Portage by the Lake

TLDR: avoid at all costs.

Let me start by saying we were the only table, and it's 4:45pm. No table bread at an Italian bistro. First place where there was no table bread. Calamari was $12 for a depressing looking plate. Portion was very small. Garlic aoli tasted like warmed mayo. Entree wise, the spaghetti was half cold and soft as if it was left in water. Michelina's frozen pasta tasted better. The chicken parmesan was tasteless. Although my coworker ordered the same thing I did, and there was no one else eating, her broccoli tasted like mush where mine was too firm. Her veggies were sweet. Mine tasted like it was in the fridge way past expiration. Should've went to the A&W by the gas station. Would've enjoyed it at 10% the cost of this garbage.
