Met a friend for a leisurely brunch to catch up on our lives. Stayed for 3 hours and went through the line 3 times. Lol. Started with chicken empanadas and progressed to potato balls and then dessert with coffee. Dangerous, if you LOVE good food!! There's alot of it, and it's all fantastic. Had to take home some Cuban bread... More

I've come here multiple times on two trips, and will likely do the same next time I'm in the area. This trip, I had the omelette on croissant, tres leche and more of the potato balls. They were as good as I remember them.

4/27 Prior to going, I've never heard of or been to Porto's; therefore, I had no idea what I was expecting. When I walked into the cafe, the atmosphere and experience was incredible!! Porto's drives a lot of foot traffic in the morning/early afternoon, but the 15 min wait was well worth it! Porto's has everything to offer, and it's... More

I've had a number of cakes from Porto's (both in Burbank and Glendale). They have all been excellent. Good prices. Great cakes. Great service. Perfect! I called to order a birthday cake at 7pm for pickup at 6:30am the next day. It was ready and waiting. Excellent!

We stopped off at Porto's while wasting time for out Warner Brothers tour. It was anything other than a waste. We ordered tamales, empanadas, croquettes and a couple of sandwiches. Everything was perfect. Plus their prices were acceptable and reasonable.

Porto's is in the San Fernando Valley, Burbank, where there are more sound studios and stages on corners than CVS and Walgreen's drug dispensaries. Where a professional populace originating from every corner of the world mingles, works and lives. Dave ordered. He made sure we got potato balls, chicken empanadas, and cheese rolls. I ordered, we split, a Cubano sandwich,... More

If you have ever seen the movie Donnie Brasco, with Johnny Depp, or watched a Sopranos episode, you will understand what this mean. If not, this may l help. According to to Urban Dictionary, "fuhgeddaboudit" is defined as "The subject is unequivocally excellent; further thought and analysis are unnecessary." This is how I would describe Portos. Freaking Fuggeddaboudit! Initial description:... More
