Al Porto Ristorante

Celebrating all the romance, opulence and flavours of Italy, Al Porto Ristorante has been serving Gastown for over 40 years!

Like a contemporary Roman paradise, this restaurant is as impressive as it is beautiful. Their grand dining room boasts stylish slate tiles, enormous bay windows, crisp white linen and intimate table lamps that afford this restaurant a lowkey, intimate vibe.

The menu focuses on the delicious offerings from central Italy. Pizza doesn't get much better than their diverse selection that serves up classic toppings on top of house-made dough. Pasta doesn't get much fresher than their range of spaghettis, gnocchis and risottos, all of which are available gluten free. And meat doesn't get much better than their delicately prepared veal, juicy steaks and tender chicken plates.

Did we forget the seafood? Pardon us, for it is the star of the show! Indulge in anything from wild BC salmon, king crab and if you're feeling really decadent, the lobster tail with a mesmerising beurre blanc and sweet pea risotto. See it home with a bottle from their constantly rotating collection of international wines!
