Reasons for trip

Charm, efficiency, delightful – all these come in one package from a brand new concept opened very recently in Gosport. This restaurant has not one or two but three categories of delivering beautifully served food. The central spar, decked out in attractive fuschia and blue lighting is a large, buzzing, welcoming area with comfortable seating for while your order is being prepared from a mouth-watering menu. With plenty of efficient, friendly serving staff you do not wait long.

On one side to this, through sparkling clean glassed double doors, is a Tapas Restaurant that includes a contemporary menu to suit all tastes. Exceptionally well thought out and magnificently decored this too is set out to woo you in and experience a meal out, with real red and white table linen, that seems to have sadly declined in so many areas. Looked after, smiles everywhere, (such a change!) encourages you to relax and enjoy. Through the opposite set of double doors is the Fish Bar, equally well decored and laid out with table linen and substantial cutlery, comfortable seating and if you want a good old fashioned cup of tea with your meal this is served with teapots, cups and saucers. The choice of menu is sustantial and caters for everyone’s taste.

With Michelle at the helm in the Fish Bar and Givana’s guidance in the Tapas Bar this venue should do very well. The proprietor’s have most obviously given considerable thought to selecting all their staff.

A huge, well marked out car park and enticing exterior encourages you to “Please Come In”. Mobility problems are not an issue – it is all on one floor with room to manoeuvre with wheel chairs. No expense seems to have obviously been spared to tempt the hungry diner in and experience one or the other, if not all, these differing menus. Nothing is simply too much trouble. It is not only the food on offer but the ambience and appearance of this restaurant that is worthy of a journey to visit it and they deserve to climb as a ‘must do’ for the area.
