    I strongly recommend that you upgrade your seating. They are very uncomfortable chairs and brutal to try and get through a meal. They push you to leave early they are so uncomfortable. We had a new waiter and he was trying very hard. Was on the slow side but I understand that he just got out of training. Pork chop was great!

    Waited over half an hour after our reservation time to be sat, beets on my beet salad were only half done. Appetizer given to us because of our wait was cold and of the 2 pasta dishes, one was very good and the other was undercooked and also cold. Probably compounded their situation that they had a very popular wine being offered as a tasting so maybe they just got behind and couldn’t catch up.

    Porta Vino has the lock on great wine prices! Most restaurants inflate wine prices — this restaurant is pricing wine at a fine retail price. That is its draw. The atmosphere is minimalist, bright, and clean. Our service this time was very good. Families and groups gather here. The food is simple Italian, some relatively small portions, menu has not changed much. They need some new great classic Italian recipes.
