Thank you Maria and team!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Found finally an authentic delicious Spanish restaurant. The bonus is it’s just next door to where I live. A very good addition to my list of favourite authentic restaurants. Maria and the whole staff are friendly on my first visit. Imagine being a regular patron which I absolutely intend to. Ambiance and crowd that night were very decent and encouraging for a return visit. Great job El Portòn. See you soon

    We had an absolutely wonderful meal at El Porton. Both the food and the service were outstanding. Drinks were refilled without asking and food came out very quickly - but with enough time for us to chat and enjoy the atmosphere. Wait staff were super friendly and helpful. The desserts were amazing! We couldn’t decide which one to get so we got all 3 and shared. So glad we did because each one was so delicious. Highly recommend El Porton (and the white wine sangria). We will definitely be going back.
