Cuisine Italian

Authentic Italian food in Covington, Louisiana. Who would have guessed it? This great little restaurant on the corner of New Hampshire and Boston street is a little gem. From atmosphere to the food, it captures it all. My wife Tracy and I spent the summer in Italy and fell in love with the food. We cried when we had to come home but Del Porto was here for our rescue. You could take this restaurant and plant it in a little town in Italian and you wouldn’t know the difference. You will not find a better meal on the Northshore. If you are reading this article to make sure it is as good as you heard it was, then you need to stop right now and make a reservation. I am serious! This place fills up quickly and you will be very upset if you do not get to try………………… anything on the menu.  Yes, the entire menu is to die for! I can’t wait for the next time I eat at Del Porto because I want to try the next thing on the menu.

Take my advice, order every course. The Europeans have long diners with many courses. This is how Del Porto structures their menu. Just like in Italy have the Anti pasta, salad, 1st course, 2nd course and dessert. Order a bottle of a house recommended Italian wine and enjoy the ride. Believe me when the diner is over and you walk out the door, you will have forgotten you are in Covington.

This is one of my all time favorite restaurants and it is in my backyard.
