The Arboretum Portofino’s is our go-to spot for local, nearby pizza and Italian fare. The menu is what you’d expect at any Italian restaurant.

OUTSTANDING. So, Larry was my server and he was on point. I ordered the chicken piccata with capers, it was the best I’ve had in a minute. The place had people coming in for pickup pizzas, one of them told me the pizza were amazing. I’m pretty sure they are cause the chicken piccata with so tender and juicy, has the right amount of lemon and capers. Phenomenal, I say! Everyone was really nice and I looked a reck as it was another hot day. Hey thanks again Larry, and you were right about that chilled glass. I’ll definitely be back.

I always enjoy whatever pasta dish I choose. We regularly call in our order for pick-up and I know that they’re busy, but they rush and don’t listen, so I always have to repeat and then look at our salads. Even when telling them that someone is allergic to carrots, we often get carrots on our salads. Not only do they disregard our preference, it could be a safety issue as well.

I eat here regularly. The food is on point. The pizza is great. A few items seem expensive like the clams casino. The dinner bread is good too. Tonight I had a cheesesteak. It’s probably the best in Charlotte. My only gripe is the French fries. I would like to see good regular (no added coatings for crispness) fries.

7-11-23 was me and my sons first visit and we throughly enjoyed our pizza. He and I ordered a small pizza for each of us. When the pizzas showed up it was to our surprise Portofino’s idea of a small pizza and my idea are way two different things. What I received was a medium pizza in my mind but I was reassured it was a small. Well worth the visit.

The food was great. I had the shrimp and scallop with linguine special. The white wine reduction was delicious. My date had the puttanesca which was really good as well (I only had a bite). The presentation was great, and Michael, our server, was very attentive. It was an altogether wonderful meal. Definitely recommend.

Great pizza. I had the sausage pizza with mushrooms and banna peppers. They allow you to divide toppings per half pizza, which is a blessing. French fries are good and crisp.
