Portofino - Levittown

The place was small, but the menu had many options and overall it was very good to eat.

It was a mediocre meal with nothing really inspiring, except maybe the calamari arrabbiata. Otherwise, all the staple items are on the menu in run of the mill style. The value is good and the food is just alright. I got the sense it relies more on its pizza and takeout business than the dining room. There is no real decor to it. The staff is nice however. So, it’s fine for a basic quick meal but there is nothing special that will make you want to return.

The food was excellent. Our server Maria was very polite and attentive. Highly recommend this place

After placing our order, we received our salad and bread basket. Unfortunately, the bread was cold, hard, and stale. When the salad was served, we requested it to be divided, but that didn’t happen. While it wasn’t a huge issue, a decent restaurant would have made that effort. There were no pepper or cheese shakers on the table, and the waitress was hard to find. I ended up having to check other tables for these items, which made the experience a bit frustrating. The salad was nothing special. When our main courses arrived, I ordered chicken masala, which was pretty good. My wife ordered veal piccata, and while the sauce was quite tasty, the artichoke hearts were tough and undercooked. The quality of the veal was disappointing; it was difficult to cut through, and I found myself wishing for a steak knife. Veal should be tender and easy to cut, not a struggle to eat. Overall, the meal was not worth the $20 price tag. I eat out 3 to 5 times a week and can honestly say I was not impressed at all.
