Challenge your Senses 

Largo do Paço in Amarante 

The restaurant Largo do Paço in Amarante (near Porto) worth a visit during your stay in the north of the coutry. Indulge yourself and be surprised with a true feast for the five senses. It seems strange that a space full of refinement, actually a palace, which by nature pays tribute to the past,  shelter  such a innovative and daring kitchen. The service, room and sommelier, is perfect, as if to prepare the ground for the creations of Victor Matos, a chef with as much determination as reliable and of course hand for dishes that delight, one by one,  from the amuse bouche to dessert. The already one Michelin star chef takes the stand as a candidate for a second one. They promise themselves some moments of gastronomic experiences. "The crab and lobster," "The Fall" (egg cooked at low temperature, with wild mushrooms, asparagus and Parmesan foam) and "The Emperor of the Azores and crustaceans" (with oysters poached in white wine from Douro) are titles for later recall. "The Citrus" are a great farewell, tarts with lemon and mandarin 
sorbet with limequat.


Fully fulfilling the Relais and Châteaux Association demands on quality and gastronomical uniqueness, the regional and mediterranean inspired cuisine, turns the Restaurant into a must visit place, which will surely delight you.The restaurant is also perfect for a private family lunch or a business dinner.
In case you wish to experience a complete Degustation Menu, we recommend an early reservation.
