O Campino Restaurant: Reviews & Ratings
Fantastic restaurant for authentic Portuguese food and atmosphere. Also very cheap drinks. New local favourite!
I was seeking to have a good Francesinha and this restaurant did not disappoint! Although it wasn't written in the menu, I was able to have one for 14. The Francesinha sauce was the right level of spiciness / hot (bristish mild - level of katsu curry or a bit less), so if you like it spicy ask to be spicier - I'm sure they will be able to sort it. Their Francesinha can truly compete with the ones served in Porto. So if u miss the dish, they are up to the challenge. Also had half liter of house red wine and it was great - forgot to ask which one was - the restaurant also has some good bottles at reasonable prices, such as Papa Figos. Others seemed a bit overpriced (Monte Velho). It was a shame that the restaurant part was closed for a private function, but still was able to have dinner in the Bar section and the service was good.
Authentic Portuguese food. Decent portions and very tasty. Strongly recommend the grilled Portuguese sausage and prawns.
Feels litterary like a Portuguese restaurant, great food and atmosphere
A massive thank you to David and his team for coming together to make my sons baptism one to remember. Given the unexpected circumstances, everyone worked hard to make everything perfect for me and my guests and I couldn’t thank them enough!
Very good local Portuguese. Unassuming from outside but a lovely team for the service and nice seafood on the menu. Can easily recommend for a good-value casual meal out. Only other note is that it has a bit of a bar vibe as well - pro or con depending on what you want!
Family run, authentic Portugese experience. Went out for dinner with 5 of us. No reservation, busy night, but happy to make space for us. We ordered mostly off the specials menu and everything was delicious, cooked on an actual grill. Suggested Portugese wine was lovely too. Service was personal and lovely and they really seemed to care. Would definitely recommend!
Local gem. Authentic Portuguese food. Good portions and very tasty.
