Between the Atlantic and the River Douro, among vibrant markets and signature cuisine, the city creates a gastronomic narrative composed of fresh ingredients and deep connections to the local area. It is in this setting that the Vila Foz Hotel & Spa establishes itself as a meeting point between the sea, tradition and contemporary haute cuisine, through a variety of spaces that reinterpret the essence of Northern Portugal. **Vila Foz Restaurant: haute cuisine inspired by the sea** At the heart of the hotel, Vila Foz Restaurant, awarded a MICHELIN star and renewed in 2026, is a celebration of signature cuisine by Chef Arnaldo Azevedo. Here, each dish is born from a precise and sensory vision, where textures and flavours come together in perfect harmony. The sea is the main inspiration - fish and seafood from the Portuguese coast take centre stage in creations that combine technique, elegance and boldness. More than a meal, it is a complete gastronomic experience, where every detail is carefully designed to surprise and captivate.
