Excellent food and service.Great calm pasta. Stuffed artichokes. Pistachio ice
Possibly the most overrated Italian in area. It has nice ambience and service , but the food just isn't that great. Last night we went with 2 other couples. We were seated promptly and waiter and staff were attentive, Everyone seemed to think there meal was just ok. My wife had a salmon dish and said it was good. I had the Broiled frutti de mer dish served over angel hair pasta. It came with piece of salmon, a couple of shrimp, and scallops. The fish had zero flavor and was overcooked. The pasta was served dry . Zero sauce and stuck together. Just awful. At this price point you would certainly expect better. At 200 bucks per couple including tip , I won't be returning.

Have eaten at Portobellos many times. Always enjoyed the food. This time I had a craving for good homemade meatballs and meat sauce. The meatballs and meat sauce were tasteless. Had to use a lot of salt and pepper to have any flavor. Disappointed! The rest of our party thoroughly enjoyed their meals.

Six of us had great dinner at Portobello. Food and service were great. We spilled a glass of wine and the waiter brought us another one and a free after dinner drinks for everyone. Our waiter helped select a veal dish that was one the best meals I have ever enjoyed.

We LOVE Portobellos!! It is one of our favorite restaurants and we make a point of going there for a meal each time we are in Jupiter! The servers are friendly and attentive and the food is delicious!

Have been to Portobello a number of times. During those times it's been good and consistent. This time it was neither. My partners meal was tasteless. We were seated outside. Our table was facing the setting sun and in my face. I was assured by the waiter that the sun would be down shortly. It wasn't. We had two veal based dinners, one appetizer , and two drinks. The bill was more than $250 not including tip.

Warm and welcoming from the moment you step inside. Our server was fantastic! He was very engaging and attentive. Wish I remembered his name so he could be commended! The food was delicious and the wine list extensive. Love coming back each time. The specials were delicious as well and soooo many choices. Back next month!!

Veal Parmesan was bland. The dessert VESUVIO was disgusting. Big chunk of chocolate that makes your mount stick together. Last time here.

My family and I have been coming here for years and it has been sadly declining each time I visit. Last week, I got a to go order and my soup tasted horrible and acidic and as if straight from a can for starters. I ordered the chicken Parmesan and other pasta dish and both were incredibly underwhelming and felt like a first time young cook prepared them. Lastly, I got the "New York dark chocolate cheesecake" and it was literally a devil's food chocolate cake and there was no cheesecake! There are great things about this restaurant, but there is no way to contact the owner and rectify this online & I departed back north the next day as this was my last meal in Jupiter sadly. I will not be coming back. Very overrated at this point & for people with McDonald's palettes. 0ver $100 price gauging for a meal that should've cost $30 at best based on taste/quality. Sad decline. Pros- was made quickly/packaged nicely & Marcel is solid.
We wanted to like this place. We came here for my mom's birthday with 7 people. She needed wheelchair access which we had let the restaurant know about weeks in advance and confirmed earlier in the day. Those precautions failed as when we visited there it took 15 minutes to get properly seated. But then -another 20 minutes went by. No drink or appetizers orders were taken. Half the table went without water as the waiter got distracted. We had to beg for bread. Finally -after another 10 minutes I had to track down our waiter and request that he either take our order or perhaps assign our table to someone else if he was too busy. He apologized and then got us another waiter. That waiter apologized and took our orders. Ultimately --when some of the food arrived--two of the dishes were not hot at all. The dishes that were hot were good. Then one dish was actually missing the meatballs -which was spaghetti and meatballs! The chicken parm good The veal chop parm great What do you say? A bad night ? Horrible service? Too busy? Cold food? I don't know but I genuinely wanted to like This place. Well give it another try but for this visit -we can't look at you with a straight face and even give it 3 stars. Hopefully -next time things are materially improved.

The food was very good and service was also good with wait staff being attentive. However, I could not believe was was done that night. I gave the waiter the gift certificate I purchased on line. He said that the restaurant did not accept it because it was a holiday- Valentines Day. Last I checked banks and post office were open that day. Nowhere did you offer say that certificate was not good on Val Day. In fact, you offered a card that even said Happy Valentines Day. Your restaurant is too good to play such a pitiful game/ Bill Campo 215-527-6048

We love it here and come often. We also get takeout from time to time. We always get the chicken parm. I ask for it to be crispy and with spicy sauce ( peppers in red sauce in pic). The service is outstanding - never have to ask for our waters to be refilled and friendly ladies at the front. Yum

We were very pleased with our dinner at Portobello. Had not dined there before, but did some looking prior to making the resv. First off the service was excellent all the way around and our server Michael was A+. The menu is extensive and the atmosphere was just what we hoped for. We dined out on their covered patio (heated and shaded so you cannot see the parking lot or anything that would detract). We could hear ourselves speaking without raising our voices...excellent and cozy on a cool/breezy evening. Our drinks/wine were very good and not over priced given where we were. Appetizer salads were very good, entrees excellent (veal Sinatra, chick Marsala, chick Di Franco). Finished with a shared tartufo which was very nice. Inside dining and bar looked nice too, vibrant. If in the area again we'd certainly dine at Portobello again.

We could hardly understand our waiter. Between his accent and the fact that he spoke very quietly, it was difficult for us (and we got there early, before the restaurant filled up and got noisier). The food was great, but drinks were pushed too much!
