Restaurants near Washington Park

Apart from one year we have come to Ringside since 2016 for our anniversary dinner and every time it has been a success. The wine list is amazing, especially since there are quite a few Barolos to choose from. The steaks never disappoint and this time we also tried two new items on the menu: the octopus and the Brussel sprouts. The wait staff, and Tyler in particular, was attentive and personable and made our dinner a wonderful experience, again. We shall return!

One of the recommended restaurants to try when you’re in Portland. I booked it for me and my friends because they were craving for seafood. The interior had a posh but cozy feeling, the staff were amazing and even went above and beyond when we asked her for club recommendations and she gave us a list! The good was phenomenal! We ordered dungeness crab and artichoke dip and wished we had more pita chips because that was a good way to start the meal. For the mains we got the Jake’s Famous Étouffée as I’ve read a lot of rave reviews about it and all I can say is that it deserves all the hype because it was sooo good! We also got the Seafood Fettuccine and it was equally amazing! We enjoyed all the food we got and actually finished everything! Would highly recommend going here.

Our server Kianna was absolutely amazing. She was so patient and attentive, and made my birthday feel so special. Thank you for all that you did!

Portland City Grill is always a fun experience. From the 30th floor of Portland's "Big Pink" the views can be spectacular, and usually are. Over my twenty years as a resident of the Portland area I have been to Portland City many times. Actually my first date, after moving to Portland, was in the bar at Portland City Grill. I have enjoyed the restaurant with many family and friends, and they are always at the ambiance, service, food, and of course the view. I took a friend there for Thanksgiving Dinner in 2024, the restaurant had a special Thanksgiving Dinner meal, with all the fixings included. We had a wonderful view of Mount Hood. The staff provided excellent service, even with the restaurant being very busy, we still felt well cared for, and the meal was terrific.

Great food and staff. However the 3 percent upcharge before tip is lame. It’s a work around for the restaurant. Also like many restaurants the ambient music is too loud. Makes it hard to have conversations.
