's red wine.
