    We got in really late in our first night in Milan. We walked in this restaurant at 1150PM and they close at 1230. They still allowed us to eat :) We went here in a whim, and only because nothing else was open. Omg, this was such a great find! Everything tasted amazing. This restaurant set a good tone for the rest of our Italy trip. First meal and in Italy and it wasn't even a highly reviewed spot on my yelp list. Everything tasted amazing!! We had 3 items (carbonara, carpacccio, and pizza + house wine a whole liter and the bill was only about 41 euros!

    Delicious food. Friendly staff! Even gave me some free bread to go with my meal and even though I didn't speak italian they were understanding! I got the spaghetti alla puttanesca with bruschetta pomodoro. 10/10.

    We arrived at 7.30 pm on a Saturday evening without a reservation. Around 1 hour later, there were no more tables and people started to have to wait in line. In addition, this place is quite small. It has only around 15 tables. Thus, it is better to make a reservation. The food is very good. I would highly recommend Spaghetti Portobello, which is basically seafood spaghetti. Their menu is diverse: pasta, pizza, second dishes with fishes or meats, seafood salad, cheese, etc. You would rarely find cheaper restaurants than this in Milan. The restaurant is located in a quiet corner near Corso Buenos Aires, which is one of the major streets in Milan for shopping. It just takes ~10-15 minutes of walking to escape the busy street and the crowds to enjoy great food.

    Seafood salad. Too late.

    Just what you need. It has everything I love about Italy. I could eat here every day. Portobello has been here since the late 70's. The local guy that turned me on to it reveled in the throw back look of the place. As an outsider I cannot parse the subtle aesthetic signs of 70's Italy from the decor but I can say it has the fabric table cloth, 2 rooms, seafood bar, pizza oven, friendly server vibe I see all over this city but it just is so smooth and natural here. People fill up the place and have a good time. I just contains all the exuberant talkative energy of Italian dinners. So the food. I have never had a bad meal and there is lots I'd like to try but I always end up with the same meal. I have been here more than any other resturant in Milan but I just can come enough as a visit to the city to get beyond my fix. Which is the seafood salad and mix seafood pasta. I think of this a seafood and pizza place. Fresh and savory. Oh how I love seafood salad in Italy. I eat plenty of Italian food at home in the States but I never eat seafood salad out of the country. It doesn't seem as fresh or at home. If I had one critique is the bread they put on the table is boring and a bit dry. They could do better. Anyway. I wouldn't give this spot away if I lived here and had to fight a crowd. There are plenty of fancier spots in the city and I suppose everyone should find their own goto place for comfort foods. But if you are in the neighborhood skip the fancy stuff and stop by and try my favorite spot.

    Excellent place for dinner. Places are reasonable, with a wide variety of items, from Pizza to Seafood. Wine selection is reasonable, with great prices. However, you need to make a reservation because otherwise you might not find a table. Some photos included.

We came for lunch and once we sat down, we could tell the locals also came for lunch. Had an amazing vegetarian macaroni dish. It was colorful and flavorful! Great ambiance as well. This may have been our best meal of the trip!! Can't wait to go back!

Seated very quickly, nice clean restaurant and nice waiters although language barrier made ordering a bit clunky. My wife got the ravioli while my friend and I got the bolognese lasagna. My wife said the ravioli was good not great and our lasagna was very tasty but room temperature. I like my food hot. The other person at our table got salmon and it was way overcooked and very tough. Not sure why our other party got Salmon at an Italian restaurant in Italy but to each his own. If you want a glass of wine you only have two choices, white wine and red wine. No other available. This is probably because the restaurant doesn't carry large inventories of wine due to their small size and cost. Overall no way is this above an average restaurant. It's just okay. Heat up your lasagna better, teach your chef how to cook Salmon and expand your glasses of wine selections.
