The food was so good. I'm from Wisconsin and in town for business. I had dropped a friend off and was in a sweat shirt, so I was definitely under dressed and probably looked like I couldn't afford my food and as a big black man I have a huge appetite and ordered/ate a lot, but I definitely didn't feel my presence was welcome and I apologize if that is not true, but it how I felt. The food was absolutely worth it otherwise.

I have been here a few years ago with a friend. My kid recently moved to the area, so I picked up dinner for several of us to share. As always, Porto Bello has a warm, friendly atmosphere and the intoxicating unforgettable smell of an Italian grandma’s kitchen. The young people working there have the know how and friendliness of old restaurant pros. Everything was packed perfectly for us to carry. The soups and pastas and cutlets were savory and perfectly cooked. My litmus test is always eggplant parmigiana hero. The eggplant was thinly cut, not oily and melted in my mouth. Portions are generous on top of all that. God bless Porto Bello. Hope you are around forever. PS I ll have to drop in on my kid more often! PSS couldn’t believe the size of the rice balls and they were stuffed to perfection.
This is the last time I will be ordering from here. The pizza was soggy & horrible. Prices are going up but the quality is going down.

I was here with a friend for dinner a few of weeks ago. We had a wonderful waitress! She had a great sense of humor and cool personality! We ordered eggplant rollatini, pasta with vodka sauce, prosciutto di Parma brick oven pizza. The food was so good and the service was wonderful! The restaurant was cozy and had a relaxed vibe. Love it there. I've been there before a few times and had the grandma slice to go and I've had the grandpa slice to go and the veggie slice to go. Their pizza is always consistent. ?

The pizza was undercooked and soggy. The toppings were lazily thrown on the pizza and I had to wait a long time for it to come. The table I sat at was dirty and when I asked for an employee to come clean it no one came. The employees are rude and don’t care about their customers they don’t even offer a napkin or utensils when the food is served. The only decent thing I had here was the Pepsi bottle. They definitely had better service and food before but now it’s not so great. Won’t be coming back here if they were giving food out for free. They have a good atmosphere but I wish their service and food matched the energy!
Pleasantly suprised! Today, I orderd a clam chowder to pick up at 5 and when I arrive at 5:10– I wondered if it would be cold… nope! They had it wrapped and double bagged!Literally the most clams I ever had in a soup, seasoned to perfection and obviously cooked with authentic Italian seasoning. I am truly in love with this place.Front desk is all very polite guys — and phone service by a young lady was outstanding customer service .Atmosphere is chill and I love that cherry soda I can only find there.Best Italian in food in queens . Best pizza as well.11/10 delicious in every bite! ? ?? ?

Warning do not eat here!!! I came to here today ordered the chicken piccata. The first bite I took I knew something was off. The texture of the chicken tasted unpleasant with a sour taste. At first I thought the sour taste was coming from the artichoke sauce. When I tried the sauce alone, it tasted fine not sour. I took a second bite of the chicken and spit it right out, the sour taste was coming from the chicken which was obviously old!!! I called the waitress over and told her I wasn't happy with the chicken that it was old. She did take the chicken piccata off my bill but charged me for the pasta it was supposed to come with anyways. She never apologized for what happened. I could have gotten deadly sick if I have not noticed something was wrong right away and spit the food out. Food poisoning is no joke!!! I've been coming here for years, and this place has definitely fallen off. How do you serve customers old chicken!!!

This place used to be good. Food used to be hot and fresh. Today was the last straw, won’t be ordering from here anymore. They have raised the prices but I’m willing to pay if it’s good. The calzone was undercooked and cold on the inside. Pasta tasted old. Garlic knots were cold in the middle and burnt and stale on the outside. I called directly so I don’t even want to like argue with people for a refund. Unfortunate to have to throw $35 worth of food in the garbage. Won’t be ordering from here anymore.
Excellent pizzas!! Recommend that
