This place is always crowded! One day I wanted to see what all the fuss was about (because I've heard so much about their cakes), but I didn't get a chance to try anything because the lines were so long. But the other day someone brought in a birthday cake from them and it was so delicious! Their wedding cake flavors sound really good.

We got lots of compliments on our cake! It was moist and tasty! Just the right sweetness. I just ate it (a week and a half later) and it's still really good! :D

Lourdes helped us from beginning to end and she was wonderful! Patient and attentive to the details. We changed our cake about 5 times and she redrew the cake each time for us with just as much detail. The baker created exactly what we wanted!

Only thing is delivery time was supposed to be 5pm, but they came at 4pm. Luckily, our florist came early and had the cake table almost done. When I asked the delivery guy if he could wait 10 min so the florist could finish the cake table, he flat out said no. That would be my only complaint because if my florist didn't happen to start an hour earlier than scheduled, the cake table would not have been set up yet.

Portos did a great job with our cake. We had a different flavor for each layer and a simple design that our florist Kerim just added fresh flowers to and it was gorgeous. The guests loved the cake and so did we.

I was a little worried about getting our cake from Porto's, because other people had warned me that they weren't very stylish and didn't have creative flavors like a lot of the other cake makers do. Still, G. was very insistent that we get our cake from Porto's so we could be sure it would taste good, so I agreed.

We got the Cuban cake (yellow cake dipped in rum) filled with Bavarian cream and frosted with Italian meringue. I gave them a picture of a cake that had caught my eye and asked them to duplicate it as best they could.

Not only did the duplicate it, they improved on it! They did a very artistic version of woodgrain and then carefully "burned" it with a blowtorch to darken it.

And it was delish, too -- my husband's nephew (who normally doesn't like cake) admitted to eating two pieces at the wedding and taking seven pieces home. We were lucky to get a slice of our own cake to take back to the hotel.

Our cake was a finger licking Tiramasu!! Our guests loved it and took all left overs home!! We have gone to Porto's for all of our occasions before our wedding and so it was only natural to go to them for the most important day of our lives.

Our wedding cake was so tasty and looked beautiful! Portoâs is a family favorite, so we knew we wanted to have our wedding cake from them. The customer service was great from the time we walked in for the cake tasting âtil the end. We did our planning long-distance, so it was great that they were able to work through some last-minute design and flavor changes by phone.

All our guests loved our cake! Not only was it delicious, it was exactly what we envisioned and ordering it was very easy. We had our florist put the finishing decorations so it was perfect. We had a strawberry layer, mango layer, and cuban cake layer.

Our wedding cake was as delicious as every cake we have ever ordered from Porto's - and that's a lot of cakes! We selected the mocha cake with vanilla custard, and the black magic cake with raspberry compote. Guests made positive comments about both flavors. I had a custom topper and ribbon which I dropped off a few weeks in advance. Everything was prepared exactly according to our instructions. We also rented a silver plateau from them, which was priced 2/3 less than the same plateau from a popular local party rental company. I cannot imagine wasting money at another bakery when Porto's has such fantastic cakes at fantastic prices.

I really love their cake, I got chocolate raspberry and the carrot cake, everyone at the wedding loved the cake and I knew that once they took a bite into it, they were going to love it even more.

Lulu was really nice and understanding of my needs. You have to check them out.

I'm a huge fan of their cakes so I knew from the early stages of wedding planning that Porto's is doing my cake! The cake arrived on time and although it wasn't as moist as I had remembered, we still think it's one of the best (and affordable) cakes out there.
