The great folks at Portofino, a longtime Buckhead favorite located not far from the temporarily shuttered OK Cafe, are doing something awesome tonight. (Besides serving dinner, which is always terrific there).

They're donating 15 percent of tonight's proceeds to the staff at OK Cafe, which was damaged by fire recently, putting staff members out of work while repairs are made. A recent online fundraiser launched by area business folk also will support the temporarily idled OK staff members.

"From one Buckhead dining gem to another, Portofino wants to support OK Cafe during this time of need by donating 15 percent of proceeds from dinner service tomorrow night. This month, the restaurant celebrates 14 years on Paces Ferry Place and continues to bring modern Italian-American fare to Buckhead."
