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.​

    We had an outstanding experience at Portofino. The oysters were excellent and our main course was superb.

    Oysters were excellent. The marinated crab salad was a little disappointing - some of the salad leaves were not very fresh. The Clam Vongole could have included some more clams but was tasty.

    Lovely service Lovely food, seafood was lovely. I had the carbonara with salmon and swordfish Portions were large. I even left some pasta which is unusual for me to leave a crumb of food on my plate. It was just a lovely little find. Would definitely return to try another dish. Thank you

    I had read so many good reviews about this restaurant & they were all correct. The food was gorgeous, the staff were really helpful & friendly. It was mine & my friend’s birthday & they came out with sparklers & sang happy birthday then gave us both a free scoop of ice cream each & after we had paid they even gave us both a glass of limoncello . Very thoughtful. Thank you for making our birthday special 😊
