We arrived at this delightful restaurant by chance from Treviso and were welcomed by the young and highly competent staff. The ambiance is meticulously maintained, with dining options available in the garden or in an elegant and refined interior dining room that showcases the stone walls. The excellent dishes offer an innovative and creative dining experience. Compliments to the Chef and all the staff!

A restaurant straight out of a Thousand and One Nights!!! The highest quality service, incredible care and attention to detail! Perfect for romantic and formal dinners! The quality of the food is indescribable! The fish dishes brought the sea to our mouths, and the meat dishes were full of flavor and balance, for true connoisseurs! Nothing to envy of Michelin-starred restaurants; in fact, in many ways, they are far superior. Wonderful and professional staff.

The flavors in each dish were perfectly balanced, and the ingredients tasted incredibly fresh to perfection. We having really awesome time. Service excellence and the ambiance was cozy and inviting.

The restaurant has a small entrance, but inside it is really elegant and well furnished. It has an internal area and a very elegant external area. The service is kind and precise, we had the spicy soup and the millefoglie, then the risotto and tagliolini with sea urchins. The risotto is a feast for the palate, high quality and respected raw materials. Very good, we will be back.

I made a reservation for a birthday dinner for 2 people, one person being vegetarian and me having a ton of food allergies, which meant that the menu would have been a challenge since the food had to be basically vegan with no nuts. I was positively surprised, all dishes were amazing with seasonal ingredients. The waiters and generally the people working at the reception were fantastic and all communication, especially when making the reservation and explaining my food allergies went smoothly. The ambiance was warm and welcoming and we really enjoyed dinner and had a wonderful evening. Long story short, I'd come back any time and would consider some weekend trips to Lecco just to eat at Porticciolo again :)
