Portico Italian Social Food: Reviews & Ratings

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with such warmth and kindness — the staff truly go above and beyond to make you feel welcome. The food was absolutely outstanding. I ordered the lasagna, and it was easily one of the best I’ve ever had — perfectly layered, rich in flavor, and absolutely melt-in-your-mouth tender. You can really tell that the pasta is handmade fresh in-house — it had such an incredible texture and delicate taste that you just can’t find everywhere. Every bite was perfection. I will definitely be coming back and trying even more dishes. I highly recommend this place to anyone who loves authentic, high-quality Italian food. If you’re a pasta lover like me, you must try their house-made pastas — they are truly something special. Overall, an amazing experience all around — from the food to the atmosphere to the genuinely sweet and attentive staff. 10/10!

Our waiter , who seemed to also be the manager, was perfect. She even speaks fluent Italian. And seemed to intuit what I wanted before I asked. The food is wonderful. The lasagne the best I’ve had in a long time.

My husband and I wanted to explore somewhere new and I'm so happy we chose Portico! I ordered the gnocchi and my husband ordered another pasta dish. Both were so delicious and our server was very friendly and helpful! After our main dishes, we both got gelato which was also great. Overall, we'll be returning in the future.

Visited my sister in Sebastepol with my other 2 siblings (1.5 hr drive for me). We walked along downtown & stopped to look at posted menus before turning back around to come to Portico & SO SO glad we did! We sat outside on a lovely Sat afternoon & had the best service & some of the best food & desserts ive ever had! My sister has traveled abroad & let us know how authentic everything was (the owner is from Italy & is a wonderful cook & baker!) I really would like to bring my siblings & parents here for their Anniversary soon & would definitely try to purchase a whole cake & tiramisu. Everything we ordered was 100% absolutely delicious & I will gladly make the drive just to eat here again. Italians love to feed people & as a food lover, I appreciate that! Homemade everything!

My husband and I popped in here while out puttering around. I’m so glad we did! We were planning on just ordering appetizers but they were so good we needed up sharing a pasta dish too. It was incredible! Every bite we had was delicious. We are planning our next visit already!

One of our friends told us about this place about a year ago and we've been wanting to try it, don't know why we waited so long, it was fantastic, everything about this place was great. Nice little menu of Italian wines, we chose a bottle of the montepulciano and ordered the beet and chevre salad and had the 12 layer lasagna and the peas, cream and prosciutto pasta. Everything was amazing and absolutely delicious, can't wait to come back and work through the menu!

Francesca was amazing and steered us to the best dishes. Loved the cream , peas and prosciutto with fresh made pappardelle pasta. The saffron cream with roast veggies was great. The homemade tiramisu and chocolate cherry cake were outstanding.

Absolutely hands down some of the best Italian food ever. Homemade pasta. Outstanding service. So friendly. Highly recommend Portico.. You will not be disappointed. We had salad and burrata. A main dish each, sangria- the best I’ve ever had and 2 desserts. Reasonably priced.
