Best Fun Restaurants in Albany Park

I recently dined at Pizza Portofino, and I was beyond impressed! The food was absolutely delicious, with every bite bursting with fresh, authentic flavors. The pizza had the perfect balance of a crisp crust, rich sauce, and high-quality toppings. What really stood out, though, was the staff—they were amazing! From the moment we walked in, everyone was friendly, attentive, and incredibly quick. Our food arrived much faster than expected, and the service was seamless throughout the meal. If you’re looking for a great dining experience with fantastic food and top-notch service, Pizza Portofino is the place to go!

It was Valentines Day and they ran a tight ship!! We were sat right by the kitchen door upstairs and it did continuously slam against the wall inches from my date and had her on edge the whole night. Other than that, service, food and ambiance were perfect for a romantic date!!

I loved everything we ordered, but my wife preferred the Panza taco over the Al Pastor, but we did finish all the tacos… 3 each and we shared a side of rice and beans and a Brussel sprout tostada, which was good but the beans on it threw us off. I suppose it made the brussel sprouts stick to the tostada. I also had a couple ounces of their whiskey barrel picks which were delicious as well and not too pricy! Stagg and Weller Full Proof picks were perfect! Stagg old fashioned was good, too. Not too sweet!

Great atmosphere and service. Best brunch I’ve ever been to

Exceptional service and creative, delicious dishes. The 5 of us shared everything and we were not disappointed. Thank you for an amazing dining experience!
