The service this time was not that great, probably due to a young inexperienced fellow, which brought a salary with gluten to the table for someone with coeliac after we mentioned this allergy/intolerance.

Went to Portsmouth Gunwharf restaurant avoid at all costs had the gluten base pizza, it came out burnt, they gave me a steak knife as it was rock hard, they didn’t even attempt to cut it, person with me didn’t have a burnt one so they cut hers! coffee was even worse only bad meal I have ever had in Gunwharf very disappointed. Would have given a zero if had the choice. I didn’t eat mine. Staff were polite, no complaints there, however they must have forgotten the white walking cane in the kitchen when they brought out the burnt pizza as they clearly didn’t see it!!

Had a lush evening at Prezzo tonight. We rang and booked the night before and they were really accommodating towards our dog. We sat outside overlooking the marina. Our waitress Iionela was lovely and brought out water for our dog without us even asking. One of us is Gluten Intolerant and they have plenty of gluten free options. The manger took our order and was really lovely aswell. We were even brought out some chicken for our dog which was so generous. We enjoyed our food and the service was very accommodating towards our dog. We popped in before getting the ferry and aren't local otherwise we'd definitely be back. Thank you to the team!

Went on a warm Saturday evening, probably around 50% capacity. First impressions were excellent. But from placing our drinks order it went down hill. Orders were forgotten, lack of attention from staff. Had to wait 5 mins for all of the food after the first plate arrived, There were only 2 of us. Food was less than average. Only positive is the vast variety of options for those is a gluten allergy.

I was so impressed by the variety of food available on the gluten free menu. Absolutely recommend for those that can’t eat gluten. Brilliant salt and pepper fried squid and prawns (although I did find the seasoning a bit too salty) and delicious mains. Very rich and hearty. They know how to cook seafood perfectly!😋 We will definitely be visiting again next time we go to Portsmouth

Not a great place for limited mobility. Mum (90) struggled up 3 steps to benefit from sea view. Worth it she said. We’re gluten and dairy intolerant we were given a menu guide but it’s layout and print size rendered it useless. Menu offers little opportunity for gluten free choices. Mum did enjoy a vegan ice cream sundae. Had to queue at bar to order and coffees etc were self serve again not greasy for accessibility. Very few front of house staff.

Becoming more of a regular here now, all the staff are fantastic, Michelle serving us the most this week who is always happy and makes sure we are well looked after, especially when ordering food as I can't have gluten. The menu offers plenty of gluten free options, you will need to go via the app to check. The cherry soda drink is great and tasty, but £3.75 for some soda water and syrup is a lot of money (Harvester HQ needs to drop the price a little lol) Looking forward to summer where you can see outside overlooking the harbour!

Walked in today with my husband and son for a late lunch. The food was lovely, and as a coeliac, it was awesome to have the birria tacos as a gluten free option! Absolutely made my day. The food was tasty and everyone was happy. The young woman serving was lovely!

Great for people with allergies. I ordered a vegan chocolate and vegan strawberry (dairy allergy) ice cream in a gluten free cone and it was wonderful. £3.50 for that I believe, and they didn’t even charge extra for a gluten free cone over the normal one which is a nice change. The ice cream was lovely, and so was the service.
