Our return trip to portofino's did not disappoint. My fiancé had the salmon and pasta and I had the grouper special which were both cooked to perfection. We finished our meal off with the Limoncello cake which was fresh and light. The staff was very attentive. We Can't wait for our next meal there. 5 stars

The food and service were fantastic! We all enjoyed our meals. We had calamari and fried shrimp appetizer which was cooked perfectly. Definitely save room for the Limoncello Cake!!

It was our last night of vacation and we wanted to have a nice meal! This was a perfect spot. The noise level is a bit loud but the food was amazing! Great service too! If I lived near by I would definitely go back.

Our waiter Emperor was wonderful. The drinks were well executed, the food was delicious and the ambiance was quaint. We’ll definitely be back to try other things on the menu.

Atmosphere, food and service excellent.. A table of 4 and everyone ordered something different. The presentation was beautiful and food was delicious.. Egg plant was stacked high with pasta on the side, bolognese was delicious, chicken portafino excellent and the special of lobster ravioli with scallops & shrimp to die for.. The extra was they serviced homemade bread with their dipping sauce ? I highly recommend this restaurant.. Wednesday’s they have a piano player so be sure to make a reservation.. Enjoy

This was our first time at Portofino Italian Kitchen & Wine Bar, but it won’t be our last. We came on a spur of the moment decision, and found everything to be wonderful. For a Monday evening, they were very busy but still the service, atmosphere, and especially the food, were excellent. This is authentic Tuscan cuisine, with a very fine Chef-owner. They offer a great selection of Italian wines, which we haven't seen at other local restaurants, bars or stores.We started with a cup of the Tuscan Bean soup (delish!), and a Cesar salad (also delish!). My husband had the lasagna, which was as good as our waiter, Chris promised it would be. I had the grouper, which was absolutely perfect. As a bonus, they serve a home made focaccia bread, with pesto seasoned olive oil. FABULOUS!! I’m hoping they’ll begin selling the bread because it’s well worth bringing home.They have a large parking lot, are easy to get to, and are definitely worth checking out. Highly recommended!

Went for dinner for the first time last night. Nick was our waiter. Everything was great from the appetizer of mussels calamari and shrimp to the main course of chicken parmigiana and zuppa di pesce. Great service and great food will be back.

Best meatballs (appetizer) I've ever had! Better than my Italian grandmother's. !! Lobster ravioli super and Super Tuscan Ripogrande wine is delicious! We usually order chicken artichoke and substitute mashed potatoes with angel hair pasta .. delicious! It is Giovanni and Ilma that really make this place a success! They're getting too popular. Reservations needed!

 The food, service, and friendliness of the staff was spot on, couldn't have asked for a better time. The ambience with the lighting and the music was very nice, and gave to part of an intimate setting as I was celebrating a birthday with my wife. the guest were a little bit loud, but nothing that isn't expected, so the overall field the place was absolutely perfect. And the waiter sang happy birthday to my wife with me, which was a beautiful touch to end the meal with a piece of lemon cello cake and a birthday candle. I would highly recommend this place. Ask to be served by either Joe or Chris, they are great guys that will make sure your meal is perfect.
