Ate at La Porto 4th May at 8:00 p.m. with two of our friends, we were really surprised when we arrived, to find that we were the only customers in the restaurant and that they had stayed open to accommodate us, at the earliest time that we could arrive due to other commitments. As usual the food and service was amazing and we didn't feel hurried in any way, given that we were the only customers. It seems such a shame that a restaurant which serves delicious food as La Porto is not supported by customers after the early evening specials finish. Hopefully the evening business will pickup for this very lovely restaurant and it's staff.
Always thought this was superior to Norton but both are now off the list. Carpaccio is apparently aged beef slices with rocket and parmesan. I will eat my hat if that was beef, it was parma ham with a couple of rocket leaves and no parmesan and looked like a sorry state on the plate. Pizza really well done on the crusts..just caught it before burning so had to cut them all off. Had to ask for black pepper and parmesan for the pasta dish which is usually offered when served. Wish we hadn't bothered, much nicer restaurants around. Won't be returning I'm afraid.
We actually went to Stockton Riverside one but I cant find it on here, Everything was so Lovely, Nice happy friendly staff, we were able to pick a table of our choice, lovely food and we werent pestered at all by the waiting team it was very good , it was a little cool inside but fine with us, Music was great, all round a great experience and the best bit Cash only so Big thumbs up from us . It was my daughters 18th so we were happy we tried there we will be back .
Meals don't seem to be as good these days. 8 of us and 2 people never ate there meal. One was risotto. Friend said it was like sick. Tiny taste was enough for her. Told waitress and all she said was...I'll tell chef. She was still charged full price. Other friend had to cut bits off her pizza. Supposed to be chorizo on it but she said it didn't taste right and was extremely greasy. Oh well. Won't be going back

Absolutely appalled by the food that was served off the children's menu to my son...this was chicken strips and chips..this would not even be suitable for a toddler never mind a 9 year old child. I advise anyone who has a child over the age of two year old not to order off the children's menu
So nice to visit la Porto again. It was exactly the same as before. The food was as splendid as usual. Spoilt for choice. All headed by a warm welcome from the front of house..Alina a competent and efficient partner to the kitchen team. Lovely lunch TMD
Went here on Saturday with a group of friends before the Theatre how dissapointing. Will definitely never eat there again. I ordered a diet coke without ice it came with ice
Food was badly presented and various member of our party had issues with the food, either it was over cooked or not cooked enough. Would not recommend.

Service was fast and the food looked lovely but no real taste. The pizza base was under cooked in the middle and that was thin crust
First time here but certainly not the lsdt beautiful food, great value. I will be comming back
