Il Porto - Berlin

We're just having our tomato soup thinking we should write a review. This is our second year coming to this honest Italian restaurant during ITB and we simply love it friendly Italian staff, true Italian food and lovely Italian atmosphere. We definitely recommend!

Il Porto is a REAL Italian restaurant. All staff, owner, cooks, weiters are Italians: thus the food is prepared like they would do at home, BUT with a level of phantasy and of quality that only in Christamas day we can find in Italy at...home : I strongly wish to come back to Pietro Piredda to eat his food again.

The pasta with spinach and scampi was extremely yummy. The freshly baked bread and olives just fantastic. Service was super attentive. Nice terrace with an overview of the mini-port on Adlershof.

The heading says it all. I booked on line and the response was helpful. On the night the service was very poor and seemingly the staff didn’t want us there. The pizza was good but I can’t recommend this venue.

On the plus side first of all, the food was good. On the minus side, it took forever to arrive minutes for a pizza and gnocchi). The worst aspect was the totally dismissive attitude of the waiter. We were a largish party of around...ten who were visiting before a concert nearby. He was fully aware of why were were there but spent more time chatting with locals and deliberately ignoring what was left of the remainder of the party who remained after the first to arrive had left. He didn’t even bother delivering a final order which I had to eventually cancel and asked for the bill. We had done nothing to provoke such an attitude and were actually really restrained in a very British way. Not a technique to get favourable reviews from people visiting before a concert I’d avoid the place if I were you.
