Restaurants near Portsmouth Plaza Shopping Center

What’s not to love? We brought our adult daughters along for our annual anniversary/holiday dinner, and they only added to the validation of how amazing this restaurant truly is. One pescatarian, one vegan, both satisfied and smiling! Chef made a custom vegan dish just for us, and it was fabulous. Great drinks, wine, appetizers… love sitting in the bar, too!

What a wonderful experience! The food was amazing. Marjorie, our server, was so friendly and helpful. I had the rigatoni, and my husband had hake fish dish. Also enjoyed a couple of spirits – Japanese whiskey and local bourbon.

Everything was perfect, the restaurant has such a homey old time feel. All the staff was super welcoming and it had been noted on the reservation it was my wifes birthday and they all greeted her with happy birthday and the birthday card on the table was a very nice unexpected touch. The food was beyond fabulous!!!! Loved the fire place smell, and the environment was perfect, alive and folks having conversation but we could very easily have a private conversation at our table. Post dinner walking the Strawberry Bank grounds all lit up for the holidays was an amazing fun bonus.

Always a pleasure to spend an evening at Toscana. The food is consistently delicious - my husband had his regular 36 ounce long bone rib eye and I had pasta. And the service is second to none. Christina always makes us feel like home. Thank you!

We had a large group of 11 - 8 adults and 3 youngsters. Ordered 6 large pizzas, each with different toppings. Most were well received, although , for a couple, the crust was more chewy than for others. Still we managed to devour all but a few slices. The restaurant is ideal for large parties, as there were multiple families dining on a Friday night. Service was fine and the atmosphere is upscale and urban in design. Even with a round of drinks for all, you can dine on pizza, beer, and wine for about $25 per person. Hard to beat!
