“As mother of the bride, I had a wonderful experience with the staff, in particular Rain at the Baleen Kitchen. He was responsive and very good at communicating what was to happen. The vendors recommended by Portofino were excellent . It was a small wedding (23) with immediate family and everyone had a great time. The venue, food and staff absolutely terrific!”
