Diner Reviews
  • "There's something about the size of Porterhouse restaurant, the staff, and the ambiance that makes dining there an upbeat experience. It seems it would be very difficult for a person to remain in a bad mood when the staff is so positive, the food is so good and the setting is so pleasant."

  • "10 of us went for a group dinner and loved it. The food was spectacular, the service fun and efficient. Pricing is fair and the evening could not have been more perfect. Highly recommend you go here for that special evening or time out for adults."

  • "Food=Excellent Service=Excellent Ambience= Excellent Value= Very Good Only one challenge- out if stock on 2 separate wines ordered. Vendor issue, not the restaurant. So current wine list updating would have been helpful. That said- still will return--and often!"

  • "Porterhouse staff were all great, the food was fantastic! When I booked the reservation I asked for a specific table as this was the first spot I met my now husband at three years ago. They had the table ready and waiting . The staff treated us like royalty. We dine out a lot and I have no problem saying this is our favorite spot and yes I would recommend the porterhouse steak which was full flavored. A special thanks to the chef and our waitress Stephanie."

  • "The caveat, of course, is that's not saying much. A lesser Crave (i.e. MoA) would rare higher. Nevertheless, this us what fine dining is to the wannabes in Lakeville. These people at the Porterhouse couldn't even do a raw ribeye justice! Very sad. I maybe nitpicking... but if I'm paying prices akin to The Capital Grill out here in an outer ting suburb, I expect quality, knowledge and service commensurate with the price. No excuse for experienced restuarantuers like the group that runs Porterhouse Steakhoyses and Chianti Grill."

  • "The steak and salmon were wonderful. The lighting a little to low for us. Would be nice to be able to see what you are eating."

  • "We felt the food was only average and overpriced. You can get better food at better prices elsewhere. We had a reservation but still had to wait about 20 minutes past out time. We won't be going back anytime soon. We had Martini's which were decent but the server poured a second glass then took the shaker which still had some in it. Didn't appreciate that either."

  • "We wanted a nice spot for a just-the-two-of-us dinner and excellent food and we sure weren't disappointed. Friendly and considerate service coupled with great steaks and a substantial wine list. Excellent martinis, mixed tableside, which is a nice but rare event these days. In addition to the steaks, don't miss the appetizers, especially the outstanding Spinach, Artichoke and Parmesan Ramekin, served with a delicious baguette. Overall, a great night out. We will definitely be back."

  • "I had heard about the restaurant from someone at work and thought I would try it. I am not a big steak fan, but I can enjoy a good one. The carb cakes were excellent. The steak was good. The carrot cake was top notch. So yes, it was a very good outing. I would definitely visit again."

  • "Fabulous service, fabulous food, fabulous wine. One of the best dinners out in a long time. We will be back with friends!"

  • "Apparently making a reservation on open table picks a server for you. We did not like the table we had to sit at and later found out the reason we HAD to sit at that table is because our reservation stated we requested a server. We had never been to eat here before and know no one that works there so we sure didnt pick Jessica to be our server although she was great. Our table location sucked."

  • "I took my wife to this eatery to celebrate both our anniversary and valentines day. the atmosphere was really nice. we could see the fireplace, the lighting was just right, making us feel cozy. they had a special setup that was made for two. we had two filet mignon with two lobster tails and choice of potato or fresh asparagus. the wife had the greens salad, and i had the clam chowder. the wife was indifferent to salad, but loved the ranch dressing. my soup was hot and creamy. our steaks were prepared just right and were the best we have had. for dessert we had a dish of creme brulee which the wife just gushed over. and the topper for a valentines deal we also had two glasses of some decent champagne. the staff was did a great great job."

The food, champagne, atmosphere, and service were all excellent, and couldn't have been better. We will definitely be back, again and again!:-) Hats off to the entire staff for a most remarkable time!"

  • "but not this visit. We weren't given the table we requested even though I had reserved the spot over a month in advance. The table they did give us was uneven and caused the table to wobble. The waitress called the manager over and he was rude and dressed far to casually. His solution for this upscale restaurant, was to wad up some napkins and put it under one of the legs, and crawled under the table to do it....while we remained seated... The food was excellent and was prepared perfectly. If it wasn't for the attitude and service of the manager, the rating here would be far higher. His attitude was terrible, even when he came back later to check on the meal."

  • "This was the 2nd dining experience we have had at the Lakeville Porterhouse restaurant. Both times we have all order steak and seafood or fish. I have experienced many fine dining restaurants and Porterhouse gets it right( Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill doesn't hold a candle to Porterhouse)! If you order a steak done medium, medium well etc., its cooked to perfection. Amazing seafood! This will be our date night restaurant for a long time to come."

  • "Everything was fantastic. Prices are pretty good compared to other high end steak houses. Only problem was, we asked our server to give our bill to someone else, but she would not. Could not have been better."

  • "This is the second time our group has gone to Porterhouse in Lakeville. Unfortunately we have had 2 poor experiences with the steaks. On the first visit the majority of our group had the blackened rib eye. It was very tough and did not have the tenderness and moisture that rib eyes should have. On this last visit, we all switched and had the regular rib eye. Most had the smaller cut and a couple of us had the larger cut. Again the results were the same. It was definagely not over cooked as most of us ordered them medium. I have no idea what cut these really are but they are NOT rib eyes. There was no marbling and the texture was as tough as a well done steak is. Either these are not rib eye cuts or the quality is incredibly poor."

  • "We have visited this place 4 times and have had wonderful experiences everytime. The food is always amazing (try the bacon-wrapped bbq shrimp!) and our service has been terrific also. They take great care in making you feel welcome. They just know how to create a start-to-finish solid dining experience."

  • "They do all the little things right here, and it always amounts to BIG satisfaction! They have unequalled service and the food is the absolute best! All guests are treated with great respect and courtesy, and one is left feeling almost as if they were royalty or something. I can't recommend this establishment strongly enough - it never fails to please! Jack Jodell"

  • "We were there for my moms 60th birthday and my brother in laws b-day as well. The food was wonderful! Everyone had a great time! There is no way to down play the place itself or the food. We thought our waitress was on her A game at first, but when we asked to cancel our chocolate cake after seeing the big cakes that came out, she said she already put in the order. The last thing was what left the whole party frustrated. She assumed the party of 13 was on one check. BIG NO NO! We were all separate and when we asked she said it would be too hard to separate them all now. We all sat there for more than half an hour circling our orders and what we were paying for. Always ask "together or separate"."
