After ordering one of my favorite dishes, eggs Benedict, I was sufficiently impressed with the hollandaise, as well as the perfection of the poached eggs and the quality of the ham! The biscuit was also incredible, maybe the best I've eaten outside of the Southeastern United States! The hash browns weren't browned, still in a slimy state and not my personal preference. But the quality was obvious. The servers aren't very attentive, leaving water glasses empty and taking significant time to bring the check or any takeout boxes. That cost Ivory Brunch one star. But the food is outstanding!

Out in Roswell where the stories lean extraterrestrial and expectations can get a little... out…read morethere you find yourself at Portofino Italian Restaurant, chasing something far more grounded: a proper Italian meal. And this place delivers with a quiet kind of confidence. The pizza? A well-balanced composition crust with just the right snap, sauce that doesn't overreach, and toppings that know their role. The pasta leans into comfort, rich without being overbearing, the kind of dish that doesn't need reinvention to win you over. It's familiar but executed with care. Inside, the space is clean, composed, and inviting. Nothing flashy, nothing forced just a setting that lets the food do the talking. Service follows that same rhythm: attentive, smooth, and effortless. In a town known for the unusual, this is a reminder that sometimes the best experiences are the ones that don't try too hard. A solid pick. A refined pause. And when you're in Roswell, that's more than enough.

I wanted so badly to love Portofino Italian Restaurant in Roswell, NM, but it fell short for me for…read morefour main reasons. My oldest daughter and I were quickly seated on April 16, 2026, for lunch before her doctor's appointment. 1) the wait staff was short-handed and did NOT work efficiently. They took a long while to get requested items to us. 2) the food lacked flavor particularly with my eggplant parmigiana ($9.95 on lunch specials!). 3) the tea was exceedingly cloudy and did not taste good. 4) we were there for nearly an hour before our check was brought and did not get to try dessert! But this was an affordable restaurant that serves beer and wine. They offered excellent table bread - my daughter wouldn't stop pigging out on it. Lol. The lunch specials were a good deal. I liked their pasta e fagioli soup. Not my favorite since the pasta was so incredibly mushy, but still good. There are other places I want to dine at before trying this place out again, but I will return someday.

HAIR IN OUR FOOD As a Yelp Elite Member, I take my reviews…read moreseriously and always aim to be fair. I don't like giving bad reviews, but this experience left me disgusted and disappointed. The food was good, and everyone in our group enjoyed their meals. We even packed up leftovers to take home. But just as we were finishing, my grandson's mother noticed a thick, coarse hair on his plate. Finding a hair in food is always stomach-turning, but discovering it after I had already eaten made it worse. It made me wonder: What else did I miss? I showed the hair to our server, who immediately removed the plate--and to be fair, I could tell the hair wasn't from her. The issue was how management handled it: a 10% discount and zero real concern. No apology from a manager, no real effort to make it right--just a small discount and moving on. That response left a bad taste in my mouth. Had it not been for the hair, I would have rated this place 4 stars. The restaurant was clean, the atmosphere was casual, and the food was enjoyable. But the way this was handled knocked my rating down to 2 stars. We were so put off that, even though our leftovers were packed and ready to go, we left them behind. I debated between 1 and 2 stars but settled on 2 because the food itself was good. That said, this experience made it impossible to recommend this place.

Restaurant is located in an old Burger King which is a great use of an empty building. The restaurant is clean and well maintained. We were told to pick our seat and were attended to promptly. While looking around, it appeared that locals dine here. We ordered breakfast and lunch. Foodie number two ordered the Breakfast Tacos plate (egg, potato, and bacon on flour tortillas). Also, we ordered two Gorditas (1- tripas and 1-shredded beef). We washed it down with Mexican Coke Cola (made with real sugar NOT corn syrup). Our food was served hot and fresh. As always, we encourage you to stop by Taqueria Jalisco to give it a try for yourself.

They have an authentic atmosphere, staff are super friendly and the food is fantastic…read more Visiting Roswell NM (yes, this is THAT Roswell!) to check out a college w the daughter and we stopped in for lunch. There is plenty of parking right next the building with easy in and out. Also plenty of table seating. You can sit where you like and there isn't a long wait for service. We tried a few different dishes - starting with the Garlic roasted chicken wings. These tasty little gems are cooked crisp without the use of batter or flour; which we love, and served piping hot with a fried garlic and scallion topping. This addition really ups the taste factor! I loved this! Next we had our choice of entrees - they DO have a lunch menu but you can also order anything on the menu. The daughter had her standby Orange chicken (not a Thai dish but if she sees it on the menu she's goin for it!), the hubs had his favorite Thai dish, green curry, and I had one of mine, mixed stir fry veggies w shrimp. I also added Bean sprouts to my dish. Now my hubs only comment was that his curry was a little thin, not with the thicker bodied curry gravy that we are used to and, it wasn't as spicy as he would have liked; even though we told them Thai Hot and to NOT hold back on the spice lol. The flavor tho was good he said. My veggies were perfectly spiced and flavored, especially once I added the fish sauce and fresh chilies. The veggies are super fresh, cooked just crisp tender with lots of deep flavor. My spice was also perfect. The gravy is flavorful and satisfying eaten with perfectly cooked jasmine rice. All entrees have a choice of white or fried rice too! I Do hafta say though? Their fried egg rolls were fabulous! Burn ur tongue piping hot which I LOVE, while lightly fried to a GOLDEN golden brown. I love Thai egg rolls!! And these were exceptional. We also ordered drunken fried rice with no meat as a table side. Not sure what the Drunken part was but it was still good. Lol. A little more oily than I'm used to in a fried rice but flavor wise it was great! If you find urself in Roswell and are craving Thai food I definitely recommend checking out Lemongrass Thai, when our daughter starts here at NMMI it will DEF be a standing repeat stop for us!!
