Restaurant in Portsmouth

“My only slight criticism is that the place could do with a little redecorating but I imagine after the last couple of years that expenditure isn't a high priority. I can get over that as the food was fantastic. For the quality of food, prices were very reasonable. Would highly recommend the pork main and the peach dessert. We had such a great evening of eating with some lovely wine. We will definitely be back!”

“Extremely enjoyable evening. First time but great service, ambiance and food. Had the hot stone fillet stea which was wonderful. We will come back.”

“Our first visit to Krishna's and won't be our last. Excellent food, excellent quality, excellent service. Need I say more.”

“Authentic, flavorful, and an unforgettable experience. This Turkish gem delivers everything from warm fresh bread to perfectly grilled kebabs and heavenly baklava. The ambiance is cozy, the service is outstanding, and every bite feels like a trip to Istanbul. Can’t wait to come back!”

“This was my first time trying Turkish food, and it was incredible! We ordered mixed kebabs and the house specials combo. The Turkish bread appetizer was the best!!”

“Good food and good service from the staff. The place is cozy and nice to dine with family and friends. Their menu is great..”

“Last visited 2 years ago on holiday and returned recently to find the same high standard of food. Excellent service and friendly staff. Need to book as this is such a popular restaurant. The menu is varied and the black truffle oil and parmesan coated wedges are heavenly.”

“Martin served us all night with such infectious enthusiasm, it was lovely! The food was amazing as always, as well as the cocktails. Being able to sit with a view of the spinnaker tower and the water just tops the atmosphere. What topped it even more was getting a free main course for my birthday month!”

“Had a really lovely, relaxed lunch here. Food was tasty, well cooked and reasonably priced. Service was great - friendly and attentive without being overbearing. 4 stars for atmosphere may be a bit unfair as we went at a quiet time with only one other customer, so difficult to rate, but we were glad it was quiet so we could talk and background music was at a pleasant volume. Would add a star for the fact this place was actually open and serving food at 2.30 on a saturday afternoon when everywhere else around had closed their kitchens! Would happily return.”

“Very relaxed atmosphere, at no time did we feel under pressure to order, plates weren't cleared until we had finished eating, excellent range of dishes on the menu, my guest is vegetarian and there was a good range of dishes for her to select from. Staff were welcoming, friendly and professional, the restaurant was very clean. My guest has lived in Lebanon for several years and assured me about the authenticity of the cuisine. Prices are very reasonable, I have no hesitation in recommending this restaurant.”

“My partner and I made a booking for his 30th birthday. We went and ordered the mains straight away.I got the Kleftico, which was soooo good I can’t even explain, the meat was coming off the bones literally! Just talking about it makes my mouth water! My partner got the Pollo Involtine another show stopper, everything in the plate goes so well together, just finger licking good! And then for dessert we shared a sticky toffee pudding which was perfectly designed as a birthday dessert. Other than the fabulous food, that warmth and the hospitality of the staffs are out of this world! I can’t even recommend Da Vinci Restaurant enough, so much so that we live in the mainland and are already planning on when we can come back to Isle of Wight just so we can come back to Da Vinci Restaurant again!”

“A very friendly locals Pub good cocktails old pub atmosphere good stop”

“A really nice, friendly Mediterranean restaurant offering really good food and excellent service. I called in here en route to Southampton for my daughter's birthday primarily because of the good reviews here on Google. I can honestly say that the reviews are accurate. The whitebait, calamari and prawns we perfectly cooked and my steak was as expertly cooked as any I've ever had outside of London. The service was excellent and our host, Bethany, made us and most importantly my daughter feel very welcome on her birthday. We'll certainly return if we're ever in the area again!”

“I don't often write reviews, but this pizza was an absolute standout meal. After a quick chat with the lovely waitress and then chef, I settled on the Calabrese. Fantastic rich tasting base and sauce, with plenty of flavoursome toppings. As a local favourite establishing their first shopfront I wish them very well. I would certainly go out of my way to return again should I have the chance from Australia.”

“Great pizza. Lovely atmosphere inside with very clean work space and seating and workers are very kind.”

“Myself and my brother went here yesterday for a coffee and cake. So glad we did, lovely coffee and even better cake all at a fair price. I will be going here again soon.”

“Wow!!!! We could easily give more than 5 stars. There was 9 of us but we experienced fantastic service and the most AMAZING food. The portions are really big but so tasty you can't stop eating. The meat was so tender it melted in your mouth. Absolutely outstanding on service and food. Thank you for a brilliant evening.”

“Tried this lovely restaurant tonight as we are in the area for 24 hours only, went for a walk and decided, quite late, that we were hungry. We were lucky enough to get a table as the kitchen was about to close. We had Pad See-Ew, mine with chicken, his with giant prawns, and a chicken satay sharer starter. The satay sauce was delicious; I've never had one like it before. The Pad See-Ew were amazing, piled high with good stuff and extremely tasty. I couldn't eat all of mine so I have it as takeaway. The restaurant is intimate and very comfortable. Don't walk past it. The prices are excellent, especially for a seaside area. If you're visiting Southsea, then this restaurant is definitely worth a visit. I promise you, you will find excellent food, which is great value, and absolutely the kindest staff in the area.”

“Been here loads of times and always drag my colleagues along when we're in town. Informal and friendly with great fresh wholesome food. Prices are reasonable and they serve olives, chilli sauce and warm flat bread as a complimentary appetiser. Try the excellent Turkish wine. Food is cooked over hot coals in the restaurant for an authentic flavour.”

“Very good food. Very kind and attentive service. I was with my family and everyone was very satisfied with everything!”

“I ate there last night,recommended by the hotel receptionist in Portsmouth. Food and the service were excellent. I ordered the fried mussels for starter. Large portion and delicious. Chicken Beyti for main was very tasty, mild and good size, could not finish it all. Staff were very friendly and helpful, even booked us a taxi for the way back. Would go again when back in Portsmouth or Southsea.”

“We had 2 nice pizzas, good size and very tasty. We enjoyed the atmosphere and staff was very friendly. Good location near southsea beach. Restaurant very well presented.”

“We have used this restaurant for the past 3 years and wouldn't go anywhere else. We visit in house 2-3 times a year on our birthdays and anniversaries. And have at least 1 takeaway a month. Always with 10% discount on collection. Wether eating in or take away the food is amazing. So tasty, generous portions and cooked to perfection. And very fairly priced. The mango and pistachio ice creams are always a must after the meal. The staff are always so attentive and nothing is too much trouble. They are friendly and professional but can still have a laugh and a joke about which adds to the atmosphere and ambiance. We have always booked before eating in as you can rarely get seated if you just walk in-a tell tale sign of just how good it is here. Very clean, and mellow authentic Indian decor throughout. Definitely recommend this place”

“Fantastic steak, perfectly cooked, great quality meat, generous portion size. Other meals looked and apparently tasted equally delicious. Friendly but not obtrusive service. Nice surrounds and decor, pleasant atmosphere. Look forward to the next visit!”

“Delicious kebabs with juicy meat, fresh ingredients, and perfect seasoning. Great service and atmosphere. Highly recommended for kebab lovers!”

“A nice place with friendly staff members. It is also easy to put through online orders with many great online and offline offers. The store is very clean and an easy access to the toilet for the customers. Shall visit again!”

“The dining room had a feel of grandeur with its bright white walls with gold cornice and elegant lighting. The white tablecloths were pristine. I had curried cauliflower soup, then some of the best fish and chips I've ever had.”

“Lovely food, friendly and attentive staffs and will definitely come back asap.”

“Popped in with my family the other day. We are all Vegetarian and were well catered for. The Cafe is also dog friendly. Service was excellent and the food was quality. I will go again”
