Below Average Service and Food Let me just start by telling everybody this critique is based on a dinner midst restaurant week.
The service and the food were below par, I would actually rate my meal as downright terrible. I ordered a NY strip that was literally the worst cut of "NY Strip" they could muster. This steak was so tuff and so hard to chew that at first I thought the blades on my knife were dull. Granted the NY str... Read More On CitysearchCassy501 2/2/2009
Good enough Just went to this restaurant this weekend w/ guests.If you're a red meat person this is a good place. The steaks were perfect but the side dishes nothing special. Also the restaurant is very loud the wait staff too busy. Read More On CitysearchCitysearch User 12/15/2008
STEAK FOR SURE! Walking into this relatively new restaurant feels a bit like entering an exclusive men's club. And why not? The staff will make you feel you are a member of a very important inner circle and if you are a lover of steak, the food will more than satisfy. Perfect for business luncheons and a must to impress those visiting out of towners who are serious meat eaters. Read More On CitysearchCitysearch User 11/25/2008
great service, amazing salad, good food went there for restaurant week and had a great experience. the wait staff was very attentive and our water glasses were never empty...they also gave us a complimentary side of vegetables. nice atmopshere w/ a lot of windows and a nice view of the city. the salad was absolutely delicious, the steak was good but not as good as other steak houses i've been to (like aj maxwells - amazinggg steak) alt...

Great space with excellent service It's so nice to have a comfortable restaurant like this in the Columbus Circle area. You can sit for hours in this place and not want to rise, and there is plenty of space between diners. That is not something you can say about most places in NYC. Of course, there are great views as well from the tables fronting the Circle. Although the steak is not the greatest I've ever had, it's very good. I'v... Read More On Citysearchreadthis 12/18/2007
pleasantly surprised based on some of your reviews, i was expecting an overpriced good meal with poor service. i'm sure going on Tuesday helped but i was pleasantly surprised. The Porterhouse was super [also huge] and the service was very good. The cost was in line with BLT Prime and Bobby Vans. The bar was nice too. What bothered me was that when i called they said that dress was"buisness casual", jackets preferred.... Read More On Citysearchsteelerman 7/30/2007
Restaurant Week Delight - $24.07 Lunch I don't know what happened with the last reviews but went to Lunch here yesterday and service, decor, view and food were perfect. Plus, they had a restaurant week lunch special for $24.07 for app, entree and desert.
I had the Caesar, Hangar Steak and Raspberry Sorbet and all were great. Steak was perfectly cooked (ordered medium to be safe and served on the rare side which was great) and ser... Read More On Citysearchcardplayer 7/18/2007
Way overpriced I'm not the kind of person that minds spending money on a good meal, on the contrary I have spent exorbitant amounts of money on great restaurants and quality steak houses through out NYC. While there was nothing horrible at this place, there was nothing at all outstanding!..... The first thing that comes to mind on my 2 visits to this place is.....way overpriced. The food.....There were no fire... Read More On Citysearchmarrisaf 6/6/2007
nice server bad food The $76.00 steak was cold. the cream spinach was watery and cold. The funniest part is the salad was not cold. The service was good, and the place itself is nice, the view is spectacular. Too bad the food didn't measure up. Read More On Citysearchdustray 3/16/2007
disappointing reataurant week I tried the field greens, steak and rice pudding off the restaurant week. All were decent but not good. My friend had the butternut sqush bisque, salmon and rice pudding. The butternut squash bisque was pretty good but the salmon tastes exactly like the salmon i cook at home on my george foreman grill with salt and pepper. Other friend didnt order off the restaurant week menu. He had the Friday ... Read More On Citysearchsplashkpl 2/3/2007
A great new steakhouse that really delivers the goods Just went back to Porter House for my third visit and it was as good if not even better this time around. we go to a lot of steakhouses, all the big names, and think Porter House is really holding its own. Its not only a great steakhouse with real deal prime dry aged beef, but it has so much more-- fish, seafood, great sides, potatoes. This time around we had a first rate dry aged prime porterho...

Truly disappointed! We went to Porter House for restaurant week expecting the same quality of food as their regular menu. However, our steak was over cooked and burnt when it was supposed to be medium well - it tasted something like I would get from Denny's. My jaw was hurting when chewing the steak. The fries tasted like they just purchased from McDonalds. The Mac and Cheese tasted like something you would get ... Read More On Citysearchfoodcritictoo 2/1/2007
Great food, nice atmosphere, quiet location (Time Warner Center), good service Went here on Monday night as part of restaurant week. My friend got the restaurant week set menu and I went off the menu a la carte. She had the ceasar salad, steak frites and finished with the devil's food cake. I had the crab cake to start, then the chilli rubbed ribeye and shared her desert :-)
Salad was very tasty, MAYBE a touch too much dressing. The crab cake was very good, very fre... Read More On Citysearchproduction355 1/23/2007
Good try, but not good If you want to feel like you left the island of Manhattan and have traveled to Sin City, go to Porter House.
The room is beautiful and a very comfortable setting and staff very accomidating, though a bit overly.
We could have done away with the nasty comments by the hostess when we arrived and told her there was a change in number in our party.
The staff was a little slow and not very helpful ... Read More On Citysearchrobnyc 11/1/2006
