Wow, what an amazing dining experience! This restaurant is worthy of a detour. Every dish was delicious and perfectly seasoned. Excellent service. Good wine list. We would eat there again in a heartbeat.

Came into town for a job test drive, and I researched this gem in advance. Had dinner at another restaurant that closed earlier on my first night and stopped by for wine and dessert, which were perfect. The next day, I went back for lunch and had the Yard Egg salad and mushroom marsala soup, both of which were quite nice. Tyler will take care of you at the bar! A must visit!

Casual fine dining with an at home feel. This upscale Italian restaurant never fails to deliver. The drinks are fantastic, and the food is always on point! Check them out if you’re in the area.

Beautiful little Italian restaurant in downtown Covington. The staff was warm and helpful. The food was really good and very fresh. The Tuna was awesome with a nice sweet and spicy kick. The pasta was clearly freshly made. Only had one cocktail, but it was very good. The prices are also very fair. I will certainly come back next time I am in town

We had a delightful and leisurely Saturday lunch, starting with cocktails made to perfection, in a quiet but upscale atmosphere with superior service throughout the culinary experience. The lemon lavender martini was totally refreshing, as was my husband’s Negroni and both well matched for a summer afternoon. We shared the Fritti Misti which had shrimp, parrot fish, jalapeños, and other veggies. We also shared the Foie Gras – a much smaller portion but very rich with a lovely presentation.The Mussels Linguini and Shrimp Risotto were both prepared to perfection and very fresh. A White Alto Adige and a Primitivo from Puglia paired very well. Portions are more than generous and there was no room for dessert. This will require a trip back. Del Porto is consistent in quality, selection, drinks and mixology, as well as service that is friendly and goes above and beyond. Raymond was exceptional!

Ordered the bean and artichoke dip and the mushroom risotto for to go lunch. Service was extremely nice and efficient. They offered extra bread, which we accepted. Packaging was nice and well done. No leaks. Wished we had gotten 2 pieces of silverware, but not the biggest deal. The olive oil was not the best. Very peppery and I wondered if it was rancid. The risotto was ok, wouldn’t get again. The flavor of the dish lacked complexity. The bean dip was the star of the meal. Although, the giant capers were weird.
