Best Historic Restaurants in River Vale

This was my first time in the tavern portion of this restaurant. My friends go there frequently, and I decided to tag along, and it was wonderful! The food was delicious and so beautifully prepared… We decided to share some appetizers of fig and arugula, pizza, mojo de ajo shrimp, and dates stuffed with goat cheese. They were all superb. We also each got a small salad. I had the fried goat cheese, which was amazing. I really enjoyed the coziness and warm feel of this place and will definitely be back!

The venison was delish. Halibut special superb. Great service!

I’ve said it many times but it can’t be said enough. This is the best restaurant in Rockland County. I’ve lived in the county for 51 years and though there are many terrific restaurants IL Portico is in a class by itself. Pepe and Paige are unique hosts creating an atmosphere that is both relaxed and elegant at the same time. The food is presented superbly and is always delicious. The service is always outstanding. If you have not eaten here, you are doing yourself a disservice. If you eat here once, you will be back many more times. Treat yourself to a wonderful dining experience

The food was amazing. The antipasto board that was presented was phenomenal. Our server was excellent, and the music by Josh was awesome. It was a very pleasant night for some guests experiencing it for the first time. Everyone had a wonderful evening.

Had a wonderful dinner experience at Giulio’s Good service and the food was delicious. Will be back!
