Let me start by saying that for years I felt this was a wonderful restaurant, the food is well prepared, hearty portions, and the ambience is casually elegant. However, there are so many rules & regulations governing the midweek special pricing, they now have a full page printout detailing them. And...

My wife and I have been eating here since Adam opened.The food is usually very good but as any other places can have an off night. We eat here at least twice a month the prices on the 2 for 1 can't be beat.The only problem that we have is the price of drinks is never the same prices depend on the ba...

I am thoroughly surprised to read all of these poor reviews! I have been going to this restaurant for years with my family and last night we went again, but this time (for the first time in her life) my daughter, who is almost 4 yrs old, ate a meal prepared by someone other than my family. She has...
I had Sunday dinner there with my family (6) people all together. This place has been here a very long time with faithful regulars. It's an old school experience with food and service that is good. The fried calamari and clams oreganato were delicious. When I asked if they can make a simple pasta bo...

By far one of the most rudest and obnoxious experiences ive ever dealt with in my life, First lets start with the positive big portions and a good value, But lets think about that how can all this food be so cheap quality sub par i dont even think my veal was veal, tasted more like pork if you ask ...

My family and I ate their last night. What a pleasant experience. The value on the 2 for 1 is great and the food and service outstanding. It's nice to see a place packed on a week night. Obviously they know what they are doing they are around a long time. Please keep it up.

We ate there last week. 2 for 1 cash special. Service was very good, but a glass of seltzer was $2.50 with NO refills. The salad was terrible and the pasta tasted like sheetrock. It's a shame the city doesn't close it.

DINING AT PORTOBELLO WAS A MONTHLY RITUAL FOR MY FRIENDS AND I FOR THE PAST FEW YEARS. THE QUALITY OF FOOD HAS DETERIORATED. THE 'DA BEST CHICKEN PARM' WAS HORRIBLE. THE MANAGEMENT LOUDLY AND PUBLICALLY BERATED A WAITER ON THE OPEN FLOOR UPSETTING MANY PATRONS. ALSO ON ANOTHER OCCASSION, DURING A...

What a horrible expierience, my family and I were dining and while we were eating, seated near the entrance to the kitchen we overheard screaming and yelling. The profanity was absurd we later learned that it was the owner Ive never been so turned off to a place in my life. A bunch of Kids running a...
La Roccas is one of the best places to eat on staten island. between the great food and almost 200 flavors of ices where could you go wrong? Try there great food and there famous Ices and Ice Cream.
Bario's is a local Pizza Parlor in a small overcrowded strip of stores in Heatland Village. It was recently redecorated and hundreds of photos that once grace it's walls were removed. It is much more subdued now, done in quieter tans and browns, hopefully to cater to a less noisier and slightly ol...

Traditional Italian dishes are absolutely delicious, but try to stay away from the asian inspired dishes, usually comes with some type of heavy sweet sauce. Service is average. Bartendars aren't very friendly but overall a good neighborhood restaurant.
A run in grab a slice to go place or an icee to go! Not a place cozy enough for a sit down meal. Pizza is good, their ices are fantastic, lots of flavors, nice sit down area outside for the summer months, inside not so nice. Doesn't look that clean or cozy for that matter due to it being very small ...
Best Pizza on Staten Island (that's right, better than Denino's). I've been ordering from this place for 25 years. The place is always packed. The Pizza is delicious - has just the right amount of ingrediants, sauce, cheese, always cooked to perfection. BTW, NO DELIVERY - Eat in or Carry Out.
Mediocre dining experience at best. Don't bother with delivery. I live 2 blocks away, have ordered from this place a couple of times. Each time delivery took close to an hour and the Pizza was cold and undercooked.

usually like dimly lit restaurants but pretty sure this was dark because it was dirty. went there as a guest at a birthday party, felt sorry for the host who paid. the waitress was the worst i've experienced, what little time she was at our table,bossy and lazy. there was no discerning that what i w...
