   Really difficult to get hold of staff, no one to be seen. But when around they're lovely. Steak tastes cheap quality. Peppercorn sauce lacks flavour. Diane sauce is good. Steak sauce (advised by waitress is like HP, great on chips, far too strong for steak). Chimmichurri is too oily. Salad is similar to harvester or pizza hut. Spinach too watery Asparagus overcooked If you're looking for a small step up from a Beefeater', you're in the right spot.

   Excellent steak, we had the chateaubriand and we couldn't fault it, cooked to perfection. The staff were friendly, lauren was our waitress who was brilliant, and the restaurant was very busy with a good atmosphere.

   ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We visited Bar + Block Portsmouth last night to celebrate my wife’s birthday, and it couldn’t have been a better experience. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere felt warm and welcoming, and our server, Val, truly made the evening special. Val was absolutely amazing – friendly, attentive, and so genuine in the way she made my wife feel celebrated. It wasn’t just great service; she went above and beyond to make the occasion memorable. She is a real credit to the restaurant. The food itself was incredible – cooked perfectly and full of flavour. But for me, dining out isn’t only about the food, it’s about the whole experience, and Val really elevated ours. Thank you to the team, and especially Val, for giving us such a wonderful evening. We’ll definitely be back!

   Had an excellent meal at Bar + Block Portsmouth recently. The steak was cooked perfectly - nice char on the outside, tender and juicy inside. The hand-cut chips served in the cast iron skillet were crispy and well-seasoned, and the sauce had good depth of flavour. The presentation was thoughtful, particularly liked the slate board serving style. The fresh salad and asparagus were well-prepared and showed they handle vegetables as well as they do meat. Service was efficient and friendly without being overbearing. Good value for the quality you get. The atmosphere strikes a nice balance between casual and refined. Solid choice for a steak dinner in Portsmouth. Would go back.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

   Great food and service. Lovely waitress called Charde B was friendly and polite. She was brilliant with my daughter. The minted lamb chops where amazing and I could have ordered a second helping. The puddings were delicious.

   Found this restaurant by walking by. The atmosphere is amazing. Bright because of the big windows and cozy with their leather seats. I love the fact that they put the kcal on every meal they have. Really good for tracking your kcal for the day. The food came quickly and was really delicious. I just had to order a extra dip for my fries. They don’t come with a dip. They have beef/pork/chicken and vegetarian alternatives. Music is playing not to loud and not to quiet. You can enjoy talking with your friends and listen to music if you want to. They hit the right spot. 5/5 Stars. Will definitely come back the following days! :)

   We had a wonderful dinner here last night. We were served by a lovely lady and she did gave 100% service in looking after us. It was quiet in the restaurant so you can talk away while having your meal. It's a really nice place and I like the decor very up-to-date. Comfortable seating also. It is wheelchair accessible too for anyone wondering. Parking is 10 second walk and in the evening is free to park there. We both had the 8oz rump steak and they were cooked perfectly. It is served up a little different to how we are use to it as you can see from the photo it's not flat. It was nice to try it a different way though, it makes it different from other restaurants I feel. I did find my peppercorn sauce very thin though it had great flavour. My friend had the red wine and mushroom sauce which I tried though thin too much better and would definitely try this next time. We also tried the dessert menu and loved it, we had Eton mess Sundae and Churros chocolate sundae they were both delicious and I would get them again. The only thing I would add is that's it's pricey, so if your looking to treat yourself come here.

   Our waiter was lovely believe his name was William, watched him with other customers very good service and technique very friendly. We had one hiccup and that was that my partners food was done and ready to be served 20 minutes before mine… we where seated in a booth near the kitchen and could watch as food after after food went out and my partners fish and chips sat on the parse getting cold while it took another 20 minutes for them to cook my medium/rare steak … which don’t get me wrong when I got it was lovely but of course my partners cold food had to be re made so I ended up eating alone… the manager did however give us the choice of a free desert or drink. Nice little gesture

   Came here with a hope of eat something really quick as we were one of the very few people in other than one other table. Starters came very quick and were very good but on the other hand mains were hit and miss. we ordered a sirloin which was good and chicken salad where there were only 3 tiny chicken strips and loads and loads of tomatoes. Had to literally dig through the pile of them before finding any chicken. We did leave the feedback so hopefully they listen. The other thing to mention is that the kids meal should have come first not the last.
