    Server was great! Seated in bar so very loud and crowded. Another couple stood at our high top 3/4 of the time and all we could hear was their conversation. Food was good but slowly came out. Waited 30 minutes after app for salad, then another 20 for main course. Server was great but also very busy at waiting other tables and bar, etc. Restaurant week but probably won't go back during a busy event like this. I think they overbooked. One date night for anniversary and only get out 1-2 times every 3 months. Wasn't what we had hoped.

    I took my wife to The Porter's House as a surprise reservation for our anniversary. They had a handwritten card waiting for us upon our arrival and provided champagne and even dessert. We definitely weren't expecting it, and it was a very nice, and greatly appreciated touch for the occasion. As for the food, it was fantastic, and that's not hyperbole. It was actually, legitimately fantastic. I always order my steak blue rare, and I can count on one hand the number of restaurants (both higher-end and chain) that get it right. The Porter's House is one of those places. Our waiter was extremely attentive without being overbearing and paced the meal out appropriately. Although expensive, The Porter's House is worth it.

    First time dining at the Porters House and it did not disappoint - excellent food and drinks! Everything from the appetizers to the drinks was outstanding. They know how to cook a proper medium rare steak perfectly. Our server (“Nelson”) was friendly and took great care of us the entire evening. Did I say everything was perfect? Definitely returning!

    We dined here for Queens Feast Week and ate off that menu. The 8oz steak, while cooked the temperatures we like it, wasn’t seasoned well. The airline chicken was very much liked by our son. I probably would not go back, it was just average.
