Maurizio Pellegrini and Mario Nunes, two foodies from Toronto, found their paradise in Vallarta and decided to open up a remarkable Italian restaurant back in 1989. Porto Bello is a fine-dining establishment that offers an elegant and romantic terrace with a pristine white setting, overlooking the picturesque Marina Vallarta and the beautiful mountains that surround the city.

Not only can you enjoy the stunning views on the terrace, but the contemporary-decorated salon with its soft lights also provides an excellent atmosphere for an unforgettable dining experience.

The menu at Porto Bello is extensive and features traditional Italian fare with homemade pasta and sauces that are created using family recipes. Their signature pasta dish is the mouth-watering Fusilli Porto Bello with artichokes, black olives, and basil. For lovers of veal, the Vitello Porto Bello in a white cream sauce is an absolute must-try.

It’s no surprise that Porto Bello is one of the top favorites in Puerto Vallarta. The restaurant has three different locations, including Porto Bello Pizza, so you can satisfy your cravings for authentic Italian cuisine wherever you are in the city. If you’re looking for an unforgettable dining experience that combines spectacular views, excellent service, and delicious food, Porto Bello is definitely worth a visit.
