   Solid food and a menu with a lot of choices. The skillet cornbread is amazing! Our entrees were good...a bit salty, but good. The service was excellent.

   The whole table enjoyed their food. I hand the blackened shrimp salad. We shared Beignets were delicious and perfectly fried. Our server was attentive, hilarious and made our day! We will definitely come back.

   We love the menu at The Porch... and the food is great too! The noise level (11 am Saturday brunch) was too much for us with hearing problems. Our service people were outstanding.

   The brisket was so tough we could hardly chew it so the meatloaf was also tough to chew. The shrimp were small and chewy with very little flavor. The chicken and waffles was the only dish, of 6, that would bring us back.

    Thumbs Down - we drove from the Bay Area to spend a day in Sacramento for "Ladies - Brunch & Fun"! The chicken with the waffle was dry and over cooked, side of bacon was undercooked - sent back, but the bacon - never returned, pancake was doughy and scramble (eggs & avacado) the eggs didnt taste like real eggs. Our server never came back to check on us, I stopped another server with water to get my glass refilled, she stated she was sorry I had to stop her to get water, yet she filled my glass, but never asked the three (3) other people at the table if they wanted a refill of water. I'm the foodie in the group, so I'm the one who chose your restaurant, but the best meals ordered were the shrimp and grits. The Porch was consistent again when I asked the brand name of the grits. I'm still waiting for the answer. It was like we were ignored, which is odd, since we were paying customers who had reservations! I just wish "The Porch" would have told us they weren't interested in providing a delightful dining experience.
