La Tasca Restaurants

Nice location on the water! Portsmouth isn't the prettiest beach town i've ever been to, but this location is nice.

Took ages for us to get our food. Or maybe I was just starved and it seemed to take long. But when it got here, i was pretty shocked by the quantity. Lots of food! We got the sharing platter. Not exactly authentic spanish food, but was pretty good.

Nice food, fantastic tapas, great stop in a hard day of shopping at gunwharf.


reasonable prices, good service

My first meal of tapas at La Tasca was very enjoyable. Sadly my second meal of Paella was my last there.


It took a whole hour from arriving to being served our meal, and at no point did the waiter tell us we would have to wait this long.


When the paella arrived, it was absolutely ruined by the fact that it had not been stirred, and when you took a forkful you were assaulted by a mouthful of pure salt.


It was such a disappointment, as the paella smelled lovely, and is one of my favourite dishes.


We didn't even receive an apology, so I won't be returning in a hurry.

La Tasca, fabulous place to eat. In my opinion La Tasca is enjoyed more if you go along with friends, the dishes are the perfect size for sharing!


This place is great if you are planning a birthday, the guys go all out to make you feel welcome! Balloons ahoy!


Make sure you phone in advance if you are planning to go with more than 4 people, they book up fast!

This restaurant is situated in a very outstanding place. You can enjoy fantastic sights having your meal. More than that there are lots of shops there so you can have a perfect rest in La Tasca after doing your shopping.


This restaurant has got upstairs and downstairs seats.The design of the restaurant is very authentic so you can feel a breath of Spain.


The staff are very friendly and polite.They offer fairly good service. I have been there several times and every time I was absolutely satisfied by their service.


I really enjoyed their food. I liked tapas most of all. It's a nice place to visit in a company of friends to share it.

I love this place, food is good and hot which good prices. The resturant is well decorated and the staff speak Spanish. there is plenty of choice from the menu and can always ask for recomendations.

It's rubbish. Don't bother, unless you have a free hour to wait for fake Spanish food

I really enjoy eating at La Tasca. It has a fun atmsophere and the decor makes you feel relaxed. You can choose from a really good range of tapas dishes from manchego cheese, salads, chicken croquettes to paella all a few pounds each. It makes a fun meal to share as you can order loads of dishes and each have a piece. I have always pleased pleased by the portions and the quality of the food. I do have Spanish friends who were less impressed but to me the food is fresh and delicious. I think it is reasonable value too. Enjoy the wine menu and sangria if you go for that!

Went for xmas dinner so maybe not entirely representative but wasnt too impressed. Been once before to another La Tasca and liked it but nothing particularly stood out beyond the novelty; the xmas dinner was quite disappointing though.


Pretty pricey (especially for drinks!) and starter of 'olives and bread' was disappointing - served vinegar instead of vinnegreat, not great for dipping! Lots of olives though. Still nothin on the main dishes was all that fancy, very average. Staff werent great either, didnt seem to be able to work out a good system of dealing with lots of plates (something you would think would be day to day in tapas?) and lots of people at table.


Basically a chain experience when it comes down to it! Their spanish angle doesnt really perform that well in comparison to other places in gunwharf.

I have been to several of these outlet's all over the country and I find myself to be either very lucky or more able to allow short comings of this chain as I find the food, the place and the people to be friendly and welcoming and the food to always be good.


There are always bargains on their website to be had and their Salsa lesson nights are fun if you give it a go.


It's as expensive as you make it, personally in other restaurants, a meal for two usually starts at £40 and this place is usually under that.


Thumbs up!
