About Restaurante Portas de São Roque
Restaurante Portas de São Roque is a family-run tasca near Estádio do Dragão where the owner works the room and his daughter handles service.

Lunch is packed with locals and match-day crowds. You'll pay €8.50–€12 for a full meal with beer and dessert. One reviewer got 500ml beer, a huge main course, and homemade cake for €12.
