    Jerry, our server, was on point. He was informative with some tweaks to the menu, enthusiastic about the service and our food and made for a great evening. The food was delicious and the wine prices are the best you will find anywhere. They have a limited (25-30 choices) but good selection of wines you know well and enjoy that are priced at near cost. Seriously, they price the bottle for half to a third of other restaurant prices. The food is very good and flavorful with most dishes under $30. The Italian chopped salad is a great meal all by itself. We recommend the Wild Boar Bolognese if you want a savory pasta and meat dish.

    As always, Porta’Vino knocked Christmas Eve dinner out of the park. The food was delicious, the wine spectacular and Jerry’s customer service and great humor was just the cherry on top. Thank you for making our experience so perfect!

    I strongly recommend that you upgrade your seating. They are very uncomfortable chairs and brutal to try and get through a meal. They push you to leave early they are so uncomfortable. We had a new waiter and he was trying very hard. Was on the slow side but I understand that he just got out of training. Pork chop was great!

    Waited over half an hour after our reservation time to be sat, beets on my beet salad were only half done. Appetizer given to us because of our wait was cold and of the 2 pasta dishes, one was very good and the other was undercooked and also cold. Probably compounded their situation that they had a very popular wine being offered as a tasting so maybe they just got behind and couldn’t catch up.
