    If I were basing this review on the quality of the pizza alone, it would be getting 5 stars. This…read moreis thin Neapolitan style pizza - the base perfectly made, thin, and with a slight lick of flame from the wood fired oven. The toppings? Great. The Zucca (pumpkin, ricotta, caramelised leeks and fresh oregano) got the thumbs up all round, while the Salumi (tomato, fior de latte, salumi, roasted capsicum, onion jam) came a close second in being named favourite for the night. Value wise, it's excellent. A group of 8 of us tried to defeat 5 large pizzas after a "comfit" (urgh, can't stand a menu typo!) garlic focaccia and two salads (spinach, pea, mint with lemon dressing) and sadly had to leave a few slices as we were just too full. A large pizza is $18 and for this quality I think it an absolute bargain. Next time I'll be grabbing a take away as this really isn't a place to "dine" as the service just isn't up to scratch. Being told that the pizzas only took 2 minutes by one staff member and then being told by another that there would be a wait was confusing. We ended up waiting over 45 minutes for some pizzas and while we were more than happy to drink wine and chat, it just didn't seem like they had it together. One pizza was delivered with a hole in the middle (a casualty of the oven) and we were told another would be sent to replace it. It never arrived and the half mangled one was still on the bill at the end. Luckily we're easy going people but I can see that this would really irk some customers. Needing to ask a few times for water, water glasses, napkins and plates and then being asked how many we'd like (umm, there's 8 of us?) made the lack of experience here very obvious. It's sad, because I like this place. I love their food, I like the relaxed vibe and the un-fussiness of eating a few good pizzas on big tables in what is essentially a shopping arcade. I really want to adopt this place, help them smooth out the kinks and see them succeed at being a kick-arse local pizza spot.

    We are currently doing a mini tour of all pizza places in our area and Portone is definitely the…read morebest I've had so far! Thin, italian style bases, high quality ingredients and a mix of traditional and creative, unusual toppings these pizzas are a winner. We had a bufalina margarita and a zucca (leeks, pumpkin and feta). Both, despite being too extremes, were excellent. Margarita had a gorgeous cheese, balanced carefully with the tomato sauce. I was dubious about the flavours on the zucca, but the leeks were soft and worked beautifully with the pumpkin and feta - the cheese again being the hero. At over $20 each the pizzas certainly aren't the most affordable but the quality makes it worth it. I could have taken them apart and eaten every ingredient on their own and still loved them! .
