on a very rare sunny Sunday afternoon I drove to portabello restaurant in oxford for a late lunch. like a bit background for those of them that are not too familiar with oxford, portabello restaurant is known in summertown (nord oxford,) which is a nicer part of oxford. when the sun is outside, it is the perfect place for a walk – there are many small shops, pubs, finer restaurants, the best Italian restaurant (mamma mia) and a weincafé – what else do you need!?
I recently traveled to Oxford for work and had the opportunity to dine at Portabello. The smoked trout and salmon mousse had a lovely creamy texture that complemented the fish well. The grilled squid fillet was perfectly cooked, although I wasn't a fan of the crispy crust. The vanilla poached pear with ginger ice cream and chocolate sauce for dessert was fairly average. Overall, the three-course dinner option for £16.95 was a good value.
Don't judge a book by its cover! Despite its beautiful appearance, this restaurant is only average. The steak I ordered was not as tasty as I had hoped. I would not recommend this place.
It appears that looks can be deceiving. While the restaurant has a nice appearance, the food was only average and the service was poor. I would not recommend this restaurant to a friend. Book a table now
Smoked trout and salmon mousse The smoked trout and salmon mousse had a slightly creamy texture which played well with the trout and salmon mix.
Nice restaurant which used to have good foodShowed up with a Group of 10 and everything went Well for the startersTasty and well presented.
I'd rather eat my sweater. It was bad food with incompetent, borderline cruel, service who put no effort into salvaging our night.
