    Our Filets were perfectly cooked. The meat was flavorful and tender. We started with the mussels and the tomato based broth they were cooked in was very good. Service was excellent. Great overall experience. We will return.

    My table had the Tuna Tartar and crab cakes for the appetizers… both were amazing. For our entrees we had the RibEye Steak, Scallops, and Short Rib. The steak and Scallops were also amazing! The Short Rib wasn’t bad, very tender, just missing something to take it over the top. Now the sides were the Mac and cheese with lobster and Broccolini and both were bland. The Mac n cheese was a little runny and the broccolini had 0 flavor. Our waitress was Amazing, all interactions with the staff was great! Oh we also had the “What She’s Having” cocktail so good that I had one to go too!

    Thanks for your review Dominique! Sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy the sides, but certainly glad you enjoyed everything else!

    The place is slipping. We have been there several dozen times over a span of maybe 6 years. Over the last 12 months it has gotten slower, ruder, and less enjoyable. The staff that has been hired lately seems entirely unapologetic about it. Sad to see a household staple in decline.

    We love Porters house. The food is amazing, and even our (older) kids love it. The steaks are delicious, the salmon, salads, potatoes, you name it! It’s also important to mention the vast drink selection, and how well of a job the bar does. We dine here fairly regularly, and it’s everyone’s birthday dinner request!
