ABOUT US
Vila Camélia is, above all, a family home—a place of life and sharing—located in the heart of Porto, where hospitality, French gastronomy, and the art of welcoming come together. Conceived and run by the Lestuzzi family, the house combines a fine-dining restaurant with a guesthouse featuring four elegants suites, designed to offer an intimate and warm experience to every visitor.
More than just an establishment, Vila Camélia is a family project, born from a shared passion for cooking, wine, and hospitality. Every detail has been crafted to create a convivial and refined atmosphere, where guests feel welcomed as if in a private home.
THE RESTAURANT
The restaurant is led by Chef Enrico Lestuzzi, a former Michelin-starred chef for eleven years in Strasbourg. With demanding experience and expertise gained at the highest level of French gastronomy, he offers in Porto a sincere and elegant cuisine, guided by respect for the product and the seasons. His cuisine relies on carefully selected local ingredients, enhanced by French techniques and a modern approach, emphasizing balance, precision, and generosity.
At Vila Camélia, every meal is meant to be a living experience : a moment of discovery, sharing, and emotion. Between gastronomic menus, food and wine pairings, and special events, the house invites its guests to travel through flavors and encounters.
Whether for a dinner, a stay in one of our suites, or a special event, our ambition remains the same: to offer authentic, delightful, and welcoming moments, true to the spirit of the Lestuzzi family and the French art of living.
