Make your next private gathering one to remember. For gatherings of all sizes and events, Porto provides a range of private and semi-private locations. We’ve got four lovely spaces that you can make your own for your next event. Chef Jody Adams, a James Beard Award winner, closed her Harvard Square restaurant Rialto in 2016 after a remarkable 22-year tenure. Great food, in her opinion, no longer required a nice dining setting. She shifted her focus to the Boston eateries she co-founded with Eric Papachristos, Sean Griffing, and Jon Mendez. TRADE, a bustling restaurant on the Greenway in the financial area, has been shaking since 2011. And since its opening day in 2015, Saloniki, a fast-casual Greek restaurant in the Fenway, has had lines snaking out the door; its Cambridge branch, which is only a year old, is as popular. Finally, guests seeking a taste of Adams' famous Mediterranean meals without the white-tablecloth formality can visit Porto, a full-service restaurant next to Sak's Fifth Avenue that debuted a few months before Rialto shuttered. Adams says, "I never stand still." Adams is most proud of her work campaigning for children's welfare or combating hunger through her support of the Boston Food Bank, despite having a closet full of "best" trophies for her food and restaurants. Share our Strength honored her with the Humanitarian of the Year Award in 2010. She helps create and maintain the hospitality programs for Partners in Health institutions during her regular visits to Haiti. Adams may be at the top of her career right now, but another pinnacle might be right around the corner. In the fall of next year, a third Saloniki will debut in Harvard Square. She isn't standing still at all. In May of 2018, Adams will be admitted into the esteemed James Beard Foundation's "Who's Who" list.
