My fave restaurant in Sacramento! I legit drive up here 3-4 times a year JUST to eat at The Porch, and get tiki drinks at the Jungle Bird! We always order the Grilled Brie (GF toast available, whoo-hoo) and Shrimp and Grits. If it's a night for drinks, the punch bowl is killer to share. Desserts are delish, staff is always amazing! I even did a bday brunch here one year, followed by the tiki boat (highly recommend!) Street parking, but I always find some easily. read more

Love love love this place. Service is A1 always. However, Domingo is by far my favorite employee. He is so attentive and on top of it. He goes above and beyond. I will be coming back for the food and because of Domingo. We ordered beignets and biscuits. I recommend both but the biscuits are my favorite with the honey butter that comes with it. I got the Porch Mary Bloody Mary and it was good wish it came with a slice of bacon though. For my entree I ordered the ham Benedict. It's not my first time here and definitely won't be my last. Definitely great spot with great vibes and filling bomb food. I didn't get any pictures of my food because it was so good that I just dug in. read more

The Porch - Porch Mary Bloody Mary & brown sugar latte - Southern Near Me - Sacramento, California

Brunch today was at The Porch which is a Southern brunch right in Midtown Sacramento. The staff was warm and welcoming. We were seated outside which was lovely, especially given the weather and the slight breeze. I appreciate that they offer an option for reservations. Many brunch places do not do those nowadays, which I hate. Every brunch requires a coffee. I appreciate that they do lattes here, rather than just hot or iced coffees. They had some unique syrups, such as bourbon caramel and praline. The syrups were on the more subtle side, which some people prefer. I am not one of those people, but it was a good latte for a breakfast/ brunch spot. I wish there was more ice tho.  The skillet cornbread with sharp cheddar, creamed corn & garlic, honey butter & house made seasonal jam on the side was a great starter dish. I enjoyed the garlic and cheese. The temperature/ toastiness of this was yummy.  We couldn't decide between the cornbread and the sticky bun, so the only obvious solution was to order both. The topping of the sticky bun was delicious. It was almost pecan pie adjacent. read more

Came down this week for the first after hearing good reviews about this place and was honestly pretty disappointed on what we had and the experience as a whole. Do make sure to make reservations before coming in, luckily a table opened up and the host was able to get us seated promptly. The seats we were given were near the bar and it was only the one bartender taking care of his bar and the tables which lead to not having the best service. Again we get it was the bartenders area but you would think since it's the weekend you would have two bartenders working that area. When it comes to the food, my wife's brisket Benedict was pretty solid nothing crazy but my meal was probably the worst one.... When I hear the words " anything scramble" i think of a bunch of ingredients mixed together as a scramble. This was more of just scrambled eggs with some fried avocados on top. These breakfast "potatoes" were also dissatisfying and flavorless. I've worked in the restaurant business and can tell you that I hated when people sent plates back so I'm not one to send my plates back and make complaints, but this one was very close to me breaking that personal rule. Personally I don't think I'll ever come back at least not for their breakfast hours. read more

The Porch - Avocado Scramble - Southern Near Me - Sacramento, California

Went on a Saturday for brunch with three other people and when I asked the wait time, the host took awhile to seat us, even though I said we were ok with outside. At the end, we ended up seating outside and all the time wasted could have been to help other people. Our server was friendly, but since we were outside she would take awhile to come outside. The meatloaf was a big plate and my husband could not finish it. He did say it was a bit salty. The shrimp and grits were great (would recommend). My son's chicken tenders were great as well and looked homemade and not like it came from a frozen bag. There is paid parking around the area. It was a 60 degree day but with jackets on, the weather felt amazing. When we had stepped into the restaurant it had felt too stuffy, so I am glad we got to seat outside. read more

3.5 stars, rounding up in fairness. Food was a solid 4, portions were amazing. Fried chicken, meatloaf and catfish were above average, your house made hot sauce was fire. Wait staff were very accommodating and polite, but for one thing: you guys need to bus your tables! Every table, and I mean EVERY table, including our party of 10, had piled plates on the table, even after desserts and coffees were served. Literally NOTHING was bussed after meals and desserts were finished. You guys weren't that busy (8:30 pm), you were doing sidework, napkin/silverware rollups next to the kitchen. That's cool if you choose not to employ busser staff, I guess...but it wouldn't be too much to require wait staff to remove plates before desserts or even before patrons get up to leave. That didn't happen in the entire restaurant. Priority should be customer experience, THEN knock out your sidework. I've had many years of restaurant experience, so I'm not just blowing smoke. Table maintenance would have earned you guys an extra star. You guys address that issue and I'll be back. read more

The Porch - Catfish & Jambalaya, good - Southern Near Me - Sacramento, California

First of all, this is not JUST a brunch spot. They do dinner as well! I ate at the bar and had a lovely time with the bartender, Corbett, who made amazing drinks!! True craftsmanship! Ask him for his off menu drink, the Wingman. It was phenomenal! For food I ordered the fried green tomatoes, which were the best I ever had!! And I love me a fried green tomato! I also ordered the brisket meatloaf with mashed potatoes and gravy. It was scrumptious!! So flavorful and soul satisfying!! I also had fun getting to know the manager, Shelby! The crew at Porch created such a friendly and fun environment especially as I was dining alone, it was nice to share laughs and convo with them! I can't wait to go back with my family and try their gumbo or maybe the jambalaya!!! read more

I hadn't been to The Porch in years, so I thought to take my best friend here since she was visiting from out of town and rarely gets to eat Southern-inspired dishes. To start, the beignets caught her eye on Yelp, so we didn't hesitate to order this sweet treat for starters. What's more are the fresh and sweet berries, pineapple, and oranges were perfectly paired with these beignets that were not overly sweet and not fully covered in powdered sugar. Our server was so easy to chat with and took time to answer our questions and talk about the menu. We were convinced to order the brisket and biscuit and all I can say is WOW. As soon as we took a bite of the brisket with the biscuit, the flavors popped in our mouth! We thanked our server for giving a high recommendation for this dish. I have enjoyed my share of shrimp and grits in different restaurants in different cities because it is one of my fav Southern dishes to eat. Hands down, their shrimp and grits is now in my top five fav! I added a sunny side up egg, so this, plus the combo of the gulf shrimp with bacon, cheese, diced tomatoes, green onions, with porch bbq sauce, truly gave me Southern brunch comfort. I decided to add tots and I'm so happy I did because their tots are extra crispy, making the tots a scrumptious addition to this mouthwatering dish! I love the Mardi Gras theme of this restaurant and it brought back memories from when friends and I ate here often many years ago. I'm glad to be back and 'hope to return to try their other menu items and drinks, like happy hour, sooner than later! read more

So many ups and downs at this place. We loved the Southern charm/ambiance and the attentive wait staff, but the food was kinda all over the place. Offerings - Biscuits and Gravy: Rather basic and a bit on the salty side. The biscuits were quite dense. Also, breakfast potatoes here translated to a baked potato with a bit of Parmesan on top. - Shrimp Po Boy: This was amazing and we would definitely come back for this. The shrimp was fried perfectly and we loved the cornmeal batter. Fries were good also. - Chicken and Waffles: the fried chicken was good and the quantity that came was amazing. So much food. The waffle was pretty basic and great with maple syrup. - Free Birthday Brownie: Do not even attempt to eat this. We learned that even free things come at a cost. This was a horrid, crumbly mess that had nothing going for it. No flavor, no texture at all. read more

I've been to The Porch before for a Dine Downtown and the food was much better then. Perhaps we caught them an off night, or maybe the regular chef was MIA, but they were out of half the menu items for the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge, which was the reason we came. No Hushpuppy Veggies. No Cajun Baba Ghanoush. No Vegan Gumbo. The Blackened Maitake Mushroom Pasta I ordered also had substituted ingredients and fell flat on flavor. A shame for $23. That said, the service was fantastic and so were the vegan Cajun fried beets we ordered off the regular menu. The Banana Beignets, however, were a complete letdown of dense fried dough that tasted nothing of banana. Luckily the $17 espresso martini that I confirmed was dairy-free was heavenly. While I appreciate that The Porch has vegan-friendly items and participates in the October Challenge, this was a pricey letdown. I really hope they do better next year. read more

Came here to end a busy work week and get some yummy food on a rainy day! We came in for lunch and were seated right away. We were given brunch and cocktail menus along with the regular menu. It was a bit of a chilly day and the front door kept swinging open sending a chile to where we were sitting but other than that the decor was warm and cozy with farm animal paintings and statues and wood chairs. The service was great we even had some dumb questions about the Bloody Mary mix we were guessing what the ingredients were and they answered with smiles on their faces lol The shrimp po boy is great! And they were accommodating to my special requests to make the vegan bowl not vegan anymore. Overall it was a nice time out on a rainy day! read more

I came in for a pick up order, and they had told me that it was only going to take 15-20 minutes. All I ordered was a burger and fries to go. And it took them 35 minutes to get to my order. Other people came in to sit down and eat and their food was given to them quicker than mine. If I had ordered before the people coming in shouldn't I get my food first? It was my first time trying the porch too. Very disappointing. read more

Amazing! First time here. The food was delicious. Our waiter made some great suggestions. We tried the beignets. Delicious! And they were shaped like little piggies I ordered the berries French toast. The whip cream on top was so good. There was a sweet fruit puree served with it tasted so good. My husband had the chicken waffles. The batter on the chicken was sweet and amazing. I would recommend coming here. Very affordable and a nice scenery. read more

Shelby, and Corbett are both amazing bartenders and make our time there very enjoyable, also make delicious craft cocktails. I can't say enough about the Porch.

I cant rave enough about this place. The food is amazing and they made the best espresso martini I've ever had. My friend had the chicken and waffles and the chicken was so tender and juicy.

Hubby and I took the day off. We were looking for a place we haven't been before to get a light brunch. We were seated after about 5 minutes, it seemed a little busy. The space was nice and they were playing light music. We ordered after scanning the menu a few times. I couldn't decide between shrimp & grits or French toast but went with the shrimp & grits with no bacon. Hubby ordered the biscuit sandwich with bacon. We also ordered three beignets. The beignets came about after 15 minutes and our food about 30 minutes. The waiter came by and let us know there was only one cook and he was working his butt off. read more

I went to this restaurant today with my friend Cynthia for my birthday. I'm met the Kevin and Lisa, they were very friendly and explained the fresh menu. They've only been open a few months but they got a wonderful review. I understand from my friend Cynthia in the press Democrat. The food that we had ordered was delicious. I had ordered the jam on buerre and Cynthia ordered the special soup, salmon bisque and savory grain bowl with tea. The meal was fantastic and well presented. I took photos below. I had a beautiful experience here and I recommend checking this new restaurant. I'm happy that we have such a quaint spot to have a special meal. We will be back for sure. Bon appetit! read more

The waitress and waiter were all nice and fun as they made jokes serving us. You can never go wrong with mimosas and their vanilla ice coffee was great!

We came to The Porch for my friend's birthday and I was unfortunately disappointed. I ordered the Low Country Lemonade which was probably my favorite part of the meal. It came with alai vodka, blueberries, lemon juice, simple syrup, Sprite, and muddled blueberries. I thought it was a solid cocktail. For entree, I ordered the Biscuit Sandwich with Bacon. I expected it to look a little more appetizing, however as you can see from the picture, it wasn't that at all. The biscuit was broken and the presentation just looked messy. The food was okay; the biscuit was a little dry. We also ordered the Beignets to share. They were fine, although I wished they were a little fluffier. Not sure if I'd return. read more

Visited The Porch for a friend's birthday and we had a great time! The front is decorated well for Christmas and all of the staff were super friendly. We shared a half order of the beignets, which are shaped like pigs! Soo cute and tasty. The fruit was fresh and we loved the mango and raspberry compote as well. I had the shrimp po boy with sweet potato fries & a porch iced tea. The shrimp was well battered and crispy and the drinks were strong and delicious.

We came in right after the lunch rush and ordered the fried chicken and waffles along with a western salad. Although we were the only guests in the restaurant for a while, it took an unusually long time for our food to come out. It felt like the focus was on cleaning up after the rush and our order may have been overlooked. When the food arrived, the chicken was overcooked and cold, the waffle was soggy, and the fries were also soggy. The salad was okay, but overall both the food and service seemed to lack care and attention. Unfortunately, based on this experience, we don't plan to return. read more

I ended up coming here around 11:30 with my family . And everything was going okay at first we had a seat and everything was just fine. The waitress Paula was so rude in my opinion... She seemed like she had an attitude while working and seemed like it was a problem that we asked for a virgin drink menu which is ridiculous. She barley came to check on us and took forever to bring us our silverware and take down our drinks. She only changed her attitude when she recived a tip that she didn't really deserve. The food was not good at all !!! My cheese grits were so hard and not normal grits. They were very clumpy and dry with little to no flavor. The fried green tomatoes tasted like they were fried in old grease. The only bright star to our vist at The Porch was Jason at the receptionest desk he was such a joy. He had a positive and attitude and was very helpful and didn't mind closing the shade for us outside. Overall I don't recommend coming here for brunch or any meal of the day. read more

I hate to do it, but I have to do it. Let's start with the pros. Fantastic chicken and waffles, chicken was really crispy and well seasoned, delicious beignets, and I loved the cornbread. Also the service staff were all really nice and comped our appetizers because of the long wait. With that said, I won't be back anytime soon. The wait was 30 mins for a table with a reservation, food was another 45 min wait, they ran out of plates and silverware, the restaurant was LOUD, had to yell across the table, just overall wasn't a great experience. Maybe this was just Sunday brunch but I thought it'd be better. Food: 4.5/5 Service: 2.5/5 Ambiance: 2/5 Marcel's foodie score: 2.8/5 read more

We came in on Sunday for Father's Day lunch. We were told it would be, "about an hour" wait. The man that was the host took our number and said he would call or text when a table was available. We had two small kids with us- but we really wanted to eat there so we walked around and tried to kill time. After 50 min, I called the restaurant to check on status whereupon I was told they had no seats for us and we could not be accommodated. We waited and killed time bc he said we would be contacted within an hour when a table was available. If he was unable to seat us, he should have just said that and we would have eaten elsewhere. read more

I made reservations on Saturday for a party of 4 on open table for a Birthday brunch . Then my friend the "Birthday girl" invited more people.

We got treated so good . Our waiter Sky was so nice and attentive. Sky did an amazing job with such a big group . Our food was amazing . I was looking forward to having the chicken but sadly I have an allergy to shellfish and I was not able to have any . I was so bummed I wish they fried them separately but I understand. I got a salad with grilled chicken which was delicious . We got a lot of appetizers to share which all were so delicious . I was not able to try the beignets either since they're fried. We had an amazing time. The service was above and beyond . The food I did try was amazing I would be back .. read more

Was invited to The Porch for a business dinner, and while I normally would not seek out Southern food, this place completely surprised me. Everything we ordered was delicious, and I would absolutely come back on my own. I started with the grilled brie, which was incredible. Honestly, I could have eaten just that and been satisfied. Someone else at the table ordered the fried tomatoes, and since it was my first time trying them, I was curious. They were crispy, flavorful, and a great introduction to something new for me. For my main entrée, I went with the catfish and jambalaya. The portion was generous enough that I had leftovers to take back to the hotel. The flavors were solid and comforting. Others at the table ordered the shrimp po' boy and the brisket meatloaf, and everything looked so good that it made me want to come back just to try more of the menu. We also shared the skillet cornbread. It was good, though a bit different from what I am used to, since I grew up on the store box version. The strawberry jam paired with it was a great touch and definitely elevated it. Someone ordered the collard greens and said they were the hit of the table, so that is already on my list for next time. The vibe definitely had a Southern feel, warm and inviting. Service was attentive, with servers refilling my sweet tea multiple times, and the food came out in a timely manner despite it being a group dinner. Overall, a great experience and a place I would recommend. read more

Ordered the Beignets which just so happened to be the best thing we tried today. I ordered the Shrimp and grits for my entree and it was pretty good, the sauce they use wasn't really to my liking but the rest of the meal was good enough to where it didn't matter too much. The worst thing about this place and is why I am giving it a 3 star rating, was the wait time. We waited for an hour to get our entrees which is just unacceptable for any establishment. Probably won't return in the future. read more

We arrived right on the dot for our 11:30 reservations on a summer Sunday morning. Party of five. We were immediately seated upon arrival. First impression was Wow, this is a loud place but we were upbeat for a nice meal. We were immediately pleasantly greeted by Dan with menus and water in tiny mason jars. Dan answered a number of questions about asssorted dishes and their ingredients. Three of us are not into southern food but as guests of our host couple, all our questions were addressed. Our appetizers, Beignets and Fried Green tomatoes arrived in about 20 minutes. The Beignets looked enticing on a generous bed of assorted fresh berries consisting of blue, black and strawberries. The Beignets were dry, though. They would have been much better if they were filled with a custard of some sort, but maybe that would have required a name change to 'Eclair'. The Fried Green Tomatoes were nicely breaded and rested on a bed of shredded and chopped lettuce, feta cheese and a spicy 'Memphis Dressing' that looked like thousand island but with a bite. Also included was a slice of bacon and a hard boiled egg. The texture of the Fried Tomatoes was nice but the tomatoes themselves tasted flat, without much flavor. Would we reorder these appetizers again? No. They didn't 'pop' or generate endorsements from us. After a long wait, the main courses arrived about 40 minutes later and at one point Dan stopped at our table to tell us that our order was now next in line to be prepared by the kitchen. We ordered two Shrimp PoBoys, one Brisket and Biscuit, one Banana Foster on French toast and one Traditional Breakfast of Waffles. The Shrimp PoBoys, one a half order and one a full order, were ordered with unsalted fries but they were coated in black pepper instead that had to be rejected. We couldn't see any size difference between the two sandwiches. One wasn't anywhere close to double the size of the other. The breaded shrimp was bland and just slightly warm. The melted cheese was hard, dry and cold, the thick bread roll was dry and couldn't be picked up and eaten without all the lettuce and shrimp squirting out. The bacon slice was overpowering. The contents of this PoBoy just aren't a great marriage with this style of roll. Would we reorder the Shrimp PoBoy? No. The guest who had Brisket and Biscuit said the BBQ sauce was very overpowering and didn't actually enhance the enjoyment of the dish. Would they reorder it? No. The guest who had the Traditional Waffles has to ask for a side of syrup as it was served with none. By the time the syrup arrived, the waffles were cold. The texture of the waffles was hard through and through. One expects crunchy outside and soft centers, but not these. They were hard and dry. Would they recommend it? No. The Banana Foster French Toast was acceptable but the banana flavor was very weak and the powerful sweetness of the dish was mostly a generic sweet flavor. Would they recommend it? No. Ambient noise level comment: Our rectangle table had the five of us seated two across from three but the two end guests diagonally across the table just four feet apart were unable to talk to each other for the entire meal due to the loud background noise. The brunch took just over two hours. The food did not hit a 'home run'. Food was either cold, hard, and ingredients didn't compliment each other. Attentive offers by the food server for ice tea and water refills were non-existent and had to be requested. Request for sweetener was ignored. The management's decision to not offer an actual lunch menu disappointed us but the fact that they were packed tells me that others approve. I guess this was the wrong restaurant for us which is not their fault. I generously give The Porch Restaurant and Bar in Sacramento two stars. read more

We had the best post graduation brunch/lunch experience here at Porch. Very close to downtown. Only little bummer here is the parking situation but today was Pride celebration + NO KINGS + UC Davis Commencement 2025 all at the same day and time so lots of police and closed off streets. The parking is street and metered and towards the back of the small restaurant and you pay thru the QR app by scanning the photo QR and punch in your license plate number just don't park in a marked reserved spot. The food here is southern not an extensive menu with pics but a small condensed menu with a variety of offerings for your southern palette. They have cheese Brie s , beignets, and chicken and waffles all very good and applauded by our party. Prices are not astronomically high either it was fine. Inside has open kitchen , cute little bar . They accommodate us a party of 9 for reservations next to the front door. It didn't seem too tight at all ,plenty of elbow room. I ordered the biscuits beef brisket eggs Benedict. Might sound funny but the 2 small potatoes they came with it were very tasty probably the best potato's I've ever had-covered with Parmesan crumbs and other seasoning , very good. Service was excellent they asked questions , refilled waters offered drinks. They do have a mandatory gratuity for parties of 6 or more I believe so be ready for that. Everyone loved their food here and it was a memorable lunch celebrating a graduate. Very kick back and enjoyable not loud at all, very safe area around the downtown perimeter. Porch even wrote the graduates name on the menu so it's little things and acts like that make our experience here special. The menu itself is a valid reason here to come back again not just for a special occasion . Thank you, Porch! *TIP The chicken and waffles dish is huge , they don't mess around with portions here read more

On Sunday, May 30th, the 5 of us, with reservations, arrived at 9:30am, (some of the first people to arrive to The Porch). We waited over an Hour and a Half for breakfast!!!!! No kidding... We reminded the Server several times, (who was trying his best,) and then we walked out! (Ask our Server, who was very nice, believe me he really tried), but the kitchen must have ignored him. They kept saying wait 10 more minutes, etc. First time it's ever happened, EVER! We'll NEVER go back to The Porch again...Terrible Service... Worst I've ever seen. read more

The Porch is a great place to have a bite to eat, gather with friends and be merry. You can make a reservation here. When we were there, there was a big party celebrating a graduation. There was also another party celebrating a birthday. This restaurant has amazing cocktails, and delicious food. I've been a few times over the years and really enjoyed each experience. This latest experience included brunch, where we shared full beignets, ordered cocktails, and chose our bite to eat. Our server, Skye M was fantastic, giving us recommendations and communicating with us about being a bartender and a server during that time. In the past, I have been to The Porch with friends, celebrating, birthdays, and I am looking forward to the future where I can go back for a date with my husband. read more

I went to The Porch for brunch during Vegan Chef Month with a party of 8. This was not my first visit, but I specifically chose this restaurant because I'm vegan and expected solid vegan options for brunch. Unfortunately, the first disappointment was finding out that the vegan menu was only available for dinner, not brunch. That was never made clear. The vegan options available on the regular brunch menu were extremely limited, which was frustrating given the occasion. Once the food arrived, it went downhill from there. The vegan food was not good at all, and surprisingly, even the non-vegans in our group were unhappy with their meals. Overall, the quality of the food has noticeably gone down. I don't know if ownership or management has changed, but this is not the same Porch I remember. With a party of 8, this was not the brunch experience we expected, and it was a major disappointment. Unfortunately, I would not return. read more
