" I visited Porta Via after hearing so many positive reviews. I must say, they live up to the hype! My sandwich was excellent, filled with fresh ingredients, and their famous potato salad was superb! The combination makes this place a hit! I’ll be back for sure. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an awkward start with my visit when my sandwich took longer than expected, but the quality of the food made it worthwhile. The kobe roast beef sandwich was delicious and filled with various flavors. I sat outside, which was lovely—definitely a great spot if you’re looking for fresh Italian cuisine in Pasadena. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely lunch at Porta Via. The minestrone soup was delicious, filled with fresh veggies, and the sandwich was satisfying. My family always loves coming here for the atmosphere and the fresh Italian flavors. The staff are generally friendly, which adds to the experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for Porta Via after seeing so many great reviews. While it was nice, I found it to be overrated. My sandwich was good, but not exceptional. The atmosphere was pleasant, but I felt the prices were steep for what I got. I might try again if I'm in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" One of my friends recommended Porta Via, and I was not disappointed. I had their special meatball sandwich, and it was packed with flavor! The atmosphere is delightful and perfect for a warm day. Though they were busy, my order came out quickly. Will come back soon for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" My recent stop at Porta Via was a bit of a letdown compared to past visits. The food was still decent, but the service felt lacking—it took a while for someone to take my order and the staff seemed distracted. I hope it was just an off day because I love their food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Porta Via is my new favorite spot! Their creamy kale salad is incredibly tasty, and the bread they serve with the meals is fantastic. It's a bit on the pricey side, but I believe you get what you pay for in terms of quality. Every meal I've had has been well-balanced and filling. " (*Curated Review*)
