Customer Reviews
Port Land Grille offers a refined and memorable dining experience, perfect for a special evening out. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm, upscale, and inviting—ideal for enjoying high-quality food in a relaxed but elegant setting. We started with the pimiento cheese appetizer, which was a flavorful and comforting Southern classic, elevated with finesse. It was creamy, tangy, and paired well with the cracker and accompaniments. For our entrees, we had the Mahi Mahi, Prime Ribeye, Grouper, and Lamb. Each dish was expertly prepared and beautifully plated. The Mahi Mahi was fresh and flaky, complemented by delicious potatoes. The Prime Ribeye was incredibly tender and full of bold, rich flavor—a true standout. The Grouper was delicate, perfectly cooked, and paired with corn an
I rarely share reviews unless I feel strongly about something. We were looking to celebrate a special occasion somewhere nice and decided to give this place a try even though we have never really heard much about it. This place was AMAZING. Puts some of the other “popular” restaurants to shame!! From the quick and friendly service, ambiance, the food and drinks, not one thing we experienced or ate was average or ordinary whatsoever. My personal highlights were the sauce paired with the beef tenderloin, the twice baked potato, and the chocolate chess pie! I have no clue why this place isn’t talked about more, we definitely will be back!!
Enjoyable dinner on a busy evening. Food was delicious and came out surprisingly fast, so fast that it didn't sync with bar service. We ordered cocktails and Redneck Eggrolls to start, and they came out amazingly fast, so fast that our cocktails arrived much later. Our entrees also came out pretty quickly, again so fast they beat the wine, but we still had our cocktails. Dinner was very good, ribeye and scallops special. Coconut cake for dessert was also tasty. Service was friendly and efficient, but with that speed, we were finishing our wine as the check came. It all felt a bit rushed. 5 stars for food, but dissapointed with inability to pace and sync service. Prices points on high side. Cocktails for 2, shared appetizer, entrees, a glass of wine each and shared dessert and tip was $280
Our server Calvin gave us excellent service and amazing attention and care very warm and welcoming making us feel special with upscale vibes. Crab cake was delicious and well prepared. The wedge salad was a bit bland the menu claimed the blue cheese was chunky but it was quite smooth and a bit watered down and the lettuce paired was also pretty bland even for lettuce. The croutons tasted stale so probably skip the salads for the appetizers which was excellent. The drinks are delicious but they do degrade in quality as the bartenders get busier. My first drink at opening was beautiful and had amazing garnish presentation but as the night went on the glass shape changed and the garnish became a bit more rushed being thrown into the glass rather than presented with a cocktail stick or deli
Every course was superb. Started with the pimento cheese and the pickled cucumber and pepper jelly was a nice addition. The tuna appetizer was light and yummy. The filet was cooked perfectly and the twice baked potato was super good. The Key Lime Pie did not disappoint but the chocolate chess pie was unbelievable!!!
