Had a nice meal with a window looking out over the street. Pasta & pizza were tasty. Service was good, but don't go if you're in a huge hurry.

Even though the food was a bit expensive, it was very tasty & it came in big portions. The service was great. But we end up paying $37 for one pasta dish. I think it's too much. But food was good.

Sehr leckeres Essen mit anständigen Portionen. Der Service ist sehr nett und freundlich. Kleiner Hinweis: Wenn man die Pasta als Vorspeise bestellt, darauf hinweisen, dass man nur eine kleine Portion möchte. Ich habe eine Normale erhalten 😅

My lasagna dinner was just that, a piece of lasagna..No bread or salad, just a piece of slightly burnt lasagna, for 29.00. My husband had veal Parmigiano, while the presentation was nice, it came with pasta & some veggies, the Parmigiano was very thin. Not alot for 38.00. The server suggested tiramisu for dessert. It came in a glass, not a piece of cake but a bunch of whipped cream with a little bit of cake particles in the bottom. For 14.00. Not impressed.

My 3 girlfriends & I went to Portofino for a birthday celebration. The pasta was exquisite, Fernando was serving us, he kept us entertained, & laughing all night. Beautiful location with a cute outdoor patio, great for people watching. We sat outside, & it was lovely. After dinner Fernando surprised us with a cake for our friend & we all sang even people on the street joined in! What a memorable experience, highly recommend this restaurant. We will be back!
