A L'Ombra de la Tore In Portogruaro

I was looking forward to trying this restaurant, but ended up quite disappointed. The pasta I ordered was noticeably undercooked — the center was still powdery and tasted raw. When we mentioned it to the staff, they told us, “It’s because Italians like it al dente.” I understand what al dente means — pasta that is firm to the bite, not uncooked in the center. This wasn’t al dente; it simply wasn’t cooked enough. At first, the staff didn’t seem willing to adjust the dish, but eventually they did send it back to the kitchen to be cooked a bit more. While I appreciate that, the initial response felt dismissive and gave me the impression that my feedback wasn’t being taken seriously. I hope the restaurant can improve both the cooking and how they handle customer concerns.

Nice and tasty dishes Attentive service

Luogo ideale per aperitivi, punto di ritrovo per tutti, ottimo ristorante in una location davvero carina. Consigliato! (Prezzi nella media)

Excellent food and wines 🔝 the staff were very friendly and always available. Highly recommended.

I love this place, I find it characteristic, it's like feeling at home...excellent menu and for an aperitif stop their cicchetti are formidable, great choice of local wines. The management has some really smart young owners, congratulations 👏👏👏
