    We decided to dine here for the first time based on positive reviews. The location and restaurant itself is in a small strip mall. We were warmly greeted and seated promptly. We enjoyed seeing the great Italian-themed pictures and art on the walls and accompanying low-volume music playing to give us a touch of Italy. The Petrale Sole (Special of the Day) was superb, perfectly cooked, and the accompanying sauce and vegetables very pleasing to the palate. The Risotto with scallops, sun-dried tomatoes and artichokes (another Special of the Day) was excellent. The service was top notch and most appreciated was the attention to our stated food allergies. We were too full to experience their dessert, so we have to go back another time soon.

    This is one of our favorite local restaurants and our group of 8 really enjoyed our meal at Il Porcino. The restaurant isn't large, but they have a perfect spot for a group of 8-10. The staff was very friendly and attentive and the food was all delicious. They will happily split salads and make other changes or accommodations if asked.

    Loved this gem in the Fremont area. Authentic food, charming service, and really nice wine selection at reasonable prices. Mushroom w Gorgonzola appetizer was a standout, but it was all very good/great. House made tiramisu was excellent too.

    I really need to come here more often as it is a true gem in an otherwise less than stellar dining selection in Fremont. The food and the service are top notch. It is a small venue and so reservations are recommended. We dined for Valentine's dinner and between us we enjoyed the strawberry salad and lobster bisque soup, and a crab cake for starters, all of which were perfect. The steaks were tender and flavorful, cooked just right and I am rather particular so was quite impressed. Very nice wine selection, but I do wish they offered a cocktail menu. The topper for me was the chocolate raspberry cheescake. I normally prefer a very traditional and rich NY cheesecake, but this chocolate-infused variant was out of this world and I want to go back soon just so that I have enjoy that again. Il Porcino is a must to try in Fremont.

    Portions are small with a low amount of protein (95% pasta) for a pretty high price. Probably it’s okay here, but I have a different experience from another places.

    Very small and intimate, great place to meet friends for lunch or dinner. Service was great and the specials were mouth watering. Great wine selection. A little expensive but overall excellent.
