I've only been there 3 times and everytime it's been outstanding! The food is so delicious and has such unique flavors! They have a large wine selection, and the menu has all different types of food! My favorite two entrees I've had was the halibut with a tomato risotto and beef tenderloin with lobster butter! Their tuna tartare starter is amazing as well! Definitely recommend for a date night, a family dinner, or if you're just visiting the area!

This restaurant has a very nice outdoor area. We got there when it was light out and finished up when it was dark & all the decorative lights were on. It was a really nice atmosphere. 5 stars there. The food was a mixed bag. If I was scoring just on the steak and salads it would be 5 stars. We got the "STEAK KNIFE SOUTHERN WEDGE SALAD” and the "FARMER'S MARKET" SALAD. Both were delicious. For our entrees we got the USDA PRIME ANGUS BEEF RIB EYE STEAK 16 0z with the buttermilk-chive mashed potatoes, drunken mushrooms with sautéed spinach, pink peppercorn-horseradish crème option and the Pan-seared NC GROUPER with the ~ shrimp & crawfish succotash, Southern style stone-ground grits, pimento cheese butter option. The steak was an outstanding cut of meat, seasoned and cooked perfect. The mashed potatoes were lackluster. Seems like they needed more butter, salt and cream. The mushrooms and spinach were delicious. As for the grouper, the piece of fish came out not all in one piece. There was a large part on the edge of the bowl and over cooked.(see my pics) It was seasoned well but kinda disappointing. The grits were clumpy/dry. The succotash had one shrimp and I did not see any crawfish. I could have done without the grits and succotash. Just not executed very well.
As for the service our waitress was extremely nice but the service was not very good. We ordered an unsweet tea and an old fashion mixed drink. The old fashion took a while to come out. The tea came out sweet the first go around. During the meal I ended up with no tea and waited for a refill a couple times. The wait for our entrees after the salads was way to long. From the time we sat down, ordered, had our salads and then received our entrees one hour 15min had gone by. We sat at 6:30. We finished our meal with no dessert at 8:10pm. Everything just seemed very slow. We enjoyed the atmosphere so it was not a big deal but not ideal. I would go back and try it again but probably make different choices.

This was our first time visiting and I have to say I’m very impressed with this restaurant. Food was phenomenal and their service was excellent l. Mr Calvin was such a darling! He made us feel at home. He took his time and explained dishes we were interested in. The food was served fresh and in a perfect timely manner. I highly recommend and we will definitely be back.

We took our dog to a blessing of the animals service and afterwards decided to enjoy dinner outside at Portland. The staff was so gracious with us having our poodle at dinner! Brought us water in a to go container for him! The food was delicious! We had baked oysters and the crab cake over limas!

This place has been important to my family for years. My first visit was for my aunt and uncle's wedding reception more than 15 years ago. I returned many times over the years to enjoy the fantastic food and even better service. This past year, I decided to have my own wedding reception here. The food is great but it is the service that keeps me and my family coming back. Its as well run as any place I have ever been and it shows up in the little things, the details. I was just there again a couple of weeks ago and I cant wait until next time!

Perfectly grilled to medium rare ribeyes, thoroughly seasoned and extremely tender. Uniquely paired with lobster butter and the classic grilled asparagus and smashed fingerling potatoes. Great indoor and outdoor atmosphere and excellent service. Very memorable place.

Delicious food.. service was awesome. Well the second time was just as good or better then the first. The steak was like butter. I just loved the peach bread pudding which was new on the menu.. service was great!!

Fabulous in every way. Service by Calvin & Adrienne was flawless---friendly, knowledgeable & not hurried at all. Food was prepared and plated with full attention to detail. Chilean Sea Bass ordered by both of us----but 2 different yet equally delicious preparations. Dessert of chocolate chess pie and coconut cake was Heavenly! And if you love wine and cocktails, you cannot beat their wine, liquor and cordial list. Our 1st visit on a friend's recommendation & we will be back for sure!

I forgot to make a post for this restaurant, I came here to celebrate my birthday around 9 months ago. I made a reservation, and when I walked inside, everyone was so friendly I got many compliments on my dress. I decided that I wanted to sit outside since the weather was lovely, but there was too many flies (not the restaurant fault of course) and I didn't want to risk one flying onto my food so eventually I asked to be moved inside. The "Vietnamese Style" Wagu Beef Meatballs with Peanut noodles wasn't that good.. I felt bad for asking for something else (I ended up getting the egg rolls, I ate it too quickly so I don't have any photos but I recommend that!) And my waiter was very accommodating, he apologized and I apologized back because I didn't want to offend anyone. I also got the duck, coconut rice, red cabbage, wild boar sausage, and broccoli as the main dish. I enjoyed it a lot. It was my first time trying duck, and I didn't get any dessert, but my overall experience was pleasant for my first time at Port Land Grille, I would come back again.
