Bravo! Went to Portofino on a very busy Saturday night around 9p. Four people with no reservation. They told us 10 minute wait and had us seated in 5. Service was prompt and attentive. Everything I had was absolutely delicious. I had the Fettuccini Alfredo with chicken. The Fettuccini was so light, clearly …

Expensive for what you get. Our server was perfectly nice and efficient, but the food was just okay and definitely not worth the prices. It had an old school feel. Drinks were just okay, too.

Love this place!! Amazing service, amazing food. Had the gnocchi, delicious!! Love the gluten free options, almost entire pasta menu is gluten free. Great wine list too. The owner, Francois, is super friendly and makes sure your night is good. Recommend this place 100 times iver

Great ambiance, good spaghetti bolognese, live music, energetic service. Would go back again!

So many restaurants in Quebec have the same menu of pizza, pasta, nachos etc, that it can be hard to stand out... while they do offer pizza and pasta, the wide range of pastas and quality of their food are what makes them so great. I had a Caesar salad and the pesto linguine and both were among the best I've ever had in my life. I'll remember that pesto linguine for the rest of my liiifffeeeee!

L’ambiance , le service , le personnel ... wow j’ai mangé le saumon au beurre blanc et c’était magique , jamais je n’avais mangé un aussi bon saumon , croustillant à l’extérieur et tendre à l’intérieur .

Cela fait quelques fois que nous y allons. Toujours reconnu, excellent service... la nourriture est excellente
Un restaurant à decouvrir! Une place ou l on se sens important peu importe le montant de votre facture.. merci a vous nous serons de retour!!! Gary

Un vrai restaurant italien avec un service A1

During a road trip, we stopped by Old Quebec to stay a few nights. That is how we got to tried this excellent restaurant. We actually walked from the hotel to the restaurant and took some time to appreciate the Old Quebec. I have to admit that finding a parking in this area looks pretty hard, I would recommend to park your car a bit further and just walk.
Now the crunchy part! The food is... plus

Great evening

We went to this restaurant last time we were in Quebec city, and we really enjoyed our evening. We used their valet parking service as it can be somewhat complicated to find a parking near the restaurant. It is very well located though, near the St-Jean street, Chateau Frontenac, Rue du Tresor, etc. We had a pretty good time. I had shrimps as an appetizer followed by a sea food linguine, it was... plus

Portofino Bistro Italiano: Best Italian restaurant in the old city

Like most restaurants located in the Vieux Quebec area, Portofino is incredibly charming and cosy. But perhaps was puts it one step ahead of some of its competitors and what makes it such a favourite with the locals and tourists alike is the outstanding service offered at this Italian bistro. The last time I was there was on New Year's Day, and the entire staff was incredibly friendly and... plus

Popular spot, went for business (12) and pleasure(2).
In Rustic Rue St Jean area. Satisfied my desire for tatsy Italian food, and sometimes they have live entertainment troubadour "bonus". Not a large place, good atmosphere.

Portofino Bistro Italiano: Great food in Old Quebec, but rushed service

I read about this restaurant in my guide book, and being a lover of Italian food and the fact that it was so close to my hotel, decided to try it out. We started off on a bit of a bad note, though. The guide book noted this restaurant has valet service, which comes in very handy in Old Quebec because there is virtually nowhere to park. We went into the restaurant and asked for valet, and were... plus

For some decent Italian food you can go to Portofino. Overall this is a good place to sit down and have a nice dinner. The wait can sometimes be long for dinner due to its location.
