The sandwiches were a delicious and welcome snack. Yes, prices may be slightly higher than other places, but that’s to be expected in a tourist destination.

Las bajas estrellas son de un antiguo propietario. No sabíamos donde comer en Portofino y lo encontramos pos casualidad. La atención ha sido muy buena , la cocina (platos locales) delicioso. Nos han traído agua para perras y han sido muy amables. Da igual sino es primera línea ,hemos comido muy bien

Espresso für 3€ preislich in Ordnung - auch der Geschmack stimmte. Für eine Bruschetta Portofino mussten wir 8,50€ hinblättern, aber das ist für diesen teuren Luxusort eigentlich wenig. Geschmacklich wirklich gut. Pizzen wirkten klein mit sehr wenig Belag - haben aufgrund dessen auch keine gegessen. Daher können wir den Geschmack nicht beurteilen.
