Porter & Luke's

This has been my 3rd time here and they do not disappoint! My friend and I started off with the specialty drink, Carnival Martini and it was delicious. We had the onion rings appetizer, the special of the day Catfish Sophie which was fried catfish with angel pasta in a cream sauce with crawfish and their specialty doberge cake for dessert Their onion rings are some of the best I've had. Not greasy with a light batter and amazing seasoning. The Catfish Sophie was so wonderful. The catfish was fried to perfection and not greasy and the angel pasta with crawfish cream sauce was drool worthy. The Carnival diverge cake and as amazing! Our server Sarah was helpful and very attentive. Always clean when we go. It's very spacious with several different rooms and a bar with lots of TV's for watching sports. Highly recommend!

a lot of people had recommended this restaurant so we decided to check it out for lunch. Positives are the great service - we had great service but generally all around the service and attention to the older patrons was amazing.we started off with the onion rings which were decent. we then got the small house, trout almandine, and the eggplant parmesan. the house salad was decent, the accompanying dressing was really good; the trout was big in size and had a good crust but the fish and flavor were bland, and accompanying were green beans and potatoes which tasted like breakfast potatoes; good portion size but a bit bland. the eggplant parm was decent but the flavoring was bland and the eggplants were smaller (there are other places who make the sauce better and bigger eggplants)overall, great service with decent portion food but bland

YOU CANT MAKE THIS UP! I came to this establishment today to eat but I sat at the bar because I was alone and I was refused service because your bartender wouldn't accept my global re-entry card as a form id because she simply "didn't know what it was" Congrats! I will not be back.

I really want to like this place as I have given this place at least three chances and the food is just flavorless. I thought the alcohol could salavage the medicore food, but the cocktails were dissappointing as well. The last time we dined here was during Mardi Gras and they had the fun Mardi Gras themed cocktails. I love themed food/drinks and I just decided to give this place one more shot. We came for brunch. I ordered the fried chicken benedict. I think this could be the most bland fried chicken, zero spices, not even any pepper on this chicken. The eggs were cooked properly, but hollandaise needed more lemon, perhaps. The side potatoes were decent, probaly needed more salt. Its just missing basic flavors. The food here is more in line with what you get at a hospital, where they are purposely trying to keep seasonings out of the food for patients sake. On to the cocktail... the drinks were just potent and not tasty. Mardi Gras cocktails are supposed to be fun and tast good and I just tasted gasloine. I love the location, the parking, the prices, the spaciousness in the restaurant, and the service is impecable. I just wish they would train their chefs on basic flavor profiiles. I may give them a fourth try if that happens.

4.5 stars! Service was fine! Our waiter was really nice. Our entrees were pretty solid! I had the Eggplant Sophie and my cousin had Pecan Crusted Catfish. I really enjoyed my pasta. It was nicely seasoned and the eggplant medallions were fried to absolute crunchy perfection. The pasta was also cooked to perfection. My cousin had the pecan crusted catfish, which was tasty as well. The fish could've used a bit more seasoning or salt but overall it was crunchy and flaky.We also shared the blue crab dip. For me, it was an 8/10. I wasn't too fond of how runny it was and I wish it had more crab. I think (could be very wrong) they use a heavy mayo base, which could explain why I wasn't a huge fan. Nonetheless, the flavor profile was solid. Overall, I found this place to be pretty dang good! It wasn't busy at all when we went which made for a quick late lunch!

Kinda disappointed this go round. I've always enjoyed Poter and Luke's but this time I was very disappointed. Took my mother in law for dinner, she ordered the special, Lima beans with a breaded pork chop, hubby had a burger, and I got the creola salad. MIL beans were barely warm but at least the pork chop was hot. Hubby said his burger was fine but it was overcooked. My salad was just ok. The crispy andouille was not and the 3 tiny shrimp had a weird taste. Couldn't really put my finger on it, just didn't have your typical boiled shrimp flavor. And the service was SLOW. Not sure what the issue was because they were not busy at all. Hopefully they get back on track. It really was one of my favorite neighborhood restaurants.

The menu said stack eggplant with gulf shrimp and crawfish with creamy sauce with angel hair pasta. We were disappointed that the 3 medallions of eggplant was spread next to angel hair pasta with sauce over pasta. Pasta was slightly warm and eggplant was very hot. The gulf shrimp and crawfish were very tiny.Will not order that again. The server was very good.

My dinner of egg plant and seafood over pasta with a cream sauce was amazing . Will definitely return ! The only issue my paying cash and waiting to get my change returned. I was told to see the bar tender and he had no idea what I was talking about. Eventually the server gave it to me after I walked around awhile looking for her !

I've been underwhelmed each time I've given this restaurant a try. Too many options in this town to settle. Wait staff cordial- only reason I gave them 2 stars

I love this place! The food is always excellent. Prepared to perfection. No matter what you order on the menu, you won't be disappointed. Best part, they're reasonably priced. Whenever my friends and family ask me what I want for Christmas or my birthday, I say, I want gift cards from P&L's
