Amazing Amazing Amazing. Celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary. The staff gave us free bubbly. The menu was outstanding. We loved the starters a bit more than the main course. But all in all delicious and special. The views outside the restaurant are breath taking.
Reviewing the restaurant (when will Google sort out the dilemma of eating places sometimes being sleeping places outside the US?!)
With the closure of Restaurant 27 in Southsea, the other numerical restaurant in SE Hampshire - 36 On The Quay - has the field almost to itself at the top end of the market. There are others, but these two stood out.
It will now be even harder to get a reservation here but the wait is worth it. The food is really excellent and always a friendly smile with the service. The menus are different and unusual, miles away from the gastropub efforts more representative of middle England.
Excellent wine list although the range of beers is minimal.
Highly, highly recommended.
Parking can be tricky on summer weekend evenings.
It was a birthday treat to be taken here. Haven't been for many years as it had a reputation for good food, but sky-high prices.
My experience, though, was of excellent restaurant, with good service; not pushy or slow, but attentive and efficient.
Lovely ambience, not trying to hard, clean, and elegant.
The 'tasters' at the start were delightful... really did wake up the taste buds!
Wine was OK, and the starters prompt and delicious - smoked eel and pork belly not an obvious combination but scrummy.
My main - T bone pork - beautifully cooked and the accompanying date chutney perfect!
Partner had pork fillet, and tender and light it was.
The pre-pudding Q was quirky but as a palate cleanser, ideal.
We only had room for a shared pudding... Rhubarb and Custard in a unique display. Yum!
The bill? Palatable!!!
