Music was way too loud. Most of charcuterie board was nice except the cut up string cheese. We had to go to the bar to order food, no wait staff. Earlier in the year, sitting on the actual back porch and eating crawfish during season was great. We were t impressed with the wine tasting event, disappointing.

3 stars because the food was ok and the beer did not disappoint. But the atmosphere…picture a club with the lights on. Yeah, not pretty. At least my kids could play foosball while we waited for our food. We were attended to by 3 different waitresses. That did not triple the attentiveness. We were left with empty cups. I had to go to the bar for more drinks because one of our waitresses was the bartender. If your goal is to hang out and play pool and get your food whenever, you’re gonna love it. If you are just taking your family out, take note, this is glorified bar food. I really wanted it to be better. I was hopeful. The outdoor lights and seating that I saw online are dreamy. It was too hot to sit outside. Maybe it will be better in the fall. 🤷🏼♀️
We visited tonight and Jaci Lashay was amazing! They were very short staffed and she was having to wait on all of the tables inside and out, and she did a very good job. Too many people like to blame a waitress for restaurant issues…..I saw many people that were mad at her, when she was literally having to prepare food herself!
Great place to go eat!! Highly recommend.

After looking at good reviews and having people recommend them we decided to swing by for some crawfish- spent about $140.00 or so (i absolutely love crawfish) and honestly have to say it was VERY disappointing. Dunno if it was a bad/off day but it was some of the worst tasting crawfish I’ve had to date… even the sides were bad. We asked the people sitting next to us and they said the same thing… maybe the other items on the menu are better but if this is their norm then unfortunately it’s a no…

By far the best crawfish of the season! We have tried several other places, and The Back Porch has all of them beat!

Food is the best thing about the place. Service and smell is pretty bad.

I don’t even like crawfish, but The Back Porch changed that. Fresh, perfectly seasoned, and just done right. Great live music, solid drinks, and the Friday night vibe was on point. I’ll be back.

Crawfish was wonderful and the service was great! We also enjoyed the live music 😁 To explain the price, we had 10lbs of crawfish, 2 orders of mushrooms, 1 order of potatoes, and 1 order of corn plus beverages.

I think it's a great place. They were very busy and shorthanded on servers. The crawfish in March are still very small and have no meat in the tail. My spouse said they had a good flavor just NO MEAT. The shrimp were flavorful but tasted like everyone else's boil shrimp in town. We enjoyed the food over all.
