    Wow—this place is rare in the best way possible! The steak? Absolute perfection. The tuna? Melt-in-your-mouth incredible. The calamari? Crispy, tender, and packed with flavor. And the asparagus? So good it could turn a carnivore green! No wonder this is the restaurant owner’s favorite spot—if great steak is the measure of success, this place is well done. Our waiter, with over six years under his belt, wasn’t just knowledgeable—he was like a walking, talking Michelin guide. Highly recommend for an unforgettable meal! 🔥🥩🍷

    Celebrated my birthday with my girlfriends at Port Bistro on a Sunday Afternoon. The place was pretty much empty which was nice but the food (enjoyed the Caesar wrap and sweet potato fries) and drinks (recommend the lemoncello spritz) were pretty good! Our server was amazing - friendly and attentive. Website listed live music which didn’t happen but for the better as we got to enjoy our conversations without having to yell over noise.
