1 Best Restaurant in Northern Portugal, Portugal

This riverside restaurant 9 km (6 miles) from Régua, on the south bank of the Douro, draws gourmets from far and wide with Michelin-starred chef Rui Paula's take on the cuisine of his native region. Only the best ingredients are used in dishes in which bacalhau and polvo (octopus) loom large, as well as tender Bísaro pork and Maronesa veal. You'll pay €110 for a tasting menu (plus €80 for wines), but you may also order à la carte.
