Portobello Cafe

Hidden gem!!! I am local to the restaurant and have been coming here for years with family. Not enough people know about this place. If you're looking for authentic Italian, this is a place to be. Everything is very fresh and super delicious. I have tried countless things off the menu and everything is so delicious every time. From the moment you walk in, you'll feel like you're in little Italy. With table cloth and all the tables, you will have an elevated experience. When the weather is nice, you can enjoy dinner outside! Pro tip: Save the bread to dip in the sauces or mop up the plate!

So had high expectations for this cafe after reading some reviews - ambience was good and My mom enjoyed her lobster raviolis I got chicken parm and it was decent - sauce on spaghetti and chicken was decent - I personally did not enjoy the salad or our app but then again I didn't try anything else on menu so hard to compare - it was kinda pricey but would give it another go if mom wants to go back on my next visit

A cozy local Italian restaurant that's been around a while. The food is really good. We sat outside on this most recent trip. Penne Vodka with Crab is probably their best dish. We also had the Cafe Portobello Pasta which is Fettucine, mushrooms (very fresh), and chicken, with Alfredo sauce. You get a basket of rolls before your entrees come out. I ordered a Diet Coke that had little to no carbonation. Other than that, it was a pleasant evening.

The place was cute on the inside, reminds me of a classic Italian restaurant. However the location is a bit awkward. I went here for lunch and I believe the waiter was the owner/manager. He was okay, but could be a bit better. The food was delicious, I had the lobster ravioli and ordered the eggplant parm to go for hubby. He enjoyed his entree as well. I would come back here for dinner even though I live about 45-50 min away.

Authentic Italian food little pricey but it is a byob. Food has always been solid. Great for lunch and dinner.

Absolutely loved this place! Felt right at home as soon as I walked in.Both servers were so friendly. We came for my Aunt's birthday and they were so kind to her.AppsMussels in white (loved the sauce)Eggplant rollatini special was deliciousFresh rolls on tableDipping oil was so flavorfulEntreePescatore- lots of fresh seafood and a great tasteI would def come back and I highly recommend

$8 corkage fee to unscrew a bottle of wine which when poured was spilled on the table. While tables around us had their glasses topped off...we did not!Although that was minimum compared to the actual meal itself...Ordered special appetizer Burrata with tomato- Fried Calamari as starters very clearly told the "waiter" DO NOT BRING them out together...they came out together...Calamari was borderline raw...ZERO salt and pepper and white...not slightly brown...or crispy like it should be.After that was cleared the $18 burrata with unripe tomatoes followed... my fault for ordering tomatoes in late November...their fault for having on the menu...So time for dinner! Ordered the Veal Parmigiana once again very clearly and politely asked for light sauce!! Did not happen and the veal itself tasted rancid with once again no salt or pepper....(even a fry cook at McDonald's knows the importance of seasoning food out of the fryer) so when some other "waiter" asked if I wanted a box I told him no and said there was way to much sauce on it...his response was "all you people around here like lots of sauce"... I DO NOT!!! I guess the really sad part there was an older couple sitting next to us, and the waiter said OK I'm gonna say the specials only once...since your close... you all can hear me...unfortunately, the older gentleman did not hear the waiter and when he asked for him to repeat the specials it's seemed to be a complete annoyance...but rudely responded.Not to mention the older couple (regulars‍) were celebrating their 53rd anniversary and left very disappointed...Clueless - Rude - overpriced for the "quality"

Stayed near the Philadelphia airport for an early flight and wanted a good dinner. This place was incredible. It's BYOB with a corking fee of $8 (well worth it). The chicken parm, seafood Alfredo, and veal were all incredible. The atmosphere was cozy on the patio and service was great.

We love coming here on dates and we also love coming for family occasions. My favorite go to is their special that has pappardelle noodles in a blush sauce with lobster tail and shrimp. The owners are incredibly nice

I wasn't so sure if I was going to like this place, but wow was I wrong! Honestly one of the best places in the area.
