    Porterhouse is always phenomenal across all areas. You pay for what you get, but it’s worth it.

    Party of 8 people on a Sunday evening. We had a reservation for 630. It wasn’t really busy and there were plenty of tables open. They made us wait to sit because our table wasn’t ready. Frustrating & embarrassing

    We have been before and the food is consistently amazing. The steaks have a perfectly salted char and are cooked to the requested temperature. While in the past, service was phenomenal, it fell short thos time. Perhaps our waitress was new? We were not offered bread service and she never returned to ask if we would like any sauces for our steaks. The salad she forgot to bring until halfway through the meal. When you are expected to tip $30 to your server, I expect a little better. We will still return as it remains one of the best steak options in the area and past service has been 5 stars.

    Within our party we had both Filets and Scallop dinners. All were excellent. Our server Evyn did a fantastic job. She was very friendly, funny and attentive! The manager, Brendan also came to the table to check on our dining experience. This was a nice touch. We highly recommend this restaurant! I’m

    Good food. Waitress couldn't have had less personality and lacked any friendliness. Dropped the final bill and walked away without saying a word.

    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!
