Completely unplanned adventure out to cleveland had us blown away by @porcolounge and its incredibely friendly, knowledgable, and skilled staff! Pictures and video on their google page truly dont do this place or its drinks justice (as commented on by Merkayla herself). I found myself continually saying “This completely blew my expectations away!”

For context when approaching this place it does seem small, but only from the outside- once you get in your greeted by the tiki guarding this place and enter into a massive lounge area with private tiki huts and a tiki room sporting decor from every walk of americas tiki history- including little homages to the now defunct Kahiki supper club!

The size of this place was just right for a tiki bar in my opinion, though tall people be warned when you go to use the bathroom, the trade off of a massive main floor was definitely the low baring basement.

Atmosphere aside- the food and drinks: we had the pleasure of sitting at the bar and had the tone of the night set by our bartender Shawn and the rest of the bar crew. The drinks were phenomenal, as a sober skull im always weary when there are only a few options for non-alchoholic beverages but porcos had me covered by not only having quite a wide selection but also very prominently labeling them on their menu! My favourite of the night was a porcos staple: The Curse! Another i tried was of course their Mai-Tai which was lovely, i always try to sample a mai-tai everywhere we visit-but the curse was absolutely the stand out for me! In terms of food they have a great assortment of tacos and finger foods like tofu fries. The fries were good however i do wish they could have been a bit stiffer for dipping, but the chicken tacos specifically blew our collective minds with their addition of pineapple it sits just right in the palette 🙏🏻 excellent.

Overall our experience was terrific and both of us highly recommend hitting them up when youre in the cleveland area next! Theres so much more i could say but ill save it for when i visit next :D thankyou again to everyone at porcos, we cant wait to come back!
