Six Portland Road

1. Last night, before heading to Opera Holland Park, we stopped by Six Portland Road for dinner. Located on a side street, the restaurant is tucked away from the city’s noise, and it even has a lovely terrace for al fresco dining on summer evenings.

   The service was outstanding, with the staff being exceptionally friendly and energetic. We were the first table to arrive, but the restaurant quickly filled up.

   We enjoyed Beef Tartar with Chips, Burrata Salad, Golden Risotto, and Chicken Pie. The portions were generous, and the Beef Tartar and Chips made a perfect pairing. The Beef Tartar was exquisitely flavorful, with a tender texture that melted in the mouth. The Burrata paired wonderfully with peaches. The mix of fresh and caramelised peach was light and could even be a great choice for dessert – ideal for those who prefer delicate flavors.

   For the main course, the Chicken Pie was a visual and gastronomic delight. The pie was beautifully golden brown, and the vegetables created a balanced meal. It was my first time trying Beetroot Risotto, and it exceeded my expectations. Cooked al dente, it was simply amazing.

   We also had the Bread and Butter, which was delicious and fresh.

   Overall, it was an excellent dining experience, and I highly recommend Six Portland Road for a memorable evening out.

2. We had the most stunning meal last night. The food was elegant, innovative, delightfully seasonal and vibrant. The team are charming (Karen is a gem) and the setting is beautifully tucked away.
   As a chef/ food designer, I am rarely so impressed! 6 Portland Road, thank you and see you again soon 🙏

3. Terrific little bistro in the heart of Holland Park. The ambience is very warm and welcoming – not snooty or flashy at all. The interiors are a bit worn, in a charming way. The service is unpretentious and casual. But most of the food, I thought the food was excellent. Fillet was perfect. Fries were excellent. Trout was terrific. And the total price is actually quite good for this part of London. Two mains, two starters, two glasses of wine, two sides for £155. This is not cheap, but compared to other places around the neighbourhood, it’s not terrible.

4. Absolutely adore this place.

   Food is absolutely amazing and the wine is divine. Service is incredible even when we have a big party of 8. There’s a few nice options on the desert menu as well.

   They have outside seating in the summer so it’s very very good vibes – great wine pair with great company. It is tucked away from holland Ave so it’s nice and quiet.

   The only thing is the food is rather expensive – 36-42 quid a main.

5. This was the fourth time I’ve been lucky enough to eat here. Let me start with the staff. Outstanding. Knowledgeable, kind, professional and attentive. The food is consistently worth every penny. Always presented beautifully and clearly fresh, cooked with care and made with top notch produce. I didn’t review the first time as was totally distracted after my meal by being in such a happy place. But feel obliged to share at how special this understated ‘local’ restaurant is far more special than your usual local spot. Consistently excellent. Delicious and rare.
