Reviews
"1 star because we were basically kicked out from this restaurant. Food is great, Portofino is our go-to Italian but this place has very poor service. This particular franchise in Parnell constantly reminded us that they were closing down, and staff can leave when we do, even grabbing my brothers plate even tho he's still eating. We didnt overstay. Arrived at 2015, food came at about 2045, forced to leave at 2120. It makes me think why such poor service, is it because we are people of color?"
"An old favourite. All the hearty, honest food of a proper family run restaurant, with a cosy atmosphere that makes you feel like you belong. Food is great, atmosphere is comfortable, and I've never left without feeling slightly guilty about just how much I've managed to eat"
"It was a wonderful experience to work here. The staff taught me a lot, with smile and kindness. The food is amazing too : carbonara, fettucine, margarita, gnocchis... Everything I tasted was delicious. The benches are confortable, the atmosphere is great as well... I recommend this place +++"
"Went here for dinner one time and got a chicken salad, it was super good; I highly reccomend! The service was really nice and the waitress was very friendly. Nice atmosphere as well!"
"We got takeaway pizza so I can't speak to service but I feel this allows me to be very honest about the food itself. The garlic bread was somehow dry, chewy, and greasy. It had pretty much nothing going for it: a veritable flavour desert. The prosciutto pizza was really salty and the others weren't that great. The bases were really stodgy, the crust was somehow the best part. Considering the price it was quite disappointing and I wouldn't want to eat here again. Also the cannelloni sauce tasted like canned spaghetti, or maybe canned tomato soup. Reading the other reviews, that are rather polerised, I would definitely trust those at the lower end of the spectrum. I'm just super glad I didn't eat in. I have added just one photo. Tell me that doesn't look like a countdown pizza base with some roughly minced garlic on it."
