Reviews for PORCH in Calgary, AB
Porch has a really good happy hour! Good choice of drinks, very good food and nice patio. It has a very relaxed vibe here and... servers were very nice. Had a choice to sit in the restaurant, patio or the swing area which had a open concept. The onlyproblem was they were pretty slow at serving us and food took a long time. I will definitely come back here on the weekend butif you're in a hurry for a quick bite I wouldn't recommend this place. Read more
Made reservations for Porch on a Saturday. Was greeted with a smile and seated right away. The atmosphere was really great, lots... of natural components tied together to make you feel like you were on a tropical vacation somewhere. Our server's name was Anna,she was amazing! She made recommendations on food and entertained us when we asked for her to get creative with our cocktails.She really made the experience on our date night more memorable. The food was so delicious and packed full of flavor. We had thecalamari to start (best calamari I have ever had), the beef braised short ribs with these amazing little deep fried jalapeños(could eat a plate full of just these), and the lobster gnocchi. Next time when we book, we will be sure to ask for areservation on the patio. Otherwise, this was a great evening and we highly recommend. Read more
Food is okay, interesting flavour combinations, but I feel like I can make it tastier at home. Drinks and service were also... okay. The decor of the place is beautiful. In the non summer months they crank up the heaters to an unbearable temp, so beaware. Cool place to visit, once or twice. But not a "go to" place. Read more
We went here for a birthday with a table of 7 and it was incredible. Service was amazing, the owner came over to make sure we... had a lovely dinner. The food was amazing! We ordered a lot of the menu to share and there wasn?t anything that wasn?tdelicious. Highly recommend coming here! Also the space is very pretty and does not feel like you?re in Calgary. Feels likeyou?re at a beautiful resort or restaurant in Spain. Will be back for sure! Read more
Great ambience, great Mediterranean inspired food! Staff were friendly as well. The interior is really unique and definitely... catches your attention. Went here on Canada Day when the weather was sunny which added to the atmosphere! Would definitely comeback here! Read more
A cool place with both indoors and outdoors blending together. Came in for dinner, back in April, with a group of five of us -... not overly busy - food was good but he atmosphere of the restaurant was the star of the show. Weather was not the best when Iwent so we did not enjoy the patio but will likely drop in sometime this summer to check it out again. Read more
A super trendy, Mediterranean inspired restaurant with great food and cocktails. All our our meals were delicious and fresh, and... the cocktails were good too. The interior is very well done and draws you in from the street. It was really big so this would bea great place to come with a larger party. Read more
I enjoyed the food and the vibe. The winning point for me was the decor and the unique bar with swings instead of chairs. My... update of the second visit: still awesome vibe. I ordered lobster gnocchi which I don?t recommend. Flat bread and calamari arethe best. Read more
