    The only "complaint" I have is that the drinks are a little weak.

    This wasn’t one of our better visits to Porter Creek. The food was just average this time (bone in pork chop for both of us) and our daughter didn’t like her Mediterranean Salad. The service was average as well which isn’t normal for our visits there. Hopefully just a blip on the radar screen.

    We enjoyed our meal. Our server did not refill my water after I asked, so we had to ask the manager for assistance as we couldn't find the server. He forgot my friend's drink and then brought me the wrong dessert, but quickly corrected and left the first dessert for us to enjoy. I am not sure if he was overwhelmed or not paying close enough attention.

    My husband and I met friends for happy hour Monday, November 11 - Veteran's Day. It was a preplanned event so didn't think anything of the fact that it was Veteran's Day.. I'm a veteran along with one other at our table. For veterans, everything but liquor was on the house. I honestly had no idea. We all shared the Thai chili sausage and pineapple flatbread, chicken artichoke flatbread and wings. My husband thinks the wings are THE best. Our server was Elizabeth, who was awesome. We were finished by 6:00 pm and the place was PACKED. We frequent Porter Creek as our go to spot to meet friends. They have a great happy hour menu and the food NEVER disappoints. Thank you to Porter Creek for your generosity for Veteran's Day.
