My first time coming to this restaurant was Friday and I absolutely love it! The food and drinks were trendy and delicious! We went during the day and it wasn't too busy. Service was amazing! With the help of our awesome server Jamie we were able to try a couple different cocktails that she recommended all were so good! Definitely will recommend to friends and family! read more

I am never disappointed with the porch! Food is always great. I haven't had an item i didnt enjoy yet. And I am still exploring the menu. HOWEVER my fav is the waffle cut fries! Yum! Always enjoy the fun atmosphere and seeing our favorite server Nicole D. The porch is a must visit. read more

Such variety in the menu, they have something for everyone. Stop here today and try the apple pie dip - you won't regret it!!!

Food was great and so was the service! Our waitress Evelyn exceeded all expectations. I'll definitely be back!!

the two male bartenders that were working Saturday night at around midnight were AWFUL! we asked for a drink and they made their bar back make it, who obviously has never made a drink in his life. The bar back was nice...not his fault that the bartender pawned his job off to him. The two bartenders were disrespectful, had a bad attitude, and didn't care about their customers. Never coming back again! read more

Jess was a great bartender & she made awesome vodka sodas!! We had a great time and enjoyed her interactions with everyone.

I've had Christina a couple times at The Porch for a server. She has great customer service and good advice on menu choices. I always ask for her when I go here! read more

We had drinks and dinner at the porch. I had the south of the border Marguerite out which was fabulous and the fried pickles were excellent as well. Logan was our server and he was a wonderful waiter! Then we had the coffee and Passport coffee is the best! read more

Logan was awesome, food was great and music was the best. Would totally comeback great atmosphere.

First time at the Porch! Great food, great beer and great service. Ask for Bruce he's a rockstar! Beer was never empty food was always warm. #bruce2020 read more

Burger was good Karma friendly staff, good atmosphere, and a nice mix of all kinds of music

Great patio vibe and friendly staff. Cocktails were delicious, great spot to watch sports outside. I'll be back.

I'l give the Porch 2 stars because it is cute but the management really needs to pull it together. First time there, TV's don't work yet . . . then don't open. Next time sitting on the patio a concrete truck shows up and pours concrete right next to patio . . . again, you are not ready to open. 3rd time, valet is full so you have to driver across 40th street to park your car. I thought that is what Valet was for . . . 3 strikes you are out for me. read more

I was visiting with my boyfriend and we drove by the porch. It looked nice from the outside so we decided to give it a shot. I ordered the salted pretzel and the Mediterranean chicken pita. Pretzel was good but they really hit it out of the park with the chicken pita. Service was great and our server was super friendly. read more

I went here yesterday and had The Porch Burger, one of the best burgers I've had in a while! This place has a great atmosphere, my friends and I didn't even notice two hour had passed while we were playing Jenga on the patio. I will definitely be coming back here next time I am in town! read more

This was my first visit to The Porch. We had ten in our party and was able to make advanced reservations, which was a good thing because the place was packed. We were seated promptly and our server, Bruce, was efficient, friendly, and competent. Eric, the manager, spent time reviewing the menu with us in detail. I dine mostly at bar and grills and expected the standard fare. And although the menu offers lots of salads and sandwiches, it was definitely not the standard fare - I had a very tasty Mediterranean Pita with a much better than average side salad. I found the prices for food and drink average for similar establishments. The wine selection is well rounded. The patrons seemed to be having a lot of fun. The ASU basketball game got a lot of attention and the dart board and shuffleboard were well used. The only issue I had was the noise level, making it difficult for our group of ten to have audible conversation. read more

Great atmosphere, great location and excellent food. Architecture is interesting but definitely nice. Fun games, comfortable seating and friendly for both adults and families. Logan our server was AWESOME!! Thank you for a fun experience! Definitely will be back. read more

Awesome atmosphere. Been here a few times. This past time has been our favorite! My husband and I sat at the bar and Paul took awesome care of us! I told him i wanted a spicy margarita and he asked how spicy... I told him spicier the better and he came back with a few other bartenders to see my reaction. It was the best spicy margarita I've ever had! He was so much fun and so personal! Awesome bartender, went to the back to grab fresh jalapeños to make my drink the way i like it! We will absolutely be back! Best marg I've ever had! Thank you Paul! read more

The food isn't that good. Kids fries came out cold and too any dogs and I would come back. Sorry!

I was greeted warmly and sat at the bar, our bartender/waitress was hailey, very personable and knew the menu inside and out . I ordered the chicken chop salad which was fantastic, came in mason jar with a pesto ranch dressing. Reminded me of cowboy Ciao chopped salad. Even had the privilege of meeting owner the legendary uncle ron ron. I will be back, great atmosphere, great service, awesome food, and ownership group read more

Great place & great vibes! Loved our waitress Christina, she is amazing! Also check out their chicken nachos! It's to die for.

My new favorite spot! I met two business associates at The Porch for lunch and what a great find. The Rueben sandwich was so good, I may go back for dinner. A welcome addition to the Valley food scene. read more

Went in on Sunday night with a large group, called to get a reservation but the weren't taking reservations for some reason but ended up getting two of the larger tables outside right in time. Servers name was Ellie or Allie and she was awesome. We had a birthday party for my wife and the porch went beyond expectations. Lots of games etc. in the long run E/Allie was spot on and we will be back!! Good luck guys! Love this bar and hope she serves us again! read more

I don't know what some of these people are talking about, my experiences were great! I've been multiple times now and love the place! Super friendly staff and the vibe is awesome. Fun games to play including a jumbo scrabble. The patio is perfect for this AZ weather right now, we sat on the cute vintage furniture, hung out with our dog while we enjoyed our drinks and apps! Music was at a good level and everything is fairly priced! If you had bad experience here I suggest you give it another shot. :) read more

Kellyn was our server, she not only was pretty she had a great personality and represented the porch very well. The food was great, service was great. I'll definitely be back. read more

The tacos were delicious and the service was awesome. We had Jessica and she was so sweet and professional.

Obviously the outdoor space is awesome! Must get the French onion dip with handcut chips. Skinny margarita was delicious! Always a plus having cute bartenders. read more

Experienced The Pourch last weekend. Enjoyed the excellent food, had the Mediterranean Feta Pocket with chips as a side, should have been the side salad. The pocket was outstanding. This is not a sports bar but a great place to enjoy any event as TV's are very much a presents and very strategically placed for a great viewing experience. The service was excellent, our waiter Bruce was very attentive. Management stopped by our table a couple of times expressing thanks for choosing The Pourch and asking how our server was taking care of us. The only down side was acoustics (not an easy place to have a conversation) and parking seemed very limited. Will definitely return as frequently as we can. read more

Paul behind the bar nailed every drink we ordered!!!! I will be back again. The food also is really good. Prices were a bit high for ordering a burger. But I'm not going complain about that. Because the atmosphere was great!!! read more

This is amazing. I've never tasted such a great porch protein. I'm bigger so they brought It in a tiny plate but It was all worth it. I'm coming back for sure read more

I literally have PTSD from this place. Don't come here after the sun has set. Food is fine. Beer is served in plastic pint glasses. The people that go there are THE WORST. Imagine a bunch of the most basic girls you can think of with their boyfriends still trying to live their frat daddy glory days. Pure amateur hour. Drunk people stumbling all over you before 9pm. Awesome. We were at a table eating when this guy at the bar kept leaning and trying to set his drink on our table for a few minutes. Finally, he fully stumbled ONTO our table. We told him to get his self together. Of course he got in my friend's face, trying to fight him. Once he saw how tall my friend was, his friends quickly jumped in to break it up. His friend explained that he was "part owner" of the bar. Uhm...what percentage are we talking here? He's a child. Imagine a bar ran by the worst people you knew from college and all their friends go there. That's The Porch. Can't these people go to Mill Ave and Old Town where they belong? Let us adults live in peace. read more

My fiance and I had driven past before and decided we would try it the next time we were on that side of town. 3 weeks ago we went on a Saturday night- we were seated right away and put in orders for drinks- the drinks came and the beer was warm- asked for a cold glass and took at least 15 minutes to get one. Food was ok- I had a rice bowl and it was decent, he had a burger that he said he's had better. He paid via credit card and we left. Two days later, his credit card company contacted him saying The Porch was trying to submit a charge for $10 more than the bill. Mind you, we're very generous tippers and left a decent tip with the bill, but they tried for more. He called and spoke to a gentleman who stated he would see a credit within 48 hours. 5 days later, still no credit so he called again, another guy answered the phone, took down his name and CC# and stated he submitted the credit right then- 2 days later, nothing. He ended up having to submit a dispute to the credit card company and got the credit immediately. Will never go back and will NOT recommend this place!! read more

First time here and was ONLY satisfied by the food...service and management on the other hand a BIG negative and definitely ruined the experience. On a steady to slow Thursday we received below par services. Our waitress only took the time to do bare minimum while going above and behind for 2 other tables nearby. Ask for a "SIDE" of beans and got a small ramekin of cold beans(if that is serving size it should be explained to avoid confusion and disappointment) along with some other minor mishaps. After receiving the service we received we tipped according to service, which was POOR. Now while sitting and enjoying the rest of our drinks, management had the audacity to approach our table to ask why we left the amount of tip we left. First off, that is probably the most unprofessional way to treat a table after spending money on the FOOD and to judge off a tip that we based off of service was uncalled for and definitely shouldn't be welcome in a restaurant environment. should definitely think twice about approaching the ONLY minority table there, when in fact the main FOCUS is the Customer NOT the percentage of tip the server deserved! Remind you I am a server and knows what it takes to serve and knows what is deserved. The whole situation made our table of 6 very uncomfortable and uneasy. Any guest asking a server anything shouldn't feel like they're bothering them.. not a warm welcome accompanied by bad service.. wont be there again and wouldn't recommend unless you want some good hummus and/or your white lol read more

Met a girlfriend for lunch & we were excited to try The Porch. Terrific concept-neighborhood hangout/sports bar-with fun front yard of artificial grass, retro-y red & white outdoor furniture & lawn games. Lots of tvs that hubby will like. D, a vegetarian, said she was starving and ordered 2 kinds of bruschetta & a side salad. I ordered the fig and goat cheese salad. While the plump burrata w/ pesto bruschetta looked amazing, D couldn't get a knife through the rock-hard bread part. As the other bruschetta was scorched black, she didn't even try to tackle it so asked the very nice waitress to send it back. Another order came back quickly, this time not so blackened but the crust was just as impossible to bite that D was afraid she'd crack a tooth. Thankfully, that was taken off our bill. Her dinky side house salad for $5 was served in such a small little bowl that made it awkward to eat. Meanwhile, my salad had beautiful little fresh figs on a bed of greens with pickled red onions and little pea-sized lumps of white cheese that really tasted like bland feta rather than "goat cheese." Guess I was expecting larger clumps of creamy, tangy goat cheese. I know feta sometimes is made with sheep's and goat's milk, but it's not the same as "goat cheese." Size of salad & ingredients not worth the $12. Felt bad that D went away still hungry, but I'm willing to try again in the future. read more

If I could give this place zero stars, I would. It took over 30 minutes for our drinks to come (one of which was the wrong drink) and the food came out about 10 minutes apart, with another order that had been messed up. Worst of all there was zero accountability. All the employees seemed to know the service was horrible, but didn't care or do anything about it. Our first waitress handed our table off mid service because she had forgotten the entire order since she didn't bother to write it down. The manager was made aware of our issues, but didn't even bother to address our table even though we'd been told he would come over. And what did we get for this ridiculous meal that took over an hour and a half? A $180 bill for a table of 4 with two rounds of drinks and lunch. Save your time and money and don't bother checking this place out. I've worked in many hospitality environments and I'm very understanding when it comes to service, especially in a new establishment, but this place is a total joke with no excuse for the way we were treated. I'm actually angry my friends and I wasted any money here (and I've never left a Yelp review in my life-that's how ridiculous this place is). read more

My husband and I were so excited for this place to open and unfortunately, it's been a disappointment so far. The food isn't great and the service is pretty shotty. First time I went with a friend and it took 45 minutes for our dinner to come out...all we ordered was tacos and a chicken bowl. The chicken in my bowl was extremely over cooked. It was actually hard to cut it was so tough. Second time at the restaurant, my order was wrong and my hubby's "hand breaded" chicken tenders tasted more like frozen chicken fingers. He said the chicken tenders at McDonald's are way better and much cheaper. When my correct order arrived, it was pretty bland (med chicken wrap). No flavor and the sweet potato fries were so fried that they were really too crispy and lacked flavor. Once my correct order came out, our bartender disappeared so I wasn't able to ask for any hot sauce to give the wrap some flavor. There is so much potential here but unfortunately it's falling short. Hopefully it will get better. Also, the music is really, really loud so having a conversation is tough. I do hope they can make some changes to their quality of food and service. read more

My wife and I were watching this place going up in the neighborhood and were excited to give it a try on a Wednesday evening last week. There really is a lot of bar-and-edibles competition in this neighborhood, so we figured it was worth checking to see what makes this place worth choosing over others. My first clue that there would be difficulty was the parking. There isn't any free parking available on the property, unless you want to valet park and pay a guy to put your car six steps away where you could've parked it yourself. They have a huge lot on the side and in back, you just can't use it without the valet trap. C'mon, this is a neighborhood bar in Arcadia, not the Ocean Club in Scottsdale, so why can't we spend our drink money on, er, drinks f'rinstance, instead of a guy to do what I could do for free? Next was the hostess offering to seat us at a small table right by the front door. Really? You have indoor and outdoor seating all over the place and you want to sit guests where they can stick out their leg and kick the hostess podium and be shoulder to shoulder with everyone who enters and exits for an entire meal? We ended up with a table 10 feet from the door instead of 3 feet away. The service was not nearly as bad as written up here by others. But the menu was small and uninspiring. Now I NEVER have trouble deciding what to order, but I went through both sides of the menu 5 times and still didn't see anything terribly exciting that stood out. My wife got a salad for $12 and I got the poke bowl for $18. RIP OFF!!! The portions were smaller than lunch entrees and left us both wanting. Two rounds of $10 drinks each (small, mostly ice, gone in 2 seconds), and we were at $75 with tax on the bill and still hungry. I don't like to leave a restaurant hungry and I wasn't even starving when I walked in. I also don't like feeling that I got no value for the money. No Joke: I stopped at Jack In The Box on the way home for a Monster Taco that filled up the space in my tummy that The Porch left cold. Yes Joke: that this place will still be in business in 6 months unless huge changes are made to make it fit with this neighborhood and not haughty West Los Angeles. read more

After seeing the fantastic retro sign and open air seating, I was excited to go to The Porch. We went on a Sunday afternoon, and the weather was perfect for sitting outdoors. The place wasn't overly crowded, and we had our pick of tables. Our server was very friendly and had a great personality, but disappeared once we were served food. The pros: the outdoor area is nice, and a decent place for an afternoon beer. It is along Indian School Rd however, so when motorcycles go by, it is pretty loud. The negs: beyond the retro-themed sign and motel chairs, the place is more of a bro sports bar (if you are thinking it will be more like an Upward Projects or Genuine Concepts restaurant, forget about it). Inside has a few retro fixtures and yellow booths, but the main focal attraction is the huge bar in the middle of the hyper-air-conditioned room. Not only does the retro-theme fall short, the menu and food leave a lot to be desired. The menu selections are uninspired and pricey. My companion had a sloppy joe, which he enjoyed. Not being a meat eater and not in the mood for a salad, I selected the Poke Bowl. For $15 I received an anticlimatic bowl of flavorless white rice, a scattering of tuna, some chopped up cucumber, and some avocado. Knowing what I know now, I would have stopped by one of the countless poke restaurants in the area before going to the Porch, and spent my $ more wisely. If you go to the Porch, go to hang out with your friends to have some cocktails in the outdoor area. Don't bother with the food. read more

i have never written a bad review in my life but feel this so warrants one. i went to the porch on indian school tonight for dinner. we sat at the bar and they acted like we were bothering them. the bartender, who turned out to be the bar manager was not friendly and made our drinks wrong. we asked for one to be corrected, and she was not apologetic. we ordered food and our food came out wrong. they acted like we were troubling them. my water cup was empty and could not get their attention because she and another worker behind the bar were on their phones. no one ever asked how our food was or checked back with us. after paying the bill i walked to the front desk and asked for a manager. a very young girl claimed to be the manager. she rolled her eyes at us when we voiced our opinion. i asked her name ane she said her name is "somer", spelled s o m e r. yes, she spelled it out! she brought the "bar manager" over, who was our server, and when we voiced our concerns,, she also rolled her eyes at us. very condecsending and rude. when i told her of our concerns she said "my bad" and rolled her eyes. we asked for name of owner and refused to say their name. the gm also refused to come speak to us. his name is vince. read more

I live right down the road from Porch and have been seeing the construction over the past few months. Today I noticed they were open, so my colleague and myself decided to stop in for lunch. Great decision. We started off with the shrimp ceviche. It was super fresh and had just the right amount of kick with the peppers. My colleague had a mason jar salad which she enjoyed, but the real winner was the Ahi Poke I had. The tuna had that deep red color, meaning it was super fresh. The sticky rice was prepared perfectly, and all of the toppings were fresh and delicious. I had to go back to work, so I wasn't able to enjoy their extensive beer selection. I counted 16 taps, about half of them are some of my favorite beers so I see myself coming in for quite a few happy hours in the future. Jess and Allie were spectacular startenders, hope to see them in the future! This is a great addition to Arcadia, glad I'm in walking distance! read more
