The braised short rib with gnocchi special was one of the single best dishes I've had in my life. If gnocchi is ever on the menu at Porta Via, do yourself a favor and try it. Great atmosphere and service.
We had such an amazing experience at Porta Via in Pacific Palisades. They just reopened about a month ago, and the restaurant looks beautiful. The atmosphere is elegant but still relaxed, and from the moment we arrived, everyone made us feel incredibly welcome.
We started with the salmon and the tuna tower, which was probably one of our favorite dishes of the entire meal. Everything tasted incredibly fresh and the presentation was beautiful.

Porta Via Pacific Palisades is a restaurant that offers a mixed dining experience. The restaurant looks beautiful and the atmosphere is elegant but still relaxed. Customers have enjoyed fresh dishes like the salmon and the tuna tower, with the sautéed calamari and rigatoni pasta receiving special praise for their flavor. The new lobster sandwich is a fun dish, packed with lobster and a very generous portion. The cocktails are seriously good, creative, and perfectly balanced. However, the beet salad and gazpacho have received mixed reviews, with one diner finding the gazpacho too oily and too strong in its tomato flavor. Some diners have faced disappointments, such as small portions that felt overpriced. The service remains highly praised, with the staff being helpful, attentive, and lovely. In one instance, a birthday celebration was noted with a thoughtful gesture of a complimentary tiramisu. The attention to detail, like freshly picked mint for the tea, is appreciated by diners. Overall, Porta Via Pacific Palisades is noted as a great spot for enjoying cocktails and food in a cute setting.
