Reviews
This cute little tapas restaurant tucked away in Salford is so lovely, the food is exceptional and the atmosphere is warm and friendly. Although the staff were attentive and helpful I found that our waitress was taking our plates away too quickly and it felt as though she was hurrying us to leave rather than letting us relax and digest our food. For that I gave it a 4 instead of a 5 as that was the only let down of our experience here. Highly recommend the Rabbit Al Ajillo!
Nice spot to sit outside, we came for a midweek lunch and it was pretty quiet. The staff were attentive and friendly and everything came out quickly.
For 2 we got scratchings, charcuterie, cheese, croquetas, fried squid, stewed rabbit and patatas bravas, then also caved and got dessert. This was massive overkill! If I were to go back, I would not get the pork scratchings, which were a bit bland, and the patatas bravas which were not very crisp and also a bit bland.
Everything else was lovely however, especially the selection of meats, the rabbit and the tocino de cielo (though a half portion would be more than enough!).
On balance, though very enjoyable, I found this quite overpriced coming in at £40/pp. I'm surprised there's no midweek lunch deal, and think that would be a hit.
Excellent food. Excellent vibes. Excellent service.
We tried some 10 dishes, my favourites:
1) the quince and cheese dish. Just phenomenal
2) Padron peppers were solid
3) Loved the tomato salad
The meat dishes were really good too. My favourite was the Iberico slices (pink), followed by the Chorizo and then the chicken. That said though, these are the priciest options so could drop them if you’re interested in trying more food.
The patatas bravas were okay. My least favourite was the confit peppers.
I’m so happy to have found Porta a few years ago, and now it’s my favourite tapas in Manchester. :) The staff are lovely, the food is tasty, and I love the atmosphere there. :)
Most recently I went and had the good fortune to be met by Ellie who was so kind to find me and my friends a super comfy table as soon as one became available and help us move from our high table.
We also met Harry, who was really attentive and told us all about the menu. He also had great energy! :)
I would highly recommend eating here if you are ever in Salford. :)
Such a gorgeous authentic tapas place! Food was stunning, the sangria is a must and the olives are to die for! Staff were all super lovely & service was 10/10! Can’t wait to come back ☺️
