A striking yellow building on the corner of Marsh Street in Hanley, Stoke on Trent, Portofino is a stylish Italian restaurant. One of two highly successful Portofino restaurants, the other found in New Brighton in Wallasey, this Hanley eatery has impressed the town’s diners with its fine menu of traditional Italian dishes and its elegant dining room. Its town centre location makes it a great choice for those on a night out and equally as good for lunch on a shopping day.
Enjoy a wide choice of traditional and authentic Italian dishes, all prepared to order and presented beautifully. The usual selection of fresh pasta and pizza dishes are on offer including a brilliant spaghetti with meatballs, chorizo, mushrooms and red wine sauce. As for the mains, the large prawns cooked with spices, chili, brandy, cream and tomatoes and served with rice are simply divine while the chargrilled chicken breast in a peppercorn sauce with seasonal vegetables and potatoes is another dish well worth trying. Vegetarians and children have their very own special menus whilst desserts should not be missed when the likes of homemade tiramisu or pannacotta feature.
Portofino oozes an elegant style yet offers a warm, laid back ambience at the same time. Attractive terracotta tiled floors are typically Italian whist modern, smart furnishings differ greatly from its more rustic styled sibling over in New Brighton.
Portofino is a superb addition to the restaurant scene of Hanley, offering diners a great place to head to for any kind of dining occasion and a wonderful Italian menu to indulge in any day of the week.
