We really enjoyed ourselves here. Food was amazing. The wine list is very reasonable and we ordered a bottle that is more expensive at other places. Place was packed but we still received first class service. First time here and will return.

Tried Caffe Portofino based on several excellent reviews on multiple web sites including Trip Advisor. Unfortunately, our meal was average and a disappointment. The Caesar salads were served with old, yellowing lettuce smothered with dressing. The entrees each had beef but very salty that kept us very thirsty throughout the meal. Really confused as to how this restaurant achieved such favorable ratings. One thing is for sure, however, this will be a one-time visit.

I walked in hungry, and unfortunately left the same way. Their “insalata tricolore” made a delightful start, but I made the mistake of ordering their “braised beef ravioli”, expecting a lot of pasta in marinara sauce, failing to notice that it was served in a “low-fat alfredo sauce”. It was small and about as satisfying as a frozen diet meal. Their tiramisu for dessert helped a little: it was very good but again, a relatively small portion. On the other hand my 2 companions raved about their grouper, and “risotto champagne”, respectively. But even their portions were not very large, as one of my friends never manages to finish his meals, whereas in this case he did. The service began well, but we seemed to get lost along the way: the 2 waiters were confused as to whether we’d ordered dessert, and I had to flag down someone for the bill, 45 minutes after we’d finished. After paying $182 (plus tip) for our 3 meals with half bottle of (very dry) Justin 2015 Cabernet, it was more than just the wine that left a sour taste in my mouth.

Ate there w/ my wife and another couple. Nice ambiance and staff was very helpful. Everyone enjoyed their meals I had the seafood risotto which was one of the best I have ever had. Portions were nice, and u can share but I was hungry and ate it all by myself. Wine selection is good would definitely recommend this restaurant.

This is an excellent Italian restaurant. Every-time we visited, enjoyed the great food and good selection of wines.
They even offer an early bird.
