    We come from Michigan and look forward to always stopping in to Pizzeria Portofino . Server was great. Food (pizza) was unfortunately mediocre this visit. Hoping next time will be better.

    I don’t know our servers name but I haven’t had a server that great in a long time. Super friendly and attentive and went above and beyond with recommendations for places to go out in the city.

    The Brussels sprout pizza was outstanding. The Tortellini en Brodo was good, but it was better during restaurant week. The Gem salad should be added to the regular menu. The service was great as well. I can't wait to go back to have the pizza again.

    My husband and I came here as part of our wedding anniversary trip and they were all so sweet. We had a reservation (definitely recommend) and unfortunately we had to wait a little bit after our reservation time. But they were very attentive to us & even gave us a free appetizer & dessert. The food & drinks were absolutely delicious. I could not recommend the food enough!!! They were so kind & so generous!!

    This was Pizzeria Portofino event held at the RPM Events Building. Beautiful decor, great vibe and delicious food. Would have liked to have more cocktails but the 2.5 that we had were delicious. The event was the Galentines Day cocktail making class. Super fun, will attend next year or for the next event.
