This was one of if not my favorite dinner while visiting AMI. The restaurant is so nice and homey inside. The service was fantastic. I was so glad to find a grouper on the island where I could opt not to have a fruit based sauce or salsa on top. The caper butter was yum and fish cooked perfect. My dad enjoyed the steak tips special, my mom loved the chicken on the menu, and my daughters Mac n cheese was a hit too.

Incredibly large portions and beautiful place to sit inside. We stopped by on at Saturday and there was plenty of availability for seating. We ordered the shaved lamb appetizer and we both got the combo taco plate which had shrimp and the grouper. Though they are known for their grouper, I was more impressed with their shrimp.

The food was really good. Cajun shrimp and crab dip and naans are amazing, calamari was great, fresh fish and best deserts. Services was top notch, friendly staff offering great advice. It’s very cute inside. Would definitely recommend and we will be back.

Summer salad, very refreshing. Ribs sandwich and the Brussels sprouts as sides were very good. The calamari is also a very good option, but I think the best thing about this place is the service and the atmosphere inside. You can’t go wrong coming here.

Spontaneously ran into this place with my fiancé. I ordered salmon and my fiancée ordered Caesar salad. Our waiter was amazing, very friendly, told a lot about the food and gave advice on everything. The salmon was absolutely delicious. I was a bit afraid of this combination but it turned out really amazing. This is definitely my new culinary discovery. The portions are huge, you definitely won’t leave hungry. After a few days we took my parents there. We all ordered fresh catch fish, each with different sides, everything was very delicious too. It’s a beautiful place, I recommend the atmospheric porch. Elegant but without exaggeration – and the food is a real masterpiece. The best service at the highest level. Definitely worth a visit!

WOW, The Porch is an absolute must if you are visiting Anna Maria Island! My husband and I were here for a 6 day vacation and despite the many wonderful options on AMI, we ended up dining here 4 of the days because it is that good!

YUM!! Inside an adorable and historic Anna Maria house, from the service to the food and energy, we LOVED The Porch! Best fries, yummy succotash, great burger, incredible Maple Glazed Salmon, and the Great Blue drink was delicious and beautiful presentation! The pictures of the stone below are outside on the steps, made up of beautiful shells. All of these details really made our experience here! We had such a great time here and will definitely return when we’re back on AMI.

We ate at The Porch on Sunday celebrating our 2nd anniversary. This is not just our first visit to the Porch but to AMI. Excellent meal! I had the watermelon salad and the chicken. Because it was a celebration we finished our meal off with the chocolate cake. This was the best meal I’ve had in a long time. If you are heading to AMI, highly recommend the Porch. Get a reservation! Enjoy!

Fabulous food! Our entrées included Filet Mignon Tips over mashed potatoes & Yellow Mouth Grouper Piccata. For dessert we loved the Basque Cheesecake & Chocolate Mousse Cake. Bartender Ron kept the laughs flowing!

My wife and I went here for the first time to celebrate our 40th Wedding Anniversary. Amy, our waitress, was exceptional from the start, continuously checking on us and providing friendly service throughout. The food was amazing and would highly recommend ‘The Porch’ for 100% customer satisfaction.
