"Stopping by Porteña for a few empanadas is essential when you’re in Borough Market. This Argentinian street food stall has four meat numbers—beef, chicken, chorizo, or ham and cheese—as well as three vegetarian options—provolone and caramelised onion, spinach and ricotta, and caprese. They’re spicy, delicious, and great-value." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, daisy meager, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak

Spinach and ricotta empanada was out of this world. Steak sandwich was very good but I could only eat half of it as it was my second lunch 🥲. Very friendly staff. Seating stall in Borough Market is a huge plus too.

I recently grabbed a steak sandwich from Portena in Borough Market, London, and it was amazing. The bread was perfectly toasted, giving it a great crunch without being too hard. The steak was tender and packed with flavor, and the chimichurri sauce added a nice herby kick. The melted cheese and fresh tomatoes balanced everything out perfectly. With a cold drink on the side, it made for an awesome meal. If you're in Borough Market, you should definitely check out Portena.

The steak- sandwich is mouth- watering. Personally, I perfer a medium rare steak more than a medium-well.

Mozarella and pesto empanada was deliciousz definitely a must try. Loved the sandwich and grilled taste of the meat as well. It was also great that there was some seats, which is not very common in Borough Market

Walked past it in the morning where market was quite but a queue was by this small place, explored with no regerets! Best empanada! I tried the cheese with caramelised onion! Very generous filling and pastry so light!

Had a steak sandwich at Portena while we were visiting London for the afternoon/evening. The staff were friendly, the food was served quickly, and it was really tasty. There is a seating area under the bridge to eat. Would definitely eat here again.

Good quality empanadas with an attractive range of fillings to choose from. The tomato and mozzarella was our favourite with its gooey centre. The cheese and onion filling was ok but I would have preferred chunks of onion inside to give texture and more taste.

If you want ride customer service, a place that takes priority to ONLY Spanish speakers, and borderline spits in your face when you ask simple questions, then this id the place for you! 0/10 would not recommend to a friend a
