Nattys Jerk - (Near Hampshire, South East)

Alexander Fergusson-Cooper If I could give this place one star I would... They have ruined pizza for me, it was by far the best Ive had, no other will compare. My partner and I shared the nduja/scotch bonnet and the chicken/paneer. Both were truly superb. The dough had a terrific flavour, but the toppings on each were perfectly balanced and flavoursome. We started with the cauliflower hummus - something we await to recreate! The service was outstanding, knowledgeable and friendly, without being over the top, again, a perfect balance. Wine list fantastic and comprehensive (the reason we came here - (fathers a wine merchant!) maître d was knowledgeable and showed us the bottle of wine we were curious about. Atmosphere was warm, welcoming, relaxed, and the use of acoustic tiles on the ceiling work as both an interesting feature and more importantly to reduce the sound in the bar/restaurant. I am hugely disappointed we are only in Portsmouth for an evening - had we live in the vicinity, we would surely adopt The A Bar as a regular venue. A venue for everyone, we were made to feel like long standing customers - warm and welcoming. If ever in Portsmouth again, we will rush back!

Sallyanne Curd Love the quirky modern take on how sailors would decorate a restaurant. Food was fresh and hot, they let you have more than 1 sausage!

William Blunt Possibly the most authentic Japanese food I’ve had in the UK. The food is delicious and fabulously well presented and the setting of the restaurant is excellent; very small, but feels just right for the experience. It’s not somewhere you go for a quick bite, it’s more of the centrepiece of the evening. Absolute love it, I’ve been here twice and would recommend to anybody.

Giuliana Figuccio Lovely spot for breakfast and lunch in central Portsmouth Brunch & Barista, located on Commercial Road in Portsmouth, is a wonderful place for breakfast or lunch, right in a very central and convenient location. The place itself is really lovely, decorated in a cheerful and welcoming style that makes you feel comfortable straight away. Everything is very clean, including the bathrooms, which is always appreciated. The staff are genuinely kind and friendly. A special mention goes to Alper, who served us today, he was polite, warm, and very pleasant, making the experience even better. The food is truly delicious, I had already tried it before, and it confirmed how good it is. Everything was fresh, well prepared, and enjoyable. The Wi-Fi could be an issue, as there is no signal inside, but they do provide their own Wi-Fi network that customers can connect to, so no problem. Overall, a very positive experience. Highly recommended if you’re in Portsmouth and looking for a nice, friendly place to eat.

Eloise Draper We had a lovely afternoon and excellent service from our waiter Paul who took care of us and was such a lovely fellow. The food was fantastic and we really enjoyed our experience. I had the mushroom starter, Trout for main and Chocolate praline, my friend had beetroot for starter, pumpkin tartlet for main and also chocolate praline. It was delicious! Great atmosphere and a relaxed experience allowing my friend and I to have a good chat.

Shuet Han Tsui We needed somewhere to nearby to eat after visiting the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. At 4.00PM on a Sunday, choices can be limited. We picked Lush Bites because it was a short walk away, near the car park, and well rated. And I can see why it was well rated. The service was excellent. The person serving us was super polite and friendly. The burgers were excellent. We went for the BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger and Devils Bite. Both delicious. It was still very hot when it arrived, super tasty, and well put together. Love a burger that does not fall apart as you eat it. We were not that hungry, so didnt go for any sides. The chicken wings and loaded fries looked tempting.
