Porto By Antonio

Cute wood burning pizza place in Edgewater with an extensive menu. I had the arugula salad with Gorgonzola cheese, pears, and walnuts and the burrata picante as appetizers here. I thought both were ok/good. I was looking forward to tasting more honey in the burrata picante dish as it was described on the menu. The focaccia bread it was supposed to come with wasn’t actually focaccia bread, but more like pita bread. I wasn’t impressed enough with either to order them again. I’ll try different appetizers next time. I had the Quattro Formaggio and the La Montanara pizzas. Both were very good! The best one out of the two was the La Montanara. The dough to that pizza is delicious! They should make all the pizzas that way. They fry the dough before they put in the the brick oven. The tomato sauce it was topped was really good! The only complaint is they didn’t put enough sauce on that pizza. They needed to spread it out closer to the edges. The Quattro Formaggio pizza was topped with high quality cheeses. You can actually taste the Gorgonzola, mozzarella, parmesan, and ricotta. For dessert I had the fried Oreos which were so good! The next time I want to try their Nutella Zeppolis! I saw someone order them, and they were raving over them! Porto By Antonio makes a really good pizza using high quality ingredients. I recommend Porto By Antonio in Edgewater!

Went to Porto by Antonio with high Hope's the other day for lunch, I have my favorite places for lunch but sometimes I like to try new places and give the little guys a chance at my business. The place is really cool, it's actually an old garage. The seats are metal and most uncomfortable to start, the staff is friendly but you get a sense from them as if their doing you a favor for being there. I placed a request for a pitcher of red sangria for my wife and I, comes a tiny little thing filled to the top with ice, you might get 1 and a half of a full glass of sangria if you removed all the ice. For this pleasure you will pay 25 dollars. Also not sure how much alcohol in it but very weak to top it off. Should have walked out then and there as my wife suggested especially after calling over what seemed to be the head guy and letting him know of my annoyance of this little tiny 1 and a half glass 25 dollar weak full of ice pitcher of sangria, but we didn't. Went on to order 3 appetizers that where expensive and not all that great. Ordered 2 different pizza pies, which is actually small personal pie for 1 pretty good but again very overpriced for what it is. I guess if your into a place with a cool ambieance, very expensive food, weak expensive small portioned drinks and a Luke warm waitering staff this is the place for you. As for me my motto is this, you only get me once. I will never set foot in there again. I rate Porto a one star. By the way if you want reasonable really excellent food a super friendly staff and a real size pitcher of sangria that actually has a nice kick to it, check out Viva Margarita which one block down from Portos.

Very good .

Excellent Food!

Awesome food amazing pizza
