El Puerto Restaurant
The Old Custom House, Pernarth Marina, Penarth, CF64 1TT
In the swinging city that is Cardiff, El Puerto is well to the fore. Its key position in the handsome former Customs House in Cardiff Bay certainly helps and a steady stream of favourable reviews and happy customers tells its own story. Whilst the cuisine centres on Spanish dishes this is by no means the end of the story and culinary inspiration from around the Mediterranean is cheerfully and expertly called upon. The impression given is somewhere between a 20th century brasserie with overtones of bistro, though La Marine upstairs will not only enhance your view but also offer a more formal dining experience. A fascinating wine list, almost suggesting that HM Customs House did not make a clean sweep when they vacated the premises.In the swinging city that is Cardiff, El Puerto is well to the fore.

REVIEWS OF El Puerto Restaurant
Paul H (9 April 2009)
Nice restaurant, nice food and good for people watching.
David Price (10 February 2009)
We had a meal there on a Saturday and the experience was truly remarkable but in a nice way. We ordered our food at a big glass chiller full to the top with fresh meat and fish, which fascinated the children. I ordered the sea bass, which was truly divine. Great style and service, will be visiting again!
