  • Charming
  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Good for special occasions
Italian inspired cuisine in a charming and beautiful country setting with outdoor dining all summer and a covered heated tent in the winter. Our stone terrace with large fireplace nestled between aromatic herb and flower gardens makes for a beautiful setting year around.

Upon booking, please select either an indoor or outdoor table. "Standard" refers to an indoor table. If an outdoor table is not listed, the patio may be booked at that time. Please call us directly if your preference is not listed.

Our tent is down for the summer! Tables on the patio are covered by umbrellas for protection from sun and in the case of rain. In the case of inclement weather, we will do our best to accommodate outdoor bookings indoors based on availability.

Take out from 4:30pm to 8:00pm daily and can be ordered by calling us at (804) 741-4800.

We are unable to accomadate parties of more than 6. We are unable to separate parties into multiple tables.

    Every dish we got was outstanding! Alcohol choices were great. It’s nice they can have the outdoor seating out in the igloo (there may have even been too many heaters out there lol). Overall an incredible Valentines meal!

    We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at Portico on a chilly winter evening. We chose to eat indoors although a few brave souls ate in the outdoor tented area! Service was impeccable. The food was delicious. All in all, another notable meal at Portico.
