portofino cucina italiana

the service is very good. but unfortunately the food just doesn’t cut it. i’ve been here a few times in the hope the food will get better, but unfortunately it just isn’t to the mission bayportofinostandards.

am always satisfied with the food i order every time i go there! if you want perfect italian food,portofinois the way to go. also, staff are always friendly and helpful and the restaurant itself is quite nice. would definitely visit over and over again :) highly recommend

went toportofinowith a group of 10 people and the whole experience was absolutely amazing! the service was great, such friendly staff. the food was delicious and lots of vegetarian options which was great. overall amazing experience and definitely plan to go back there!!

i was really in the mood for pasta so we dined atportofinoon a busy saturday night. the menu has extensive pasta options, along with a number of mains and pizza. we ordered some bread and olives to start, both were delicious and generous. i ordered the scallop rigatoni. our mains took around 40 mins to come, but we were happy chatting so was fine. when the rest of the table was served, i was informed that the kitchen got my order wrong and i had to wait a few more minutes. when it did come, my meal was piping hot but the scallops were over cooked and i thought the sauce was pretty tasteless.
my mum ordered a second glass of wine from the manager but it never came, which was frustrating however our waitress was great and apologised for his mistake.
most of the service was great but my meal was average at best.

we celebrated my birthday and it was fantastic! the staff and food were excellent. the atmosphere was good. my sister brought a cake and my family andportofinostaff sang a song together. we are going to come here again. thank you

food is absolutely amazing. great fan ofportofinonew plymouth so as soon as we heard hamilton was gettingportofinowe knew we were going. again, the food is amazing. the staff are great at what they do, attentive, friendly. am pretty much going every chance we have an excuse to

a group of 8 booked in for a ladies lunch at the newportofinohere in hamilton which is affiliated with the akldportofinorestaurant group. attentive service, fabulous pasta dishes(except for the rather ordinary lettucy salads) & smart decor combined to make us all feel rather special.
the trip to the bathrooms almost required a gps navigator but in sum would really recommend it to people wanting a yummy lunch or special dinner out, will definitely be returning for an evening meal.
