Sant-Yago

Reviewed By Timothy S

Buzzy tapas Portsmouth style with inventive drinks offer. Clearly the place for professionals to come with friends for bright conversations - though obviously not exclusively or why were we there?. The tapas themselves are mostly small portions of what would normally be a main course and very well cooked and presented. Big salads. Nice crockery. Lots of veggie , gluten free and other dietary options. Service a little on the flurried side but not disagreeably so and pleasantly amiable.

El Toro is one of those restaurants that often people recommend in Portsmouth and I was surprised I hadn't been sooner myself. I love myself a steak dinner and its my 'go to' meal if we are out and treating ourselves to a 'nice' meal. I booked a table online because I was conscious of the fact so many people had been, I didn't want to turn up on the evening and find they couldn't seat us, especially as it was for my boyfriend's birthday- Turns out it was quite quiet and a booking wasn't really necessary but glad I took the precaution nonetheless. We were welcomed warmly and taken to a table that wasn't so warm. I could feel the air con right on us so decided to leave my jacket on but it didn't bother me too much. Myself and my boyfriend both order an 8oz Sirloin steak with steak cut chips cooked medium rare. Our meals came out really quickly which was great as I was really looking forward to it because of all the recommendations. I don't want to say I was disappointed because the food tasted lovely, cooked to our requirements and couldn't fault it but couldn't help but have the feeling of ' I've had better' . Maybe I should have chosen a different cut of meat? I can't put my finger on it , I just wasn't overwhelmed by my meal, the chips were really good and I really enjoyed my cocktail. I chose sticky toffee pudding as a desert which was truly delicious and my boyfriend had the cheesecake ( the waitress had to find out the flavour which was being served that day which was a little surprising as expected her to know but thought she may be new?) I believe the flavour was caramel and pear which he enjoyed very much.I would like to come back and experience something else as I know they often have different offers and deals on at different times and would like to return to give it another review. I will be back!Dear Em,Thank you for a review of El Toro. Thank you for the compliments of the dining experience and we hope to see you again very soon.

Found this restaurant after a walk along Southsea sea front. The service was very good and the Tapas fantastic. A very good venue with friends. Will be back.
