If you go the exterior bar is beautiful and balmy. Enchanting with lovely bar service and oysters du jour are refreshing. Edgar our waiter was extra ordinary! He is so kind, polite and extremely knowledgeable in regard to menu suggestions. Our food was excellent. Our dining experience was great! No complaints just accolades!

Hats off to the service at Porto We went to dinner tonight at Porto with reservations on their covered patio which is supposed to accommodate guests even when it's raining. However, as soon as we sat down, a thunderstorm with high winds came through. Plates and glasses slid off tables, making the patio unsafe despite the covered awning. Staff worked quickly to get everyone inside safely. Once everyone was safely inside the Porto staff pivoted to get guests seated and served inside during the dinner rush. The staff provided impeccable service despite the weather, dinner rush, and unexpected wait in the dining room. Would highly recommend Porto!

Beautiful restaurant. I sat outside on their patio, which is tucked away from the main road. Plus I had a really good meal! I started with the beet salad. Very elegantly prepared. And it tasted great. Not sure if this makes sense, but each ingredient had a purpose. I'd take a bite and notice one ingredient, then another bite and I noticed another ingredient. And they all worked. For my main course, I had the pappardelle and braised duck. The pappardelle was obviously homemade, and the duck ragú was very flavorful. It was close to being too salty but they didn't cross the line. All in all, a very nice evening.

The vibe of this place is very nice, definitely recommend here for a date! I got the mushroom pasta and it was pretty good! The service was good! I would like to come back and try their brunch on a summer day.

Our go to restaurant and would go more often if it wasn't so $$$$. Very good time sitting at the counter (for the first time sitting at the counter). Should always reserve ahead if you want table seating.

We had a great meal at Porto for Valentine's Day. We order a bottle of Trebbiano, split the wild boar pappardelle as a starter, and had the potato di mare for our entree. We were served warm bread with olive oil before our meal and they were very accommodating and split the wild boar pappardelle into two plates for us. The pappardelle was delicious and fresh. The piatto di mare was fantastic. The Bronzino, grilled octopus and the potato and broccolini sides were absolutely delicious. The scallops were okay, felt like they could have had a little more seasoning. Our server was great and very friendly. The decor felt a little underwhelming for the this type of menu but overall a great experience.

Oh so delicious! Our server was also fabulously attentive and helpful with ordering a family style meal for our party of 5. One of us is slightly allergic to fish (me), but the rest of my party was able to eat all the fish dishes and said it was delicious. I had more than my fill of the mushroom pasta which was SO GOOD! We kept eating and eating but it was hard to put a dent in the portion we got! The cheese empanada & oysters were probably my favorite, but it was all good. The cookie dessert was good, as well as the tiramisu. We were there during a heat wave (90 degrees in September?! Whyyyy?!) - so we sat inside which was a little noisy & busy on a Thursday evening, but we had a blast!! Would come again.

I give this a 3.5 overall. Arancini, salad, clam pasta, lamb chops were all really good. Lamb chops were small but perfectly cooked! Sorbet was just ok. I could live without it. Service was really good here. They do auto add the 20% tip which you could miss if you don't look at the portalable billing device in detail so you may end up over tipping as they show you another prompt to add on more tip (kind of weird) The ambiance wasn't nothing special though for me. I think its a decent place/safe place here but nothing to go crazy about.
