Chef Nuno Mendes at the Helm

Internationally acclaimed and deeply rooted in Portuguese tradition, chef Nuno Mendes brings his distinctive voice to Cozinha das Flores. With a background spanning Michelin-starred kitchens and groundbreaking restaurants in London, his return to Portugal is both a homecoming and a new beginning — one that places Porto firmly on the map of contemporary cuisine.

A Personal Expression

At Cozinha das Flores, northern Portuguese hospitality is brought to life through a personal and evolving food philosophy. An intimate dining room with views to an open kitchen, where local ingredients meet tradition and fire in recipes that honour the region’s roots.

The Spirit of Porto

This is a spirited, creative space that is playful, warm, and rooted in the fabric of Porto. Here, refinement and spontaneity coexist, and new ideas emerge in rhythm with the city that surrounds us.

Guided by Curiosity

Our approach to wine is guided by curiosity, connection, and a love for the unexpected. With a focus on small producers and expressive bottles, each pour adds depth to the meal and speaks of place, people, and purpose.
