We had a very good experience at the Portobello Grille - Jones Creek. The atmosphere is casual and fun. A large restaurant with Italian decor, a full cocktail bar and well spaced seating. The food is a combination of local specialties and Italian dishes and is good. Our server was very friendly and very attentive.

Absolutely delicious! Had dinner and drinks a few nights ago with my partner and everything was beyond tasty. We ordered appetizers, drinks, entrées, and had to try the white chocolate bread pudding for dessert. Nothing disappointed. The staff was very friendly and attentive and even brought us out the cutest complimentary cotton candy. Can't wait for our next visit to try more of their delicious menu.

Cajun Italian? Heck yeah!! This place was a jewel! From the decor to the staff and ultimately the food. It was packed for Mother’s Day and the food took a while, but the conversation with other patrons and the staff made it seem like nothing. Now on to the food. The crab cheese cake sounds crazy, and it is!! Insanely delicious!! I had the sausage frittata and it was fantastic. My wife had the Italian shrimp and grits. These weee perfect too. She also had the lemon blueberry tart and it was incredible. I cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed this restaurant. Definitely a return attraction.

I visited Portobello’s for the first time today. The starter bread and oil is amazing! I ordered the chicken parm and will say that the chicken was probably the best chicken with chicken parm I’ve ever had. My wife got the lasagna and is very picky about that dish and loved hers. It was very good sized portions. Brooke was our waitress and couldn’t ask for better service. Not one time did I have to ask for my drink to be refilled and all of the way to the final moment there she was attentive and such a great server. We will be back and suggest this to others. The price was not bad at all and worth the cost of this visit.

Always a great experience when coming here, its one of my favorite places to bring others simply because the food is ALWAYS excellent from A-Z on the menu this restaurant doesn’t miss. Plenty of options tons of flavor in every bite. Our server was Christine and I could not have asked for a more kind and attentive server. We will continue to come back here, come try it for yourself!
