| - This was a really fun place, and is a memorable experience for both food and ambiance.
The Porch's ambiance is young and hip with tall ceilings, garage-door-type walls that open up to let in some air, and big visible pizza ovens. Sitting down, you're definitely in the middle of it all, but you also have some privacy.
The food was fun, too. The pizzas were creative but not zany. The Bianca, for example, had cheese, figs, and truffle oil. A tasty combination that I haven't seen elsewhere, but that immediately sounded delicious. And so I ordered--and loved--it.
The pizzas are individual-sized and are served on metal trays. You get your pizza and then up to a trio of sides--fresh parmesan, super spicy red pepper flakes, and some oregano. I say "up to" because the kitchen only gives you the sides that would taste good on your pizza. My Bianca did not come with oregano, for example.
The pizzas were all delicious! I tried the margarita, bianca, and piggy. The crust was some of the best crust I've ever had--soft and chewy and warm. I also heard good things about the burger.
The drinks were also creative and tasty. I had the pineapple sage margarita. While it was a little sweet (and this is coming from a dessert fanatic), I still enjoyed it. I also tasted the "almost" arnie and the porch pink lemonade and liked them both.
