    We really enjoy dining at Porter Creek. We were welcomed upon entering, seated promptly. Our server was training in a new person and they both were very attentive and provided us excellent service. Our food was hot & delicious. My friend had half a sandwich with a garden salad & I had the flatbread pizza with a Caesar Salad. A great time for us both, celebrating a belated birthday!

    Table was ready when we arrived. As requested, it was in a quieter area. Patrick, our server was attentive without rushing us. Good experience

    Food and service was great, as expected. Due to chilly weather we were seated in the enclosed “porch” area which was lovely, except too many tables were filled close together when there was lots of tables available to spread the parties out. As a result it was often hard to hear each other with booming voices right behind us. We enjoyed a lovely time, but next time please spread the parties out when you’re not that busy. Thanks!

    We were celebrating a Birthday, so we ordered two apps for the table. The goat cheese balls were great, but the bruschetta was terrible! Three out of the four Entree’s were subpar. For how much it cost it should have been at least average! Won’t be returning any time soon.

    We got there at 6:15. She took her drink orders right away, which was nice. She didn’t come back for 45 minutes and we finally placed our order we had salads. We left at 8:40 PM. I’ve never waited so long for a salad in my life, I had the southwest salad. It did not taste good at all and I’m usually not picky so I feel bad saying this. There was two chunks of rotisserie chicken and they’re not much at all. My friends said their salads were not good either. I don’t go out to eat a lot so I was very disappointed. The server kept apologizing because she was so late. The place was moderately busy. I just don’t know if I’ll come back.

    Our server, Brie, was very attentive and really made our evening. The scallop risotto was tasty. The salmon and halibut were solid dishes but not outstanding. The rotisserie chicken and fettuccine was especially delicious. The atmosphere was pleasant and the patio looks lovely. I’d want to sit on the patio next time but only if Brie was our server!

    Very nice patio, always a solid food offering. Slightly higher priced for the portions on appetizers but more than makes up for it with quality service and a very nice atmosphere.
