User Reviews

Our servers were plenty friendly and attentive to us. From giving us a heads up on the daily specials to checking up on our opinions of the food, these workers displayed excellent customer service. The atmosphere inside reminded me of a barbecue restaurant I used to eat at a while ago. Only this place looked more modern. I was important at how many different TVs were hung up on each wall. It didn’t take too long for our food to be served. I ordered the BBQ Burger and Sweet Potato Fries. I found the burger to be excellent; the burger was juicy and tender, the bacon was perfectly crispy, and the barbecue sauce was a fine balance of sweet and savory. As for the sweet potato fries, the one detail that kept them from being perfect was the brown sugar sprinkled on top. It made the side dish too sweet for my taste. Otherwise, they were crispy and perfectly browned. None of them were dry. The normal fries weren’t very crispy by comparison. The pickle spears served were fresh and crisp. Some restaurants that have served pickle spears usually couldn’t reach this level of quality. Overall, I found this to be a solid choice for dinner.

Very very good spot for a Sunday meal, there were tons of ppl there, but mostly playing beach vb outside, so plenty of seating available inside. The food was awesome, and the fries were definitely in my top 5. Staff was friendly and I was overall very impressed. I will definitely be coming back the next time we're in the area

I stumbled upon this gem in one of my frequent visits to Omaha. I'm from Des Moines so I'm happy we found a local, delicious place to eat in Council Bluffs! The first time we came we got the Mac & Steak and it is so delicious! I have been back several times and I get that every time! I did try the white chicken chili soup the first time I went but wasn't really a fan. However, the Steak and Mac is so good that we have even brought friends and family from Des Moines to try! Service is always friendly and tables are nice and clean. The bathrooms always seem decent when I'm there and they even provide feminine products, which I think is great! You should definitely give this locally owned, amazing place a try!

The Porch was a delicious lunch choice! Had a side of macaroni as I had heard it was amazing -- they have MANY choices for flavor but the side alone was awesome. I also ordered the Avocado Sandi and it was also great-- full of flavors and texture that you can't pass up!

I met a friend for lunch on a Saturday (we both live an hour away from CB so it was a great mid-point spot). I ordered the Steak Bites as a meal and savored every tender bite. She ordered the Taco Salad (it was a little bit “meh”). I included a side of Sweet Potato Fries with cinnamon and sugar, which were to die for! The VERY next day a couple of friends and I drove back to CB to the casinos. I suggested The Porch for dinner and they LOVED it! I ate every last bite of my Bacon Blue Burger (I just HAD to get the Sweet Potato Fries again!) and my friend enjoyed her Mexican Wrap very much! Service was perfect, prices were fair, bathroom was clean and food was a 10/10! Couldn’t ask for more! I’ll definitely be back!

We enjoy the food and the service at The Porch. The blue burger, chicken bacon ranch wrap, and the pizza are all very good. I had a tenderloin this past visit. It is legit. It is tender and lightly breaded. It is NOT the size of a dinner plate like others I have had in town. I have found those to be too thin and dry. This tenderloin is not dry or too thin. The side salad is freshly made and adequate. The beer is always cold, and they have a good selection. They have outside dining on the back porch along with a bar and a stage for live music. There is also sand volleyball. This eatery is always very clean. No messy bar carpet here. The only drawback to no carpet is noise. The service is outstanding. The Porch is locally owned and operated. Always a good choice.

A Nebraskan native exploring what Council Bluffs, Iowa has to offer. In terms of food, started the journey off right by coming to “The Porch”. The food was amazing, so fresh, juicy and irresistible. I got the all Seven burger w/ waffle fries and pickle fries for an appetizer. The portions are great, especially for guy (and family) that likes to eat. Definitely worth the money! Stop by and your tastebuds will thank you! By the way, Lisa, Collin and Haley are awesome!

I loved this place so much I went twice during my stay down. The bartenders/servers are wonderful people who make you feel really special. I loved the fact that you can do a BYOBurger such a great idea!!
