About Portofino Restaurant

A comienzos de los años 20, los abuelos de Renato Airola llegaron desde Portofino, Italia, al puerto de Valparaíso, trayendo consigo su pasión por la buena cocina. Décadas después, en 1998, Renato transformó la antigua casa familiar en un lugar único frente al mar: Portofino Restaurant.

Hoy, ese legado vive en cada plato: cocina italiana y mediterránea de alta calidad, una atención cálida y una vista privilegiada a la bahía que convierte cada visita en una experiencia inolvidable.

In Chile lunch is the main meal of the day, roughly from 13:00 to 15:00, once (afternoon tea) comes between 17:00 and 19:00 and dinner rarely starts before 20:30, busiest at weekends. At lunchtime many places serve a menú del día (set lunch), the bill shows a suggested 10% tip that is voluntary, and in the cities almost everything can be ordered for delivery through PedidosYa, Uber Eats or Rappi.

Photos don't do this place justice. Went here on a foggy day so unfortunately couldn't enjoy the view but that didn't matter at all. Service, food variety and menu was all exceptional. Our waiter and all the staff were soooo lovely. It was the best food we had in Chile to date. The arroz marisco was AMAZING. As was the pulpo which was a generous portion and so fresh and zesty. I seriously can't stress how good the food was. It was difficult to choose from the menu because there were soooo many good options. Do yourself a favour and try this out.

Excellent place for a romantic dinner or a celebration. Good service, fresh seafood and gourmet dishes. Great view of Valparaíso bay from the terrace.

Restaurant with beautiful interiors and views. The service and the staff was very good and courteous. Some of the food we ordered was notable and delicious. The buratta with kimchi was certainly only of them, the cherries in it, yum! The sauce for the sweet potato pasta with capers and pears etc was delectable. In all instances the pasta was very al dente and almost felt close to raw. One of the other pastas we ordered was very salty. The dessert plate we tried had a lot of hits / flan, gelato, pistachio cake etc! Really enjoyed it!

Portofino stands out for its stunning ocean views and delicious options. The menu features high-quality seafood and meats, including a tender Wagyu steak that’s cooked to perfection—definitely a highlight. Their wine list is extensive, with excellent Chilean reds that pair beautifully with the meal. Service is attentive, and while prices are premium, the experience is worth it specially for us visiting from out of town.

This place is the gem of the Chilean coast! Excellent Italian food with a mix of Chilean influence. The views are spectacular from most any seat. However, getting on the outside railing is worth it! Very romantic!
