Portobello Cafe has been a favorite dining spot for 25 years, offering good food and fair pricing both for dining in and catering events. With a variety of lunch and dinner specials, including 2 for 1 deals, as well as keto-friendly options and delicious sauces available for purchase, there is something for everyone. The restaurant has continued to serve the community during the pandemic, impressing patrons with their delectable dishes and friendly service. The private room is perfect for special events, with attentive staff members like Jimmy and Mauricio ensuring a delightful experience. The lunch specials are a great local bargain, providing ample food at an affordable price. The Sunday sauce at Portobello Cafe is a must-try, with a variety of dishes like calamari, Caesar salad, and rigatoni that hit the spot. For those looking to enjoy a great meal at a bargain, dining on Fridays before 6 PM to take advantage of the 2 for 1 menu is recommended. While there were some minor hiccups in service, such as misplaced reservations and slow drink service, the delicious food and accommodating waitstaff make up for it. Overall, Portobello Cafe is highly recommended for those seeking a tasty meal in a friendly atmosphere.

Not as good as it used to be. Food was bland and smaller portions. Not really worth coming back when there are better Italian restaurants on the island.
