Inspired by Italy’s aperitivo hour, when public squares and streets are filled with lively conversation, Portico serves handmade and authentic Italian fare in Sebastopol in western Sonoma County.

A portico is a colonnade or covered walkway in classical architecture. Since the middle ages the elegant porticos of Bologna, Italy have a meeting place for the public as well as a place for business. Paolo Pedrinazzi (who is from Bologna) and Kat Escamilla, owners of the new Portico trattoria , bring this experience to Sebastopol. They even have monthly Regional dinner parties with live jazz.

The setting includes an Italian fountain on their cozy patio. Portico offers light table service and counter ordering. Excellent Italian wines are sold in the restaurant at retail pricing; refreshingly unpretentious. The menu features an array of antipasti, handmade egg pasta, gluten free risottos, Bolognese lasagna, tiramisu, and baked goods . A market in the front is stocked with take-n-bake entrees

    This was my mother in laws third time eating at Portico on this visit! She absolutely loves it (and so do we!). Last night we had Burrata to start and a beer chèvre salad. They comped us some extra bread and olive oil/balsamic for dipping and we didn’t even ask. (grandma is now a frequent flyer so that may help lol!). Entrees were outstanding as my daughter and I split a Margueritta pizza and vegetarian Lasagna. My wife got the eggplant parmigiana and split that with her mom along with gnocchis which are to die for. My other daughter got vegetable risotto and her boyfriend was with us and he got the cream and saffron with pannicetta (he’s the only meat eater among us). What a great meal and we will definitely be back!

    We had another stellar meal at Portico. It's one of our favorites. We are greeted warmly on arrival, seating promptly and then await a superlative meal. We started with the Vegetarian Antipasto with luscious crostini with mozzarella and sun dried tomatoes, vegetables and a fennel, orange and olive salad. We always have to have the light, fresh simply gorgeous arugula salad. It does not disappoint. We ordered the classic lasagne bolognese (superbly thin pasta, elegant meat sauce), Tortelloni with a squash stuffing, topped with sage butter (excellent) and the always perfect eggplant parmesan. We were sad to report we could not order a dessert, the chocolate cake in the case was beautiful, the tiramisu is always tempting, but we could not manage another bite last night. Excellent food, nice staff, we love it!

    The food is amazing with all kinds of wonderful flavors. The wine menu is priced just right. The owners are great to chat with as well as the other patrons. Certainly a home town atmosphere with elevated food and wine. A great choice in Sebastopol.
