Il Portico Ristorante - Italian restaurant in Burlington - 273 US-130, USA

We really enjoy eating here - the food is probably the best around! The mushroom risotto is to die for. I'm craving the lamb chops as I type this. The lobster bisque is delicious. Pretty much everything we've eaten here has been delicious! Can't wait to go back. Definitely will try to be there one of the nights they have live music, too!

Came in on Thursday for the Jazz and a nice dinner. Loved my experience! I was welcomed immediately when I walked in and the bartenders, waitress and servers have impeccable customer service. The food was delicious, and the ambiance added to the beautiful quaint look of the atmosphere. The jazz band was amazing and loved the singers who voluntarily lent their talents. It was a great time and such a nice vibe! I will be back!! 😊

Meals are tasty… lobster bisque! Fresh mozzarella appetizer a must if you like cheese I enjoy this place very much. Try it out if you want a nice romantic sit down dinner. As for table near fire place or windows in back for the view.

Overpriced, service was good, but owner asks everyone who orders a entree if they want soup or salad as if it's included with the entree it is NOT and it is wayyy over priced. Lobster bisque has no lobster meat in 3 bowls the table had. You can find much better places with better prices and food. Might be good for a event but not for regular meals.

First time here. We almost walked out when we walked in as the smell that hit us was like an old moldy building. We walked in to the one bar area and after seeing the interior I was intrigued and wanted to stay hoping the food was better than the initial impression. We were greeted by a very busy but friendly gentleman. We were seated in a beautiful dining room that had a real fire and the lighting was beautiful. The food came out hot and fairly fast. I had linguini with clams in white wine sauce, probably the best I've ever had. My wife had chicken picatta which she loved.

Me and my family went here and it was the best Italian food EVER! We went on a Saturday and there was a live band. Everyone was super nice and we had a great experience. I’ll definitely be back.

We went on a Monday Night! I had a taste for some Italian food. The service was great! I had fresh pasta with scallops, lobster, shrimp in a cognac sauce. It was amazing 🤩 I couldn’t eat it all. I was so full they gave a nice portion. THE LOBSTER BISQUE SOUP WAS EVERYTHING. I had a big bowl & almost finished it. I was so full, I couldn’t finish my dinner. He ordered penne vodka with chicken cutlets. He said that was great also. The sauce was wonderful. It was just what he wanted! I see that they have live entertainment Thursday-Sunday. Check them out. We will be back! PS I love Italian food!

For me to say the food was salty means something because I’m a salt-hound. When I told the bartender she said she’d pass it along to the chef. It was really dim at the bar so we asked for the lights to be turned up. The manager (chef) must’ve taken offense to our critique of his food because he told the bartender (who was excellent) that it was “ambiance” and wouldn’t turn them up. We were the only two sitting at the bar and couldn’t see our food! We won’t be going back. Manager
