Porta Via Italian Foods

I’m new to the area and this is the first place coworker took me on my first day. I’ve been hooked to the salad and salmon ever since. So yummy!

The food was great but we were seated so close to others that we could hear everyone's conversation. Would appreciate it if we could have a little more space between parties, especially during a time where we're supposed to be socially distanced. I did appreciate that they were open late, compared to lots of other places. Our waiter was also super accommodating! Would visit again.

The food, wines, coffee, beverages, sweets and some Italian goodies are just so delicious, hey also the service is five stars, this Locals know that, if you are visiting Pasadena this is a must to visit, I have been attending this place almost every weekend since September 2019! The reason? I’m meeting with my tutor, the place is just perfect for eat and drink a good glass of wine, ah FREE PARKING as well!

This place is very quaint and airy. The eatery had open aired sitting. It's a casual dining experience, the price is a little high for the food they serve. Nothing stood out or had a wow factor. The have a wide selection of food, but the one that was recommended by lot of reviewers was the kobe roast beef sandwich, which you can make a combo by paying 11$. This meant that you can get a side salad or a soup of the day, I chose the salad. I was very disappointed with what I got. The sandwich was bland, and the bread tasted stale. After 3 bite, I decided I didn't want to waste anymore of my daily calorie allowance on it. So I started on my salad, which was very very disappointing as well, the mix green salad looks dirty as heck. It had the look of salad that was deteriorating because of the water that it came into contact with. So I spent most of my time picking out the gross looking greens, and really only ate the tomatoes. To make matter worse, I sat next to an employee who was on her break. The whole time she was cursing and retelling the story of her horrible date from the previous night. Half way through my meal, I decided to leave because I didn't want to hear anymore of her rants. It was very unprofessional. Why can't she have this convo somewhere else?
