We ate here on 02 June 2019, at lunchtime. The food was enjoyable and good quality as it had been on our previous visits (of which there have been several over the past few years) but our short visit yesterday was spoiled by the fact that we were rushed to pay up and leave at the end of the meal.We were in the restaurant for barely an hour, which we know because we picked my father up on the other side of Altrincham at just after 12.15, drove into the town, parked up and walked to the restaurant. We left Porta at just after 1.30. We had a selection of tapas, two glasses of sherry, a glass of wine and some water - the food arrived promptly with the exception of the croquetas which mysteriously didn't appear until everything else had been practically eaten.Around 1.20, our plates were cleared (including one that still had olives on it - I only learned this afterwards or I would've have asked for it to be left with us) and we were asked if we wanted anything else. We said no and that we'd take the bill. This too arrived promptly and we carried on finishing our drinks and chatting. A different server came over and looked at the plate with the bill on twice over the next ten minutes before stopping and saying (this is a quote): "Are you planning on paying the bill or are just going to sit around talking?" My partner pointed out that my elderly father still had almost half a glass of wine and the waitress walked off without saying anything. We put cash on the plate with the bill while my father speeded up drinking his wine, she returned and silently took the money away and then returned the change equally silently. No smiles, no "Thank you", no "I hope you enjoyed your meal" and certainly no apology for her rudeness.I could understand the rush to change tables around if the restaurant were busy but there were only two other tables occupied and two other front-of-house staff were stood chatting and laughing behind the bar for the whole duration of this sorry episode (around 10 to 15 minutes). So there should have been no issue with our finishing our drinks at our leisure.Frankly, the attitude towards us was disgraceful and there is clearly a need for some staff training here. Perhaps if this is the new standard of service at Porta it accounts for why the restaurant was more than half empty when the rest of Altrincham seemed so lively? Certainly we won't be returning.

We have been to Evuna Manchester on a number of occasions and loved the food. The problem has been the expensive car parking weâve had to pay and so we havenât been for some time. We were delighted to discover this one in Altrincham. A very cosy setting and the usual high standard of tapas. We shared chicken in a cream and paprika sauce, a very rich chorizo, aubergine topped with honey and pine nuts which was to die for and prawns cooked in olive oil, chilli and garlic. I enjoyed a chilled glass of white La Mancha wine. The service was friendly and efficient. Looking forward to a return visit. Thankyou so much ! For this lovely review it means so much to us at our new branch

We visited for breakfast and the bacon is possibly the best bacon I have ever had. There is a good choice of dishes all made with top quality ingredients. The bacon is excellent. The layout of means you can pick a choose what you want from which vendor. I would recommend a visit, but be warned it is a bit pricey!
