A Warm Italian Welcome to Bluefield
Portabella brings authentic Italian cooking — and a few flavors you won't find anywhere else in town — to Bluefield, West Virginia. Every day we hand-stretch pizza dough, simmer our sauces, and plate generous portions meant to be shared.
Italian classics sit beside creative specialty pies, Mediterranean favorites, and Southern comfort bites — something for the whole family, whether it's a quick lunch, a relaxed dinner, or a celebration close to home.
Start with garlic knots or bruschetta, move on to a wood-fired Margherita or our signature Spicy Vodka pizza with hot honey, and finish with house-made tiramisu. We're open daily from 10 AM to 10 PM for lunch and dinner, and we cater events of every size — from office lunches to family celebrations.

Why Bluefield Chooses Portabella
Everything starts in the morning, hours before the first order. Pizza dough is mixed and hand-stretched in-house, marinara simmers slowly on the stove, and meatballs are rolled by hand — the way Italian kitchens have always done it. When you order a lasagna or a Tour of Italy plate, it's built from scratch components, not reheated portions.
The menu goes far beyond the classics. Alongside spaghetti & meatballs and fettuccine alfredo you'll find our signature specialty pizzas — the Pestoroni with pepperoni cups and hot honey, the Spicy Vodka pie, the Trio with three sauces on one crust — plus Mediterranean plates, wraps, wings, burgers, and a kids menu that comes with a drink. Picky eaters, big appetites, and adventurous palates all leave happy.
We're built for gatherings, too. Birthday dinners, post-game celebrations, church groups, office lunches — call ahead for a large table, or let us bring the food to you with party trays and pizza packs. And when it's just a busy weeknight, online pickup ordering means dinner is ready when you pull up on Princeton Avenue.
Bluefield has trusted its family tables to local kitchens for generations, and we take that seriously. Come see us downtown — read our story, browse the menu, and taste why our regulars keep coming back.
