Took my parents to this location Christmas Eve for lunch.  Personally I'm a big lunch person because you pay less for almost the same amount of food as dinner time.  That aside, I've been a long time fan of Portofino's (SouthPark, Ayrsley & Eastway locations). There are days I literally CRAVE their pasta Mediterraneo (I always order mine with capellini).  For $7, you can't beat this.  Chopped seafood (definitely has calamari in it) with mussels and all stirred up in a creamy pink sauce... this is my FAV pasta choice.  And yes, I almost always order this dish, which is soooo against my normal rule of trying new things.\n\nDon't forget their bread, which is baked freshly... and a little tip: dip it in their house salad dressing!  OMG... it's awesome! (NOTE: if you are allergic to garlic, or don't like garlic, or don't want to smell like garlic, don't attempt this... but then why on earth are you in an italian restaurant?!)\n\nTheir other dishes are good too.  Pizza is huge, and was told to be very authentic NY style.  At my old work we used to order them for lunch, and the cheese would slide all over the place by the time I got it back to work because it's so fresh and hot (hence I'm not a pizza delivery person)\n\nThis location isn't as \"fancy\" looking, but it's close to my home.  For more romantic outings... you may want to drive a little further to the Park Road or Ayrsley location.
