    My go to spot every time I'm in town. Their Negroni is perfect! Service is impeccable, and I haven't ever had a bad meal in 10 years!

    Had an amazing dinner with friends. Each dish was delicious from the calamari to the seafood stew, soft shelled crab, ravioli and wine list. Nice, quiet ambiance and our waiter was attentive. This is old school dining done well. Don't sleep on the tiramisu.

    The Portofino is an authentic Italian restaurant. I know, I'm full blooded Italian. The pasta is just like my grandmother's handmade pasta from years ago. I've never had pasta that light and delicious in any restaurant. The polenta appetizer was sublime. The wait staff was friendly and interesting to talk to. 5 stars all day long! Thanks for a wonderful meal.
