We held out joint party at Porterhouse Blues in the weekend and had the best night. They were open to decorating the room as we wanted and really helped us to have a really successful party. The food was amazing and many of the guests are still commenting on how delicious it was. It is a great venue with everything we needed. If you're thinking of a venue then we really recommend Porterhouse Blues. Thanks so much guys, it was a great night.
Birthday celebration. Great service, very pleasant helpful waitress. Excellent wine list and the most perfectly cooked steak. Thoroughly recommend this place
I really love going there went last night was so good lamb shanks to die for and dessert yummy definitely going again
Always a delicious meal, my steak was cooked beautifully .. many thanks to the chef.

Nice night!
Great place for lunch or dinner! Nice atmosphere with friendly staff :-)
Great service and consistently good food
Friends from Wainui and the Hutt love to come to Upper Hutt to dine at Porterhouse Blues
Amaze! Each course just got better and better! Hands down to Lui for making the best cheese cake eeeever - caramel and peanut slab! We'll be back
Come here every so often and never disappointed. Have amazing sauces that go lovely with their steaks which are always delicious. Polite staff and fast service too.
Been here a few times and everytime the food has been great. Love the curly fries with gravy. Usually restaraunts serve them with aioli but the gravy is so much better and unique. Got served within. 5 mins of sitting down. Love coming here. Dont understand the 2.8 rating. Never a bad experience coming here
Ate here this morning upon arrival the sounds of fine southern jazz welcomed us while the food was delicious and service fantastic seafood chowder gave me the power will definitely recommend and be returning for more power chowder chow
We chose this place to sit down and have lunch based on the reviews we read on here. Great to know that the reviews were right. We ordered from the brunch menu. Our meals were beautifully cooked and the garlic bread was really yummy too. Awesome friendly service. We plan to go back here for dinner at some stage
Went here for birthday dinner
My meal was mussels and it was beautiful!
There was six of us
Mum ordered a vegetarian meal and it was average
Dad ordered mussels also and loved them
My brother ordered a huge steak but said it came with a salad but it was barley a salad it was tiny and steak was a little undercooked and tough
Brothers wife ordered pork belly it was good
My wife had seafood chowder and she also loved it
So all round pretty good
All deserts where lovely
Best lamb shanks! I've been there a handful of times and each time has been lovely! My friend ordered the steak and that looked perfect also! :)
Bloody hell! This place is heaven on earth. Massive owners. We had a work function at this place and I was stoked as when the owners come out and had a jam with us (we'd taken our guitars and ukes). It was a great night. I would recommend this to anyone and everyone. Nga mihi nui ki a kotou nga kaimahi me nga ringawera ki tenei whare ataahua. Y'all rock!
Had a great dinner here tonight. First time dining here, recommended by a couple of work mates. The food was excellent! The best onion rings I've had in a long time! Very well priced, and the wait staff were super friendly. Highly recommended, we will be back for sure!

Hands down, the best restaurant in Upper Hutt. The staff are always welcoming and accommodating. I highly recommend the pork belly, it is delicious. In the dozen or so times I have eaten at Porterhouse Blues, with friends, and with family, I have never once had a bad experience. I love the vibe, the wait staff are fantastic, and the owners are always friendly and sincere.
Prices are extremely reasonable, and the food is always cooked quickly and perfectly.
Will definitely be returning!
Love the place!! we have been several times and each time the food has been outstanding! the staff are great and very helpful and offer a wonderful menu and their garlic bread is amazing, especially the cheesy garlic bread, I would quite happily just have plates of this for my dinner. We have been midweek and also on weekends and the service never changes it's always great and the waiter always has a smile on his face.
Been a few times. Staff are great . Great service and food was great too.plenty of tasty dishes to choose from... Would recommend to all.. child friendly and child's menu is satisfying.
Dined at Porterhouse Blues last night and thoroughly enjoyed. We were greeted upon reliable by friendly staff and felt very welcome. I ordered the Southern Belle and it was delicious. The bacon wrapped around it was cooked to perfection along with the stuffed potatoes and salad with a nice sauce. My mum ordered the Reef and Beef which included a range of seafood accompanied with salad, potato gratin and steak. We had a disappointing experience at the Portlander in Wellington where a slab of steak was $39 and you had to pay for sides on top of that (even salad). Meals were cheaper and had much more to offer. My mum found the meal much better and I was overwhelmed by how good the chicken was. Despite it being moderately busy meals were given out promptly and they had a great team who were polite and friendly. Definitely worth coming here again, highly recommend.
First time going to this restaurant and definitely coming back to this place. Had a group booking last Friday and enjoyed everything about it, the meals were great, the Lamb Shank was beautiful. The service was great from the waiter.
LOVE this Restaurant/Bar!!!
My partner and I call this place our local because we go at least twice a month, we have taken groups that enjoy the food just as much as we do.
We have never had a bad meal once out of at least 30 times we have been. This place is awesome the staff are supper friendly, fast and efficient. We have been to a lot of places in Wellington that are no where near as nice as Porterhouse, i think they are doing really well for Upper Hutt. Our steak is always cooked to perfection, as well as the rest of the food, they are never stingy with the amount of food they give.
I recommend everyone and anyone to go to Porterhouse and give it a go!!! :)
We won a prize in a raffle giving us $50 voucher. Our food was delicious i had fettucine and my wife had chicken. They were both very delicious and cooked beautifully. Very quiet atmosphere on the night we went. Loved the feel of the place with couch area and kids play area. Very friendly staff.. Hosts were great.
Went here last night and selected the pork spare ribs for entree. There was enough for the two of us and tasted great. They even supplied a finger bowl too. I selected the rump 500gm cooked rare with chips and veg. I have to say when I order rump I expect it to be slightly chewy however this rump was cooked to perfection and has to be the tenderest rump I had the pleasure to eat. Being an ex butcher I have some experience....service was fine. My better half ordered the T-bone and again was cooked just how she likes it. We will definitely be back.
Recently attended what was to be an engagement party, turned out to be surprise wedding! Food was devine and plenty of it, hosts were only too happy to help and very friendly. Venue was clean and comfortable and warm a great night had by all!!
Me and my girlfriends had a fab dinner! Food was divine drinks were great too we had no room left for deserts :). The only downer was a new waitress who go order slightly muddled but she had an awesome team behind her was great to see. will definitely be going back again!
Went back for the second time as my family really did enjoy their meal .the first time i thought it was ok . This time round i can say the food had improved and the steak (beef and reef Special) was exactly what i asked for Medium rear .the pasta of the day was excellent and some of the kids enjoyed the ribs which we brought home to polish off the next day .
This Family run business deserves to succeed and all my family thought the service was excellent .
Instead of going to the cossie with your family you should support this great family restaurant .with good decor and friendly staff and better food
One improvement for my next visit - the steinlager pure could of been colder -hey u cant please every one
Had a great meal ..... made the mistake of having an an entree which was large so by the time we had a main I couldn't try the desserts! Ribs were so tasty and main was great value and also very tasty. Good service and atmosphere.
Often go here for lunches as the fish and chips are excellent!! Went Saturday evening with a large group and the food was lovely.My steak was cooked just as I had asked so will defiantly be going again. Many thanks
Have been to this restaurant a few times and have received excellent service always greeted by the waiter with a big smile and always makes you feel welcome I usually have the schnitzel as it is lovely the salad is always fresh and tasty, service is excellent. If you can't eat all your meal as I can't always I was offered a doggy bag to take it home what a great idea don't always have desert as the meals are very plentiful. The deserts I've had were lovely. I have recommended this restaurant to my friends and have also taken some there myself as it has a very relaxing atmosphere it's a great place to have a chat and catch up with friends. Would recommend to all.
Thanks for the wonderful meals
We went for a meal at Porterhouse Blues on Saturday 22 December. The decor is great and we were greeted nicely and seated by the waiter. My three year old son was given felts and a coloring sheet. We ordered 2 steak meals and a cheeseburger for our son. It was delicious! We were very impressed with the porterhouse steak, best we have ever had, cooked perfectly. Overall a wonderful meal with great service. We will be returning!
Lovely and a great variety of meals available.
Fantastic service and a lovely cosy atmosphere.
Keep it up folks, look forward to visiting one night
Nice to see a place like this in Upper Hutt.

I had a good time! Everybody was friendly and we enjoyed our food. Not to mention the atmosphere is really well done, it's honestly everything I could ask for from a restaurant experience. Ran like a well-oiled machine.
Loved the pork ribs. Great for kids with toys and games. Kids meals were well enjoyed and the meals were a really good size so we all went home full.
