The grilled shrimp appetizer was served in a lovely lemon sauce w/ rosemary and lemon zest. (Ate it before I took pictures, sorry!) Yes, the shrimp were great with it, but the fresh bread sopped up the yumminess and made it perfect! Next was the Spaghetti with Pistachio Pesto - perfect serving size and I ate every bite! Changing the pesto for pistachio & topped with fresh ricotta made the dish lighter and an original game-changer. Next was Pollo Sorentino - perfect sized chicken breast w/ spinach, eggplant slice, prosciutto slice and light sauce. We were all members of the clean-plate-club. There is a front covered patio with about 5-6 tables if you want to people watch.

This time the waitress took forever and forgot way too many things - which we had to ask for several times. The food was alright. Not the best. The eggplant parmigiana was not what I was used to. It was very soggy and wet. The cheese was good. Noodles weren't cooked all the way but it tasted fine overall. Apparently the other dishes were good. The house salad and Italian dressing were not impressive either. That Italian dressing is not good whatsoever. The staff seem friendly and honest when you ask how something is. So that's def a bonus. Building wasn't too busy or loud either which I quite enjoyed. Seems like an easy spot for family dinners. But def won't be returning of my own free will again.

The restaurant also has a nice atmosphere with great décor. That said, I don't think it's much of a family restaurant--it's better suited for adults. I also think the breakfast menu could use some updates. At most breakfast restaurants, you're able to substitute eggs for another side, but that wasn't an option here. I also found the breakfast menu a little confusing and think it could be organized more clearly. Overall, I had a good experience, and with a few improvements to the breakfast menu, it could be even better.

It looks like it would be more of an upscale place, but I would say it's a normal eatery that works well for a casual lunch or something a little nicer too. They offered a selection of lunch specials as well as their regular menu with appetizers, salads, subs, pasta, etc. After much deliberation (the server stopped by probably three times and we still weren't ready) I decided on the fettuccine with white clam sauce which came with some bread and butter, and soup or salad. I went with the soup of the day which was chicken orzo. My mom chose the lamb gyro sandwich and for her side she went with the veggie of the day which was roasted Brussels sprouts with honey. Overall I thought the food was good. It was definitely well-seasoned. The orzo in the soup was a little mushy for my preference, but the fettuccine was a good texture. The white clam sauce was loaded with clams and garlic. I really enjoyed my dish. My mom enjoyed her gyro sandwich, I did take a small taste of the lamb and it was delicious. The Brussels sprouts were probably my favorite of everything though. They were roasted perfectly, still a little firm with some crispier toastier leaves in the mix and a sweet glaze. The service was fine, I thought the server was very nice. She was most attentive when waiting for us to order, and at the end of our meal she boxed our food up for us which is always a nice touch. I would definitely eat here again, there are many more menu items I would love to try!

KEY POINTS Beautiful…read morelocation, facility, and grounds Average overpriced food Horrendous service MY EXPERIENCE I am unsure where to start. I had wanted to bring my wife to Portico for several years but never found the time. So on Friday, July 10, 2026, I decided we would try them out for lunch first before committing to dinner. So off we went with a well-behaved 3-year-old and 5-year-old. They were busier than I expected for a lunchtime and only seemed to have patio seating available, which we gladly accepted. So, we were seated and unfortunately waited an extreme amount of time (north of 12-15 minutes) for any contact to occur. The person who contacted us first was a host or runner who brought us water and told us that a server would be with us soon. So, they already had "strike 1" in my head. Another 8-10 minutes came and went... So, we are now at over 20 minutes with no server contact. At that moment, Madeline arrives. At this point, we had decided to place our drink and food order at one time to avoid further delays. NOTE: We were not in a rush at all but expected reasonable service. Madeline took our order and (I assume) placed it with the kitchen. We waited 20-25 minutes, which was not a terrible wait time, but for a lunch of two sandwiches and a small pizza, it was not an appropriate wait time either, especially given the over 20-minute wait to even see our server. OK, so our food arrives (it is not our server delivering our food), and of all things, the most important item was wrong!! We had ordered the Pizza Piccante with NO grilled spicy pepperoncini, as the boys (3 and 5) had requested. Well, it was covered in them--I mean, covered! So, we tell the food server it was wrong, and then we wait, and we wait, and nothing! So, finally, Madeline comes by and asks if everything is alright, and we say, "No, we ordered the pizza without peppers." She said she was sorry and said that she would put the pizza order back into the kitchen. I told her, "No, we don't have the time..." She then stood there kind of dumbfounded, and after a very awkward silence, she said she would take care of it and take it off. So here we are, having waited just under an hour with hungry children, and they have no food, or we can wait another 20 minutes for them to attempt to get it right... NOPE! Not happening. So we just shared our food (pork sandwich and club sandwich) with the boys. We would just feed them elsewhere... what a disaster. My surprise when I thought that was rock bottom... Now we sit with 3 out of 4 glasses empty and no Madeline... Oh, she was around, but not serving us any longer, apparently! Madeline walked by our table 6 (SIX) times and never looked our way or refilled our glasses, none of them! At this point I am fuming inside, so I requested my wife handle things from here and flag down Madeline for refills as we were consuming a dry pork sandwich and a pretty good, but average, club sandwich with two little boys who were amazing in their behavior even though they had not been served what they ordered. So Madeline refilled only one glass, my wife's iced tea... um, she had to be flagged down again to refill the boys' lemonade... wow! I was having water, so I just kept refilling mine from the other 3 glasses on the table. One of the last things Madeline did was offer us a remake of the pizza as a to-go item. Her exact words were, "Can get them to make you a new pizza to go." I said no, and then Madeline said, "On us." I looked at my wife, and she told her, "Sure." Ha ha ha... we were charged for it. I took the boys to the car, and my wallet handled the cash-out of our check. My wife wrote her a 'to the point' kind and gentle note on the guest check about how terrible this experience was... My wife also chose not to tip her and explained that we tip on service, not check total. A FEW NOTES: It has been more than 10 years since we have tipped zero and, in fact, have left several $50.00 tips on bills under $100. Additionally, maybe, just maybe I just didn't look right, though I was dressed in formal shorts and a polo shirt... I have a dark beard and a wrap on my head that makes me look a certain way, though I am Italian. Not saying that was the issue, but I very much stuck out in the crowd. Just a thought. I will not return to Portico ever. Here is my advice to any readers of this review: Food is average, cost is high, and the environment is worth the overly inflated cost of the food; service was an abomination. If you have that rich look (you know the one), like you have a child or grandchild at the University of Richmond or an Ivy League school... You should be fine. LASTLY, I have not written or left a bad review in many years.
