" A lovely date night at Porcelli's! The atmosphere is cozy and romantic, making it a perfect place for couples. I had the gorgonzola gnocchi which, while tasty, was a bit heavier than expected. My partner enjoyed the chicken piccata, which was simply divine. We shared a dessert of tiramisu that was light and fluffy. I do wish the portions were slightly larger for the price paid, but overall a very nice experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic restaurant! My girlfriend and I went there for dinner and we were not disappointed. The homemade pasta stole the show with its rich flavor. We ordered the daily special, which was a seafood pasta dish, it was outstanding. The ambiance made us feel like we were dining in Italy, and our waiter was attentive without being overbearing. Perfect dining experience for anyone visiting Bar Harbor! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, I was a bit let down by my visit to Porcelli's. While the atmosphere was lovely and the staff were polite, the food did not live up to the hype I had heard. My ravioli had a nice filling, but the sauce felt a bit canned. I also noticed that the portion sizes could be larger for the price. I do appreciate the effort in the service, but overall, it wasn’t the best meal I’ve had. Maybe I just came on an off night. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the pleasure of dining at Porcelli's last night and wow, what an unforgettable experience! The ambiance was inviting and romantic, perfect for a special occasion. I ordered the osso buco and it was impeccably cooked, falling off the bone with a rich, savory sauce. My partner had the gnocchi, which was also handmade and delicious. The service provided by our waiter was top-notch, making sure we had everything we needed without being intrusive. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for true Italian comfort food. " (*Curated Review*)

" The experience was nice, but a little lackluster. The ambiance was pleasant, though I found the menu to be somewhat limited. I tried the gnocchi and it was quite good but not life-changing. If you're in the area, it's worth stopping by, but I might not go out of my way to return. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a delightful anniversary dinner at Porcelli's. The staff were attentive, and the ambiance was perfect for our celebration. I loved the wild mushroom risotto, each ingredient stood out wonderfully. My husband had the pappardelle, which he devoured. We shared a delectable dessert – the tiramisu was the perfect ending. Would love to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" The chicken piccata was divine! The sauce was flavorful and paired excellently with the accompanying sides. However, I found that the portion was slightly less than I’d prefer for the price. Service was good but felt a bit rushed towards the end. Overall, I had a pleasant experience at Porcelli’s but think there’s room to improve on portion sizes. " (*Curated Review*)
