Delicious Seafood
Our oysters are so wonderful – they actually inspired us to open an Oyster Bar in Bath! Come and enjoy them for yourself and join our fan club! We receive deliveries daily from the morning’s catch in Devon and Cornwall. Our aim is simple, to give you the freshest, most delicious seafood experience imaginable.

Whether it’s one-off specials from the day’s landings, or our gourmet twist on traditional English fish and chips with champagne batter that will take your fancy, our exceptional menu has something really special for everyone.

The influence from our Italian roots brings you wonderful pasta dishes and for something truly unique you must try our signature ‘Italian Sashimi platter’, prepared using The West Country’s finest raw fish and seafood.​

    I just typed a huge long review and have lost it so suffice it to say that we had a lovely time at the Portofino restaurant in Bath with great food and service the environment was beautiful. We will be going back as we live locally.

    Could not fault the service! The team were attentive, friendly and made us feel like we were the only ones there. The food was delicious and huge portions. We went on a quiet weekday evening, but it would have a bustling atmosphere if the place as full. Will definitely be back - mainly for the brilliant service. Thanks again

    The restaurant was very quiet but it was probably because it was a couple of days before Christmas. We ate from the Christmas menu which was good value as it also included a glass of Prosecco. Both of us throughly enjoyed our starters but neither of us enjoyed our main. The restaurant is very pretty and the staff are nice and helpful.
