Nice clean restaurant. Waitress was friendly enough but not overly so.
Food was good but not great for price.
My wife’s white beans were tasty but only warm. Her fried pork chop was good but overcooked.
My half of a fried chicken was juicy and pieces large but no spice on coating.
Not very busy.
No worth coming back to.

The wait staff were very professional, courteous and attentive. Coming by often enough to be engaged without the detracting from our meal.
The turtle soup was the meatiest I’ve ever had! Perfectly seasoned and a generous amount of soup! The fried eggplant is a great appetizer. Lightly breaded with a wonderful thick red sauce. The catch of the day was red fish. Since it did not come with a sauce we asked for it to be served with the sauce that accompanies the fried soft shell crab I highly recommend anyone that orders Seafood from them to also add the sauce from the fried soft shell crab as a perfectly compliments the seafood and they typically do not serve a sauce with their fish.
The only reason for marking the atmosphere down it is very loud with just a few people . please install some sound deadening baffles so the people can enjoy themselves much more

Our waiter was great. The restaurant was super busy, but everything was served on time and quickly. Our burgers were very good. They weren’t the best burgers we’ve ever had, but we really enjoyed our meal and time there. Would go back for sure!

a lot of people had recommended this restaurant so we decided to check it out for lunch. Positives are the great service – we had great service but generally all around the service and attention to the older patrons was amazing.
we started off with the onion rings which were decent. we then got the small house, trout almandine, and the eggplant parmesan. the house salad was decent, the accompanying dressing was really good; the trout was big in size and had a good crust but the fish and flavor were bland, and accompanying were green beans and potatoes which tasted like breakfast potatoes; good portion size but a bit bland. the eggplant parm was decent but the flavoring was bland and the eggplants were smaller (there are other places who make the sauce better and bigger eggplants)
overall, great service with decent portion food but bland

I buy 20 blue crab dips at $19.95 ea per year for years now. Three weeks ago i bought 2 dip appertisers the dip bread was not well done as specified and the sm container of dip was one third full not three quarters to full like normal. In maybe a 5 ounce styrafoam container.
Today i take these two issues up with staff. They put me on hold and come back telling me they will guarantee well done dip bread but their hands are tied concerning the amount of dip given. They say management now requires many items to be weighed.
I tell them for 19.95 each you are pricing your appertiser dish to where 2 ounces of dip feels not worth it. In the past it was approximately four ounces of dip. It was enough dip for the approx 10 slices of fench bread given but with less dip your lucky to have enough for 6 breads.
I put order in for two crab dip today anyway. Bread was well done and both dips were 40% full if lucky. Odd observation today there were 40% more french bread slices per pack 17 slices each but only enough dip for seven breads each like last time. Crab meat is cheap in the stores now. Makes no sense.
I read 30 of your most recent reviews and in five of them im seeing this same dip being mentioned negatively for the same issues.
Wont be buying there again unless i see some sort of comment saying dip volume is being increased a bit.
Not going to buy those 5 gift certificates there next year for xmas gifts.

Great local Italian place. Brittany our server was knowledgeable and very friendly. The hot crab dip was the best. All of the food was fresh and delicious. We recommend this place for a great time. Also the poker machines paid out when we played.

Amazing… This place is very underrated! Porter & Luke’s has a very homely environment that welcomes everyone. It is a must try for seafood lovers, especially oysters and soft shell crabs fanatics! The Hot Blue Crab Dip is a must try! Excellent food excellent service… Will definitely be going back soon.

The food and service were 2nd to none. All the food was made of fresh ingredients, you can tell. All the servers showed New Orleans hospitality. We had a great experience and will be back. We had the hot crab dip, gumbo, chicken parm and the red velvet do Berge cake. All were phenomenal. I recommend anyone visiting to make a stop there.

We made reservations on the Open Table app and we were seated promptly at our arrival and greeted with a smile by a friendly host.
Our server arrived to our table almost immediately after we were seated and took our order and brought us waters.
The establishment appeared to be clean although the seating is slightly cramped and outside of the various frantically placed artwork the ambiance is quite bland.
Our food was made fresh to order and hot! The food was amazing!!! The friend chicken was crispy although not the most flavorful although the po boy was perfect!
This place may lack in aesthetics yet the food is superb!
Will definitely recommend and return.
