Porto Osteria - North Saanich

Outstanding! We found out about this restaurant through friends and so far has not disappointed. Due to Covid we are not dining in so have only had their take away and every time our meals are fabulous. Large portions and very tasty, Hubby said it was the best caesar salad he has ever had! I highly recommend trying them out especially when they offer a set dining event, great value and an opportunity to try several items on their menu!

We couldn't have been happier with our choice to visit Porto Osteria. We had issues finding somewhere close enough to the ferry but also with a decent food and drink offering. We stumbled on Porto by zooming in on Google Maps. From the moment we arrived we were treated with the greatest service and friendliness. Michael and Jennifer made a great team, knowing we were running behind and not trying to miss the ferry. Yet the food was still perfect, despite the tight timelines. You could taste the bounce and pep in the fresh home cooked pasta. The fresh cut cheese really brought out the aroma in the carbonara and the squid ink pasta and spot prawns stole the show. The mussels and clams were also fresh. We also had a tamponade antipasto and it was also just right, not too salty not too bland. They also had some local beers (canned not draft). I will be back.

Hidden gem of Sydney the Island. Great date night spot ! Fresh made pasta and bread with genuine customer service. Tucked nicely back in Canoe Cove with water and marine views. Highly recommend!!

The best Lasgna I ever had! . We loved the Lasgna and we are coming back soon for the egg yolk pasta in this weekend. Beautiful place to hangout and their desserts are awesome.

If you like Italian food and I mean the kind you get in Italy then this is your place. This is one of the best Italian restaurants I have eaten in. The words pillow soft and creamy discribes the best polenta I have ever had. The Tuscan Beef was rich and tender. And the Lemon Pasta well if you do not think of Sorrento I don't know what would. Can't wait to go back!
