What a wonderful dining experience. And Alyssa made it even more so by explaining her family's connection to Italy, Wisconsin and Door County. The entrees were fabulous, especially the local whitefish! We will return.

After numerous confirmations of reservations, upon arrival we were told Open Table wasn't working & we had no reservation. There were at least 3 other groups with same issue. Barely an apology. Not sure I'll try Della Porta or open Table again. Very disappointing

We used Open Table to reserve our dinner. Upon arrival, hostess claimed her computer showed no reservation on Open Table even tho I received two different confirmations from Open Table. She could not/would not seat us. Will not attempt to dine there in future.

A great meal after a long day outdoors. Perfect combination. The service is very attentive and the food is prepared with skill and expertise.

The food was amazing, true farm to table taste and our server Mary was very friendly, attentive, and just had great table side manner! She had a perfect white wine pairing with the pasta entre I had and it ended up paring well with the fried calamari appetizer. The dining room is on the smaller side but that didn't take away from our experience. They do have outdoor seating, but just keep in mind wait times if you come with a larger group. Reservations highly recommended during peak hours. We will definitely be dining here again!

My wife, mother in law and I all had a fantastic experience for our first dinner here. When we arrived for our 7:30 reservation they were swamped but they really made an effort to get us seated quickly. Sometimes tables linger longer than expected, certainly not anyone’s fault, everyone was just enjoying themselves. The service from the moment we walked in was professional, sincere and kind.
Mary was our server and she was wonderful. She had great recommendations, was so helpful and cheerful she really added to the positive atmosphere.
The food was excellent — between the 3 of us we had 2 plates of the Paccheri ala Genovese and 1 Diavola pizza. Absolutely loved both dishes. For Dessert we tried the Tiramisu and the Lemon Olive Oil cake. Both of those were beautifully done. We weren’t even hungry after our main dishes but were so happy we got dessert.
Can’t wait to come back and would highly recommend this place. Great vibes and great food.

Mary was a wonderful server! She checked in on us frequently and recommended fantastic dishes such as the bruschetta and the mushroom risotto. Her jovial spirit and dedication to a providing a personal touch to every table she served was incredibly refreshing and I can’t wait to visit again next year!!

Such knowledgeable and caring service from Mary. We love good Italian food and this was outstanding. The calamari was perfectly prepared, tender and flavorful. A special od bruschetta with their home grown tomatoes was very special. And the homemade pasta was hearty and a lovely al dente. The Italian wine list was impressive and something for everyone. Thank you Mary for your fine recommendations

Awesome spot, last minute reservation, still very accommodating. My girlfriend is gluten free, so we had the gluten free pizza & pasta, both very good!
