    Porch is a vibrant, busy, young, loud restaurant. Our group of 4 are in late 40s and early 50s so we are obviously not the target for this place but we enjoyed our evening. The food was amazing - high quality and each dish was as beautiful as it was tasty. Our server Patrick was attentive and helpful, but he also let us have our evening. He gave us great recommendations and service but wasn't intrusive at all. The people watching was fun and entertaining, we laughed a lot and enjoyed our evening overall. Definitely a place to go see and be seen!

    We definitely have to book in advance because it’s very popular over the weekend. But our table was ready early before our reservation. Very nice smooth transition. All around the staff was amazing. Our waitress was incredible. Polite patient very informative. The food came out hot fresh and tasted amazing. It also came out very quickly. Restraunt volume is a little bit loud because of how busy it is, but still was able to enjoy pleasurable conversation at our table. Manager is exceptional and treated us with a little extra special care and attention with it being our anniversary. We’ve gone to the porch for lunch now for dinner and we’ve been told it has brunch. I can only say hats off and a bow to everyone from the kitchen staff all the way out to the restaurant staff top to bottom. Five stars.

    Food was ok, but barbarella/bridgette bar/ten foot Henry much better. Service was very much lacking for cost. Zero attention to our table of 5
