“I love Italian food, we all do!” exclaims Portofino Parnell Restaurant manager Tony, and Parnell obviously loves it too. After 30 years serving up the best Italian fare Auckland has to offer, a renovation to the premises was the only thing missing from the busy restaurant.

Portofino in Parnell has stood the test of time and has been in Parnell so long.  Many locals use it as their second kitchen. It is a great mix of traditional Italian recipes and know how created with the best of local produce. Portofino knows they are always on the cutting edge of Italian cuisine with famous family franchise going from strength to strength.

Tony says the magic comes from being a family owned business where they cook together, eat together, laugh together and each collaborates to create a chain of restaurants that everyone loves.
