This is the newest location of Porta Via.
I am happy that they opens up in Markham, as now I have another options if I want to have a healthy lunch option.
Soup and Sandwich at $8.75 and with an extra soup $10.75.
There are usually 2 soups to choose from one Vegan and the other is usually vegetarian.. great if you has special dietary requirement.
There are quite a good selections of panini and you can get the kind of bread you would like...
Salad/Beet Soup/Beef with Brie on Francese Bread
- Salad is smallish... the vinaigrette dressing is quite nice and tangy
- Soup is beet puree seasoned with a hint of black pepper, really simple
- I love my Francese Bread, so crusty... the in house roasted beef is quite moist and lean...
- It will be more perfect if the sandwich has left in the grill a little longer
The deco is clean and simple. The disposable metal look alike plastic utensils would be nice if they are real utensils for eat in patrons.
A little pricey than my usual lunch but I guess that's the price one pay for good and healthy ingredients!
Luckily they accepts all credit cards.. at least I still can pay for my lunch!
