Other Details:

Portofino’s story is one of family, friends, and love of food. It starts with two very young men, Giosue (Josh) and Luigi (Gino), who were childhood friends in Naples, Italy. They immigrated to the United States when they were very young; Josh to the north, and Gino to the south. Josh went to New Jersey to work for his older brother, Valentino, who had opened a restaurant there. Gino went to Winston-Salem, NC to work with his cousin. When Gino’s and Josh’s paths crossed again, they both saw an opportunity to work together. This joint venture was the birth of Portofino's Ristorante Italiano e Pizzeria; the two friends opened their flagship restaurant on Eastway Drive in Charlotte, NC in July 1996.
