    Sorry, to say… unfortunately, we do not have a good review for this visit. Sadly, it is no longer a favorite. Honestly, it had been a while since our last visit which also wasn’t great! After changing their menu, reducing portion size of apps and meals and dropping a few menu favorites. We’ve decided it’s no longer our go to!

    Server was unavailable during dinner and subsequently meals were sent back due to temperature and missing items. Manage was aggressive when asking what was wrong before informing him. My drink was prepared incorrectly. No concessions or liberties were offered.

    For the first time our service was abysmal. No one checked on us. We had four people come to our table. One to ask if we’d paid! No one knew our status. So strange for PC!

    Used to be one of our favorites, first choice! Unfortunately, they discontinued one of their menu favorites, Buffalo Mac & Cheese. We do dine there from time to time but, not nearly as often. Bring back your Mac & Cheese Please!

    Made our reservation the night before for 7pm Friday night. The place was very busy but we were seated immediately on time! Our server, Elizabeth was very friendly and attentive. I had the Halibut, it was prepared and presented wonderfully, and delicious! The other meal was the Roasted Chicken salad which my husband also said was wonderful. We didn't have dessert we didn't have room. Unfortunately we don't live in the area or we would definitely be back.

    They were very busy. It was very loud. We had a 6:30 reservation and they weren’t able to seat us until 6:50. Our server was very nice and did a good job. With so many other options I probably won’t go back. They were just okay overall. If I’m going to spend $100+ on a meal for two then it had to be better than okay.

    Our “reservation” was for 6;15 but no tables and didn’t get one until 6:50. They sat all tables and several people with reservations were waiting for nearly as long as people coming in without an open table reservation.

    Not the best steak (NY Strip) but it was ok. But the short ribs were great and the halibut dish was maybe the best I’ve ever had. I highly recommend it. The restaurant is very nice, very stylish and comfortable, the service was right on, and the prices were about what you’d expect for an upscale place not located downtown.

    Acudi el día de mi cumpleaños!!! Pésimo error éramos 11 personas el servicio fue muy tardado y añadieron  cosas que no pedimos a la cuenta, aparte la comida llegó frío, no comimos a gusto y pagamos una cuenta carísima, el mesero dijo que  aunque él hablara español no estaba permitido hablarlo allí, creo que nos trataron mal por ser latinos porque no querían que regresáramos

    We waited 20 minutes to sit outside with our reservation and was greeted pretty quickly by a someone who was helping out our server. They took our drink order but after two more visits with other servers we finally received our drinks. The were told that they were slammed and are clearly understaffed. Our food was very good though and service was better at the end.

    We love Porter Creek. Came here for a girls night dinner before a show and everything was perfect; accommodations for a friend who had recent surgery and needed a table close to the door, drinks, food, very friendly server…up until we finished eating and sat there for 24 minutes before our server came back where we could ask for the check. Almost made us late to the show. It was a busy, but not packed Thursday night.

    I LOVE this place! I go on Friday nites to treat myself to being "waited on'" after a long week of waiting on the American public (medical/optical field) We had a little trouble Tonight. My waiter Tre was set with 6 tables (full, very full) of brand new guests. I had to get the attention of one of the support staff to get our wine and place our orders. A Manager came by and asked if all is good, I said '"yes," but his waiter needed some help. It's okay to check to check up on your help, but maybe as a Mgr should pick up the water pitcher or dirty dishes off the table as you walk thru. Tre was great. Food was Excellent!

    We love Porter Creek! We brought our daughter & son-in-law for their first visit. We just had to let them experience why this is one of our favorites in all of Minnesota. They really enjoyed it, and plan to go back on their own. Our server was fabulous- Elizabeth. We have not been disappointed with staff, food, or ambience. We will be back - FYI - Happy Hour is wonderful here!

    We had a great dining experience. Started with the PC chowder and the starter Caesar salad… both were excellent! My husband had the new halibut entree & it was an exceptional, inspired dish!! A beautiful melange of flavors, halibut cooked perfectly, a wonderful mix of fresh veggies, and a decadent, delicious sauce! We will be back for this!! I ordered the NY Strip & it was cooked perfectly and was delicious… the herbed chèvre was a great addition!! I also had a glass of the King’s Ridge Willamette Valley Pinot and it was awesome!!! We were too full for dessert, but look forward to coming back to try their new lemon meringue bar. Thank you for a great meal!!
