In this day and age, with plenty of Vidalia type sweet onions, there is no reason to ruin the hoagie with industrial strength onions...At $15.50 it was overpriced and subpar. One and done

I met a helpful sommelier whose parents emigrated from Italy to Philadelphia. Looking for the…read moreinside scoop, I asked what his favorite Italian restaurant is. Portobello Cafe. So we went! The restaurant has a charming and casual vibe. Both gentlemen tending the floor are from Italy, adding an air of authenticity. You can choose to sit outdoors -- I really like the way the patio is arranged --or in the cozy dining room. Once seated, you're brought a plate of roasted peppers and a basket of hard rolls. I sprinkled olive oil and grated salt on the plate, which proved a good idea with the peppers and rolls. There were a number of appetizer specials, but we went with a basic Caesar salad. One order, pre-apportioned in the kitchen, was perfect for the two of us. I ordered branzino as an entree T, linguini Pescatore. The whole fish is brought out and fileted tableside. While I took a photo, it was just one unflattering shot of the head (which I'm not posting.) The branzino was mild and flakey, good, though the seasoning didn't break through the skin rendering it a little bland. Excellent grilled potatoes and vegetables completed my dinner. My husband's linguini was delish; while the pasta isn't made in house, it tasted like it could be, served al dente, of course. The tomato sauce was spicy enough to bring the dish over the top. Portobello is byob. (Another Yelper mentioned an $8 corkage fee, but unless they forgot to charge us, they disbanded the policy.) After our meal, with takeout box packed -- there was a lot of fish -- we were offered amaretto as a digestif. A nice touch! The restaurant isn't all that convenient to where we live but we enjoyed dinner enough to warrant a repeat visit. Next time I'll try something Italian. Or maybe salmon, which looked pretty good. Reservations suggested, particularly on weekends.

I have been here a few times, with the first visit being the best of the three "attempted" visits, I believe. The first time we were so impressed with both the service and the food that we had been looking for every opportunity to go back and enjoy a meal without the distraction of other people or kids, and when we did finally secure that on a random Thursday early evening, we were sorely disappointed. We arrived at 4 in the afternoon, it was a bit busy for that time of day, with most of the seating already taken. However, there were several booths open as well as a larger table open. When we asked to be seated (no one else was waiting) we were politely told that there was nothing available and that all the remaining tables were reserved for people at 5pm. This is by no means the fault of the hostesses but there was also no reason we couldn't be seated and we left very disappointed and a bit bothered. So having a third chance to go to Santino's again, was also a good experience, just not as exciting and outstanding as the first. Our server was great, as the staff has always been, even when we were turned away, but nothing really stood out as anything special this time. The food was good, but nothing to write home about. I was sold on the meatball salad, which was a concept that seemed really strange to me at first, but then I cozied up to it and convinced myself it was a great, unique thing. It was bland at best, but still interesting! Everything else was just okay. Not what I remembered from the original time I had been here. All of that said, this is still somewhere I will go again. The draw of the unique, rotating menu is too great, and the people that work here are wonderful. Plus it's nearby and easy! Give Santino's a try. Maybe it was an off day the last time I was there and maybe the one time, they were simply too busy or worried we wouldn't be finished before their reserved seating showed up. Either way, it's worth some of your time, a taste, and some of your dollars.

I ordered 3 different sandwiches and everything was pretty perfect. Nonna Veggie is my new favorite sandwich, the sharp Italian reminds me of south philly old fashioned Italians hoagies of my youth and the whacked chicken is a fantastic sandwich. I'd recommend not getting a hot sandwich as they seem to mess these up, I've never had a problem with the cold ones. I'd also recommend ordering in person and waiting around, this way you know you're getting the freshest hoagie around. This Primo gets a bad rap for nothing. They fixed my problems and their local management really went above and beyond.

On another trip I ordered a cheesesteak on recommendation by the woman at the register. It was a miss. Average roll, too greasy and the meat blew out the side of the roll. It had a promising gooey cheesy first bite and then it was all downhill. Meat/cheese ratio was off, barely had any cheese and the roll was below average. Inside was clean, bright and they had a TV with sports on and the local news on my second visit. Staff was very nice, friendly and they take your food out to you.

It was so refreshing to hear their passion and excitement for their food offerings! Their menu is pretty well rounded, several types of burgers, chicken sandwiches, pizza's etc. It's an extensive menu. The owner, who was manning the pizza oven, was nice enough to let me try a fresh garlic knot which was very tasty! I went with a cheesesteak the first time which was on a fresh Amoroso roll. The sandwich came out quick and was one the of top 10 Delco cheesesteaks I have had. Light grease/clean roll, nice cheese to meat ratio, sliced meat but not chopped too fine, meat was seasoned and had nice flavor. The portion size was just right and the roll was definitely fresh. I added some hot peppers for extra flavor and kick. Second order was delivery, we had a Sicilian pizza delivered to the office. It was a solid offering. Lightly sweet sauce, fresh cheese and just the right thickness. I will have to try some of their other pizza offerings as well. Third order was a take out Cheeseburger. The 8 oz of Angus beef could have used some seasoning, but the lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, hot peps, mustard and ketchup toppings helped relieve the lack of beef flavor. The brioche roll they had it on was soft, fresh and fantastic. It was big portion. They are a little out of the way for me, but worth the trip to enjoy more of their menu. Definitely check these guys out!
