Portofino Bistro Italiano

 
Portofino Bistro Italiano

Superb Italian restaurant/bistro that is a favourite among local residents. Located in the heart of Old Québec, near tourist attractions and Hotel Du Vieux Quebec, in a historic house built in 1760. The food, attractive décor and warm, friendly atmosphere have made the Portofino one of the most popular restaurants in town.

By joining two 18th-century houses, owner James Monti has created an Italian restaurant with a bistro flavor. The room is distinctive: burnt-sienna walls, soccer flags hanging from the ceiling, a wood pizza oven set behind a semicircular bar, and deep-blue tablecloths and chairs. Don't miss the thin-crust pizza and its accompaniment of oils flavored with pepper and oregano. The pennini all'arrabbiata -- tubular pasta with a spicy tomato sauce -- is also good. Save room for the homemade tiramisu. From 3 PM to 7 PM the restaurant serves a beer-and-pizza meal for less than C$11. Guillermo Saldana performs music to eat to each weeknight.
