"A sibling to the one in Jersey City, Porta offers a solid collection of salads, sides like meatballs and Italian sausage, and pizzas like the Spring Betty with goat cheese, spinach béchamel, spring onions, artichokes, and pecorino Romano. The bar is endless and the room has little to mute noise, so if the party-level volume is not your scene, there’s the outside area with plenty of picnic tables with room to spread out." - Celia Buckley, Melissa McCart
