New Year's Eve dinner. Reservations required. Full house, even early around 6pm. We used OpenTable a month or so ago and it worked flawlessly. Greeting quickly at the door, given the choice of two different tables and picked the one in the back room, close to the fire pit (was looking for a better word for this as it is a very nice fire display). Once seated, quickly approached about water or bottled water. Server approached very soon after. Full, standard menu on NYE, which is great. Some places take advantage of the holidays to force a prix fixe menu on you, not here - thank you. As the name would suggest, Porterhouse, this is a steakhouse. Even though, the restaurant was named in honor of a retired firefighter named Porter. Porter's House...Porterhouse. Very appropriate, both ways. Several other entrees available and all plated very professionally. When you walk in, it has a great vibe, especially on a busy night. Bar area was full and buzzing. Most tables and booths filled, perfectly dimly lit but bright enough to see where you are walking and your dining partner. We ordered the crab cake appetizer, salmon entree, Wagyu New York strip and the fingerling potatoes. Crab cake is full of crab, slightly over grilled which required a knife to cut a few areas, but very flavorful and great to share for two. Salmon entree came with a Thai salad on top that had a slight kick. Salmon was prepared perfectly and very much enjoyed by my wife. I had the NY strip. It was cooked exactly as ordered and enjoyable. Not quite as flavorful and tender as I hoped for a Wagyu. I'll pick a filet on my next visit. The fingerling potatoes were just okay. The top few were good with the bacon and the garnish. Once that was gone, the ones below needed more flavor. I wound up taking them home, rewarming them for lunch the next day and just added a little salt and sour cream on the side. Worked out great. Two slight disappointments. First, when you are paying over $60 each for a steak dinner, you should be offered bread for free. Even if you just bring out a bread bowl and let the diner select one each. Charging for bread in this type of establishment is very disappointing. Corkage fee - yes, I understand that they prefer to make money selling their own wines but $35 for corkage is a bit much. Just my two cents. Will we be back? Yes. Should you try? I'd say yes as well. Enjoy!

Every time I come to Porterhouse the staff is phenomenal, attentive, and friendly! The mushrooms, steak, drinks, appetizers are all delicious! And the ambiance is so lovely! Can't wait to go back!

This was a restaurant recommended by a friend who recently dined there. Everything was very nice about the restaurant beginning with the wait staff, and ambience and the food was amazing. They are known for their steaks and bourbons. My son is somewhat of a bourbon connoisseur and he ordered drinks for us. I had an old-fashioned that was well-made. I don't know the name of the bourbon, but it was nice and smooth. I ordered the Wagyu 12 ounce New York cut it was fabulous. I was not able to finish it so I took the rest of it home and had a nice lunch the next day. I will definitely go back.

Can't get enough of this place! The atmosphere, wine/spirit selectioselection, finely crafted food menu, and the friendly and knowledgeable staff is top notch. Whether it's appetizers, or a fine meal, you will not be disappointed. Absolutely one of my top favorite places to dine with family, and friends

Super cute restaurant on a lovely Saturday with my sister and goddaughter. We were greeted pleasantly by the hostess and seated immediately. Love that for us. Immediately we started off with our drinks and we can prepared to order. The bread was definitely a lovely blend of thyme and dough almost melt in your mouth ! For starters I tried the crab cake with corn sauce and it was yummy. Very filling very flavorful. I could lick the plate of sauce it was so tasty !!! I opted for the New York waygu medium and it was delicious I couldn't have asked for better. Sis got the filet well done medallion style (can't change some people lol) she said it was delicious and juicy so I think that's a win all across the board for our steaks For our sides we had the Brocollini with miso on the side and herb garlic mashed potatoes. Let me say these potatoes were delicious. Top notch For desert we chose the bread pudding with vanilla gelato and boy oh boy were we completely and utterly satisfied.

2nd time coming here and it is still outstanding! It was a birthday dinner for my buddy Olga. We started with the Wagyu Steak Tartare mid the Saffron Poached Colossal Shirmp Cocktail, they were so very good! Loved them both! We order the a couple if Wagyu steaks, one Filet Mignon for Olga and the New York both from Margaret River, Australia. Let me tell you they were cooked perfect, Filet Medium and the NY Rare for me. We ordered two sides dishes to join them. The grill jumbo asparagus and the herded roasted garlic infused buttery mashed potatoes. They were great as well. Then we finished it off with a comped the 100 Grand Bar for Olga's Birthday and the Salted Caramel Butterscotch Pot De Creme!!! What a wonderful way to finish off this outstanding dinner!!!

made reservations for porterhouse via opentable for my s/o birthday!! we were greeted as we entered. the restaurant is gorgeous. from the brick wall to the lighting to the wine room the lighting was uniformly distributed throughout the restaurant, which made the place very inviting and elegant everyone that worked there were so welcoming. we were asked if this was our first visit, which it was. our waitress was so kind. she explained the menu, wine and drink menu and even told us to check out the "patio" upstairs! we ordered: SAUTÉED LUMP CRAB CAKE WAGYU BURGER WAGYU 8OZ FILET MIGNON FRIED FINGERLING POTATOES WITH CANDIED BACON LARDONS HERBED ROASTED GARLIC INFUSED BUTTERY MASHED POTATOES GRILLED JUMBO ASPARAGUS everything was delicious. the service was praiseworthy although i did tell her, we were there for his birthday and she acknowledged, nothing was brought out after our meal. i think she forgot or they don't offer anything for birthdays?? regardless, the food was delicious! parking: street, parking lot, parking garage

Many of my posts about about the experience of dining with my special needs son. And from that perspective, Porterhouse B&B was amazing. From the hostess who was gracious and got us seated quickly despite being early, to Marie our waitress who knew how the work with us without having to say a word. The food was quick to come out and served as expected, but I felt like every item ordered was a bit short of being great. And given the price, I give four instead of five stars.

Stopped by last night for the DineLA promo. Upset that I haven't been here sooner! The food was great, the service is amazing! Counting the days until I return. Erin was my server, very knowledgeable of the menu with great recommendations! The shrimp cocktail was probably the best I ever had, "colossal" as an understatement, they were massive, with great flavors! The steak tartare was delicious, make sure you ask for extra crostini's as the tartare portion is grand. The filet mignon was cooked to perfection! All in all, will definitely be returning, ASAP! Perfect for date night!

Service, cocktails, and ambiance 5/5 Food 3/5 I highly recommend the Live Wire, as it was phenomenal. The Black Manhattan was wonderful as well and perfect for small sips. For dinner, we shared the ribeye with broccolini, mashed potatoes, and bread. The only dish worth raving about was the broccolini. The sauce was addicting, and we ended up dabbing some on the rest of our food to give it flavor. Everything else was underwhelming. The mashed potatoes were really salty, and I didn't like the seasoning on my steak because it overpowered the meat flavor. For dessert, we ordered the 100 Grand Bar, and it was absolutely divine! Highly recommend saving room for it. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience. I felt a bit of diner's remorse for ordering a $70 ribeye that was mediocre at best, but there were enough bright spots to warrant 4 stars. If I ever return, I'm having the wagyu burger. It looked delicious and seemed to be popular with the crowd.
