Modern Australian dining.
Porters owners, Zoey and John of Williamstown opened their doors in September 2018. Wanting a challenge, they built a diverse but delicate menu to coordinate with their glamourous, but expansive restaurant footprint.
Evening dinners are available Tuesday - Saturday from 5.30pm and lunch on a Sunday 12pm or enjoy drinks in The Lounge from our award wining wine list.
We hope to see you soon at Porters. Call for your reservation: 03 9397 1251 or book your reservation online.

    Very good restaurant, but a bit noisy for a quiet dinner with friends when you just want to talk.

    The service was good. The wait staff continued to return to the table to check in, which was a positive. Went for the steak special. It was good, a bit grizzly, but cooked well and tasty. The chips were good, and the salad left a lot to be desired. It is certainly a good place; however, I would keep exploring rather than driving 20 minutes to return.
