About Portofino Pizza

Glen Huntly locals rely on Portofino Pizza for crisp, thin-crust rounds baked in a gas oven and plates of pillowy gnocchi. Regulars head straight for the Supreme pizza—stacked with classic toppings—or share garlic focaccia alongside hearty bowls of pasta. The dining room runs on old-school neighbourhood warmth, welcoming casual family dinners and BYO wine without a corkage fee. Cash in hand is essential here, straight out of the nearby tram stop.

  • Gas-Oven Pizza & Handmade Pasta: Thin bases with generous classic toppings like the Supreme, baked hot in a traditional gas oven.
  • BYO with Zero Corkage: Guests can bring their own wine to long family dinners with zero corkage fee charged at the table.
  • Cash-Only Tramline Fixture: A relaxed neighbourhood counter right off the Glen Huntly tram stop that operates on a cash-only setup.
