I always enjoyed the entertainment in Don Vito's but never thought the food was much. On the other hand I was pleasantly surprised earlier this year when I sailed on the Navigator. The Portofino Grill was transformed on certain nights to an Italian restaurant with a number of excellent menu choices, antipasto bar, and strolling Italian guitarist. On other nights it was transformed into "A Taste of Italy" which was a traditional Northern Italian meal served family style, course after course. This was a set menu. The antipasto bar was also included on this evening and I found it quite good. During this a strolling guitarist entertained and during the evening the waiters lead a sing along and dance similar to Don Vito's on the Diamond. The food was much better than the Diamond though. Both evenings were exceptional in my opinion. With the addition of the some of the singers from the Diamond and Don Vito's this should make the perfect combination.
