Restaurante Porthus by El Charro Negro — Restaurant in Torrevieja

This SPANISH restaurant only opened three months ago, however is already very popular and rightly so. Very good welcome, service and attentive staff. The menu is well designed with thought for all tastes and an incentive slant on traditional dishes of the country. The quality of the presentation is amongst the best we have experienced in the area and the chef and his team clearly takes great pride in their work! Typical Spanish/French over cooked vegetables which will not appeal to many, however try the Potatas Bravas starter and you'll get an idea of what pleasure lies ahead. We asked for a Hendrik's gin to start which we requested with cucumber. Even though they didn't have it, they went out to obtain the garnish and that's service!! We would definitely recommend this restaurant that offers high class food and wine selection at great...

Pretentious

We wanted to test this place, because we have found El Charro Negro to be among the better food serving establishments in Torrevieja. The exterior is very nice, and have a hint of luxurious feel to it. The food presentation is gourmet style, and well done. Note that the food portions are gourmet size! The taste is above average for Torrevieja, but far from gourmet standard. Lots of room for improvement here, both in composition, base ingredients and cooking. Poor value for money, was our conclusion. We are confused about many of the reviews here. Are they really talking about the right place? Two stars because they don't meet the expectations installed by themselves. Tested October 2025....

Absolutely amazing ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

We passed this place and thought it looked very high end (expensive) but the prices are inline with all other local places.

The food, ambience, service and presentation was 5 star. Highly recommend this place. Everything in this restaurant is very high quality including fixtures and fittings.

Great selection of wines to match all budgets and cocktails...
