A little bit Night at the Roxbury Latin style, Portale's is a popular spot for late night salsa, merengue and disco for those who love to shake it. Definitely not a venue for the wallflower type, as it's not uncommon to see virtually everyone pack onto the dance floor and sing along with their regular entertainment, the coyly named Banana Band. If your idea of Latin spice extends simply to enjoying some cuisine, make sure to check out their attached restaurant which serves up Bolivian and Latin fusion fare in a Spanish-Mediterranean setting that's somewhat rustic romantic.
