Edit: I have probably been back to this restaurant close to 10 times (at least once per visit to London). Love it every time and their tasting menu is dynamic with an over all improvement with each visit. Love the sommelier - she is great and entertaining with her descriptions of the wine. Lot’s of uniqueness to include great tasting wine from regions you wouldn’t expect. Can’t wait for my next trip : ) — Original — Portlands was well reviewed and did not disappoint. I wasn't disappointed by any course and they hit the pairings with some very interesting wines. My only *minor* feedback to the restaurant would be quality of port. I can get Taylor anywhere in the world ... there are more interesting drinks out there. Will be adding Portland to my circulation of restaurants when in London.

Portland Restaurant has quietly become a favourite — and for good reason. Every visit reminds us why it stands out in London’s vibrant food scene. The front of house team strike that rare balance of warmth, professionalism, and genuine engagement — you feel welcomed, never fussed over, and always in good hands. In the kitchen, the chef and team are consistently outstanding. The food is thoughtful, seasonal, and beautifully executed — not trying to impress for the sake of it, just delivering flavour and craft with real confidence. It’s some of the best cooking in London, without question. There’s a quiet integrity to everything Portland does — understated excellence, delivered with care. A place where you feel well looked after, well fed, and always keen to return. Highly recommended, whether for a special occasion or a spontaneous mid-week treat.

I had an amazing evening here and loved each course. I particularly enjoyed the cured duck and daikon snack and the rib of lamb. I was treated here for my birthday and I really appreciated the effort the staff made. No only did I get a birthday card, it was signed by all the staff. Before I left, I was given a small pot of honey as my birthday gift! Thank you Portland :)

I had the tasting menu and it was really good, balanced, and the right portion sizes per course (IMO). My favorites were the asparagus and the sirloin. The welcome snack rolls are really good. The homemade lemonade was tasty but a little too sweet, the ice, melting and drinking it slow slowly helped. Also, a really good Americano, would go back just for that.

Ate here for the first time and got their 10y anniversary set menu for £55. It was such a steal! I can tell they are keeping the highest standard including for the promotional set menus. The dishes were excellent and the service was great. I don’t eat pork and alcohol and I missed notifying them in advance but the staffs and chefs were so helpful. They took the note and modified the dishes on the spot without leaving me feeling any less from the food. Every dish is rich in flavours and unique in a safe way. The chef/staffs also gave some extra nibbles which made me super full and happy beyond my expectations. I’d come back and would recommend people to come!

I went to dinner with my work team last night to Portland and we weren't disappointed. We were able to have the private room which made it feel very exclusive. The food on the whole was delicious. We had the set menu and the and the welcome snacks stand out - the mushroom macaron was outstanding. I had the rabbit starter which was tasty, followed by the monkfish which was nice but didn't wow, followed by the tarte tatin which I would definitely go back for! All the dishes were presented beautifully as you can see from the photos. The service from Lucy was great. Overall, Google doesn't do half stars as I would give the food and overall score 4.5. The reason is that most of the food was delicious but some was just nice; and 2.5 hours on the leather chairs wasn't totally comfortable (fabric material would be better). Thank you Portland!

As a food blogger, I don't recommend it because the experience is not good. The crust of the steak Wellington is too soft, as if it has been left out for a long time. It is said to be four courses, but the first one is too funny. It is just some snacks and desserts that are usually given away. I spent the money for two, but only got one? Others get one each. It was said that they could give a small dessert on special days, but there was nothing. At the end, there was no charity donation? I will not come again next time

Rushed service, feeling undervalued as a customer I had booked the Portland 10th anniversary 5-course tasting menu for a solo lunch at midday on a Saturday. At the start of the meal I was not informed by the server that my counter seat was only reserved for 1.5 hours, and was not under the impression that this was an “express lunch” when I had booked online. I do not think 1.5h is sufficient time to properly enjoy a 5-course tasting menu. After my main course, I was informed by the server that the restaurant was “running late” and that I had to give up my table by 1.30pm. The server recommended that I quickly have the pre-dessert and take my apple tarte tartin dessert to go. It was promptly presented to me in a takeaway box without a carrier bag, and the takeaway box was slightly sticky on the outside because some of the glaze had got on it. While I was still having the pre-dessert course, the petit fours were served and I was quickly presented the bill and my coat. This rushed experience was all a bit of a shock to me. I feel that customers should be informed how long they have the table for at the start of the meal, so that we can manage our expectations. Even so, I feel that 1.5h is not enough time to savour a 5-course tasting menu. I left the restaurant feeling like I was rushed out the door and felt unvalued as a customer. I last visited Portland in the summer of 2023 and the food and service was excellent. I hope this is a one-off issue and that better planning/time management for tasting menus is considered and and clearer information is provided to the customer in the future.

Había reservado el menú degustación de 5 platos del décimo aniversario para un almuerzo a solas al mediodía de un sábado. Al comienzo de la comida no me informó el servidor que mi asiento del mostrador solo estaba reservado para 1 . 5 horas, y no tenía la impresión de que esto era un “almuerzo exprés” cuando había reservado en línea. No creo que 1. 5 h es tiempo suficiente para disfrutar correctamente de un menú degustación de 5 platos. Después de mi plato principal, el servidor me informó que el restaurante estaba “llegando tarde” y que necesitaban el respaldo para la 1. 30 pm. El servidor me recomendó que tuviera rápidamente el pre-postre y tomar mi tarta de manzana postre de tarta para llevar. El postre se me presentó rápidamente en una caja de comida para llevar sin bolsa de transporte, y la caja de comida para llevar era ligeramente pegajosa en el exterior porque parte del glaseado se había puesto en ella. Mientras todavía estaba teniendo el curso de pre-postre, los petit fours fueron servidos y rápidamente me dieron la cuenta y mi abrigo. Esta experiencia apresurada fue un poco impactante para mí. Creo que los clientes deben ser informados de cuánto tiempo tienen la mesa al comienzo de la comida, para que podamos gestionar nuestras expectativas. Aun así, siento que 1. 5 h no es tiempo suficiente para saborear un menú degustación de 5 platos. Salí del restaurante sintiendo que me apresuraban a salir por la puerta y me sentía desvalorizado como cliente. Visité Portland por última vez en el verano de 2023 y la comida y el servicio era excelente. Espero que se trate de una cuestión puntual y que se estudie una mejor planificación/gestión del tiempo para los menús degustación y que se facilite información más clara al cliente en el futuro.

Calidad y calidad de la comida excelente. Servicio excelente. El entrante (cangrejo en una salsa cremosa) estaba en el lado salado para mi gusto. El plato principal seleccionado fue morir por venado acompañado de terrina de remolacha. La remolacha fue cocinada y exhibida inteligentemente y me pareció sorprendentemente comestible, aunque generalmente odio la remolacha. El postre estaba delicioso. Lo que fue realmente decepcionante y que definitivamente milita en contra de un regreso fue la disposición del restaurante - dos filas de mesas como una cantina de obras y la cocina abierta (algo pasada en la actualidad). No hay atmósfera o ambiente memorable. Botellas de vino muy caras incluso para un establecimiento Michelin de una estrella.

If you want food that tastes the best, rest assured, the food here is stellar. Modern British/ European style, generally it's an assortment of small bites with brilliant and complex flavours and textures that combine light and rich with near-perfect balance. The atmosphere is low key, but that helps create a non stuffy vibe. Professional, attentive service. £150 each for four courses (which you'll definitely want) plus a drink. It's a bit dear, but honestly, you easily get what you pay for, and when you're finished, you'll probably think you could've willingly paid more. Order the welcome snacks and mont blanc for dessert.

Is there a restaurant that you've always loved, one that has stayed at the top of your favorite restaurant list for years? A place where you and your friends go to celebrate all of life’s important moments, and even after a breakup, when you're feeling down, seeing an available table there is enough to instantly lift your mood—because who needs a relationship when you can have great food? You hope it wins every restaurant accolade in the world, but there's a bit of a dilemma—once the whole world falls in love with it, it'll become so much harder to get a table. Portland is that place for me. I’m so happy to see it reopen after a renovation this year, and I love it just as much as ever.

What a disappointment. Firstly, the food. Have you ever heard British cuisine get stick for being bland and boring? This place is the reason why. The flavours were incredibly dull, even when a lot was actually going on with the dish, you could only taste one or two things. Besides the underwhelming ingredients, the execution was also poor - the lamb main course was 60% fat and it hadn’t been rendered in the slightest, making it difficult and, frankly, unpleasant to eat. The only way to describe the wine pairings is “inoffensive” and that’s a compliment. The wine added absolutely nothing to the dishes, poorly selected wine with absolutely zero imagination. The only saving grace was the service which was very professional and friendly but unfortunately it doesn’t make up for everything else. If you’re after great British cuisine but want a positive experience, try The Dysart in Petersham or Dinner by Heston in Knightsbridge. Portland is not on par (or even in the same league) as those places.

Who would ever think that a restaurant across the street from the Horse and Groom pub could be so spectacular. Unbelievable experience. We had the tasting menu with the wine pairing. The food is amazing and can stand on its own but it was clear that the wine steward and the chef worked hard to create unique matches. Every dish/wine course was so satisfying that we wanted a second serving. And the service team, lead by a very skilled Italian woman, superbly complements each course with their explanations of the food/wine and their enthusiasm. We didn’t go to the restaurant because of its Michelin star but it was clear why they earned it. Our hats off to the entire team. Amazing experience.

Thanks for a very nice meal celebrating our anniversary. The food, wine, and service were all top notch. Special call out to the kitchen who managed our slightly unusual order - to have one each of the starters - with flair. Particularly enjoyed the pea & smoked egg dish, most unusual. Will be back again.

A great location for a business meeting and topped off when you walk out of the restaurant and your guest says that it was the best restaurant that they have been to in a long while in London! (and he eats out a lot). What more could you ask for. It's not surprising that Portland are consistently rated one of the best restaurants in London!

Really kind and welcoming they went the extra mile for my girlfriends birthday and they were very kind. Food was lovely 10/10 and was truly a great experience one I say I may never forget. All I can say is a big thank you to the staff and there team and big well done on such a great restaurant.

A wonderful experience. This restaurant isn't cheap but worth every penny. The staff were fantastic, they made our birthday celebrations even more special. We had the tasting menu. (Didn't go for the wine pairing) recommendations for wine choices were great. We loved every dish and would recommend this as a special treat restaurant.

I was quite sceptic when my fiance wanted to go into this place, because, generally speaking, in Michelin stars restaurants, you pay for the experience but when you go out you will be still hungry. This restaurant, changed my idea about this. We chose the "DINNER — 3 COURSES" and each one chose something different so we could share. Every dish was truly exceptional. The service was impeccable too. We really have the feeling to be special for the whole dinner. It was a really great experience.

Food good - if a little fussy, service excellent. But it is phenomenally expensive - well over £100 per person, even without wine. I enjoyed the meal and knew, with a Michelin star, it would be expensive, but this seems over the top to me. I doubt I'll go again even though, in all other respects, I had an enjoyable evening.

So I actually went to Portland twice in one week - once for dinner & once for lunch. I had been here once the previous year, on my visit to London, so I knew what to expect.    1st visit - dinner - a compote with bacon pieces, winter Manhattan, then Partridge agnolotti, salsify, parsnip, smoked bacon & horseradish with many flavours (very nice), then Devonshire duck breast, confit leg, beetroot, clementine & chard with Sand carrots, pickled turnip, London honey & chervil. Everything was very nice and I enjoyed all the different tastes. To me, this adds to the dining experience past the functional needing to eat phase to a fun level of tempting your palette with a variety of flavours. The only annoyance was the optional service charge that is/was automatically added and, as it was Xmas, a charity donation was automatically added to the check - - if it's optional then DON'T ADD IT! 2nd visit - lunch - compote with bacon pieces, and Clove Negroni, then Partridge agnolotti, salsify, parsnip, smoked bacon & horseradish, then beef and artichoke dish for the main entrée, and dessert - dark chocolate parfait. All good and will return this next year for a new experience. I read another review on Portland about its Michelin star and the complacency that sets in with the restaurateurs once they get a star... Although my experience with Portland has always been good, in general I completely agree.  I have been to several Michelin star restaurants thinking that indicated a superlative food experience, then sadly confronted with the reality of being disappointed that those restaurants rest on their laurels and don't live up to their Michelin star rating after the day it was rated. In my humble assessment, I enjoy going to Portland but would recommend going once every (guessing) ~6 months or whenever the menu has a major change.

Wonderful food, amazing service and must be close to being one of the best restaurants in London! If you haven't been, it's definitely worth a visit!

Brilliant restaurant, everything you would want to in a 1 star venue. Inventive, perfectly executed food, great service leaning towards friendly and informal, all in a relaxed and aesthetically pleasing setting (freshly renovated). Hard to fault in any way. Highly recommended for that special occasion when you are pushing the boat out a bit!

It was lovely to be back at Portland yesterday after it reopened following its refresh and new look. The restaurant looked terrific, the front-of-house team had a sense of energy and enthusiasm which added to the experience, and the food was first-class. How the chefs create such beautiful dishes comprising of such complementary flavours is an art in itself. I highly recommend the mackerel starter and pollock main - both brought together a medley of wonderful flavours. I hope they are not just a feature for August 🤞.

Excellent evening for 6 persons. Tasting menu provided lovely variety. Good wine list. All diners enjoyed the delicious food with the hogget and mackerel dishes being the favourites. The service was very good, attentive but not intrusive.

Nice friendly service and good food with their set menu. Only issue was that there were too many items on the menu with supplement price.

I went here in 2016 and am still thinking about it. It was our best meal in London.

This pub is perfect if you are visit the British museum. It is right opposite the museum and you can eat here after visiting the museum. The food is like in all pubs, I decided to eat Fish and Chips, the traditional meal English and were just as I remembered, bland (yet when I return to London again ask sure).

Shocking service, an hour to get a drink, staff walking around doing nothing, and one drink was wrong twice and didn't even arrive.
