   We had two more people show up unexpectedly and the staff accommodated this change easily. Food was good and I had asked for a quiet area, which they provided. Only issue was that it was quite warm. This may have been because it was hot outside. Overall, it was a pleasant experience.

   Great food. Great service. Cost to eat out in July 2022 is insane. Hanger steak was $32. Incredibly delicious artichoke dip was $13 and the size of coffee cup. Lovely place and meal for my Birthday but the cost is too high....

   Beginning at the reception desk, the host and hostess were kind and helpful. We appreciated being able to select our own table as I have a hearing disorder and am scared to death of Covid. Our waitstaff, Rebecca, was outstanding. She knew the menu inside and out, was very helpful with our selections, and just so pleasant about our visit to the restaurant. Food was good for everyone at our table.

   Took over 10 min to get a waiter. Then our drinks, appetizers and entrees all came within 10 minutes. Frozen veggies not fresh. Couldn't sub for mashed potatoes?? This is 4th time bad service and food. Won't be back.

    Not very nice people, took my sibling there for Eid a Muslim holiday. We chose to sit outside and everyone around us has this umbrella up and my siblings wanted it up as well so they could take a cute picture of the place, when I asked my server was very sweet and asked a boy to open it but then the manager came out he got very very frantic barked at me that the sun was pointed another direction and that I didn’t need the umbrella everyone around us has theirs up? and once I felt uncomfortable and told him it was fine and he could put it down he didn’t, he kept making us uncomfortable, he told us why we didn’t need to have it up, he asked us why and then still proceeded to put it up??? This literally caused both tables around us to start talking about us we could hear both tables talking crap and it didn’t help that we where the only African Americans sitting outside. We where literally discriminated over a damn umbrella & it’s crazy how every single table had theirs up but once the black family asks it’s a lot more difficult.

    Rotating menu always has something great! Fish and pasta as well as roasted chicken are all favorites. Combine with fresh salads and weekly deals is a winner.

    This was my first time at Porter Creek. We had a 11 A.M. reservation on Saturday the 28th of May. I had the walleye, and my friend had a large salad. She had a glass of red wine and I had two mixed drinks. We finished the meal by sharing a cheesecake. The restaurant was nice and quiet. There weren't very many people there. The servers were friendly, attentive and made our time at Porter Creek better. My walleye was too heavily breaded and came with small red potatoes and spinach salad. I also ordered a Cesar salad. The walleye cost $29 which was not worth it. The amount was reasonable, but the taste was sub-par. The mixed drinks (screwdrivers) were both very weak. The Cesar salad was small and nothing to get excited about for $5. All in all, the service and atmosphere were commendable, but the food was not.

    We went to Porter Creek to celebrate our anniversary. It was a busy night - with multiple tables of prom groups. Our servers were attentive and conversational even with the amount of tables they were covering. And the food was excellent! We even got a free dessert for our anniversary.

    My wife ordered a filet with roasted vegetables, she sent the steak back 3 times, and the vegetables were burnt and over cooked. Terrible meal. The Mgr. Came over and comp. The meal, give us a dessert. For the prices they charge, I think this restaurant really needs to find a new chef.

    Once again, Porter Creek provided an excellent dining experience. The food was epic, best steak I've had in years. My date enjoyed the Spare Ribs. They weren't served with a knife, quickly noted the Spare Ribs were so tender that a.knife was redundant. I made a.special request, to have my beverage served when my steak was presented. Even after shift change had another server step in, my request was perfectly fulfilled. Never had to ask for drink refills, they just appeared when our drinks became.low. Both of our veggies were perfectly cooked, the other sides.were perfect. The server(s) were attentive yet unobtrusive. Their product knowledge was sharp, accurate.and on point.

    A great choice of restaurants for Birthday and late Mother’s Day dinner with the sisters and mom. We always love the food and wine (1/2 price bottles on Tuesday!) New summer menu looks great, although we stuck with our favorites this time. Service was excellent and they found us a “less noisy” corner so we could easily chat.

    Overall it was good. It was Mother’s Day, so very busy. The host was less than friendly and rather curt. She also seemed impatient with her fellow staff. However our waiter was great. Friendly and informative. I’m sorry I didn’t make note of his name. He did the perfect up sell on wine, got us to buy a bottle and he was right, it was a very nice rose!

    Porter Creek is one of our favorite restaurants in the area. If we want a special day out with a meal PC is where we go. When we make reservations for lunch on a nice day, (like many others) we request a table on the patio -and a high top is best. My husband is disabled, uses a walker, and the patio is the most convenient for him, along with a high top. On 5.7.22, I made 1:30 reservations and requested the patio. I recognize there is a statement that patio seating cannot always be accommodated. We checked in and the front desk person, said he had a patio table and when we got there, that was not available, we understood, and took a table in the adjacent interior sun room. It was perhaps 2 minutes and two tables opened on the patio. We told the person who took our drink order that we had requested a patio table and noticed two opened. He left with our drink orders, and someone else brought our drinks, and we again mentioned that we saw there were now tables on the patio, which we had requested... no response. It worked out okay, yet I would have expected better customer service, it was almost like our request was no longer a concern as we were seated. Had I have not asked about the available patio tables. it would not have bothered me, but I saw the wait staff's follow-up customer service as not the usual that we had expected and received in the past. Our server, Amy, was attentive to our food requests and pleasant, our food was very good, as were the drinks, yet we were disappointed that our patio request could have easily been made, had someone demonstrated they cared or it mattered. We will go back to Porter Creek, Burnsville again and if is a nice day, ask for a patio table, and understand if all are not available. Yesterday, however, was a different situation. Plus, I will insert that because of my husband's disability (Parkinson's) it is easier and more comfortable for him (and me) to be on the patio. We are still fond of Porter Cree and will return.
