El Porteño - Mi rincón imprescindible en Valencia Cada vez que estoy en Valencia, hay un lugar al que siempre regreso: El Porteño. Es mi parada perfecta después de una buena caminata por la ciudad, donde sé que me espera una copa de cava o una excelente botella de vino y, por supuesto, un filete a la altura de cualquier ocasión especial. He disfrutado aquí tanto con mi hijo como con amistades queridas, y la experiencia siempre supera las expectativas. Desde los entrantes hasta los postres, cada comida es un homenaje al buen gusto y a la hospitalidad. El personal y la dirección son simplemente excepcionales: atentos, cálidos y con ese toque que hace que te sientas como en casa. Superb. Una joya que siempre recomiendo, y a la que siempre volveré. read more

Came here with a group for a nice dinner. This restaurant has several buildings and area within the same address. After some minor confusion, found the reservation and table. Seemed that who ever took the over the phone reservation took some liberties when writing the name down. 1) We had several beverages. 2) Place has a cramped old feel and look. 3) Server was not very attentive and extremely forgetful. We ket ordering water and drinks over and over. At least three times or so each of us. Each time it seemed like a combination of these three because he either kept on forgetting, maybe he may not have cared, or was extremely busy. 4) Food was very good, due to this, I recommend it. 5) Had several dishes. All good. Some great. The grilled sweet breads were good. Overall, I recommend you give this place a try. read more

Tooo many amazing things to say about this place. First our server Lucia was extremely nice. The restaurant is cute and quiet enough to enjoy a family dining experience. The food is the highlight however. The steak here is amazing. It's cooked to perfection. The potatoes that accompany the potatoes are yummy as well and perfectly seasoned. I had a mushroom empanada and it tasted like heaven! Gracias El Porteno! Hasta el proximo tiempo read more

As soon as we walked in the door we were warmly welcomed. Perfect start! The menu was in multiple languages, so had I brought my Russian comrades,they would be in the know as far as what's on the menu. I thought that was very thoughtful! The appetizers were awesome. We ordered a variety of empanadas..spinach with goat cheese, chorizo;and one with beef. All were delicious!The meat selection was fantastic. Veal was tender. Everything was seasoned to perfection! They brought us cake even though the buttons were popping off our pants. Then they brought us a glass of champagne to celebrate our pants actually staying on! If you're in Valencia and you're hungry...GO HERE!! You won't be disappointed! read more

A really enjoyable experience. They were fully booked online, but our hotel concierge called was able to get our family of four a seat if we were there in 10 min. We were a 5 minute walk and they greeted us by name. They spoke English well enough, we could communicate basic words in Spanish, and we never had a communication issue. Servers were very attentive. But the food- to a dish everything was great. We had the assorted beef platter for two and it easily fed three. One of our party got the pasta Bolognese and it was outstanding. Desserts were top notch as well. Would highly recommend if you need a break from all of Valencia's wonderful seafood options. read more

Good meat restaurant. Tasty and decent price. Service is pleasant and ambiance is comfortable. Nice spot.

We went to this restaurant on our first night in Valencia and it did not disappoint. The tasting menu included empanadas, bread with queso, a huge assortment of meats and dessert. Plus the service was amazing. Would definitely recommend but go hungry! read more

I maybe in Spain, but it taste like Argentina! I was craving a good cut of beef, and the Spanish, well they excel in so many things except the grill. El Porteño is worth the visit and you'll be coming back for more. Their chimi-churi sauce is out of this world. The empanada I ordered was excellent. But, the creme de la creme was the beef ribs. Cooked and seasoned to perfection. Remember Argentinians love salt. Service was top notch, my server knew the menu, the cuts of meat and most importantly wine. This friendly, quaint restaurant, with a kicken asador (grill). read more

This was our most expensive and most disappointing meal in Valencia. I really wanted it to be good, but the quality fell way short of acceptable. We ordered the tasting menu and the dishes flew on the table fast! We weren't even done with our appetizer course before the next arrived. We are taught as children to chew our food twenty times. I wish that I could have done that with the meats were were given. The flavor was divine, but it required so much cutting and chewing that it was impossible to eat most of what was given to us. The bottle of wine was good, even though a 2021 vintage, but otherwise it was a very disappointing and expensive meal. read more

2nd day in Valencia. We mostly eat tapas, pastries and toast. We have had a few meals between city stops. This meal was our favorite sit down full meal. Even the endive and arugula salad was amazing. Bookmarked this one because I want to come back! read more

Fantastic food and service! Have the skirt steak with chimichurri sauce and ask for Macarena.

I really, really enjoyed both the food and the service at this place. My Spanish is bad at best, but the girl who sat us asked if I spoke Spanish or English (which I'm certain she already knew by that point). I said I spoke a little Spanish and that I was learning. She smiled, said no problem, and left to get our drinks. She spent the rest of our meal speaking to me in Spanish slowly and kindly correcting any mistakes I made (she also spoke flawless English to my mother). It was greatly appreciated and added another level of enjoyment to our meal. Speaking of languages, the menu comes in about 10 languages which was a great touch. The highlight here is the tasting menu which is a sample of several meats plus empanadas and a few other items. Unfortunately, I wasn't hungry enough for that amount of food, but I saw it served to several nearby tables and it looked phenomenal. I had just an empanada and the beef sirloin. Both were excellent. Prices are very reasonable for the location (it's a block off the central square). Of note, the hours on here are slightly incorrect. They close after lunch and reopen at I believe 7pm most days. read more

Fantastic! We've been touring Spain for nearly a month, have eaten in many restaurants and our meal at El Porteño was quite simply the best we've had. The food was exceptional and the service excellent. read more

If you just need beef you can't miss this spot. Staff multi lingual and very friendly. Tapas were complimentary. We really enjoyed trying a bunch of different empanadas. Beef was outstanding although the portions are very large so you will need to verify the fineness to your liking. read more

Great service and delicious food! It was definitely a highlight of our stay (food wise) very delicious and the service was also really good. Nice patio area and also one of the only places open at any time you need dinner. read more

When in Valencia you MUST go to El Porteño! For sure order the grilled veggies to start. The salads are also fresh and flavorful. We ordered both the beef rib - generous and cooked to perfection. Our other meat was the grilled chicken thigh. Huge portion and, again, cooked to perfection. Their fries are the crispiest seasoned perfectly. The ambience is casual neighborhood style. Staff is gracious and attentive. The house wine is quite good. It and other selections, including Cava, are available by the glass. The kitchen is open from 13:00 to 1:00 One our best dining experiences in Valencia. read more
