We had a great experience at Pizzeria Portofino. The pizza was excellent—fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The calamari was also very good. The vodka rigatoni was just okay compared to the other we’ve had, but still enjoyable. Our server, Stevie, was incredibly attentive, warm, and genuinely made the experience feel elevated. Overall, we’d definitely come back for the pizza and the service!

I am completely in love with this place. The energy is lively, the food is amazing, and the staff make every visit feel special. They even reached out earlier to create a custom menu for our celebration, which felt incredibly thoughtful and warm. For drinks, the purse is a fantastic choice for a large group. You can enjoy a spritz or a fun cocktail in it, and the value is excellent. The truffle fries are unforgettable, packed with rich flavor and served in a large portion. The creamy vodka pasta is also full of taste and truly satisfying. I cannot wait to return for another wonderful meal and experience.

The whole restaurant was just so beautiful. The server (Maddie I think) was really nice and was a complete vibe. I went for my 18th birthday and she signed me up for the lettuce rewards program. The food was phenomenal and the service was really fast, Maddie was very attentive too. Side note, just make sure to make a reservation. She gave me this amazing apple cider sorbet which I would definitely go back and get next time. She made sure to treat us extra well since it was my birthday. I’m definitely coming back. She even let me record my interaction with her on my meta glasses. Also, I forgot to say that she even asked my friend for any allergies and assured that nothing was cross contaminated.

This place is very cozy — we absolutely loved it! The pizzas were delicious, and what I liked the most is that they felt light, not heavy at all. The pepperoni with honey was AMAZING 🤤. The drinks were also really good. Definitely a spot I’d come back to!
