Very good restaurant with very good and fresh food. Meson has the name, but this place ia much better and the staff is much more friendlier. Had an very good time
We dined at the Porthus last week, and it was the best meal that we have had in Spain for a long time. The service was exceptional, as was the ambience. We cannot wait to return for another fine dining experience
One of the best if not the best restaurant in the town. Classy surroundings inside and the highest quality food.
I tried the grilled octopus which is my favorite dish around Spain and it was amazing my wife ordered beetroot salad with burrata and she was so impressed as well. Food is super delicious and service is 5 stars with amazing atmosphere
This SPANISH restaurant only opened three months ago, however is already very popular and rightly so. Very good welcome, service and attentive staff. The menu is well designed with thought for all tastes and an incentive slant on traditional dishes of the country. The quality of the presentation is amongst the best we have experienced in the area and the chef and his team clearly takes great pride in their work! Typical Spanish/French over cooked vegetables which will not appeal to many, however try the Potatas Bravas starter and you'll get an idea of what pleasure lies ahead. We asked for a Hendrik's gin to start which we requested with cucumber. Even though they didn't have it, they went out to obtain the garnish and that's service!! We would definitely recommend this restaurant that offers high class food and wine selection at great value. Bon appetite
This is a fantastic restaurant with many interesting dishes. Highly recommend the 'cheese bar' starter. The sirlion steak was very well cooked and beef cheek is so delicate and delicious. Very friendly service and a nice ambience.
Lovely restaurant! Great food and nice ambiance! Sirloin steak was more of a fillet steak? The cinnamon and apple sauce was delicious!!
