Porto Osteria - North Saanich

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!

In July we took two couples with us to try your restaurant. We all thoroughly enjoyed our food and experience. Very cute and cozy place with lovely staff. When the bill came we were all very concerned that we had paid $50 each person for a flight of new wines to taste. The wines were great but for $50 each we could have had a bottle each. This has soured our enthusiasm to return. A flight to us would be some small taster glasses of wine for $10-15 at most!!!! So sad to leave with that feeling of being taken advantage of. In future, I suggest you let customers know how exorbitant a flight of Italian wine is before serving it. Sharlene Shore

Wonderful establishment: great staff and excellent food. I accidentally booked my reservation on the wrong date; they found us a table and ensured us we could stay as long as we wanted (even though their reservations were completely booked for that evening). Definitely recommend getting dessert. Next time I plan to eat their lasagna: it looked fabulous!

Lovely little seaside restaurant! My husband and I went for lunch today and enjoyed fresh pasta with marinara sauce. It was simple and rustic, and the perfect texture. The coffee is great (roasted by local company Bows Arrows) and there was also a great selection of desserts. We will definitely be back as the dinner menu looked fantastic, and the service was wonderful.
