    It was very nice to have the chance to visit Portobello again since their reopening in Burnaby. Friendly and helpful staff and very welcoming visit by the chef. Menu although limited has something for everyone. If you want to share starters it is a bit limited. Wine list decent and not price gouging. The Risotto and Short Rib were excellent. Feedback from those who had the Cioppino Di Mare was that overall good, lovely broth but the prawns and squid a bit tough. We really enjoyed our evening and hope to return.

    The food was great of course but what really stood out was the service. The staff have years of experience and that makes a huge difference. Our server was friendly way without being too casual, busy but always prompt and attentive. Overall just professional. And once again, the dinner was excellent.

    The restaurant was noisy. Could hear conversations from guests at other tables. Could also hear the “pounding” from the kitchen. Service was good and food was also good. Not a refined dining experience like it was when it was The Pear Tree.
