Portico at del Lago Resort and Casino

My experience at this restaurant was like night and day between my visits in January and March. The first time I went, the burger, salad, and soup were all delicious and we enjoyed everything we ordered while sitting at the bar. However, on my most recent visit on March 9th, the food was disappointing. My salad was underdressed, the chicken marsala I ordered was not what was advertised on the menu, and even the butter was frozen. Despite the waitress offering to get me something else, I declined as I didn't want to wait any longer for my meal. I prefer the previous menu over the current one and although I will likely give the restaurant another try due to its proximity to the casino, I hope the food quality improves next time.

Unfortunately, I have to admit that this was the third disappointing visit in a row to this restaurant. We arrived at six and had a 7 o'clock show to attend, which we had informed the staff about. We placed our order for food and drinks right away, but our food only arrived five minutes before the show started. The steak was overcooked and poorly cut, while my friend's fish had numerous bones that she had to pick out as she ate. They initially allowed us to take our food to go, but then made us throw it out before we entered the concert venue. We had no intention of eating it inside anyway, as it was not worth the money. It was a frustrating and wasteful experience.

We had a lovely evening at Portico! The service was outstanding and the food was excellent. The only issue was our meals weren't that hot when they arrived at the table. We hope to try it again another time!

Did not like that everything had to be ordered separately.

The waitress was wonderful - very kind and attentive. However, our food was not served hot, but rather at room temperature. I was disappointed considering the price we paid.
