"I’ve been a Porta Bella fan for years. Not sure I will go back anytime soon. 140 bucks (incl 15% tip) didn’t give me a price/value worm and fuzzy feeling. 3 people had cheese bread, small pitcher of Sangria, Porta salads, scallops pasta, fettuccine Alfredo with chicken, and pasta with vodka sauce. All the food was good. Specifically, the scallops were very tender (difficult to do), the sangria was definitely good for 2 people, but the chicken in the fettuccine was soggy.

I have been going to this restaurant since the 70's and I'm so glad it is still there. This trip we introduced some friends to this wonderful restaurant. Parking: There is public parking garage right across the street.

My review is not much different from others recently. This was our go-to date night a few times a year and this time the service and atmosphere was so poor and slow it was hard to enjoy the evening. The food was fine, but like others have said, I don 't need to drop $100 for 2 plates of pasta. So sad to see this Madison establishment has fallen so far. Disappointing.
