    Porter Soul Food Restaurant - Turkey wings yams and white rice

    Porters Soul Food is fantastic! Everything we have had at Porters has been delicious…read more We can't wait to go back again!!

    We went to Porters on the strength of their commercials. With great anticipation, we were set for a…read moregreat soul food experience. So what did we get? Well first of all the place is clean. It resembles a church hall where you would go following service, so quite cozy. The workers were extremely sweet, professional and attentive. So that part was all good. Now the food! So we ordered oxtails, collards and Mac and cheese along with turkey wings, yams and rice. I was shocked at the oxtail portion as well as the quality of the collards. (I eat ALOT of veggies and I swear they tasted like spinach) and if they were collards, they were completely and throughly overcooked. The Mac and cheese had flavor but was very dry. And the rice was simply rice smothered in a cup full of gravy. The wings had a strange taste to them but maybe it was the seasoning used. Yams were just ok nothing special and again, the soupy rice! (LOL) The thing is that the people who work there are soooo nice. It's hard to give this place an unkind review. But, they need to make some flavor profile upgrades. And if oxtails are too expensive, then take them off the menu or adjust your price because serving 2 oxtails and 1 micro bone in the corner does not equate to $17.00. That dish was just all wrong. We talked about whether or not we would go back and give the place a second chance....not really sure. Maybe it was a bad day? It was clear that the community loves them by the way patrons gave shout outs and genuine smiles as they entered the restaurant. The workers there certainly are friendly and just so darn sweet and attentive. I wonder if that amazing hospitality and service provides shade for some of the issues with taste, portion and price. I would probably recommend Porters mildly only because it is a neighborhood soul food spot, working to cater to the community. But a few tweaks are necessary.

You order at the end, and find a seat. Your name is called and you pick up at the side counter. The dining area has plenty of seating, a private room looks available to reserve? Dining area & restrooms are bright, clean and inviting. My brother ordered fried fish with a chicken wing,, cabbage and sweet potatoes. He loved the fish & chicken- well seasoned without feeling your blood pressure rise as you indulged- LOL. The sides were good. I did the smothered porkchops - WOW, best that I have had - really enjoyed the main entrée and my sides (greens, black-eye peas). Both meals came with cornbread (another option was a biscuit). I have to say the food, the Staff and the establishment has been my best taste of southern cooking in the DMV area. I ordered chicken wings (6) to go for wife & I to enjoy later. Definitely worth a visit, we will be back - The smothered chops are calling me already. Lunch for two with a take home order of wings & 2 deserts plus tip was around $100.

    Been to the old location…read more Been to the new location. I don't get the hype. The food is basic at best. The fish (catfish and croaker) always tastes like it's been fried in grease that needs changing. There's no flavor profile in the food which is weird for a soul-food restaurant. The mixed veggies were absolutely disgusting-- gave them back. I paid $65 for fried catfish with two sides, fried croaker with two sides, a cookie and two drinks---and sadly, the only thing that was sort of worth it was the cornbread, but it tastes like it has coconut in it. I hate coconut.

According to Kimberly, our wonderful…read morehostess, Forge sources many of its products from local farms and gives traditional Southern dishes an innovative twist. Three of us met there for lunch today, and it was delicious. Two of us had the Chicken and Waffles: thick, tender waffles topped with beautifully seasoned fried chicken thighs, then doused tableside by Kimberly with house-made maple-jalapeño syrup. Melting butter and scattered pecans added just the right crunch and richness. I also tried the blue corn grits--creamy, savory, and delicious. Our third guest had the Eggs Benedict with collard greens: perfectly poached eggs, silky hollandaise, and greens that were absolutely "grandma good." Drinks included a great sangria and spicy Bloody Marys, and dessert was carrot cake with homemade vanilla ice cream--golden yellow, egg-rich, custardy, and speckled with real vanilla. Great service, casual ambiance, and down-home, chef-cooked food with a touch of grandma's magic. Definitely recommend.

    I've been here many times and the food is phenomenal. The bartenders are always phenomenal…read more But, if I'm going to pay $48 for an entrée, I don't need to see some patron in there with a wifebeater, butt crackhanging out, underwear hanging out, and jogging shorts while talking on speakerphone on his cell phone. Why is there not a dress code? It ruined my entire evening with my date. Good food can only last so far when the ambience stinks. Speaks volumes about who they cater to. It's very loud in there. And, the ambience and decor is cafeteria like. The food is good. The service is good. But why they don't have some form code is beyond me.
