– Approachable fine dining and the world’s best wines –
We opened Portland in January 2015 and gained a Michelin star later that year which we are very proud to have retained ever since.
We try to offer the best contemporary example of fine dining in London – this doesn’t mean cloches and tablecloths (we don’t own a single one of either!) but the finest produce we can find cooked with precision and a high level of technique. Our team is led by Executive Chef Chris Bassett who has been with us for several years and his team in the kitchen is led by our Head Chef Angelica Hope.
Wine has always been central to what we do – as well as our monthly-changing wine list we have a unique Single Bottle List featuring some of the world’s finest wines. Alexandra Suter, our head of beverage, is always on the hunt for new brilliant wines and is just as excited by a superb-value house red as she is by a Grand Cru burgundy.
On the floor our team is led by Kat Adams our GM who is always keen to hear about anything she can do to make your visit that bit special – if it’s a birthday, anniversary or you just want to have a negroni waiting for you when you get here, please let us know.
We hope to see you here soon
We are open from Tuesday to Saturday for lunch and dinner. Please use the online booking system below – if your preferred table is not available do give us a call on 0207 436 3261 and we will do our best to make something work.
We kindly request to let us know upon booking of any significant dietary requirements in order to provide the most creative choices for your requirements.
Private Room
For groups looking for a more secluded dining experience, our private room is available. Please click here for more information.
Our Private Dining Room is perfect for groups of 7 to 12
The room is all yours for the afternoon or the evening and you will have a dedicated member of our team looking after you
We offer three different menus in the Private Room – A La Carte, Tasting Menu and our Portland Feasting Menu
A La Carte
Our menu begins with welcome snacks sent from the kitchen while you enjoy a drink or wait for the last few guests to arrive, followed by a choice of first course, main course and dessert from our a la carte menu. The menu is £59 at lunch and £85 at dinner for 3 courses and welcome snacks.
Tasting Menu
Our upstairs Tasting Menu can also be enjoyed (for the whole table) in the Private Dining Room and is priced at £95.
Feasting Menu (not available in December)
For groups looking for a particularly celebratory menu, we would propose our Feasting Menu, based around our centrepiece Beef Wellington as a main course and Tarte Tatin for dessert. This is priced at £95 and dietary requirements can be adjusted for at each course. (Please note we require 72 hours notice for the Feasting Menu.)
December Festive Menu
During the month of December, we offer a festive take on our ever popular feasting menu with the added option of roasted duck for the main event. This is priced at £95 and dietary requirements can be adjusted for at each course.
Festive Private Dining Feasting Menu
Our wine lists are both available and we have a special Magnums list on offer for the Private Room.

Wine is as important as food and service at Portland.
Our wine list aims to offer brilliant value on interesting, different wines which we hope you seldom see on restaurant wine lists.
The list contains some of the world’s finest wines and also more accessible offerings from our favourite producers. We aim to be keenly priced at the high-end and seek out rarities and odd bottles which are sometimes no longer available anywhere else.
Our list is constantly evolving and we tend to hold only small allocations of most bins. Should you wish to put something aside for an upcoming visit, we would be more than happy to reserve a bottle for you.
Our partnership with Chateau d’Yquem
When you receive your dessert menu you will notice something quite special. We are very proud to be one of six restaurants worldwide working directly with Chateau d’Yquem to offer three vintages of their iconic sauternes by the glass.
Thanks to this partnership, we are able to source bottles directly from the Yquem cellars (where they have not left since bottling) and offer them at an incredibly competitive price. We currently offer the 1994 & 2002 vintages served via Coravin at £69 per 75ml. We also offer a unique flight of 75ml of each vintage priced at £125
