We had a large group and we expected some hiccups. There weren't many. Overall, the service was great. The restaurant was ready for our party when we arrived. Our group was seated timely. The food arrived in a timely fashion. There was only 1 or 2 orders that were delayed out of 22. We had a great time.

Lunch menu choices could be broader w/more less spicy items. Appetizers overpriced but most of those ordered were very good. Brunch offering is great -- good selection and variety.

Great service and good food in a hotel bar/restaurant. The calamari was great. Corn and crab bisque wasn't for me but it was fresh and well seasoned. The $1 wings is a great deal.

4 stars-Why only 4? I don't mind tipping as long as the service is good and the food is great but when you set it up for an automatic 20% gratuity no matter what you order, I think that's a bit much (especially if service/food is bad). Thankfully, the service and food were good so I'll let it slide. But be warned, you will receive the automatic 20% added to your check. My husband ordered one beer and it was added, so it doesn't matter you get, it's added. Now let's get to why you're here (lol)! The restaurant is located inside the Harborside hotel and they offer breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner. You may also order room service until 11pm I believe. They have a nice setup and bar area to enjoy and fellowship with friends. It was a dreary and rainy day so we opted to stay in for breakfast. We were seated rather quickly as it was not busy at all. The sever was very nice and friendly and assisted us with any questions. So, we came in for breakfast but found out they actually serve brunch at 11am, so we hung around until that time. We did opt for a few plated items to hold us over until brunch. We had seasoned potatoes, blueberry muffins and a bagel. This along with coffee and mimosas kept up busy until brunch started. Let me tell you the brunch did not disappoint! It was a bit pricey (34.99 pp) but worth every penny. Keep in mind the 20% is added. The Brunch is a buffet and I normally don't eat buffets but we were the first people there so that eased our mind (beat the crowd before people came with all the touching and breathing over stuff) the food is located in the roller style pans that close so that's a plus. This particular brunch offered so many different options it's hard to name them but they do provide fresh fruit, desserts and an omelette station as well. It's definitely worth the money, however I would suggest getting there early.

We went to Portum to celebrate a friend's birthday. It was our first time there and we were surprised to find out there was a restaurant inside the hotel. Overall, we had a great experience. The waffles, French toast, and pancakes were all freshly made and brought to our table, while the omelettes were prepared to order. The buffet had a nice variety of items to choose from, but some of the meats lacked flavor and tenderness. We would rate the food 8 out of 10. The mimosa pitchers did not disappoint, as two pitchers served our entire party multiple times. The live band was amazing, playing great music and even calling up all the birthday people to sing happy birthday to them. Our service was impeccable, with Carlos taking care of our every need. We will definitely return, and we're sure everyone in our party will too.

The staff was great and loved the jazz band during brunch. Unfortunately the food was just meh.

Definitely a hidden gem located in a hotel, conveniently located close to Top Golf. All of the food was really good, especially the jerk chicken tacos!!

Food and service good, staff is always professional and accurate with your order. It can get loud from the bar area but not a deal breaker. I returned several times already and would recommend this restaurant.
Staff were pleasant accommodating and buffet variety was great. I am vegetarian and was able to put together a great meal for myself. We were celebrating a birthday and we had a great time! We will go back.

My review is about carry out only. I called on Sunday 02/11/24 around 11am for brunch and the person who took my order was very friendly. I wanted an order of regular French toast, some bacon and an order of pastries. Instead of this woman over charging me for them separately she gave me the meal which was super helpful and patient as I didn't realize what she was doing initially. French toast came with 4 thick cut pieces of bread and 3 slices of bacon. I love my FT on the thicker side and a little firm so they were perfect. The pasties were apple and they were flaky and not overly sweet. My friend grabbed carry out for me before from here and I really enjoyed it so I was happy it didn't disappoint the second time. The only negative I could say was that I didn't get syrup in my bag. Thankfully I was headed home so it wasn't too inconveniencing. The inside was super cute and clean from what I could see, I'd be willing to sit down to eat one day.

And they even came to let us know about the food we were eating. When I say I will be back! I definitely will be! Thanks for.the experience portum.

I've never had a bad experience, and the food is always tasty. I went on Valentine's Day, and it was a preset menu, which was awesome. I chose the steak entree with Asparagus and a loaded baked potato. The preset menu included a starter, entree, dessert, and a glass of champagne, classy and perfect for me.
