3.5/10The food was less than average. Very poor quality ingredients wrongly advertised and badly prepared. Very good waiting staff, nice location. Terrible over priced food, very badly cooked (or under cooked !)

10/10We had a wonderful long lunch on their terrace. Starters, wine and baby goat for two all a perfect ending to our two wonderful days in Guimaraes.

10/10Excellent meal at this great restaurant. We happened to visit during the Medieval Festival, so the entire city was one big party. The atmosphere was great, especially for the patio seatings.

8/10The food was good, if not quite on par with Michelin standards. The service and the knowledge on staff needs to improve as well before a real Michelin rating is feasible.

10/10Incredible meal! Every course was delicious. The service was impeccable. The jazz-infused ambiance was delightful, and we couldn't have left happier or more satiated. Highly, highly recommend Hool Restaurante!

6.5/10Staff was nice and did basically a good job. Especially in the beginning. As the restaurant started to receive more guests their attention slipped. The appetizers and starters was excellent. But the mains, angus beef resp turbot was a great dissapointment. Will not revisit.

10/10Everything was 10/10! From the moment we entered the restaurant and were seated by the waiter we could just feel we were in for a special experience. As the meal went on, we were not disappointed. From the delicious, original and surprising welcome starters curtesy of the Chef, to the excellent wine pairing by our charming waiter, to the staff’s flexibility in altering the main dish for me (as I am sensitive to butter), and off course each and every dish we ordered - everything just radiated originality, locality, freshness, attention to detail, a love for hospitality and exquisite taste! It was the best meal of our one week trip to northern Portugal and an experience we will surely remember for a lifetime. Don’t miss it out!
