Great Italian restaurant. We were in town for the day and dinner at Portofino was a nice way to top it off. We had the Eggplant Parmigiano and Shrimp Fra Diavolo with homemade pappardelle pasta.

Never disappointed!
We love to eat at Portafino, food is always delicious and we always request Julie our waitress because she remembers what we like and is always attentive and makes the dinner more pleasurable.

I have shared before on Portofino, and happy to do so again. EXCELLENT food! Waitstaff is always cheerful and pacing the meal very well. They do take reservations, which is a welcome change for most restaurants!

There was no wait on a Friday evening for a party of 6. The waitress was very attentive. Everyone ordered something different from each other and we all enjoyed our meals. I found the coffee a bit weak but next time I'll order cappuccino :-)

One of the best overall dining experience we have ever experienced hands down. The food was incredible, which happened to match the service, which was so far above and beyond anything we are used to. I cannot wait to return and try more of what they have to offer.

Authentic Food & Great Service
We visited on a weekday afternoon and this place was quiet. Perfect for social distancing in these Covid-19 times. We opted to sit outside as it was a glorious 75-degree day. The service was excellent and so was the food. We had an order of fried calamari (big rings, no tentacles, $11.50). The calamari were perfectly fried, and the m

Amazing fresh pasta. My first time going, was told everything made in house even the bread. I will go again and will get meatballs, thats my favorite so I cannot wait to go bzck. Little pricey especially when you order drinks, but really worth it. Everyone is so nice as well. I do not mind waiting a bit for fresh hot food.

I've been here a few times over the years. About five years ago I had the eggplant parmesan and it was amazing. I had it more recently and it was good but not quite as good as before. The service is good and the desserts are really tasty. This was my first time trying tartufo classico. Highly recommend.

Everything I've ever had here has been delicious. The veal parm was amazing, and their red sauce is one of the best I've ever had. As an added bonus Emily makes a fantastic drink, if she is tending bar your in for a treat.

This place has been nothing but amazing every time my girlfriend and I go. We always ask for Julie as she is the best server we have ever had. The food is all made to your order, and the drinks are exceptional. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a new place to eat in Merrimack!

Oh dear lord, where do I begin? I forgot to take pictures because I was enjoying the food so much. Unassuming outside, but inside is a family owned business, and they cook and prepare everything. We started with bread and calamari. The bread came with a homemade dipping sauce that had a perfect flavor balance. The fried calamari tas

Omg, this place is amazing. Family owned and very friendly team. It felt more like going to eat at aunties place instead of placing an order and waiting. Waitress/host checked in on us and made small talk. Always good to feel a connection to the people making your food. We were on the road so we plan on visiting again if we head that

My boyfriend and I came here for our second time for my birthday and we had such a wonderful experience. Our waitress, Julie, was phenomenal. She was so kind and let us know that everything was made to order which made us so happy because I canβt eat dairy. We love this place and have recommended it to our friends.
