Port Cafe is a hidden gem! Can't believe we just found out about this place. Someone we know told my mom and I about Port Cafe. It's basically a Portuguese sports bar that serves a wide variety of dishes. The portions are enormous.
Ordered a half size bottle of red Portuguese wine. I'm not a huge red wine drinker, but this wine was pretty good. It was $12 for a half sized bottle, which we got about 3 glasses from! We then started off our meal with the grilled shrimp in lemon butter sauce. The shrimp were awesome! It was $8.95 and came with 6 decent sized shrimp. For our entrees, my mom had a piece of grilled salmon with grilled veggies (broccoli & carrots) and she loved her fish! I ordered the shell steak medium rare with veggies as well. My steak was AWESOME and cooked perfectly! Both entrees also came with boiled potatoes, but they were able to substitute side salads instead! My entree came to $17 for a steak! The prices are very reasonable for the portion sizes and quality of the food.
So glad we found this new hidden gem! Cant wait to go back again! One thing to mention is the service is a bit slow…but worth the wait. I saw some people having the linguini with clams dish and it looked excellent. Definitely something I'll need to try next time.
This place is the bomb…or better stated it was hit by a bomb! Upon entering on a 3 degree Saturday night, our first reaction was to turn around and leave…couldn't be the same place the Yelp reviews referred to….well we stayed …found a table and looked around at the lack of ambiance and the bar crowd whooping it up over the games on tv. This is a local Portugese Bar that serves food as an after thought. Had to keep coats on due to heat not being on..was ice cold in there!
Ordered two Stella Beers on tap. Tasted them and they were skunky spoiled taste. Sent them back and got Bud Lite…better but not much..
For appys we ordered Sautéed Shrimp in garlic butter sauce..was good with lots of sauce to dip bread. Also got Caesars salad..crunchy lettuce drenched in sauce…could have been prepared better!
For mains we went with Prime Rib for Bonnie and the special Mixed Seafood in garlic sauce over pasta for me. When they brought out the Prime Rib it looked like a rib steak on the bone….tasted more like steak then PR. The Portuguese chips on the plate were saturated with oil and not good to eat. My combo seafood was also ok…had tiny mussels, scallops the size of a pencil eraser. A few clams and several shrimp….pasta and sauce were good.
Nothing was outstanding or even really good. A real killer was the price of a glass of soda $3.50…honest!
I appreciate a dive bar but this place really surprised us…should have followed first instinct and turned around and left….
