    The Restaurant Week selections were good. We had the barbecued shrimp, the tomato and basil dish, the shrimp and squash soup, the seafood pasta and the shrimp deavlo. All were very good. The barbecued shrimp and shrimp deavlo were excellent. Our server Benjamin Almond was fantastic — attentive and professional. We recommend Portobello’s for a special evening or any time!

    I don't believe the restaurant was prepared for the influx due to the holiday. Also, seemed to be short staffed. Service was excessively slower, with over an hour wait time for food after ordering. We also had an additional wait time to be seated, 15 minutes after our reservation time. Management did visit the table to keep communication. This is key and was much appreciated. Total experience time was just over 3 hours, with most of that time waiting. Good thing we enjoy each other's company, lol. The food when eventually delivered was cold (steak specials, specifically)but still delicious. Would still recommend this place for the food alone, just be prepared to have lunch AND dinner there.

    I visited Portobello's for Father's Day brunch and ordered the chicken & waffles. We arrived @2:15 reservations & ordered @12:20--12:30 & food @12:55. My waffle was burned but friend traded his waffle cooked properly. The waitress was nice but they were either overbooked OR there were lots of people without reservations. I would still try them again on a Sunday that wasn't a holiday for a thorough review. The prices were good; I would definitely try them again @ time less busy.

    Waitstaff was very attentive. I love their veal parmigiana. I found it dry last night. It needed some marinara sauce to top it off. The Sensation salad is perfect. Our salad plates were clean. It's an enjoyable place to dine. I will definitely return.

    Second time booking reservations here. Only came back because it was great the first time. This time however was not as great of an experience. Issues with food, front staff seemed bitter, feeling rushed ourselves because of the waiter, when we were trying to take our time. Music was loud and didn’t fit the vibe of the restaurant. Just overall disappointed.

    Wait staff and management were very nice and attentive, but the food simply did not deliver for an excellent Sunday brunch. My son and grandchild enjoyed the chicken and waffle and my daughter the hamburger. My frittata was mediocrce with boring potatoes. Have enjoyed many lunches there but will opt for Sunday brunch elsewhere.

    Walking in was kindly greeted and wished a Happy Mother’s Day… the carpet had food all over it-looked dirty and unclean. Waitress took our drink order. Waited quite some time for a beer and mimosa. We were brought complimentary bread thank god as we ordered our food and waited for an hour for it. Our waitress by far was the most unfriendly waitress I have ever encountered. Never smiled,never!! Not once did she ever come to our table and ask if we needed anything. Not once. She literally put the appetizer on the table and jetted, didn’t look to see if we needed refills nor did she ask. This happened again when she brought the entrees out. One of my boys got his plate, she had the incorrect plate for my other son. No plates for me or my husband. Came back with my sons correct plate again on each of these times not saying a word to us as in yours will right out or sorry for the wait-nothing!!! My husband’s plate came and was ice cold we sent it back. Next the manager came to our table with a complimentary cup of gumbo with a burnt roux-it was awful. He then brought out a new plate for my husband and asked me if I was waiting on something…YES my food he asked what I ordered another 30 mins passed before he returned with my food which my boys were finished eating!! In the meantime my husband realized his wasn’t chicken as he ordered it was veal. I requested the manager box my food and not what husband ordered we were leaving. The manager did cover our check, which I expected after this catastrophe of a Mother’s Day lunch. When I got home I went to eat my food, not a lick of sauce on the pasta. I used to eat here all the time and the food an service were really good. No more! And no it wasn’t because it was Mother’s Day it wasn’t that busy!!! This was the worst dining experience I have ever encountered!!!

    Service was extremely slow and it took a long time to get food. Bill was prepaid by my niece as a Mother’s Day surprise and they failed to process payment and we paid bill. I called restaurant when got home and the manager straightened out problem and said hostess dropped the ball and didn’t inform him we checked in for our reservation. He credited us and processed it with the credit card that was called in by my niece.

    Carpet was dirty, the food was not great for how expensive it was. $17 for a brunch flatbread that wasn’t even cut into slices so you could actually eat it. Then suddenly the music got super loud. A weird experience overall.

    We had a very disappointing experience on another’s Day. Besides the regular brunch menu, were 3 Mother’s Day “specials”. We ordered the flatbread special which was described as having a bacon infused ricotta with spinach and two eggs and a few other ingredients. It came out with a crust that was store bought and it was covered with a huge pile of dry spinach that had been baked to a crisp like kale chips. Underneath the spinach there was almost nothing other than the two eggs. It was tasteless and very dry. We also ordered the “special” pancakes which were described as lemon ricotta pancakes. The plate came out with three small pancakes with a small dipping container of ricotta and a small container of syrup. Needless to say this “special” was extremely disappointing especially considering the price. Why offer a Mothers Day special if you aren’t going to try to make it special? Overall the food was overpriced and mediocre at best. We have been here a couple of times and have been disappointed each time. Sadly, we will not be back.

    WE have always been a fan and really enjoyed a night out and having Dinner at one of our favorite restaurants. However, this dinner, was not the normal. It took more time than usually to receive our meal. Once the meal arrived, the presentation was outstanding, but the food was overbearing with salt. I explain it to the manager and ask him to look into it and he said that he would and offer an alternate meal. Generally, I would have changed the meal but due to the amount of time for the original meal to arrive, we decided not to forgo a different meal. Once I received the check, I assumed that some type of incentive for the bad taste of the meal, would have been off set, but NO. I was not happy with this. I have always enjoyed Portobello and constantly recommend this restaurant, but now I am questioning my decision. I have no desire to return to Portobelo for any meal.

    I have eaten at Portobellos many times over the past few years. Most of the time it was good though there were a few occasions when the service and food wasn't the best. But lately it seems like the food quality has really improved. The hot ciabatta bread with the olive oil is amazing. And the grilled salmon was very very good. Service was also very personable and attentive. Nae was the best. And Patrick was also excellent. I am very impressed. Great restaurant!
