What People Are Saying About Porcini's

In Short – With dishes from Italy, Greece, France and Morocco, Porcini's menu can truly be classified as "Mediterranean." There are more than 40 wines available by the bottle. The cozy dining area basks in the warm glow of a fireplace. Come summertime, patrons can enjoy their wild mushroom strudel, veal osso buco and shrimp pappardelle on the garden patio.

Great food and atmosphere
by lindos39 at Citysearch
I've been to Porcini's twice and enjoyed it both times. My favorite includes the squid fra diavolo for appetizer and the breads. Both times I was there the house wine special was fantastic. We enjoy the terrific romantic atmosphere, yet you can still see what you're eating!
My only hesitation is the food was a touch inconsistent. Both times I had the calamari fra diavolo and it wasn't consistent in texture between the two visits. Never had a bad meal there and all around terrific.

It's over-rated
by giligulu at Citysearch
I went there because of their high rating and came out disappointed. I couldn't even finish their signature risotto and their mussels were so salty! However, the waitress at the bar was really friendly. Service was prompt.
- Pros: Great service
- Cons: So-so food
