Bravo! The Sausage Stuffed Rabbit was stellar, the after drinks were to die for. Service was awesome ( unfortunately can’t remember servers name):) must have been those drinks 😂 but he was awesome. We will be back! Glad we don’t live to far away. If you haven’t been your missing out.

On second visit to this year-old restaurant, we liked it even more than our first. Our server was outstanding; menu choices were varied so that all four of us had ample appealing choices, and every dish was perfectly prepared. The space is cozy if a bit close, but the tables and chairs were well selected for comfort and adequate space for dining. In all, an excellent experience.

Everything about our experience at Spring and Porter was excellent. The chicken Takeshi appetizer was absolutely incredible. May order two as an entree next time! The venison was delicious, perfectly cooked over a bed of spaetzle and scallops were beautifully seared, melt in your mouth with a side of pillowy gnocchi. This was a meal we will dream about. Plus terrific wine list and great service. We will be back!

We enjoyed our dinner here, seated quickly (had reservations). Our server was very nice and attentive. Ordered halibut and the beef filet, both very good. Also ordered creme brûlée which was very good and tried a suggested sample of wine to go with it and it was great!

This was our third time this season to eat at S&P. The food was great as always.Drinks were fine but my second glass of wine never came. The major problem was we nearly froze to death. We were seated in the far corner from the entrance door. About half way thru the meal the AC came on in full force. We mentioned it politely to our waiter, requesting he have it turned down. He returned a few minutes later stating, It has been turned down. 15 minutes later we were still freezing from the chilly draft. Our neighbors at the next table expressed their discomfort, too. This time we spoke to the waiter expressing our continued discomfort and asked for the check. 5 minutes later the problem was addressed and the area began to warm up. However, we left chilled to the bone, wondering if we would ever return.
Spring & PorterResponded on August 30, 2023
We are actively working to address the AC in the restaurant. When we built the new ceiling to improve the acoustics it changed how the air was circulated in the restaurant making some areas colder than others. We apologize for the discomfort that evening and please know this is being fixed as quickly as possible.

We tried a lot of the menu! Lobster Tostada was small but tasted excellent. The foie gras pate was creamy and wonderful! Med size Oysters were fresh, fully shucked, and had no grit. The Bolognese was a perfect classic. For main dishes, the ladies had the halibut on risotto and loved it (nice big piece). A friend got the beef filet sliced on top of the rigatoni (yes, 2 separate dishes combined) he was in heaven! But the best thing on the menu and one of the best things I every ate was the Venison Back Strap on Spätzle! F’ing DELICIOUS! It was cooked med rare. The Spätzle was amazing! You must try this dish…my half eaten picture doesn’t do any justice but had to take a pic!

The deep wine list focused on Italian wines is especially compelling here. Service is friendly, prompt and professional. The halibut dish one of us ordered was exceptionally good; the salmon dish was creative but the mustard was applied with too heavy a hand for our taste. The tomato bisque, on the other hand, was divine. Well worth another visit.

This is the second time we have been here. The first time was MUCH better. Scallops had no sear, chicken flavor was marginal, chicken appetizer was sooo dry. The last time we had this appetizer it was wonderful. I would recommend highly after our first visit, not this one.
Spring & PorterResponded on August 15, 2023
Hi Susan- we appreciate the feedback but would encourage in the future for you to let your server know while dining so they could immediately address any issues. We always want our guests leaving happy and having the best experience and apologize that this wasn't the case on your second visit with us.

Spring & Porter continues to impress us. It simply never fails to deliver outstanding and creative cuisine, carefully and impressively prepared and presented. What's more, unlike most other restaurants in this area, the menu changes frequently, which gives the chef the chance to showcase his abilities, and gives diners the chance to avoid eating the same selections over and over again. The service is warm, friendly and on point. We love it!
