Portarlington Pizza & Pasta — Restaurant in Victoria

I really wanted to like this place, but I can't in good conscience give it another try. When you offer a menu / ordering system with photos, you should at least attempt to replicate what you are supposedly selling. It doesn't have to look like a menu shot, but it should be recognisable at first glance.

On the left of this composite image is my meat lovers pizza; on the right is what I thought I was getting. It's bad enough using generic stock images of pizza and not photos of your actual product, but you should at least try and make the recipe similar. I couldn't spot any cheese on my pizza. This might be excusable (at least personally) if the pizza still tasted alright, but it just wasn't doing it for me.

Funnily enough, the garlic bread is also listed as a flatbread ciabatta-style serve online and yet is your stock-standard wrap-it-in-foil garlic bread when it comes to ordering time. Thankfully that tastes just as good as you'd get from anywhere.

2 stars because the youngsters behind the counter were doing their darndest and provided service with a smile. This negative review is not a reflection on the customer service team, and not really on the chefs, but more on management. You can't promise one thing and serve up something completely different.

It'd be nice to see some actual photos of your meals further down the...

We ordered a garlic and cheese pizza, seafood special pizza, bolognaise ravioli and penne ravioli. Pizza bases were fluffy and perfect, seafood pizza had heaps of toppings, and the pasta sauce (and I'm bolognaise fussy) was actually delicious! One size large pasta fed our two kids (ages 2 &5) we had the garlic pizza to share, one entree size pasta was more than enough for one hungry...

Has to be the WORST pizza we’ve ever had. Wouldn’t even feed this pizza to my dog. This restaurant doesn’t even deserve a single start, they were burnt, dry and tasteless, it was honestly like they served up a pair of crocs with toppings on its that’s how rubbery they were. When we called to complain we were met with horrible customer service she didn’t care about our complaint and didn’t even care enough to rectify the issue. The only good thing to come out of this is knowing we will NEVER be...
