Swung by this spot for lunch and the fried chicken was delicious. The slaw and potatoes were good too. You'll definitely get your money worth. Service was quick and I'm definitely open to trying out their wings. Heard good things about them.

First time visitor to this one, went with a coworker so he knew the in and outs. However, they did have signs around to ask questions if it's your first time. He said to do the chicken, but I saw Catfish...and well I love catfish. Ordered that, but they said it would be a oit 20 minutes. Unfortunately I was in a hurry so I went with th spicy chicken. I love when things work out. It is as amazing! Super juicy, spices were right there, way good. I loved the breading. I got the 3 piece all white meat...could have got one and been fine...they were huge. And as a side note, we will be going back to try the catfish! Very welcoming, lady behind the counter I as as really nice. The restaurant itself has some seating, not tons, but it's not a huge place. Didn't matter, we found a seat and ate there. Looked like lots of carry out. I didn't try any of th sides today, but what I saw looked great. I am excited to go back and try it again with my wife.

Porter's fried chicken is absolutely delicious. I've gone out of my way more than once just to enjoy it. Every time I order, the chicken comes out perfectly moist, never too salty, and always a satisfying fried chicken experience. I really wish they had another location, but whenever I'm in the area, I make it a point to stop by and treat myself to a meal.

First time eating here. The service was good and the food was quick. I got the two piece meal, leg and wing. Chicken was good and so were the sides ( mashed potatoes with gravy & coleslaw). I would definitely eat here again. I would choose it over the chain restaurants.

Long-time favorite fried chicken restaurant, in unassuming strip mall on Big Bend has a steady stream of regular customers who know better than to patronize the fried chicken chain restaurant down the street when they can get better quality food, at a better price, at this Mom & Pop restaurant that's been here almost 50 years. Besides fried chicken you can get catfish, cod, shrimp, Jack salmon, burgers, chicken breast sandwich, toasted ravioli, and sides like mashed potatoes, cole slaw, potato salad, etc. But the fried chicken and fried catfish are the star attractions. You can order buckets, or boxed dinners, which come with 2 sides. Normally they give you a mix of chicken pieces, but you can ask for Special, meaning you can specify what pieces you want, for a higher price. If you request spicy, the pieces have a nice kick to them, but not overly so, and it might take a few minutes extra to prepare -- but worth it, if you like spicy. You'll get pretty messy eating your fried chicken, so grab plenty of napkins. For the same reason, maybe not a good place for a first date.

They catered our hospital department's food and the sides were all legit. The chicken was pretty good too. Wish they would have sent more sauce for the wings.
