    Overall experience was amazing the reservation was easy to make and when arriving to the restaurant all the staff was super friendly and hospitable. Our server was amazing he made it feel like we were guests in his own home and took care of us just like family. The food was delicious and came exactly as expected from a restaurant of this status. This was the best anniversary diner I could have asked for. Will absolutely be back again.

    We enjoyed our time a Porters House. We sat at the bar which is our preferred choice. We opted for salads and appetizers for dinner. Frankly the last few times we have been there for steaks they have been terrible. Our choices last night were great as was our wine bottle selection. We would recommend Porters House just not for their steaks!!

    Shrimp cocktail served on a plate with some sauce. not very big. Shrimp cocktail needs improvement. Filet was somewhat dry. Prime rib sandwich was excellent.

    Ordered a ribeye steak cooked medium (hot pink center per the restaurants menu), it came out well done (grey). I let them know and they offered to cook a new one - the second one came out in 5 mins, they asked me to slice it open down the middle and I did, it was purplish red, they said that looks undercooked and took it back, came out with a third steak and they asked me to cut that open and it was light pink/grey and I just said that’s fine - my family was done eating so didn’t want to wait any longer but certainly a disappointing experience to have on Father’s Day at a steakhouse. Will not be returning.

    Our server was very friendly and attentive, the person bringing out the food got it wrong every course, the water refills were dizzying - they definitely earned their tips. Please just leave the pitchers on the table or get larger glasses.. I love a good water refill but every 5 seconds was too much. The steak was delicious and everything else was fair. Not good, not bad. We had Sausage board (burnt bread-not wood fired but BURNT), Shrimp Cocktail, the Tuna and the crab cake apps, all fair - none tasty or particularly outstanding about any of them. Mains included Steak Frittes, the Pasta and Filets. Steaks were delicious. Desserts were the Carrot Cake, Chocolate Cake, Oreo Cheesecake and Brownie Sundae. All good, Brownie was a standout. The sides were sharable sizes. Great ambience and you could see that others appreciated an "upscale" restaurant among the fast food joints. We will not be back. It did not wow us for the price. There are plenty of better steak places in Charlotte with a little more of a drive.

    Another one of our favorite restaurants. We like to sit at the high top tables in the bar area. Nelson took great care of us! He makes the best Four Roses Manhattan! We always start with the mussels and they are a hit every time. All of the staff are friendly, and Charlene is our favorite!

    Food was mediocre and prices high. We had not been here in about a year and definitely not as good as it was previously

    Our daughter has been there several times, and gave us a gift card that we used to celebrate our anniversary. My wife ordered filet mignon and I had Alaskan halibut. Both were excellent. We had salads, Caesar for her, wedge for me, and shared a side of mashed potatoes. Outstanding, but my wife tasted my wedge salad, and said it was a bit better than the Caesar. All in all, a terrific experience. And the service was exceptional.
