Portalia Pizzeria & Deli
Portalia Pizzeria & Deli is a family-run restaurant in Table View, serving wood-fired pizzas and Portuguese dishes. The kitchen makes thin-based pizzas with toppings like feta, cherry peppers, and chouriço sausage, alongside Portuguese specialties such as espetada — skewered rump steak rubbed with coarse salt and garlic. The dining room is small and casual, with a focus on straightforward, hearty food.
The same family has run the place for over fifteen years, cooking Italian recipes passed down through generations alongside Portuguese dishes. You can order gluten-free pizza bases or opt for thicker crusts, and the menu includes daily specials like chicken livers in peri-peri sauce or slow-cooked eisbein. The restaurant also hosts birthday parties and small gatherings in its compact space.
The wood-fired oven is the centerpiece, turning out pizzas with crisp edges and smoky notes. It’s the kind of place where regulars come for the espetada or a reliably good margherita, and where the owners still work the floor.
