The ingredients are fresh, the service is friendly and gregarious, the food is delicious and exceptional. I have enjoyed several different dishes on multiple occasions now and can say without question that this food is exceptional and rare outside Italy. Everything in this space is authentic, from the relatively short menu to the service it is a treat to have such an excellent meal for what amounts to a very good price. No question, in Frederick this is consistently the best Italian food served with care and pleasure. I have not had a single issue with anything over perhaps 6 dining experiences here. It is an absolute pleasure to enjoy a lovey glass of wine with the outstanding pasta dishes! If Fredrick needs anything, it is more small and outstanding restaurants like this where quality and value are in harmony.

The moment…read morewe stepped inside, it felt like walking into a neighborhood alimentari in Italy--cozy, welcoming, and filled with the aroma of good things being made with care. There are a few tables out front, but we were lucky enough to snag the single two‑seat table inside, which added to the charm. We shared the muffuletta, served on a soft hoagie roll and layered with Juliet's homemade tapenade. It was excellent--bright, briny, and beautifully balanced. You can tell everything here is crafted with intention. A wonderful stop for anyone who loves authentic Italian flavors and a genuinely inviting atmosphere. I'm already looking forward to going back.

A couple of minutes later - the same personable customer representative called me back and revealed that her manager had called the manufacturers of the product and she was able to answer my question with confidence. I was blown away by the incredible customer support at Olive & Basket. The staff went out of their way to make sure that my questions and concerns were heard and addressed and they did so with such genuine care.

I forgot the name of the seafood dish that I had bust it was perfectly served in a breadbowl and tasted like a fondue. The mix of small scallops, tiger shrimp, and fresh lump crab meat was to die for. The baked seafood rigatoni was also amazing. The sauce was perfect and creamy and the seafood was once again fresh. We will definitely be back.

This was my second time visiting Il Porto, and I'm really glad I decided to give it another try…read more The first time I came, I honestly wasn't impressed and didn't think I'd return. But after hearing good things, I figured it deserved a second chance -- and this time it delivered. I ordered an apple martini, which was really tasty, and the fettuccine Alfredo with added chicken and shrimp. The dish initially came out with just shrimp, but when I mentioned the missing chicken, they handled it kindly and quickly. They let me keep my pasta and brought out a nicely grilled piece of chicken topped with Alfredo sauce. It ended up being very flavorful and satisfying. My friend ordered a sausage pasta dish and thoroughly enjoyed it -- he said it was very tasty. He also had two smoked old fashioneds and really liked them. The restaurant was pretty empty when we arrived, but it still had a cozy atmosphere. The only downside was that staff members were having a very loud conversation in the dining area, playing music, and even watching something on a phone at one point. Since there weren't many customers yet, it stood out more. I'd suggest maybe keeping that to a back area or lowering the volume while guests are dining. Overall though, this visit changed my mind. I would absolutely go back.

Even my friend, who isn't really a pizza person, loved it. The wings are also a standout. We asked for them crispy and they actually got it right -- which a lot of places don't. The bourbon kick wings were really good. The only miss for us was the lemon pepper wings, which were a bit heavy on the seasoning. Every time I've had this pizza, it's been hard to wait -- my first visit, I didn't even make it home before digging in. Whether you're dining in or grabbing takeout, this spot is always a solid choice.

Then the rest of their flavors you can ask for and taste. I have to say my roommate and I spent about 45 min in there narrowing it down. There were two people working, a man and teenage girl, both were kind and knowledgeable. Gave me some recommendations. I could have been in there all day doing a tasting. I ended up getting the Galegea and the peach balsamic. They tasted good together. Figured they would be good to mix for a salad. They do ship. So if you find something you like and want to repurchase or try something new then you can order it. They even said if you wanted to email and get ideas for recipes that you can do that. I don't know about you but I always run out of ideas. I love a responsive business. It was clean friendly and warm inside the store. I would happily visit again to have the same experience. Another note they swap out from different regions through out the year so there are a couple of seasonal flavors. Right now it's the Strawberry Kiwi.
