My wife and I dined at Cafe Europa on our wedding anniversary. It had been a number of years since our last visit, and we were not disappointed. The restaurant is perfect for a romantic, intimate dinner. The service was very attentive without being intrusive. The meal was absolutely delicious. My wife enjoyed the dinner special, and while I'm a... More

The food is excellent, the staff friendly and the service is impeccable. There were five of us for dinner and all had a different entree. Each of us had an excellent dinner. The desserts, including the ice cream, are made at the restaurant. We had four different desserts and they were all excellent as well. This is without a doubt... More

This is a beautiful restaurant, the food is excellent, the service friendly and impeccable. I was delighted that my entree was served piping hot and stayed that way to the last bite. They were very accommodating when it came to my gluten-free needs. I will go there again & again.

Cafe Europa has become our favorite place to celebrate birthdays and anniversaries.The atmosphere of the well-appointed cafe is low-lit and quiet, and the owners and staff are professional, yet very friendly. I prefer their entrees served with the chef's exquisite European sauces and my husband usually orders a seafood special. I recommend; if you order a sauce-covered appetizer or entree,... More

December 2012 - We were attending a conference in Norfolk at the Marriott Waterside and needed restaurants for each evening. We had some success with Sirena Cucina (good but almost empty) and 456 Fish (Quite good) and the Monastery (not suitable for British tastes - too bland) but needed a final one for our last night. After finding out that... More

The food, the ambiance and the service makes this my place of choice. We have tried other places in Portsmouth and always come back to Cafe Europa or Still because we know they never disappoint. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu. I do so love their pate to start always and then from there just point and... More

The trout was cooked to perfection, and the lamb chops were great. The salmon and veal dishes were also very good. The Portugese fisherman's stew, although not exactly a "stew", was wonderful. It consisted of lightly sauteed seafood with small chunks of chorizo sausage and a tomato/olive oil sauce. We've never had an entree here that wasn't cooked to perfection.

What a gem of a restaurant. We were greeted by the bar staff as if they were expecting us. We didn't have a reservation but were seated straight away. The attention and service was top notch. We concluded that if the food was just average, this was going to a great evening. The food was excellent. The wine list included... More

This restaurant bills itself as a Mediterranean style eatery but it primarily Italian(which is not a bad thing). More upscale but the food is good and the staff friendly. The website said coat required(men) when we went but we went in wearing business casual casual with no problem.
