We just got home… ordered the new butternut squash pizza, and instead got a burnt pizza that looks absolutely nothing like the picture. Horrible product

Came for dinner before a concert and left very unimpressed. Ordered the roast beef sandwich and it had a small amount of meat on it and was all dried out and old looking and extremely gristly. Combine that with a meager portion of little spoon smushed mini potatoes and I was left wishing I'd spent the money on junk food at the venue instead. Beer list was decent though but sparse on IPAs, probably just sold out / between taps. The place looks really nice though, makes you expect more than I what I got.

The Salmon Burger was excellent ?!!

I wish I had taken a picture of the food. They took an hour to bring the food out, and then it was burnt. I got the cinnamon roll, which isn’t on the menu but has pictures, and my husband got the avocado toast. When we first arrived, it was not organized. There were two hosts—one said she had to find us somewhere to sit, and the other immediately seated the couple who came in after us at a table we could have had. We were thoroughly confused. That was probably the first sign that we should have left. We were then seated, but it took a while for the waiter to get to us. When he finally arrived, we ordered immediately. The waiter never returned to check on us, and it took an hour to get the food, which was burnt. A waste of time. The only reason I am giving them 2 stars is because other people’s food looked good, and the management staff was accommodating, but we had a meeting and needed to leave.

It was yummy and pleasant. We went after a Pitt. University tour. Service a bit patchy but overall a nice experience.

Under seasoned food, under attentive staff
For the most part decent food and decent beer - but one sin that there's just no excuse for: under seasoning risotto (with scallop). There's just no reason for that except incompetent kitchen staff. That said, the scallops were perfectly *cooked* - you win back a star for that.

My husband and I had our rehearsal dinner here and everyone had a great time. The service was great and our servers were very kind especially with our large group. We worked with the Porch management before our event to pick out a custom dinner menu for our event and they were very professional and gave us all of the information we needed. Would recommend!

I frequent The Porch a lot for its convenience, but my experience today was slightly disappointing. Firstly, upon arrival, there was a customer leaving the building who we held the door for. We waited for him to get through the door when a waitress came up behind us outside and aggressively told us to GO! as the man was still exiting...This was so upsetting and odd. Then the guy who waited on us took our order, then came back ten minutes later and told us he forgot what we ordered. I usually do not have this many issues, but today was a different story. I love The Porch but this just put a bad taste in my mouth.

We are going this restaurant regularly with my colleagues. Until now I tried pizza, wagyu beef burger and kinoa-salmon bowl. Pizza and burger were tasty but the salmon bowl was a gastronomic failure. Even with the dressing the taste was not good enough. Portions are normal and prices are reasonable for a lunch.
