About Osteria Del Porto

Osteria Del Porto is a well-loved restaurant known for its consistently excellent food and friendly service. The staff, including bartender Orlando, create a welcoming atmosphere, making it a popular spot for dates or people-watching. The Italian menu features dishes like tortellini, arancini, and lamb shank with polenta, with many customers praising the flavors and quality of the food. The wine list is extensive, and cocktails such as the refreshing Arabella are favorites among guests.

The restaurant is especially lively on Fridays and weekdays, often full and requiring reservations. Visitors have enjoyed outstanding dishes like charred octopus, which was cooked to perfection, and a beef with saffron risotto that received high praise. However, some reviews mention that the portion size for grilled octopus can be small and desserts like the chocolate mousse and berry tart may not always meet expectations. The atmosphere can be noisy, making conversation difficult at times, and service can feel rushed, with tables often cleared quickly after the meal. Despite this, the creative dishes and solid cocktails make Osteria Del Porto a nice place for a dinner outing or celebration.
