Portico | Monroe

I attempted to eat there back during the height of Covid and had one of the worse experiences ever. My friend and I got up and left after setting there for 15 minutes and no one even addressed us. With that being said, I decided to give them another try recently and today was the second time. Both of those times I received excellent service and the food was absolutely delicious. As long as I continue to receive the quality of food and service that I have been of late I will continue to be a repeat customer.

I read the reviews before going and was a little skeptical at first. I decided to go anyway and give it a try. Glad I went. Everything we ordered was good. The Hangry pizza is something we will definitely be back to get. Thr only thing I will say is the friend Green tomato under my grab cake was a little too thick to my liking but still good and the lemon pepper seasoning on the shrimp had just a tad too much for me but still good. So I did not want to give 4 stars since we were happy with our selections. Service was great too! So we will be back!

The atmosphere and menu are different than the one in Ruston.

Thank you to our waitress Jordan. She took care of our table of 10 like a champ. She was so sweet and took care of all our needs. I just want you to know that you're appreciated.

Food absolutely delicious I had the chicken sandwich with Mac and cheese it is very good delicious fries I want to try the pizza next time I go

The food was FANTASTIC, the place was very clean, and the service was great! We will definitely be back when we are back in town. I got the red fish, which was amazing, and my husband got the fried catfish. He has very high standards for his catfish and he was carrying on all day how great theirs was.

This is a great place! The food was delicious and our server was great. I will come back. My drink, I forget the name, was very good!

The server was awesome and so was the food! We never had to ask for refills and even though my kid was acting up she didn't act annoyed or anything, she just kept making sure we were ok!

Brunch on the patio on any beautiful day is better than brunch indoors anywhere else.

Don't skip the beignets on the brunch menu, they're incredible. I had the Hawaiian sandwich, great combo of savory and sweet.

My husband got food
poisoning and has been sick since last Thursday, when we ate there.
Today is Sunday. He had the Sirloin strip, fried sweet potatoes, a salad and half and half tea. I did not get sick. Our doctor confirmed the food poisoning diagnosis. We will not be back.

This place is awesome! Great food and drink options. Friendly staff. Lots of TVs in the bar area.

Blackened redfish, green beans and corn. Probably the best blackened fish I’ve ever had… This place is five stars all day long!

Loved getting to spend time with one of my longest and best friend's entire family. Food was really good! Macy did an exceptional job of taking care of our large group with ease. She was truly wonderful!

Christmas lunch with co-worker plus Boss and wife. Great food, 4 different entree Gumbo, Red Beans Sausage Rice, Blackened Fish, Fried Oysters and Crab Cakes ordered as well as appetizers salsa/guacamole dip and chips, plus sweet tea, wine & margarita were great

Bacon wrapped shrimp was amazing. Small portion but totally worth it. My friend said his fish sandwich was perfect. I was sadly disappointed by the gumbo, a little hot sauce turned it around though. Not enough of an issue to drop a star. Atmosphere was casual. Everything looked well maintained and clean.

We've been to the Monroe and Ruston locations. Both have great service and excellent food. Shrimp and grits appetizer is yummy, and the low country boil is amazing... I'd ask for the sauce on the side next time because it's swimming in it, but it's still delicious. I forget what my husband ordered, but he loved it as well.

We were seated quickly on a Friday night, served quickly and politely, and our food was all excellent. I had a Philly cheese steak, which is a newer menu item they said, my wife had crab cakes and fried green tomatoes, and our friends split a ribeye. All very good.

The service was good as always. They accommodated our group of 8 with no issues.

I love the fried fish, their wings are a nice size, and the bacon wrapped shrimp 🍤 is fantastic!

Had a very enjoyable Sunday brunch here. The Southern style chicken and biscuits were very good and there was something about the gravy that made them extremely tasty. We will be coming back.
