"This is a must visit restaurant. I’ve eaten at a lot of fine dining / Michelin restaurants world-wide, and the dishes we had at Restaurant Portal were on par if not better than most.
What this restaurant does with food and flavors is masterful, fun, and unique. Everything is fresh. From the ingredients to the menu items, which plays with different and refreshing combinations of ingredients. Anything experimental was expertly balanced so they didn’t overpower the dish.
There’s something on the menu for the everyone and it’s extremely affordable. Additionally, the team is friendly and knowledgeable. Everyone is very humble but has a quiet pride about their food — as they should because their dishes are spectacular.
This was a memorable dining experience and we hope to return someday to try whatever new and exciting dishes Restaurant Portal has created."

"Don’t post too often but had to here, it’s so good.
Fantastic!
Head and shoulders above everywhere else we tried, in food, wine and service.
Serve great versions of the local specialties, but also inventive and delicious other dishes.
Great wines too, and they take care to give you options and recommendations."
