We selected this restaurant for the convenience of being located near the Malt Jupiter Theatre. Our appetizer of fried zucchini was delicious. Our dinner guests (wife must have gluten free food and told the waiter including asking about gluten free options) were served their appetizer of crab with crackers (not gluten free). They returned with the crab without the crackers (not ok if it was the same crab near the crackers). She also had her gluten free pasta primavera with scallops and crab but there were only a few pieces of vegetables and miniscule amount of crab (she did enjoy it otherwise). My veal marsala was just ok as the veal was not tender and the sauce was watery. One of the other meals was swordfish with asparagus but the asparagus was not cooked enough. My husband enjoyed his swordfish with escarole and beans and the one small croquette. Waiter and staff were attentive

Have eaten at Portobellos many times. Always enjoyed the food. This time I had a craving for good homemade meatballs and meat sauce. The meatballs and meat sauce were tasteless. Had to use a lot of salt and pepper to have any flavor. Disappointed! The rest of our party thoroughly enjoyed their meals.

Six of us had great dinner at Portobello. Food and service were great. We spilled a glass of wine and the waiter brought us another one and a free after dinner drinks for everyone. Our waiter helped select a veal dish that was one the best meals I have ever enjoyed.

We LOVE Portobellos!! It is one of our favorite restaurants and we make a point of going there for a meal each time we are in Jupiter! The servers are friendly and attentive and the food is delicious!

Have been to Portobello a number of times. During those times it's been good and consistent. This time it was neither. My partners meal was tasteless. We were seated outside. Our table was facing the setting sun and in my face. I was assured by the waiter that the sun would be down shortly. It wasn't. We had two veal based dinners, one appetizer , and two drinks. The bill was more than $250 not including tip.

Warm and welcoming from the moment you step inside. Our server was fantastic! He was very engaging and attentive. Wish I remembered his name so he could be commended! The food was delicious and the wine list extensive. Love coming back each time. The specials were delicious as well and soooo many choices. Back next month!!

The food was very good and service was also good with wait staff being attentive. However, I could not believe was was done that night. I gave the waiter the gift certificate I purchased on line. He said that the restaurant did not accept it because it was a holiday- Valentines Day. Last I checked banks and post office were open that day. Nowhere did you offer say that certificate was not good on Val Day. In fact, you offered a card that even said Happy Valentines Day. Your restaurant is too good to play such a pitiful game/ Bill Campo 215-527-6048

We were very pleased with our dinner at Portobello. Had not dined there before, but did some looking prior to making the resv. First off the service was excellent all the way around and our server Michael was A+. The menu is extensive and the atmosphere was just what we hoped for. We dined out on their covered patio (heated and shaded so you cannot see the parking lot or anything that would detract). We could hear ourselves speaking without raising our voices...excellent and cozy on a cool/breezy evening. Our drinks/wine were very good and not over priced given where we were. Appetizer salads were very good, entrees excellent (veal Sinatra, chick Marsala, chick Di Franco). Finished with a shared tartufo which was very nice. Inside dining and bar looked nice too, vibrant. If in the area again we'd certainly dine at Portobello again.

We could hardly understand our waiter. Between his accent and the fact that he spoke very quietly, it was difficult for us (and we got there early, before the restaurant filled up and got noisier). The food was great, but drinks were pushed too much!

Great selection of food and reasonably priced. Place is beautiful for special occasions (e.g., birthday celebration). All tables were full but we could talk amongst ourselves. I would definitely go back again. I recommend this place if you love Italian fare.
FABULOUS!! Portobello's food is top notch, so full of flavor, and the menu is so varied it will please anyone. Their fish specials are absolutely delicious, the pasta is always cooked perfectly, and the veal dishes are tender and wonderful. Nick, our server is on his game, as is all the wait staff there, and Marcel the bartender is a master. The owners are friendly and caring about their patrons. You must go

Service was attentive, but not rushed. Finally, a restaurant other than Tommy Bahama serving a nonalcoholic wine. Much appreciated by those of us who cannot drink alcohol for whatever reason. Portions are generous and my fish was cooked to perfection. All in all, a very nice evening.

Food, service and atmosphere were all on point. I highly recommend the crabmeat special as well as the Grouper entree. My wife had the Yellowtail (loved it) and my daughter and father/in-law both raved about the lobster ravioli. Pricey but worth it! We'll be back!

Took my sister for her birthday.Was treated very warmly. Her birthday was acknowledged.Our meal was excellent. We both had the stuffed pork chop.We had 2 appetizers which I thought were rather small but they were delicious. Will return soon because of the service we received.
