When we walked into the restaurant was still decorated with Mardi Gras theme. Looking around there is plenty of seating, indoor and outdoor. The service was great. The food was good and the music wasn’t so loud that you couldn’t have a conversation with the table. Beer area and look at to try something new give the spice a try and I believe they have two more locations in different cities.“

“So my experience at City Pork on Highland was amazing. The interior was clean and modern. I believe our servers name was Aisha, and I was honestly having a bad day and she made me feel so much better with her kindness and hospitality. My meal was the Pork Belly Hoagie and I would rate that an 8.5/10. I think if it had some pickled onions on it to balance the richness from the pork belly, it would be even more amazing. Although it did come with a pickle, but I didn’t really care for that, it was too sweet for my liking so I give that a 4/10. I also had a side of coleslaw, and it had this peppery taste, which I actually enjoyed, while it was still sweet (but not too sweet) and crunchy. I’ll give that a 7.5/10. My husband got the smoked chicken and he would give that a 9.5/10, because he wanted even more because it was so good.“

But she brought the wrong orders twice and was just kinda spaced out. Anyways we still had a great time.“
