We ate there on Friday night and the food was decent however our waitress, Klair was amazing. She made the best wine recommendation for a Red that we hadn't tried before and it paired perfectly. We'll definitely be back for that level of service!

I’ve pretty much been to every high end steak house ever, this place was honestly top notch! We came in really late before they closed and already felt bad about it, the service was still exceptional. They did not rush us at all. The host, server, bartender, and manager were all such nice people. I even left my cellphone there and they held it for me past close until I remembered and came back for it. As far as the food, it was 10/10. I got the filet and my boyfriend got the ribeye. They were both cooked perfectly and tasted amazing. The brussel sprouts, broccoli, fries, and mashed potatoes were great. The drinks were also delicious. I thoroughly enjoyed this place and it’s a new date night favorite for sure.

This was the worst place I’ve eaten in a long time. The calamari was extremely salty. It’s calamari no need to season especially if it comes with lemon and an already salty dip.The angel hair pasta was very mushy and the whole dish salty. You don’t need to cook angel hair long.The meatball and spaghetti was over cooked.The chicken dish was again very salty.All the food we ate was all extremely salty that it made it hard to enjoy the food that we didn’t even eat half our dish. They gave us key lime pie for “free” but doesn’t make up for the price we paid.I expect more from a place that’s a “steakhouse” especially considering the price.

I took my grandson there for dinner. I ordered a strip steak, medium rare. Slathering the top with butter attempts to hide the poor quality of the steak being served. It was perhaps the toughest strip steak that I ever had. They charge enough to procure a decent piece of meat to serve. It was also poorly trimmed and I had to cut away about a third of the steak as it was covered in fat. The waiter was nice and was professional and attentive. It is a decent atmosphere. I gave the food two stars because my grandson ordered a filet mignon which was acceptable and he enjoyed it.Parking: The only parking available seems to be metered street parking and requires you to drive around for a while to find an open spot. This was on a Tuesday evening.

For a wedding gift we were gifted money to go out to a nice restaurant. So I made a reservation for this place not knowing what to expect. (Wife and I don’t do fine dinning. We see longhorns as a nice outing) this place far exceeded our expectations. They had a table completely set out with candle and roses. This may be a normality but hey to us it was awesome. Our server Zach was prompt and quick with everything and made sure everything was to liking. The steak was so tender I could cut it with my fork. And again Zach was amazing never went without anything. He was on the spot with refills before I could even realize I needed more. All in all it was a wonderful time and a great experience! Thank you to Zach and the awesome team that made a special night even better.

I dined here for my 40th wedding anniversary and all of the servers were so knowledgeable and so willing to help with everything and all of my questions. I came here specifically for the Philly cheese eggrolls and they did not disappoint. They are a steakhouse but the chicken saltimbocca is To die for and I wouldn’t go anywhere else to celebrate my anniversary EVERY year

Porterhouse Grill used to be our go to spot for date night and Valentine’s Day, but that is no longer the case. We went a few months ago after not going for a while as it was our anniversary and saying we were disappointed was a gross understatement. The food was abysmal and the steaks were awful (severely overcooked and little to no flavor). I thought it was a one off so decided to give it another chance with some international guests and I have never been more embarrassed in my life. The food quality was so bad that some of my customers couldn’t even finish their meals. We went to Cookout afterwards because some of them were still hungry. I will unfortunately not be returning as the once great steakhouse isn’t even close to the best in Athens anymore.

Many thanks to Chef Anthony. Had a wonderful evening, wonderful food - but I left my card. Chef Anthony let me in to retrieve it the next day. Can’t say enough good things about this establishment. They have treated us well over the years.

I was looking around for a nice place to take my wife and PH did not disappoint. I had a surprise for my wife and the greeter Anthony was very courteous and went over the top for her surprise. The food was good. My server was Esther- She was very attentive and kind.
