   Delicious meal and excellent service. The black truffle mashed potatoes were definitely a favorite.

   I sat at bar and ordered a glass of wine. One of the listings for wine had the glass price of 1 wine at $40. While I did not order that one at the bar, I wanted to order a last of the $40 wine at the table. The wine list had it at $45. When I pointed out it was listed at $40 at the bar, I was told by both the waiter and the bar manager "sorry, wrong prices at the bar, they forgot to change it." That is totally poor hospitality and I will never return again. Dinner including tip was over $600 and it was not the $5 it was the lack of hospitality. I own and operate 130 restaurants and I would never say that to a guest- I would give him the wine for $40. It is strictly principia which Porter does not have.

   Forgot to salt a 100$ steak and the waitstaff initially just pointed me to the salt and asked me to do it myself. Had to get the manager to intervene and get the steak fixed.

   Another great dinner date venue and food! Server was slightly unfriendly but may just have been an off night. We will be back on a future NYC visit as Porter House continues to be a favorite!

   The food was delicious, unfortunately it was overcrowded and extremely loud which killed the atmosphere. I could barely understand my partner and you could also tell the waiters were stressed, but doing a great job. I think it would make the dinner experience way better of the tables weren’t packed so closely next to each other that you can barely pass in between. This makes it feel like a dinner at Times Square.

    A fantastic evening filled with delicious food, great wines, and wonderful service. The chili-rubbed ribeye was FANTASTIC!!! And the coconut layer cake is the best I ever had. Highly recommended.

    Our server was exceptionally courteous and friendly, always available to meet our needs, but never hovering too close to the table. He also was able to engage in a variety of conversational topics. The kitchen turned out extremely high quality food. My wife thoroughly enjoyed a steak; ditto for me with the pork chop.

    Second time I've eaten here in 6 weeks, and the food, ambience, service and value are consistently very good to excellent. An outstanding choice if one is going to see a performance at Jazz at Lincoln Center, same building.

    Nice afternoon lunch with the family. Porterhouse steak was way over prized. The lunch specials were a great option. Great service. Nice desserts. Too expensive overall. Nice experience but we probably won’t be back.

    Porterhouse is one of the top 3 steakhouses in NYC, and an in a city where the steakhouse is a tradition going back nearly 250 years, for a relative newcomer, that's saying a lot. Do. Not. Miss.

    I visited with our family and friends for my husbands birthday. The staff didn’t acknowledge my husbands birthday or seem to care until the very end. It would have been nice to have them to ask him for his order first, for instance L, but they took his order last which was quite aloof and I thought rude. On drinks; The somlier recommended a wine within my price point that was quite acidic and young tasting (think “Boujoulie”) although I wanted something more round and full without tannins. They should be able to do better. Further we asked for two to three bottles for the table but the somlier said they would see if they had them after only bringing us one. He and the waitstaff never followed up and I had to chase down another somlier to get a second bottle from the table. (A Daou from Paso Robles which was much better than the first). They further over poured to people who were drinking slowly or had one wine glass totally full while under pouring the younger men in our party). My mother got two chocolate martinis, the first was excellent while the second she noted was not as good as the first. On food: we got broccoli, spinach (steamed and creamed), French fries, and asparagus as well as a potato gratin ? We didn’t order. The sides were very good. Our steaks were just ok. Our medium cowboy steak was served medium-well with the ends far too over cooked. Finally, I had the hamachi for a starter and I had some GI distress (and was the only one) after dinner. On another note, the volume was incredibly loud and we could hardly hear one another. I can make better steak at home on my cast iron. Perhaps this was an off day as previously I had loved my steaks and the service at Porterhouse. Will not recommend or be coming back any time soon.

    I made reservations as soon as the reservation window opened. I requested a window seat overlooking Central Park but upon arrival, this did not happen. The food was good, drinks were good and service was good.

    The waiter of our table provided a poor service (not polite, made mistakes in orders twice), not much attendance. The order was medium rare, but the actual dish was almost rare.
