La Porchetta - Rib eye with pepper sauce

La Porchetta has been here for years. It's been a go-to for a lot of my family events given we live…read morelocal, and over the years the food has gotten consistently worse to the point I won't bother ever going back. I think others have noticed too, heading in for a Tuesday night dinner the place had only a few small groups for the large space. Service, whilst friendly, seemed to be a difficult task. Example: we cancelled our order for single glasses of soft drink and instead got a jug to share. So we got a jug of soft drink and one glass of soft drink. I don't even understand how that makes sense. I ordered the grilled fish with vegetables, the fish was gummy and disgusting. The vegetables looked like they came from a frozen bah of McCain's, they were limp, sad and had no taste. Other meals included a meat lovers pizza, mushroom tagliatelle, rib eye steak and seafood platter. Wow, the pizza was awful! Absolutely no pride taken into making a decent meal, gross shredded ham, a piece of salami per slice and a little bit of cheese. Rubbery and dry. Pasta seemed to be ok as was the steak and seafood platter. Given its trajectory it would not surprise me that this place will be out of business by the time I next return to Melbourne. My food was disgusting and inedible. Avoid at all costs.

Unfavourable experience. When we arrived they couldnt find our booking. We were seated but after…read more20 minutes I had to go to the bar and ask for someone to serve us. Meals were great, but afterwards the waitress did not remove our plates, even though she was standing around doing nothing. Upon leaving and paying there was no communication from the cashier, she did not ask if we enjoyed our meals, she did not smile or say thank you. It was a very underwhelming experience so I dont think i'll be returning.
