We came to this place as it was listed as one of the top recommendations in Portsmouth. The host of the restaurant is a very friendly man who offered us to try the wine before we committed to get the whole bottle. The wine, an Australian Pinot Noir, at £12 a bottle was very good value for money. We ordered... More

Drinks, food, and atmosphere was buzzing at Angry Aly's for the 2 days of the Caste Road spring fair on the 26& 27 May. It was great been able to drink outside with the sun blazing and the bag And Jewellery Stall doing well. Well done once again Road and Aly you both did a grand job.

We came here expecting a tapas selection as that's what was advertised. When we saw the menu we thought we were in the wrong restaurant. There were a handful of courses to choose from so not a great lot of choice. When we asked about tapas they said they could knock something up or try some of the starters. We... More

While visiting my cousin in Portsmouth we frequented Angry Alys on every night of my stay. The service and more importantly, the friendliness of Rod and Aly AND the regular customers was unbelievable, I have never been to a wine bar before where on my first visit I felt like a seasoned regular!! The bar is cosy, clean and comfy,... More

This is a relatively small restaurant, offering quite a limited menu. Each and every item on the menu is cooked to a high standard and the presentation and level of service are faultless. However, it's a slightly strange setting, the decor is a bit dated, and there are some handbags and jewellery for sale around the room!

I went here as a party of 7 on a Wednesday. I had never been here before and went as a result of trip advisor recommendation (s)... The venue is small but this adds to a nice friendly atmosphere. The staff were cheerful although there was a long wait ( 50 minutes) for 'starter' orders to be brought to the... More

We love going to Angry Alys. The place is a one off. Loads of entertaining regulars (and that's quite apart from Rod) and lovely food. They really do go the extra mile for you. We love it and visit at least twice a week. Thoroughly recommend it for a good night out.
