Portland Restaurant
The kitchen aims to cook very good produce, as simply as possible but with imagination and plenty of care. The menu is driven by what arrives from our suppliers each day.
Our wine list is international and offers roughly three quarters of our wines by the glass
Menu
A fantastic restaurant - and good value for quality of the food (and all the bonus courses). I thought the chicken main was one of the best I have eaten.
Excellent food, great staff and overall nice restaurant ....
Unpretentious creative cooking. Friendly, enthusiastic and unfussy service. One of my favourite places to eat.
We got the Tasting Menu and we loved it. The staff are also very fast and attentive. Pretty good wine selection too. A very pleasing experience, I will come back.
The food was absolutely lovely, creative and prepared to perfection. But most importantly, we loved the service. We met up for dinner with a friend who's not only fussy, but also has a rather impressive list of allergies. Still, the (French) waiter and the kitchen were ever so patient, considerate and friendly (whilst I would have hated cooking for our friend) and managed to create some dishes which did not only meet her dietary requirements but also made her very happy. Thank you very much!
This is the best place in my life. Compared to Michelin 3, it is better for my singing and skills. And I went to celebrate my birthday and received the happiest event letter in the world and the ingredients for making it in Hwi Nangsi as a gift. I shed tears and lost my heart here. The service was the best, but the food here is adventurous and has a rich taste of food ingredients. Everyone should experience this place once in a while.
Very good food and service, would deffinetly come again
Thank you
On honeymoon the staff signed a congratulatory card. Food was amazing; great experience!
Stunning, like always!
I'm celebrating my birthday here second year in a row!
Excellent service and food. We had a really enjoyable evening, everyone was friendly and happy and the atmosphere was relaxed.
Great food and fabulous service. A must visit if you enjoy fine dining.
I've been here several times and the food is exceptional. They also seem to hire and train their staff extremely well - the service is friendly and attentive, while also being discrete and very efficient.
Great food, great atmosphere, excellent service - we had a very good time and will definitely come back.
Amazing dining experience as always. Food, wine, service, ambience - all spot on. Would go again and again to check out the ever-changing seasonal menus. Big love for this restaurant!!
An absolute steal for £35 for three courses at lunch. The food was brilliantly cooked. When the dessert came out, although it looked pretty, I didn't think it would taste anything special. How wrong was I.
Others bits I liked- offer still or fizzy water at no extra cost (how often do restaurants try and get you to buy bottled water) and the coffee was normal price - again unusual.
Would we go back? - we will go back.
Fantastic Main Dishes, a bit disapointed with the desserts though. A superb restaurant overall. However, a bit overpricy.
We visited Portland for my friends 40th. The food was exceptional and the service complemented it with the same standard.
Starters were ok but not special.
Main courses tasted almost like airline food. Over cooked fish, watery mushrooms in a vegetarian dish.
Priced as a Michelin star restaurant with very mediocre food.
Not a good experience.
The food was amazing from all points of view
Staff cute and nice
A very friendly welcome and the lovely smells coming from the open kitchen are what greets you one you walk into Portland. And it just gets better. The service is relaxed but attentive and the food exceeds the expectations that the descriptions on the menu and the smells that greeted you set when you arrived.
You won't be disappointed. An interesting wine list, sadly not cheap, but then that seems to be the norm in central London restaurants these days.
Great food and very pleasant service, big sister to Clipstone, even better food, although prefer ambiance of Clipstone
Great little spot, will repeat.
Fantastic food, slightly small servings but not extremely so. Super flavours. Would recommend
Great relaxed atmosphere and some lovely personal touches from the staff for my partners Birthday. Amazing food, excellent service!
Portland is a consistently excellent restaurant. The food is outstanding, the service always excellent, and it's very comfortable to sit there and talk to one's fellow diners, as the music level is very low indeed. Altogether one of my favourite restaurants in London.
We all had the tasting menu. This is well thought out. Started with a small tomato soup which had a lemon grass foam. Excellent. A few more nibbles, chicken skin with parfait, prawn toast and some pickled veg. All good. Moved onto mackerel with daikon followed by pollock with samphire
Meat was lamb in three cuts with aubergine. Pre dessert followed by dessert of strawberries ,ice cream crumble and white chocolate tuile.
A fine finish to the meal
No criticism at all with good service and friendly staff. Good value as well. All in for just under a £100 each including two bottles of wine and tip.
Dining area is the only thing I would improve by having a new floor. Current one somewhat dingy.
It was wonderful! Would definitely go back again when we’re in town.
Brilliantly eclectic combinations that taste great, sensible portions (ie not too big) and excellent service.
Service was spotty, wine consistently served towards end of the course.
Delicious food and incredible service. Such a great restaurant. Make sure you get the chicken wings stuffed with bone marrow, and the chocolate and coffee dessert.
It was our anniversary and we got a hand signed cars congratulating us from all the staff. Such a lovely tough on arrival. We will be back for more that I am sure of. Thanks for our great waitress who made some really great recommendations (including some rather delicious Greek wine) and was super helpful and kind.
All in all a lovely evening with beautifully presented food
We had a delicious meal with caring service and excellent wine
Stunning meal. Amazing service lovely cosy place!
Outstanding food relying mostly on British staple ingredients with a good balance of European influences. Lovely service, patient with our party of adults and children.
Fantastic food every time we’ve been, and the service is always perfect - not too overbearing, but suitably attentive. The chicken skins are a must-order.
We had a truly fantastic experience at Portland and will certainly be back. The atmosphere was warm and unpretentious, the music was unobtrusive and enabled conversation, the service was attentive and welcoming and the food was outstanding. We had the tasting menu and each dish was beautifully presented and tasted even better. Furthermore, we both have complicated dietary requirements. We mentioned this to the restaurant when we made our booking and the staff went out of their way to accommodate us. Honestly, no restaurant has made such great efforts and it added a huge amount to our experience that we were able to fully trust that we could eat each dish. Overall, we enjoyed every aspect of our meal and highly recommend.
Excellent food - great service - can’t recommend enough.
Excellent!
Thank you to everyone at the Portland for an amazing evening.
We had the tasting menu paired with wines. Just an outstanding meal, course after course of taste and texture that delighted the palate and left us wanting to ask for each dish again!!!
We will be back and back and back again!
Thank you all!
Amazing as always, the food is fantastic. Also the bread is the best I've tried!
As usual an outstanding meal at Portland, always interesting flavour combinations, beautifully presented and delicious
