I REALLY like Portofino's. This is a family owned chain in Charlotte, with locations peppered around the city. This specific review is for the Eastway location only.
Their food is spot-on every time. It is great for take-out and for dine-in. If you dine at the restaurant, be sure to check out their specials. Last month I was lucky to catch their fra diablo lobster special, while my husband got the osso bucco with gnocchi. Both were very good, but the lobster won the prize!
On rainy days make sure to check out their pasta menu. The Mediterraneo with fettucine is always a winner.
