About Restaurante Monteiros - Prato do dia | Francesinha Forno a Lenha | Anho e Cabrito em Forno a Lenha

Wood-fired francesinha is what draws people to Monteiros, and the house sauce is what keeps them talking about it long after. The bacalhau runs it close, and both dishes arrive with homemade fries that taste exactly like they should. The room is casual Afurada — no ceremony, just honest portions and a crowd that mixes locals with visitors who found the place and are glad they did. Staff move quickly even when the place is full, and the house shot that arrives at the end of the meal without being asked for is the kind of touch that earns a return visit. At €10–15 a head, it sits well below what the same quality would cost elsewhere in Porto.

What Stands Out

Wood-fired francesinha

The signature francesinha—made with fresh ingredients and house-made sauce—arrives crispy and balanced; reviewers consistently rank it among the best they've eaten across Portugal.

Roasted meats

Roasted chicken breast, lamb (anho), and kid (cabrito) come out tender and generous, paired with house-made chips and simple sides.

Wine list, dessert and coffee

The wine list earns regular praise, and the house dessert and coffee are standouts.
