Hear from our valued guests
This was my first time here. My daughter brought me. We sat outside and the atmosphere was very nice. Our waitress was super nice and friendly and checked on us often to refill our drinks. I got the chicken fried steak lunch portion with mashed potatoes and green beans and it was just the perfect amount. I will definitely come back! This place was fantastic!
..very good place to eat, I've been before with my brother, took my sister this last time, she had breakfast & ihad lunch, i will be going back again..
Visited 8-9-25 We didnt know WHAT to expect, but it was all good. Welcomed as soon as we walked in, sat where we wanted, it wasn't busy, and waitresses were helping each other out. Fried pickles were very very crispy, were kinda salty, but the hot sauce took some of that away. I got the catfish and shrimp basket, with onion rings,hush puppies, and corn. Fried fish and grilled shrimp, both had an amazing taste. Onion rings were amazing, but maybe could have been fried a little longer. Wife had chicken fried chicken, cucumber salad,and potatoes and rolls (soft and delicious) Daughter had a club sammich with fries, she said it was good.. If I see on the menu anything "buffalo" i have to try the sauce. And I did get it and it didnt disappoint, it complimented the fried pickles and fish just fine.. I would definitely go back for breakfast.. Oh oh oh and for dessert I had a strawberry cheesecake and the wife had pecan pie.. 😋 😋😋😋😋😋
Excellent service. Our waitress was knowledgeable and friendly. Great food. Good price. 10/10 do recommend. On Saturdays, walk from the Porch around the corner to the Farmer's Market.
Our waitress, Marianne, was very attentive and kind to us. The food was also delicious, seasoned well, and didn't take long at all to reach our table. If you're looking for a very old-school feeling restaurant with delicious, affordable food, and even better service, check this place out! Would definitely come back.
Really enjoyed my experience here. Walked in on a mid Sunday morning, place was packed, but I was sat and served within minutes. Loved the small town/southern hospitality vibes. Food indeed tastes homemade, very family oriented place, staff is very friendly and accommodating. Would definitely return and recommend to friends.
What a great breakfast! Great service, great coffee, even better omelets. They even have egg whites for a small unchangeable. I had a build your own omelet with egg whites, mushrooms, spinach, swiss and ground sausage. It was loaded. It comes with choice of potatoes or fruit and toast, biscuit or pancake. Yummy and very filling. The unsweet tea is good too and she kept my glass full. The fruit cup was plentiful too. This seems to be the place locals flock to and on most Saturdays, there's a farmers market nearby.
From the moment I walked in, the restaurant felt warm and welcoming with a true home-style atmosphere. The sweet tea was excellent, the chicken-fried steak was clearly made from scratch, and the eggs were fresh and real. A great experience overall
This was my first time at The Porch. I enjoyed the home style layout with strategically located TV sets so that they did not overtake table conversation. There were plenty of staff to fulfill all my dining needs. I ordered a vegetable omelette with wheat toast and hash browns. It was a very tasty meal. I was surprised at the generous serving size and took a quarter of it home. I thought the prices were very reasonable. Plenty of parking with handicap ramp available. Go check it out.
The porch is an amazing place to eat. We went there for lunch. I had steak and eggs. Sonia and omelette and Jakob the chicken tenders. The food was great. The service was even better. If you find yourself down at the Burleson Plaza stop for a meal. It is worth every penny you spend. While I was there I was reminded of the restaurant from the John Wayne movie, who shot liberty valance.
