Porterhouse Music Bar & Restaurant brings exceptional food and live entertainment to the heart of Sunny Isles Beach. Located at 17008 Collins Avenue, it’s become a go-to spot for both locals and visitors looking for dinner, drinks, and music under one roof. Here, guests will experience the warmth of a neighborhood restaurant with the energy of a music venue, making it equally suited for special occasions or casual nights out.
The menu features a bevy of global flavors with a focus on quality meats and seafood. Standout dishes include the Porterhouse wagyu burger with truffle mayo, onion jam, and gruyere cheese, as well as the tender 1855 reserve beef tenderloin that showcases the kitchen’s expertise with prime cuts. Seafood lovers shouldn’t miss the fresh Mediterranean branzino, while the Asian-style tuna tartare and perfectly crispy fried calamari make excellent sharing plates. Dessert is a must, too, as their chocolate cake is the perfect way to cap an already incredible meal.
Besides these highlights, the kitchen also serves up fresh pizzas and creative salads for those wanting lighter fare – we’re big fans of their take on a Greek salad—and the bar team knows their way around both classic cocktails and wine. In short, you can’t go wrong with anything on this menu.
What really sets Porterhouse apart from other restaurants in the area, though, is their programming. Performers take the stage regularly on the weekends, filling the space with great live tunes and DJ sets. The programming is carefully curated to maintain the right atmosphere—energetic enough to keep the mood up but at a volume that still allows for conversation over dinner. Fun Monday nights bring comedy shows, adding welcome variety to the entertainment lineup.
The interior design deserves special mention as well, striking a thoughtful balance between casual and upscale. The dining room features comfortable seating and well-spaced tables, while the bar area offers plenty of chairs for solo diners or those just popping in for a quick drink. No matter the occasion, this neighborhood spot has you covered.
If you’re looking for a place that does both dinner and entertainment well, Porterhouse hits all the right notes… and keeps playing them into the early hours. It’s where great food meets good times in Sunny Isles Beach – sophisticated enough for a special occasion but relaxed enough to become a regular hangout. Whether you’re a foodie, a music lover, or both, Porterhouse has something for everyone.
