The food was very good and the service was excellent. The Branzino was very good. They have a fair corkage fee.

What a place to experience. From the beautiful decor and vibe, to the amazing staff and the remarkably delicious cuisine. We were treated so special by Benny are waiter. The Mixto frito was light, well seasoned and melted in our mouths. Everyone was impressed by their meals. The lobster risotto was yummy. My friend absolutely loved her cacio e pepe and Benny's service of it made it even better! My other friend said her fish was perfectly prepared. To top it off the pistachio cake - yum yum yum . I'm hoping to go back with my hubby. Thanks for an amazing meal! read more

All I can say is WOW. Portosole is one of the best restaurants in Coral Gables. It is located on the corner of Valencia and Ponce de Leon. There is a parking garage one block over from the restaurant which is very convenient to park and walk over. The ambiance is that of a classic elegant Italian vibe. Today we went for lunch, but I have had lunch there a few times and dinner as well and it's consistently excellent. Their staff is on point. We received a warm greeting from their GM Ivan and our server, Alfredo, was a rockstar. He knew the menu perfectly, presented the specials and explained everything to us clearly. He was very attentive to anything we needed and very prompt responding with anything we asked for. We ordered the burrata with heirloom tomatoes appetizer which was super fresh and delicious. For the entree, we ordered the salmon with black rice. It's probably the best salmon I've ever had. One of my friends told them it was my birthday and they were kind enough to bring a tiramisu with a candle in it along with a little chocolate happy birthday sign. The tiramisu was absolutely delicious. I will definitely be back to enjoy Portosole again. Highly recommend!! read more

Very nice restaurant. My seafood pasta was good as was my friend's. It was a Saturday night dinner and we will definitely return.

This was an amazing experience. We loved everything. Came here with two friends and we shared two of their appetizer specials- deep fried artichokes and emported barrata. I ordered the seafood pasta and my friends each got the tuna steak. We shared the torta del giorno- best dessert! read more

Cute bar. I like the ambiance, and the decadent castelvetrano olives. I didn't have an entree but I'm assuming it's like all the Italian restaurants in the area, over priced and mid. Not really Italian, go to Italy for that. read more

Thank you Edgar, Benoit, Annabel and team for making my friend's birthday last night a very special evening. From the chic ambiance to 5 star service, everything was masterfully en pointe as always!!!! See you all again on Wednesday for dinner! read more

Portosole is outstanding upscale Italian restaurant in Coral Gables, with a large dining room and excellent service, and a nice varied menu. Four of us shared the crispy light calamari and the superb eggplant parmigiana - it may be one of the best eggplant dishes I have had in a long time. I asked our server what cheeses were in it because it had such a unique and wonderful taste, but he said only mozzarella and Parmesan. We all had pasta - all homemade and delicious - pasta with pesto, paste with clams, pasta with zucchini and meat-filled raviolis. And for dessert we split a creamy lemon tart and a sinfully good pistachio cake served with pistachio ice cream. If you like Italian food, Portosole should be on your list. A wonderful dinner. read more

It's not often in Miami that you become entranced with service at a restaurant, but that is exactly what happened at Portosole last night. I have been hearing and reading for years that this spot was one of the best Italian spots in the Gables but I had never made my way there. Last night I made a reservation for my dad and I and then proceeded to have one of the most fabulous meals I've had in a while. Located in the Gables on Ponce right off the Mile, Portosole is an authentic, fine-dining Italian restaurant. I'm talking white tablecloths that they steam after each reservation (saw them do this), bread service, wonderful menu explanations and frequent (yet not annoying) visits from who seems to be the maître d', Ivan. My dad ordered a dirty martini which looked excellent and I stuck with bubbly water. The offer bread service as well as a plate of charcuterie and olives to start. A+ We opted to split the baby artichoke salad to start which came with parm crisps and was refreshing, lemony and delightful. Then for dinner I ordered the Linguine alla vongole (clams). I saw you could add bottarga which is one of my favorite flavors and rarely on menus in Miami. If you haven't tried it, it's known as "golden caviar" because it is a way that preserve fish eggs to create salt-cured, air-dried roe from what I believe is mullet fish. Whatever fish it comes from, it adds a decadent salty flavor which I love. We also split the filet di branzino. The dinner came served tableside and they split both the fish and pasta dish into two separate plates for us. We finished the night with Tiramisu and Ivan brought us complimentary shots of Cremoncello. The food was so great that it will definitely have us coming back, but the service is what really impressed me. It had the heart of those old school places where everyone wants to know your name, your order and make you feel at home, but with the decor and service of a fine dining establishment. However nice the service was, it is not a place that is stuffy. The dining room was full of people you can tell come often, and the vibe is great. It is most definitely a good spot for dinner with the parentals, but a vibe for a nice date night or business dinner too. I wouldn't say that this is an inexpensive restaurant, but I also wouldn't say it is overpriced either. Entrees run from the $30-50, but are easily shareable. Unfortunately it has been my experience in Miami that sometimes restaurants like this can have an attitude if you don't order that many things or an entree per person so I was admittedly worried about my dad and I splitting three things and how they would react, but they treated us super well and it was a wonderful evening. Really enjoyed my experience here and cannot wait to return. The full bar is beautiful, so I definitely want to try and have a meal there in the future with a cocktail. Molto bene, Portosole! read more

This gem is absolutely amazing! All the food is made from scratch and with a menu so authentic I couldn't even pronounce the names of the dishes! We were a party of 8 and Ralphaela, our server, was phenomenal. My family and I were just walking down the street and came across it for lunch. Definitely a classy eatery with authentic, home made Italian cuisine worth every penny, because you will be dropping several. If you like good food with a mellow ambiance, Portosole is where it's at. Can't wait to go back. read more

Not that great , it's more fame than reality, food is good but not the greatest Italian food in town

Simply one of my favorite restaurants in Miami. The absolute best service, truly unmatched. Here they have a keen attention to detail and make sure you are taken care of throughout the entirety of your visit. Aside from the incredible service the food is just amazing, so fresh and delicious. i would give 6 stars if i could read more

I would put this in the negative category... If I could... I made reservations approximately a month ago. I had a confirmation email. Showed up at the allotted time last night and was met at the door by Jagger. He promptly and curtly told us that the place was rented out for a private party. I told him that I had not received any communication regarding this and he insisted that he texted me and tried to call me twice. But guess what... He had the wrong number! Interestingly, enough, my email Was obviously correct because I had the confirmation in front of me! And the class, intelligence and persistence was clearly not there to shoot me an email BUT... he did us a favor, as did the venue who handled the situation very very poorly. We walked around the corner to TULLIO!!!....ABSOLUTELY AMAZING FOOD AND SERVICE!!!!! 10 STARS ALL THE WAY read more

This was one of the best dinning experiences I have had in Miami in terms of service. The staff from the moment you walked in were so welcoming and attentive. The owner came by at the beginning of the meal to say hello so I was already excited to try the food. I was so happy they had a vegan appetizers which was fried artichoke hearts with lemon and a dipping sauce. It was delicious and for my main I was eating light so I had a the salad with beets. They also could have made another pasta dish for me as well. My friends ordered Ravioli Di Ossobuco allo Zafferano and the short rib ravioli all which were fantastic! The best part of the table-side lemon gelato dessert drink with Prosecco, vodka and topped off with coffee beans. They also made me a virgin drink. The only thing which would have made it better would be to have had another vegan main on the menu. But they said they would make whatever I wanted! Amazing restaurant read more

Portosole - The amazing end to a great meal. - Italian Near Me - Coral Gables, Florida

I'm so excited to find this lovely Italian restaurant & add it to my favorites list! From the minute I walked in the door , I was greeted with friendly smiles all around! The restaurant is light open, and airy. A perfect ambiance for wine tasting & lunch with friends! The food is so delicious here! There were a group of us dining , so we had many appetizers, including burrata with heirloom tomatoes, crispy artichokes, prosciutto and paired these with La Scolca gavi dei gavi wine. Delicious It was really fun when they approached our table with a giant Parmesan wheel and prepared the linguine tableside! It was so good , I cannot wait to go back for this ASAP! I also saw that they had linguine alka vongole, which I'm excited to bring my husband back to try, because that's his favorite Italian dish. We all shared the branzino Fish, which may have been the best tasting branzino I've ever had and I have it quite often, here in Miami! The veal Milanese was also delicious. I truly can't say enough about my experience at this restaurant. I can't believe I've lived here for eight years and have never dined here before.?! It is definitely the best Italian restaurant in Coral Gables and I will be back often! I highly recommend this restaurant all around for food, ambience and great service and wine selection! read more

We walked in an hour before closing, on a Tuesday as a last minute decision, and what a win. I have to compliment the staff on duty because they were so friendly and professional, we did not feel rushed at any moment. The food was outstanding and the wine recommendation on point, thank you so much Edgar- you rock! This is a fine dining establishment, so I would recommend to dress accordingly. Interestingly enough, we weren't since we decided to have pasta in the spur of the moment. Even so, the staff was so professional and respectful, it speaks volumes of the place. I would definitely be back for the food, but the winner here was hospitality. read more

I was invited to a private event here and I have to admit that everything was just perfect. From the eggplant parm to the grilled vegetables. They had great service and the place is very elegant and upscale. The bathrooms were spotless and the servers were all dressed like they mean business, and they did. Other plates that I tried were the caprese salad and the beautifully prepared cacio e pepe pasta. Portion sizes were just the right size. Loved the bar area here and I had a drink that was equally impressive. This spot has been quite a few other restaurants, but I feel that Portosole has it down pat. read more

It's a bit pricey but worth it for special occasions. Parking was a little hard but they have valet which is always convenient. read more

Always a bit nervous to eat out on Valentine's Day, but the four of us had a reservation at Portosole. We arrived smack on time, and charming hosts took us right to our table. None of this "please wait at the bar for a little while" nonsense. Portosole did Valentine's day the way a glamorous but sophisticated restaurand should do it. Soft candles all around, some "floating" candles on the bar, rose petals on the crips, white tableclothes, a rose for each lady, and the usual professional and impeccable service. It's one of the few restaurants where much of the food is prepared tableside, and it adds to the ambiance. Thanks to Ivan who keeps things humming, and has an eye for aesthetics and is guest-sensitive. A grown up night in a grown up restaurant. Bruce Rubin read more
