Reviews in Portsmouth

Food tasted fine, though only just warm, and we also didn’t receive the side dish we’d ordered. Main issue was lack of staff, though the guy who was working tried his best to keep all the plates spinning and was cheerful and helpful throughout. However, there was still a long wait to take the order.

came here for my birthday with a few of my mates and the food was a bit hit and miss really some off it was lovely absolutely brilliant but some of the dishes was quite cold but apart from that service was great

Really great food and environment. Good waiting staff and cocktails.

First visit, Staff worked above a beyond, pleasingly motivated to provide a great service. The food choices were exceptional but the quality of a few weren’t very good, due to the lower quality produce used (cuts of meat) on some dishes and the huge variety being offered. It is extremely difficult to keep on top of every single item. I am myself a very picky eater and worked in the cater industry for over 30years as a chef and manager so possibly over critical…. Overall we enjoyed our evening and will definitely return at some point…

A very pleasant lunch with our friends. A fantastic variety and selection of Food from around the World. The Staff are very friendly and helpful. Will definately continue to visit SPOONS PORTSMOUTH

Came in for my grandsons birthday, my first time and found it a bit hit and miss! Quite a few dishes were cold, most of the pork was hard and dry but there were some really nice dishes too.

Food is usually pretty good and topped up, thus time however some of the chicken satay was a little undercook. Pineapple rice was not great, really undercooked and not nice. As usual only one soft drink machine working (been like that for about a year!!!!). The toilets are disgusting. One broken, one blocked, one with no lock. Really not good and has been like this for a very long time. About time they invested some money in smartening the whole place considering how popular it is. That said, staff are always friendly and welcoming. Just needs some money spending on the place

Some food was nice, some not but luckily there's a lot to choose from if you are a meat eater. I found the options for vegetarians a bit boring and not very nice. Kids loved it but as our 11yr old is over 150cm, she was full price and no way she ate £21 worth of food. Maybe there should be a price in the middle for older children. The people cleaning up were brilliant, our dirty plates were cleared almost instantly every time and any mess anyone had made seemed to be dealt with very quick too. I wont return but give it a go and see what you think. Im not a great fan of buffets so prob didnt help!

Really really enjoyed our dinner out here for my boyfriend’s birthday. Lovely food, lovely restaurant and lovely people serving. Huge shout out to the gentleman who served us! Thank you so much for a great dinner out! We will be back

First time I've been to this restaurant but not the last. Menu choices were good service fantastic and the food was sublime. Great flavours so do tasty

First time visiting this place - it was a little quiet due to the time of day (expected). Couldn’t fault the service. The food was so delicious! Would 100% recommend and come back.

Visited a couple of times now and would highly recommend - great food, atmosphere and the staff are super nice.

A family favourite Always try to visit a least once a year Great range of food Great service Thank you spoon

Very good quality and choice of food. Staff very helpful when I was enquiring about halal options. Clean and hygienic space. Definitely recommend.

Excellent food quick service would definitely recommend and come again

We attended the restaurant as a family of 4. First time at a SPOON. We booked for 5pm on a Monday. All staff we came across were professional, friendly and accommodating. Huge variety of foods, and plenty that our children could try alongside their regular choices. We visited to celebrate my husband's birthday and will definitely be returning customers.

Absolutely amazing service from start to finish! Greeted and shown to our table by friendly polite staff, range of food on offer was simply outstanding and never ran out as staff was always replenishing once got down low. Desserts had a wide variety too, plates where taken promptly

Really nice food, great location before a trip to the Guildhall, simple but tasty menu allows for fast service. Good selection of drinks and hot sauces!
