On 7/25/2026 Megan Morter had this to say:
I ordered the chicken Alfredo with broccoli because It has been awhile since I've had Alfredo. I paid the $3 extra for the Italian wedding soup with my entrée. I ordered the bananas foster for dessert because I couldn't pass up the opportunity! Not many restaurants have bananas fosters. I enjoyed the meal and would very much recommend dining here. Edit: I have since tried many more dishes here. Chicken parmesean, Lasagna, ravioli and all were so good! The customer service is always great! 👍

Update : while we only eat here about once a year while we're on vacation, we have been consistently happy over the last 3 years. Everything I said before stands true. One of the things really valuable to me is that because of my hearing loss and hearing aids, conversation can be difficult in a restaurant. This place is very quiet, the background music is turned nice and low, and I was able to have a great conversation with my wife. Highly recommended. Probably the best restaurant in Portage. Original review: For a local restaurant this is top notch. Great bread, pasta, service. Decent beer selection, I appreciate that I was able to get a red ale. Love the seafood specials. The tiramisu was excellent, among the best we've had.

The food was excellent. The pasta was well-cooked and the stuffed mushroom appetizer was outstanding. The service was polite and efficient. We plan on eating here again next time we are in the area.

The lasagna was amazing. Staff was very friendly. Prices are good for the portion size you receive. We would definitely eat here again.

Stopped on our way up north. Just a chance pick and what a delightful surprise. We both had wonderful chicken dishes. It was real chicken, expertly cooked and the sauces were tasty and clearly homemade. Really good food! A gem for Portage!
