It's normally a ridiculously tasty menu and surprisingly well priced. I am a fan of their Zuppa de Mussles and I had ordered them yesterday...
While I was eating them I came across the cutest thing I have ever seen. I found 2 muscles the side of a pumpkin seed!!!! Never saw that before! I posted a pic.
However, when I ordered the garden house salad, it has always been just mixed green leaves salad and these 2 salads I ordered, were mostly mixed with Iceburg lettuce?!!??!! Iceburg is the cheapest lettuce you can buy. At what point did they start to cheapen their reputation and menu? VERY disappointed and won't be buying salads anymore from them. On top of that, the salad also was like 25% smaller than usual...got that people need to make money but this was crazy.
Portobello: update your menu description and price so when returning customers know they are not getting what they normally have gotten before. Still disappointed and sad you went down the Iceburg route:(
Also your Pasta Fagioli soup has kiddy ring pasta?reminds me of spaghetti "O"'s!...really? The texture of the pasta felt like it was put in simmering hot water rather than hot boiling water that made the gummy texture unappealing. Same thing with the Minestrone soup. Never had pasta in it before...it's strictly a veggie ingredient soup? What's with the pasta in it now?
Also the wait staff must have hired new people...ordering over the phone was painful this time...She did not know the menu or items I tried to place without putting me on hold to ask. Yo! It's American style Italian food! Not much to understand. I had her repeat my order and it took like 3 tries to ensure she understood.
Makes me NOT wanna order from them anymore.
Ho Hum!:(

The food is consistently delicious and the service is friendly and attentive. I grew up in an Italian family so I know what I'm eating. This is the real thing. Interestingly, I never see the same people behind the counter so I'm not sure if the restaurant has changed owners, but whoever owns the place got the recipe right. It's an old- school neighborhood gem. read less

I had me wedding rehearsal dinner here 12 years ago and come to eat here every time I am in the area. Classic Italian comfort food. They make an awesome veal francese and marsala. The shrimp parmigiana is fantastic. Sublime garlic and out pasta and wonderful salads. Peroni Italian beer on tap and wonderful service. Although it is a pizza place too, oddly I've never had it. read less

The owners are amazing, MOST off the staff is amazing and friendly! You wont ever be dissatisfied when you come here and if you are, you must be very difficult to please generally lol
Portobello is also one of the very few restaurants to open a long time ago and still remain using great quality food/ingredients....most places these days do not do that, the go cheap on a lot of things to make more money! Not this place. They are always very consistent and that's why I give them 20 stars all the way baby!
Xo, customer of 20 years & counting !

I know Porto Bello is not a five star restaurant, BUT when you are eating like a king or queen quality fresh Italian, I have to give this restaurant their due.
The menu is abundant, but well thought out. The quality of all these dishes are really good for such a vast menu. Fresh Italian food served in large portions is what it's all about and Porto Bello delivers.
Wifey had her usual favorite penne Madeira. I had the Filet ol Sole Italian style with zuppa di Mari and a side of garlic linguini. Left super satisfied.
Porto Bello will always have me going back. read less

Don't get me wrong, I love me a good Greek salad, and being in Astoria you can find one at any corner...but there's a difference between a Greek salad, and one of those diner-style "Greek" salads...and sometimes, this chick wants the diner version. Porto Bello to the rescue!
I got a greek salad with chicken and it was huge, with a hefty portion of chicken (yay protein!). It was fresh, delicious, and I have so much left over I can feed another person. I also got the eggplant sticks and they're great! A sinful side dish to an overall healthy dinner. Get marinara on the side and dip away.
What I like about Porto Bello is it's one of those half-pizzeria-half-sit-down-restaurants that's family run, and you can totally feel it too! read less

My go to is the pepperoni pin wheel and the salad slice and that's if I'm not sharing the penne vodka personal with my husband.
And this place isn't all about the pizza and Italian dishes, they also have wraps--the chicken semi freddo wrap(doesn't come with fries, need to add) is so good!
I've had parties here too and they are always done so nicely. The wait staff whether for the parties or just a night out for dinner, always so nice!
I will be coming here for years to come. read less

Lately I've been experiencing a hit or miss with Porto Bello, sometimes the pasta isn't seasoned well enough, or there isn't enough sauce in it. But I just ordered my usual dish and it's amazing. Wow! I don't know who's working the kitchen tonight but please high-five yourself because I love you. Self-five yourself.
The sauce is plentiful, the pasta is cooked perfectly, my no spinach request was met, the breaded chicken is incredible, the flavor punches me in the face every time I take a bite and that's just what I'm able to utter when I'm not too busy falling into a world of deliciousness. I never write reviews but this is SO GOOD today I re-downloaded Yelp just to express myself.
GREAT JOB PORTO BELLO! read less
