  “Visited for the first time tonight and will definitely be coming back, service was brilliant and friendly. Clean and welcoming decor and the food was amazing. Ate out other places this week and was disappointed by the the calamari so was keen to try it here and it was spot on !! I had Paella for main and whilst I normally prefer a dry rice this was beautiful with a great selection of fresh seafood. Perfect mid week date night , excited to make it a regular spot for our family as our youngest loves seafood”

  “Had a very bad experience here on my visit on Monday. See what we bought below and what was wrong with it Starters Calamari: was plain, greasy Wings: probably some of the worst I’ve had, they felt like it was reheated and not fresh at all - flavour was ok but ruined by how old it was. Mains: Burger and half lobster, this was bad and just bad the burger was greasy, patty not cooked and lacked any sense of flavour whatsoever. The lobster was a disaster, no flavour and did not feel fresh at all. My wife had the lobster main and she had the same experience, lacked flavour and was really not fresh at all.l, desert was alright. The crazy part about all this is that not only was the food bad but I paid £100 for this! I don’t think I will ever return.”

  “Absolutely fantastic Portuguese restaurant! The food was authentic, fresh, and full of flavour. Every dish was cooked to perfection, and the portions were generous. The staff were incredibly welcoming, attentive, and made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. The atmosphere was warm and relaxed, making it the perfect place for a family meal or a night out with friends. I highly recommend trying the grilled meats and seafood—they were outstanding. I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended🙌❤️”

  “The second time we have eaten at The Algarve Grill , we are not local but if we were we would eat there more often ! The food as before was delicious I had sea bass and hubby had steak both equally impressive. I then had the Portuguese ‘ cake ‘ for desert which was lovely. Staff were attentive and service was perfect . The atmosphere is great-highly recommend this restaurant and we will definitely come back .”

  “★☆☆☆☆ – One of the most unwelcoming dining experiences I’ve had in Southsea We visited on a Friday evening after seeing that the restaurant’s closing time was advertised as 11:00pm. We arrived at around 9:50pm, expecting to enjoy a relaxed meal after a long working week. Instead, before we’d even had a chance to sit down, introduce ourselves, or receive so much as a “good evening”, the first thing the waiter (Philipe) did was pull his phone out of his pocket and check the time. That pretty much set the tone for the entire experience. Within seconds of arriving we were told we needed to place our order within five minutes because the kitchen was closing. Let that sink in for a moment. The restaurant itself wasn’t due to close for well over an hour, yet customers arriving during advertised opening hours were made to feel like an inconvenience simply for walking through the door. Good hospitality costs nothing. A simple “Welcome, please take a seat, just to let you know the kitchen is closing soon” would have completely changed the experience. Instead, we were made to feel rushed from the second we entered until the second we left. Sadly, the food didn’t make up for the service. Portions were small, prices were high, and several dishes felt as though they had been reheated rather than freshly prepared. Nothing we ordered justified the prices being charged. The entire meal felt like it was being thrown together as quickly as possible so the staff could get us out of the door. Throughout the evening, Philipe continued to rush around the restaurant, abruptly dropping plates onto tables and clearing things away almost before diners had finished. There was no warmth, no attentiveness, and certainly no sense that customers were valued. People seem to forget that eating out is a luxury. Customers work hard all week to earn the money they choose to spend in restaurants. When they arrive during advertised opening hours, they should be welcomed and made to feel appreciated, not treated like an inconvenience for daring to turn up. Between the rude service, being rushed from start to finish, the poor-quality food, small portions and inflated prices, this was genuinely one of the worst restaurant experiences I’ve had in the Southsea area. There are plenty of excellent restaurants nearby that understand hospitality and appreciate their customers. My advice would be simple: spend your money somewhere else. I certainly won’t be returning.”
