My wife, mom, sister and I recently went for lunch on a Thursday afternoon. We actually weren’t sure they were open because, despite calling during their posted hours, nobody answered our several phone calls. Fortunately, my sister lives down the street so she walked over to see if they were open. Strange. When we arrived we were pleased to see a small but intimate and well-decorated dining room. We only ever saw one employee the entire time: our server, who was very kinda and gracious and delivered everything with a smile. Unfortunately he would not, or was not allowed to, answer the phone, which rang continuously our entire meal, and explains the conundrum we had. Again, strange. Fortunately the food was fantastic. They have an excellent 3-course lunch special, which includes a salad, pasta dish, and a cannoli for dessert. The salad was a standard green salad with vinaigrette, nothing special, but my pasta dish was legitimately outstanding. I got the Angel Hair Mediterranean, which had firm fresh shrimp and plump sweet scallops. I ate every morsel on my plate. Unfortunately there were a couple imperfections, most notably my sister and wife ordered the pappardelle bolognese and both got spaghetti. But all four of us thoroughly enjoyed the quality of food. Portofino is a cozy and comfortable restaurant with delicious pastas and greater potential, but they need to clean up the professionalism a bit and, I dunno, maybe have someone...

I came here for a surprise 30th birthday party. I must say I was very impressed with the service and the food. This isn't a big place but it was perfect for our group. You can use one or two rooms. The atmosphere is cozy. It's a BYOB. There's some outdoor seating too. We started with Hot Appetizers and they were constantly being passed. We were served Mini Crab Cakes,Stuffed Clams Oreganata , Chicken Skewers,Rice Balls,StuffedMushrooms, Baby Grilled cheese Sandwiches, Mini Ruben appetizers are just a few to mention. Then we went on to Caesar Salad, Ginger Calamari, and Prosciutto Mozzarella and Roasted Peppers. Then on to the pasta course. We had Penne Al La Vodka, and Pasta in a homemade Pomodoro Sauce. Both of these pastas were excellent. After that we were given three different dishes to share family style. The first dish that was served was Bruschetta Salmon, then Veal Milanese, and Chicken Francese. All three dishes were delicious. I was so full I didn't think I could eat another bite until dessert came out. I had a piece of the delicious Birthday Cake, and some Italian pastries. I just paced myself and slowly ate a bite here and there. Portofino's served so much food. Everything was really good. I had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend this place for dinner, get...
