Portofino - Hanley

Lovely meal quick . Food was well presented and tasted gorgeous

it was very busy food was ok however we asked prior to our meal arriving if we could order more drinks and we didnt get any one take our drink order untill we had nearly finished our meal so ended up cancelling the drinks as they still hadn't arrived by the time we had finished our food appeared to be only one person behind the bar and one person who could take the drinks order. they were very understanding when we cancelled our drink order

Good food, good service Friendly staff. Good pre theatre menu.

Lovely venue, friendly staff, amazing food Would definitely go their again

Service was quick, efficient and polite. Food was just okay.

Excellent pre-theatre dinner. Good quality food and very good service

Food is always amazing, friendly staff brilliant location. Great for a pre meal before a show or night out 😍👍😍👍😍

Attentive staff. Nice atmosphere. And food was very good. Perfect pre theatre dinner.

Beautiful food amazing atmosphere think the restaurant was just to busy

The food, service, value for money and overall experience was really great - exceeded our expectations for a busy pre-theatre dinner. Highly recommend

Really great food and an overall great experience will definitely return

Went before a visit to the theatre so was busy. Will visit again when we have more time to eat and enjoy

Went to Portifino before the theatre, had the 2 course menu which was great value and quality. Staff were lovely and friendly! Would defo go back.

Food was excellent, but every time the door got opened which was a lot it was very drafty on my back and I didn't want to sit there have my meal with my coat on. Wish I asked for a different table but they were busy when we got seated

It was a pleasant meal, although the menu had changed, and there was less choice than on our previous visits. The food was good, but not quite as special as we had hoped. Nevertheless, it was fine, and I think we will return, as many other diners had done, because overall, with good service and a buzz in the restaurant it was an enjoyable evening.

Fantastic meal and service as always for the family 😁

Extremely good staff in terms of helpfulness, service and politeness. Great food, hot and fantastic quality.

We enjoyed a great meal. Served by welcoming and attentive staff

Food tasted like it had come out of a packet, not freshly made pizza base, not homemade pasta or sauce. Very mediocre.

Lovely food, good value, wine really nice too. Worth a visit.

This was our first visit to Portofino, we were visiting Stoke on our canal boat. We booked on line and based on the availability we wondered if we might be dining alone. We couldn't have been more wrong, very busy restaurant with a large group from a local business. The restaurant staff coped well with the high occupancy on a midweek night. We enjoyed our meals, and were very impressed with the front of house staff

Very nice restaurat. Everything there was amazing. Food delicious! I will go there again.

food was amazing great evening 10/10 would go again thanks

Lovely meal in this vibrant restaurant. An enjoyable dining experience.

Lovely food as always. Best carbonara in the area 😄

Beautiful food again, service was impeccable, food came quickly and was piping hot, really enjoyed our meal

Great food and the staff were brilliant, it was very busy

Very friendly helpful not rushed at all and would happily come again

We had never visited before, but with the Regent Theatre booked for 7.30 we thought we'd try it as it is so close. As soon as we walked in we felt comfortable even thought we were the first diners there, good ambience, lovely decoration and we were greeted immediately by a very friendly lady. The seating was nice and enclosed like a booth, our drinks then food orders arrived quite quickly - each dish we ordered was so delicious (bruschetta and a mushroom dish for starters, then the duck and also cannelloni main courses, profiteroles for dessert). We didn't feel rushed at any time and the waiting staff checked on us when needed without being intrusive. The whole experience was positive in every way, thank you Portofino, we'll be back!

Really relaxing, the staff were very friendly and helpful, lovely meal

Excellent food and service. Really impressed. Highly recommend. Best Italian in town.

Beautiful authentic Italian style food. Lovely ambience. Nice house red and gorgeous sweets.

Prompt service. Friendly staff. Slightly cool but probably ok when there are more diners.

Absolutely beautiful as always. Food and staff are always great here 😊

Food was good, staff were lovely but restaurant wasn't very warm as we were hit by a draft every time the door opened.
