Review of The Porch

It's hard to believe this was the first day of the soft opening. This team of professionals know what the heck they are doing. It's really tough for me to go out to eat (and feel like a normal person) since my celiac disease diagnosis in August of 2019. I was excited just to hAve some new choices too eat across from our neighborhood movie theater(Alamo). I picked out a few I items I would order by looking at the menu in advance, the usual process for us celiacs.

The place looks great by the way. Finally, a great neighborhood bar in my neck of tthe woods in Tempe. The HH is from 3-6:15 during the week. I was celebrating a promotion at work, so what better way to do so than at the porch and rest it out.

Emma. She's the best! Seriously! I usually tell servers I have a gluten allergy bc some servers don't understand how sick I can get from gluten. She immediately empathized and assured me the cooks would switch their gloves, and to my surprise, they have a separate fryer! You heard me! If you have celiacs you know this is a very big deal. It wAs the first time I had French fries at a restaurant in months. I literally was almost in tears! Happy ones!!!

The cocktails were awesome. The food was great. The culinary manager even car out to deliver our foOd and talk to me about that they have Udis GF buns for burgers. YESSSS!

Seriously. Thank you. Really. Thank you for making me not feel weird about my dietary needs and taking it seriously.

You guys went above and beyond for us! We will see you very, very soon

Celiac friendly?
