For my review, everything is based on the service for New Years Eve. To start off the most important thing being the food, I got to try various dishes on the menu. I really enjoyed the pimento cheese beignets. They were almost like macaroni balls. There was a bacon aloi, but I would have appreciated a more substantial sauce. I ordered the steak frites for my entree. I enjoyed the cut of steak, it was a little on the tough side, but that can be expected for the dish. The fries were fine. I did order 3 additional sides. I had the potatoes au gratin, creamed spinach, and asparagus. They were all good. I would say in general the food was not as seasoned as I would have expected.
The service overall was fine, nothing amazing. I am glad I had made a reservation and was seated promptly upon arrival. It did take a very long time for everything due to the large amount of customers that night. I timed it at 1 hour from sitting down to getting our entrees. I did appreciate the rolls that were given but I was never offered anymore. One highlight was the water. My glass was always filled, which I appreciated. I also liked how my remaining food was boxed up for me.
Regarding the atmosphere, the restaurant itself is very nice, I liked the aesthetic of the restaurant. A little more light would have been nice to see better. Not to be too picky but the tablecloth on my table at least was way too big for the table and it was annoying as it always caught in my legs. Also, everyone in my party noticed that the knives given for the entree course were very dull. We were all struggling to cut our meat. They definitely need to sharpen them. Lastly, as other reviews have noted, the restaurant is very loud. It was hard to hear everyone at my table. The restaurant needs to examine the acoustics and add decorative sound panels to enhance the experience.
Looking at the whole picture, everything was good but not great. Again, I do understand that it was New Year’s Eve and a lot was going on. However, this is a fine restaurant. I do wish to return at a different time and I think the experience will match the reputation of the restaurant.

Atmosphere and service were top notch, drinks were excellent, and dessert was delicious. But the rest was very disappointing for the price. Both the Prime NY Strip steak and the Prime Ribeye steak were chewy. I have never had such chewy/tough prime steaks as these. At least they were cooked correctly (medium rare and medium), so it wasn’t an “overcooked” issue. The pimento cheese beignets were basically hush puppies filled with the cheese sauce from a box of Mac & cheese – the sauce was incredibly viscous and did not give pimento cheese vibes at all. The roasted fingerling potatoes were not crispy at all, and incredibly bland. And the asparagus were extremely woody, not tender at all. (They were all very thin, which means they came from older asparagus plants, because younger plants produce thicker and more tender asparagus.)
All in all, $$$ later, we made the most of our evening, but we both agreed that we would not be returning for anything except drinks and dessert in the future.

I was fortunate enough to attend a private gathering of six in the Whiskey room at The Porter House. The dining experience was like no other! Still on my mind, I had to write about it!.
The three course service was impeccable, with Rick being courteous and attentive to all of our needs. He didn’t miss a dish!
Starting with a variety of appetizers including crab cakes, sauteed shrimp and pimento cheese beignets, oohs and ahs followed with every bite. Chef Scott was remarkable in preparing our dishes. The filets, braised short ribs and all sides, including mac and cheese, creamed spinach, mashed potatoes and more, left us all savoring every bite. All though we were fully satisfied with our meals we opted in to have desserts too. The array of cheese, chocolate and carrot cakes, in addition to creme brulee, brownie ala mode and asst. fruit was truly the icing on top of this unforgettable meal. Valet service is also available!
Soon to return, I highly recommend this restaurant and chef Scott!

My wife and I had dinner here after our wedding. Our service was great and so was the food! Split the 36 OZ Porterhouse and Waygu Carpachio with my brother in-law, delicious! Thanks for a lovely meal on our wedding night.

We came as a group of 18 people, and we absolutely loved everything!The food was delicious, and the staff gave great recommendations for drinks. At our request, they arranged one big table instead of several smaller ones and even decorated it with fresh flowers. A special thanks to the manager,Tyler,who coordinated everything perfectly and made sure our evening went just the way we wanted. Highly recommend!

My boyfriend and I dined here last night for a fancy Valentine’s Day date. Overall, I would rate the restaurant a 3.5, with most of the points being knocked off for the service. We started with the crostini pimento cheese appetizer, which was three tiny pieces of bread with cheese on them for $10. Both my boyfriend and I agreed that for the price, it was not worth it. Especially since it was on the Valentine’s Day menu, it should be an even number so the couple could share it evenly. Next up, we when previewing the drink menu, I had a few questions about two drinks that sounded similar. I asked our server (a young male), if he could describe the flavor profile of each and differentiate, and he couldn’t. All he told me was that he named the Led Zeppelin drinks, and said which one was more popular. If you named the drink, why don’t you know the flavor profile? I was expecting much more out of the server with answering our questions and he fell shy. His overall service was dry and left a bad taste in my mouth. For a nice restaurant, I would expect a seasoned server who can spark up a great conversation, but he seemed very disinterested and did not meet my expectations. Anyway, the main entrees (surf and turf) were very good and met our expectations. If we do go back, I am hoping for a server who is interested in the well being of their tables. I also noticed the owner seems to only respond to “5-star” reviews, so I hope he will read this feedback.

My fiancé and I came here for Valentine’s Day, we had a reservation at 7PM. Service, top notch. Waters constantly filled, plates were cleared timely, and Edie was an absolute delight. She has a wonderful presence; attentive, informative, friendly, and very professional. We had the pimento crostini’s appetizer to start from their holiday menu, they were ok. We were not super impressed in the size and taste of the app. I then ordered the Alaskan halibut, he had the braised short rib, and we both loved those. We also ordered the mac & cheese (delicious) and the asparagus (little over cooked and hard to chew) sides. Finished with the fantastic carrot cake – amazing. Overall, we will be back. The entire staff works as a team to consistently make sure you are taken care of, and I love that. The ambiance was on point, and it made for a beautiful, romantic Valentine’s Day evening.

We just had a party in the private dining space and it was amazing. The service was the best I have encountered in a long time. As the host, the staff checked on me multiple times to make sure everything was running smoothly. Tyler and Eddie took lead to ensure the night was a success. The food was great and service was superb. My guests keep commenting on how good the service and food were. They were extremely accommodating to letting us setup and get everything ready for our event. Thank you Porter’s House for helping make our party a great success!

Jessica with Offline – The Porter’s House was impeccable from start to finish. The tuna tartare was tender and fresh, the salads were crisp and flavorful, and the steaks were perfectly cooked and incredibly tender. Even during Restaurant Week with a fixed menu, the staff was happy to accommodate substitutions, which was greatly appreciated. The chocolate cheesecake was light, soft, and delicious! We had an excellent ending to a fantastic dining experience.

We had a magical experience and wanted to say biggest THANK YOU to everyone involved. My in-laws were visiting us for the first time here in US all the way from Russia. Today was my father-in-law birthday, and Porter House made our experience so special, so warm and welcoming! Firstly, they seated us very conveniently with the kids in the small separate room, which was perfect for our family; secondly, we were greeted with the special birthday card, translated to Russian for the birthday man. Thirdly, the service was absolutely first class, caring, attentive and very classy. Our waiter – I am so sorry that I forgot your name, but he deserves separate appreciation! He made our evening absolutely the best and payed attention to even our youngest guests (thank you again for extra pineapple!). He gave us wonderful recommendations for every person’s taste, and the food was absolutely what you could expect from the quality steak house. Serving for starters and entrees was very elegant and combination of tastes transforms to a perfect harmony. Again – we have only the best impression, I want to thank again everyone who helped us make this evening so memorable for our visitors! And we definitely would come back there for any other evening, their cocktail list deserves separate visit as well as many other items in the menu!
