Another outstanding dinner at Portofino’s. The meatballs are to die for. The Salmon special, chicken francaise and eggplant parm were exceptional. The most consistent food of any Italian restaurant in this area. The service is excellent and you are never rushed. As close to eating at home with family as you will get in a restaurant.

When we arrived inside it was very cold and changed to eating outside and the staff was accommodating.unfortunately outside there was a loud table on one side of us and on the other side a woman jumping into our conversation which spoiled our private romantic Saturday meal which the staff couldn’t have anything to do with. The service & meal were great! We’ll be back soon.
