(Didn't know that Germany has its own yelp community.)…read more Grew up at the apartment complex above Portofino for maybe 12 years, but even after moving to a different house (20 minutes away), my family still regularly visits this very friendly and welcoming place. My go-to order is and will always be Diavolo. I'm not a fan of spicy dishes (and this is a very spicy dish) but it's so delicious. I've been trying to find a place here in America that serves this dish as good as at Portofino, but I only came across a close second (Marri's Pizza & Italian restaurant in Anaheim) Still on the lookout.

I have to say I really, really like the concept here and wish we had something like this in the US…read more When you come in, you are given a "credit card" which is scanned that the food stations and presented when you leave as your bill. So you go up to any station (antipasti, salad, pasta, pizza, etc) tell the guys what you want and they whip it up fresh for you. So, you are getting fresh, quality food at a reasonable price (pizzas €6-8). And the key here is it's FAST. You don't have to wait around on a waitress for more drinks. Just go the bar, grab a beer and scan your card. When you're done, no waiting for the bill (one of my biggest pet peeves),you just give the host your card + pay and you're done. So - I had a pesto + spinach pizza which had a really nice pesto base with sauteed garlicky spinach and diced tomatoes. Very tasty and a nice crisp crust. In nice weather, there is outdoor seating sling the water. Very nice!

The atmosphere and personal were nice. The food really delicious and the prices were acceptable…read more Looking forward for the next time #inlove #amazingsoup

Please don't spend your hard earned money here. I came here with my girlfriend, because her mom…read moregave her a 100 euro gift certificate for two. We really had high expectations, considering the price, what else can you expect. We arrived and we were led into this very dark room. To sit in this room is very uncomfortable, it seems quite small, tight together as if all the tables were close together and it was very loud. The first course was this soup with potatoes, which seemed like soup of salt with potatoes. The saltiest soup I have ever had in my life. Really... Then it was a salad that was terrible just arugula with a big chunk of this supposed goat cheese, it was quite weird tasting. Then for main course was this gnocchi and these fried mushroom pastry thing which were super greasy and over the top nasty. It also came with this soggy spinach that must have been frozen before. I couldn't believe it. The last course was this chocolate mousse. Seemed like it would be from a box pre made. The only reason why I can justify one star to this place was because the hostess was very kind. Other than that, the food was absolutely terrible. Sad but true :(
