One of the best restaurants in Cardiff. The service is top-notch, food is excellent but expensive. But since we were celebrating my wife’s birthday it was worth the money.
There were 5 of us and it came to around £65 per person for a 3 course lunch, without alcohol.
Very nice seafood restaurant in Cardiff seaside. Plenty of seafood with a big counter for self selection, with different choices of cooking too. They also got a nice fridge for dry-aged steak.
The restaurant is quite busy, and probably need to book in advance.
Amazing seafood and very good location here. We came here by car, and there is a free parking lot for the restaurant. Just need to do a registration at the reception desk of the restaurant.
One more thing, remember to make the reservation before you come, it’s really popular 😍👍
We were so happy to secure a same dat booking. Restaurant was busy. The atmosphere, service and food was excellent! Absolutely loved my lamb and mint sauce main. The only small issue was that i specifically asked if I could have a small salad instead of the starter options on the board. Who ever was behind the counter, said "sure, we can do that for you." My husband paid the bill, gave a good tip, whilst I went on to the car. He arrived a few moments later, with receipt in hand. He realised that we were charged for the salad. I know it's only 5 pounds extra, but we are tourists and 5 pounds is 5 pounds. We have started to realise that it is common to be charged "extra" without warrant. A little disappointed as we thought we were going to have a near perfect experience.
The atmosphere & food are very nice. Definitely a good place for gathering !
Really looked forward to my 55th Birthday dinner on Saturday evening, we arrived and was seated just after ordering drinks from the bar.
We went to the seafood section and selected our starters & main dishes , I also ordered a portion of garlic bread. We received our salad bowls really filled up our bowls with a nice selection of salad. Returned to our table where our garlic bread was already their and very hot. Our starters arrived very quickly just as we had finished our salad . Our mains were perfectly cooked. Dover sole and Skate wing we recommend.
5 stars for service food and atmosphere.
Holidays finished with a diner at this chic restaurant. Very nice that we could choose our food at the counter. Staff was very nice to our 1,5 year old toddler. Unfortunately there was no high chair available for her. Very good food quality. Lot of choice. Free parking.
Definitely, I will be back.
The food was amazing!
But it's a bit confusing how to order and probably due to the number of people (a lot) they were rushing you to order!
Same for the table service, I have to say that I can tell that the staff were doing they best they could.
A lovely restaurant in a lovely place and parking is not an issue!
I was lucky enough to visit El Puerto last night. I was impressed by the whole experience, the staff were very helpful and attentive. Our party included 4 children under 10 and the patience shown by the staff was noticeable, as meeting the needs of a table of 18 is no mean feat. I'll end this review by saying well done EL Puerto, and a double well done for my Hake, undoubtedly the best I've tasted 👍👍👍👍👍
The food was excellent. My prime sirloin steak was succulent. Fries were tasty.
Only slight problem was one of the drinking glasses was dirty, and I noticed many of them on our table for 6 were scratched. They need to inspect their glasses and replace with new if they are worn out or dirty.
Everything top notch,food fab,great staff,and a great wine list 👌
Got taken here for a surprise 40th birthday lunch. Have lived in the vale for 11 years and have never eaten here or come across this little gem 💖💞 food and service was amazing, will certainly return. Thank you for an awesome time
Always a great meal at El Peurtos. Food excellent, service excellent, atmosphere great. The only down side for me is, I think the food is a little over priced.
Brilliant place... awesome freshly made food and excellent presentation of the dishes.
Very welcoming and made space for us even though we did not have a reservation on a busy Sunday afternoon.
Absolutely fantastic. Would highly recommend. Top quality ingredients, a lovely atmosphere and warm, friendly service.
