Captain's Table

Not sure why this place was so unoccupied, the food was delicious. The starter fish cakes were fantastic, and the tartar sauce was so incredibly flavorful. The main entrees were also great- the duck leg was decadent and the steak was perfectly cooked medium rare. The duck has rich mango, sweet potato, and savory duck plus savory onions and chili oil. Complex and intense. The steak was perfectly seasoned and flanked by a wild mushroom mix that left nothing to be desired. For desert the chocolate mousse was rich and accompanied with almond cookies and fresh fruit. Sam the chef is excellent and anyone wanting food should go for the multiple course meal. highly recommend

One of the best restaurant in Portsmouth. This is one of my home to home place. The kitchen has been renovated recently. The new dishes were undoubtedly successful. I opted for the chefs recommended -the duck. The presentation was a work of art with the dark cooker the to profession juicy inside and crisp outsiide. The mango reduction gave the dish an wonderful exotic twist. The bust of sweetness that complemented the rich flavour of the meat beautifully. The dish was accompaniment by some roasted sweet potato and some seasonal salad. It gave a satisfying balance and fulfillment. Definitely will go back and have more!

The dessert was a delight! The coffee tasted like was from a petrol station coffee machine! Not fresh grounded probably! The room very elegant! Even there wasn't proper linen on tables! Easy to wipe I presume. THE STAFF were very friendly and attentive. I enjoyed my short visit while waiting for My couch to arrive. Greetings from London!
