Unbelievable Italian Takeout. My mother, stepfather, and I all had the Veal Saltimbocca and we shared a Caprese appetizer. The quality of the food was excellent. It was ready to go upon my arrival. Better quality than North End Boston Italian food I've been served at prices that were $10-20 less per person. Friendly staff with excellent service. A definite sure thing for a date night or a family trip. You won't be disappointed. Very clean and upscale setting. Love the plasma televisions for sporting events! Enjoy! I will definitely go back to dine in on the weekend to use the free valet parking!

Portobello's food burst with such great flavors. There food is really good, try the mascarpone dish, it was excellent. I also like when the owner is an active worker, you can find him in the kitchen or behind the bar, we found him behind the bar, he made some good menu suggestions.

I don't normally write negative reviews. Any restaurant can have an off night. But this was hands down one of the worst meals I have ever had. I had some early misgivings when we walked into an empty restaurant, just a half-block away from the always ...

This is Worcester's best kept secret. Large portions of great Italian dishes. Nice fresh Italian bread and Marinara for dipping. Lots of takeout orders and you get seated pretty quickly too, if you want. Nothing fancy but great food.

This place is really for take out - it's crazy busy and there are only a couple tables. that said I am not tremendously impressed with this pizza. They skimp on the "good ingredients" I asked for a pizza with fresh tomatoes and fresh basil - I t ...

I liked the food very much, but for 3 entrees (1 side dish), it was pricey @ $40--comparable to restaurant prices w/o the service. They kept me on hold for longer than usual (just to ask what time they closed). However, I thought the pizza was the b ...

My wife and I just got back from Italy, it was great. Italy reminded us of our favorite Italian restaurant we eat in often, Portobello on Shrewsbury street in Worcester. The decor and the high quality of food made us both feel like we were eating in the little restaurant in a small village 3 miles outside of Rome. I suggest going to Portobello to get the Italian feel and great Italian food, you will enjoy it.

Portobello has been in business for over ten years on a very busy street. When I first entered Portobello, I felt like I was walking into a restaurant in Italy. The restaurant is headed by a profesional chef. Go to Portobello you will love it we did. Portobello is the way Italian restaurant are supposed to be.
