    We had peanut soup for starter and then shrimp and grits, mushroom flatbread, jambalaya and BLT with green tomatoes. Everything was delicious. Our server Alex was great. Very accommodating and super friendly. A great lunch despite the restaurant being very busy.

    From the point of arrival throughout the entire dining experience, everything was perfect! The House manager sat us promptly and offered complimentary champagne. The food was amazing, and our waitress was awesome- she was professional, knowledgeable, offered great recommendations, and was attentive throughout the evening. We tried 4 different appetizers and different entrees. Everyone enjoyed their food and the ambiance with music in the background made it a great experience! A $600+ bill- would gladly do it again! You definitely get what you pay for here.

    This was the first time we came to the restaurant for breakfast. It was delicious! My sister and I ordered the Vanilla French Toast and we both loved them an almost finished eating them. She did order some bacon and it was cooked perfectly too. Our brother ordered the Breakfast Club Sandwich and he loved his meal too! It was a great day at the Breakfast Club! We will definitely go back to eat!

    We had a business dinner at Laporta's and it was a big success. Our server, Denise, was very accommodating and professional, and the food was excellent! There were eight people in our party and everyone raved about how delicious their meals were. About halfway through our dinner, the piano player started playing, and this added a nice touch to the ambience of the restaurant. I highly recommend Laporta's.
