Veal scalloping Marsala was good and just right when I shared with my mom. Elaina, our waitress, was excellent. She shows up whenever we needed us and was very courteous!
We ate outside, so we're not troubled with a lot of noise, except for one individual walking down the street with much more profanity than good sense.
It was a perfect place to meet a friend to enjoy a delicious meal dining outdoors. The waiter was delightful. The food and wine were wonderful. The outdoor area with no cars driving by made for a lovely evening. Can't wait to return again soon.
Delicious family dinner at a longtime Old Town Italian favorite. Although the restaurant was full, service was outstanding with no wait for a table at our reserved time and attentive servers throughout the evening. The food was very good, our family of 5 had a mix of pasta, fish, and chicken dishes.
Jackie, our waitress, was incredible! She was so punctual, provided recommendations and had a fun attitude. Our food was delicious. The tiramisu was so perfect. We love Il Porto!

My favorite restaurant!! We started going when they had a place in Harbor Towne. That was over 42 years ago. Whenever we are in town we stop by the Old Town location. It never disappoints
The gnochi special is the best I definitely recommend it, the service was also amazing, Javier did a great job

The food was disappointing The veal was pretty tasteless ,certainly not seasoned to be Italian The broiled chicken tasted like it was boiled
Visiting Alexandria, hears about this spot. Didn't disappoint. Could've ordered the whole menu everything sounded so good. Even the 3 year old loved her spaghetti and meatballs. If your craving Italian food, definitely your spot. They will impress.

I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere appreciation for the exceptional dining experience my family and I had at this restaurant recently. We were celebrating my son's graduation from high school and upcoming college journey, and this establishment provided the perfect setting for our special occasion. The live music from the guitarist, saxophonist, and cellist created a cozy and elegant ambiance that transported us to Italy, enjoying jazz with our loved ones. Not only was the food excellent, but the service was truly top-notch. I am pleased to say that I give this restaurant a glowing 10-star review, and I am already looking forward to returning in the near future. It's hard to believe that in my 25 years of working in Alexandria, this was my first visit to this establishment. Thank you for exceeding our expectations and making our evening unforgettable.

This was a special occasion I wish I would do again . Special menu and a jazz trio playing for you . It was a weeknight so It looked like a low turnout. Maybe if it was a Friday night they could draw more people in.
Traditional Italian restaurant in Alexandria. Pasta was good but sauce needed salt to be tasty. Service is the main point that needs to be improved.
