   We were planning on celebrating my birthday as we have done here before- asked for a corner table - although there were several available or that would be available we were put in a middle of the row table- without anyone even saying sorry we just don't have a corner table - then when it came time for dessert - everyone even the table next to us were celebrating their birthdays and received special treatment etc I received nothing - you chose to dine at a restaurant of this caliber because you expect those special things - I will be certainly not be coming back here for a very long time. very disappointing.

   Food was impeccable, every dish prepared with perfect attention to fresh ingredients, flavor, texture, temperature. Best meal in NY during our most recent visit to the city.

   The restaurant had a nice ambiance & we were pleased with the quality of the food. However, the service was chaotic & inconsistent. There were plenty of wait staff & managers walking up & down the aisles between tables almost none stop but we had to wave them down to order. It was very annoying to have people walking constantly around you or refilling your water glass after taking just a few sips. The service seemed disorganized and took away from the experience.

   Good value, overall. A superior Italian restaurant. Highlight was probably a pork chop that remained juicy. Truffle pasta probably overpriced. Attentive and pleasant service. Convenient to a subway station.

   This is a lovely restaurant for a nice dinner. Dining rooms are really pleasant, service is warm and food is delicious. Price points aren’t too bad either. I’ll certainly put this is my regular rotation of Manhattan dining spots.

    This was my first time back here since the pandemic. And I’m happy to say that Portale is still a gastronomic experience in nyc. The chilled yellow tomato soup with watermelon was the perfect starter for such a hot humid day. Full of flavor. And the roasted duck breast was spot on, perfectly cooked and it had a very crispy skin; tasty jus and a nice match with the roasted figs. The passionfruit mousse dessert was refreshing and not overly sweet. Very good indeed. I can’t wait to return.

    Top notch food and great staff at prices that are reasonable for its quality. Only thing I’d improve is the music, and which was a bit loud and resembled more a bar than a fine dining restaurant.

    This has become one of my favorite restaurants in NYC. It's upscale, without being pretentious. The service was outstanding. And, oh yes, the food was amazing. It's not inexpensive, but it's worth it.

    The MD/Host couldn’t find our reservation even after showing confirmation we were only offered a high top or lounge seat, not ideal when you expecting the beautiful MDR. The lights kept changing through out the meal, seemed like mgmt couldn’t get on the same page about the vibe. The service was fine. Cocktails took a while and they sent the app but let us keep to enjoy anyway. The special scallop app was amazing and the duck was superb. My biggest draw back of the night though, was the bussing. Our empty cocktail glasses stayed on the table until dessert hit. We finished these before apps hit. Any we love this place and the chef, we’ll be back, just make sure you call to confirm you res.
