An excellent evening. Food was most enjoyable. Best calzone ever had - really… really nice. Sea bass was delicious. Lemon dessert was yummy. Awareness of coeliac / gluten free (pasta and other options available). Will definitely return.

We all had something off the set menu for lunch and it was lovely. Plenty of choice and great presentation. No complaints from my friends at all. Enzo is brilliant and he looked after us really well. Definitely be back.

Would suggest that they warm crockery before serving pasta. The edges of my pasta were cold but the middle hot.

Service was slow but eventually our drinks were ordered. I had a mojito which had to be sent back. No flavour to it at all other than lime cordial taste. No ice in the glass & the very small amount of mint was more black than green. I was told they had no more mint left so had to order a different drink. Food was good….i had risotto which was creamy with a good texture. Son had a meatball calzone which he said was filling & flavourful & husbands pizza was also good. I had tiramisu to finish & it didn’t disappoint….delicious. Asked for the bill & paid cash. The waitress didn’t return with my change….i always tip but thought it presumptuous of her not to return with my change….if she had done I was going to leave more as there was only a little left after the bill was paid.

Pizzas and pizzettes were plentiful but bland. Lasagne was tasty. Boddingtons bitter, Moretti lager and pinot grigio wine all fine, however the bill was £24 too much with extras added that we did not order. Also query about Food Standards Agency mark 4 on door when recently reported as 1

On a wild wet windy evening we were greeted with warmth and good humour. The meals were delicious and the service was impeccable. Always a lovely atmosphere at Portofino!
