Staff were great and attentive. The food for a few of us was a bit dry, the Chicken in particular was on the dry side and my ribs weren't as tender and juicy as I hoped they would be and the sticky toffee pudding was also dry, saving grace was the ice cream. But otherwise not a bad way to spend an evening.

More than super delicious food - which you are very welcome to share so you can taste more and different dishes - we had chicken and duck for starters which we shared and 4 different cuts of beef as delicious as we liked them and there was a lots of side dishes other than potatoes and salad

Very tender and juicy steakes. We tried the tasting menu with 4 different steaks and they were perfectly cooked. 4 x 6 oz was almost too much for 2 persons, you really get value for money. Very nice restaurant

Food is good. I took the chicken paella, it was good but too oily from the chorizo. Also a paella should be a mix of chicken and seafood so I was disappointed. My wife took the beef sirloin. It was good. The choice of beef is limited and there is no cured or aged one so not the best place for the beef. The wine is from South America so not very good. The place is nice and the service excellent. The price is also good so I don't think I'll go back but I still recommend it.

Myself and my fiancé visited here for dinner. We were greeted by friendly faces and sat straight away from our booking. We were given the right amount of time to settle and have our drinks order ready. The pink gin was beautiful! We ordered our food and it came super quick. The chips here are utterly amazing! Whilst my fiancé was eating with his hands (ribs, he's not a neanderthal) a waiter brought over a plate and a wipe for him without us asking. We were treated like royalty as always at this restaurant with top class service and lovely manners from staff. Even down to the payment stage where we were brought jellybeans for afters (though would of preferred a mint). Would return again and again.

Our first time here following a colleagues recommendation and WOW what a place! Incredible food, service and atmosphere! Our new go to place. My steak was of the highest quality and cooked to perfection, as were all the sides we ordered. Our waiter was very attentive and polite (but not intrusive) and you could sense the staff seemed happy to be there which is reflected in the exceptional service they provide. I also appreciated the fact they don't automatically add or expect a tip/service charge when paying the bill. However we wanted to add a tip, which our waiter seem surprised by when we asked (in a good way I would add), but it was truly well deserved. Phenomenal place and thoroughly recommended! Flawless. Will be back very soon 👍

I had the crispy fried Squid, and the Sword fish Paella, Squid normally a starter, but i ask for the both dishes together. Very tasty Squid, with a Dip. Paella was spot on with flavours,with herbs sprinkled in,and good ratio to fish and rice / prawns. Mind was made up before entering the restaurant, as read the Menu online. Good staff, and quite busy ,as was on a Fri afternoon.

Choose a place not far from home to celebrate a birthday, and the choice fell on this restaurant. I decided to go in person, have a coffee, and choose a table. The bartender refused to serve and told me I could have coffee at the coffee shop, but not here. It was unexpected. I couldn't evaluate the cuisine but thank you for declining. With such rude and unprofessional treatment of guests, who knows what other things could be encountered in this place Regards I explained my intentions to your staff, and usually, restaurants offer to choose and reserve a table for an event without “coffee”, rather than turning me around and sending me to a coffee shop. One star is not for the coffee but for the service. Thanks for clarifying the situation

We went there with family to celebrate my sisters birthday. Their service from start to finish was excellent. Their place and time between ordering and food coming out was extremely fast even more than fast food. We had the best tastiest ribs, steak, chicken, praws and different sides as well as desert. We were not disappointed with anything at all. They sang for my sister and gave her a birthday shot on the house. We enjoyed our evening perfectly. Not to leave their portions are out of this world it was a 100/10. I took a really nice video wish i could include a video not just one pic of one plate i have. Thannk you El Toro you will be seeing us again. So far in Hampshire when it comes to grills you are the best, on what i have tried so far as a food lover you are top tier

Excellent ribeye and sirloin churrasco steaks which are basically steaks marinated in chimichurri and served with chimmichurri sauce on top. This worked really well and doesn't overpower the steak which was really tender and cooked to perfection. Very friendly staff/owners. There are "off-menu" steaks such as t-bone and the 25oz steak the guy next to us ordered and finished! I highly recommend El Toro.

Compared to our visit a few years ago, this was a disappointment. Four dishes ordered and then delivered to the table in five minutes suggests quick reheating was at play, possibly in a microwave, at least for the paella.The taste wasn't awful, but for a total of £80 for the four, we deserved more. Celebrating our wedding anniversary with our children at el Toro left us feeling flat.

We had to book early as it was so busy in Saturday night but we didn’t mind too much as it had an atmosphere but wasn’t overly packed. For me personally the Sauvignon blanc, which was the most expensive white by the glass, wasn’t the best I have had but not bad at all in saying that! I had chicken paella which was fantastic and I would say you got plenty for your money! Only downside I would say chicken wasn’t the best quality with lots of fatty bits which again for me puts me off the rest of the meat. Although the overall taste was delicious! Would have a halloumi next time. The other half had a mixed grill and thoroughly enjoyed it. Usually steak is his favourite although he loved chicken and lamb. Steak didn’t carry much flavour and ribs were just ok. But again overall thoroughly enjoyed it. Service was fantastic and the staff were friendly and helpful and quick without making you feel rushed. Overall we would come back here and try something else too! **please bear in mind ‘criticisms’ are of our own taste and preferences! Overall experience here was fantastic**

I really don't know how this restaurant has this 4.7 stars. 4 of us went there. For starters we had crab cakes (looked like flat falafel)I couldn't taste any crab, tasted like cheap tuna and potato cakes. garlic prawns over cooked and sauce was floury and couldn't taste any garlic either. Mains; 2 of us had steaks both completely UNSEASONED, if you are paying over £20 for a steak I expect it to at least have SALT in it. Only positive is that at least they cooked it medium rare as we asked. Spicy ribs... they are dry pork ribs again, cooked with no seasoning at all and only chuck in a bit of what they called "chimichurri" and a few chilli flakes. Finally the £22 "chimichurri" sea bass wasn't fresh it tasted like it was on the edge of going bad. Their chimichurri is NOT chimichurri but I guess at least it had some salt. The sides... chips were okay, mushrooms had no seasoning, corn on the cob you could tell it was cooked from frozen and new potatoes were the only thing I enjoyed....After adding salt. Overall super overpriced, food is not worth it. Service was good, staff was very nice hence why 1 star.

I rarely leave reviews for anything except when something is exceptional. Last night we are in El Toro for my sons's birthday and overall it was incredible meal out. Our party consisted of 4 adults an 8 year old and 12 year old. From the minute we came through the door the staff were fabulous and couldn't do enough for us. Service was efficient, our glasses were topped up, cutlery changed, table wiped after our main and we were asked a few times if we needed anything. We ordered surf and turf, chicken and steak, mixed grill and steak and lamb and a burger for my daughter. It was all cooked to perfection and tasted AMAZING. The meat was amazing quality, served hot and came with extra sauces that we ordered, peppercorn, garlic and blue cheese. All served with piping hot chips. Every plate was cleared except the lamp bones!!!! We ordered two desserts and my son's came with a birthday candle, lovely touch. On receipt of payment we all got after eights with our receipt. Over all a 10/10. One of the BEST meals I have had in ages. Highly recommended!

A real hidden treasure. Tucked away on Portsdown Hill, you have to know it’s there to find it. The burger bar uses locally sourced ingredients and genuine burgers.
