The Yeatman Gastronomic Restaurant

The Yeatman was exceptional from start to finish. The service was outstanding—polished, attentive, and genuinely warm without ever feeling overdone. The atmosphere was elegant and refined, with a sense of occasion that made the entire evening feel special. The dining experience was superb, with beautifully executed dishes and a level of detail that carried through the whole meal. The wine program is truly world-class…one of the most impressive wine menus I’ve ever seen, both in depth and quality. This is the kind of restaurant that reminds you what fine dining should feel like. In my opinion, The Yeatman fully deserves three Michelin stars.

First 2 star Michelin restaurant and it did not disappoint! It was truly an experience starting with the piano music & initial courses, down to every dish that was thoughtfully curated, while having lovely conversations with the staff who made our experience so memorable. We will never forget such a wonderful evening!

A dining experience at The Yeatman Gastronomic Restaurant is orchestrated with theatrical elegance. The evening began beautifully in a separate reception lounge, where multiple staff members warmly welcomed us. Enjoying a glass of Colinas Lady Sara sparkling wine and delicate appetizers in this relaxed, intimate setting set a sophisticated tone for the night. As the appetizer sequence concluded, we were escorted into the main dining room. The space is breathtaking, reflecting the grand, palatial concept of the hotel. With its enchanting, almost Arabian Nights-like atmosphere and stunning night views of Porto, it truly feels like a magnificent stage for a culinary performance. The chef's creativity and the artistic plating of the Harvest Menu are undeniable highlights. However, as we moved into the main courses, the culinary ambition occasionally overshadowed the ingredients. Some dishes felt heavy-handed with sauces, and the sheer effort put into complex flavor profiles sometimes made it difficult to appreciate the natural, foundational tastes of the high-quality produce. This was particularly evident in the 'Tuna Royal 2026', which was distractingly salty. Fortunately, the following main course—'The Yeatman Suckling Pig'—redeemed the progression with its excellent execution, perfectly balancing rich flavors and satisfying textures. Where The Yeatman undeniably shines brightest is its service. The hospitality was seamless, attentive, and deeply professional from start to finish. Our chosen wines—the 2018 Imperfeitos white and the 2013 Principal Grande Reserva red—were exceptional and guided beautifully by the staff to complement the complex menu. Practical touches, such as the complimentary hotel parking voucher, further smoothed the experience. It is a memorable and beautiful destination that, with a slightly gentler touch on the seasoning, would be absolutely flawless.

Everything about this restaurant was exceptional from the stunning city view to the warm and attentive staff. But the true star of the evening was the chef. Every dish was an experience on its own, layered with beautiful flavours and presented with so much creativity and care. The talent behind this menu is undeniable. The entire team made my birthday celebration feel truly special and unforgettable. 🎂

Top gastronomic experience! From the moment you arrive, everything feels special. The restaurant offers an elegant atmosphere with an incredible view over Porto and the Douro River. Each dish is beautifully presented and full of flavor, showing the creativity and precision of the kitchen. The tasting menu is a real journey through modern Portuguese cuisine, perfectly paired with outstanding wines. Service is impeccable and very attentive throughout the entire dinner. Truly an unforgettable fine dining experience and definitely one of the best restaurants in Porto.
