Good food, good service, nice atmosphere. I just ate a fabulous dinner here. The spinach salad was fantastic, it had a nice blend of apples, candied walnuts (really, really, good), spinach, great dressing, and cheese. All of the flavors together were fantastic.

Beautiful restaurant located at 9th and Salmon. We were happily seated at a cozy booth with a big ole window. I enjoyed looking at out at the cold night and the trees all lit up for the season. I chose this place due to it’s close proximity to the Arlene …Read the Rest
I will admit up front that through a series of events over the years I have an emotional tie to Paley’s Place. On my first evening in 1996, we had barely sat down when the gentleman at the next table caught my eye. “You simply must try our wine,” he …Read the Rest
The Original Halibut’s has two doors to two rooms: a comfie tiny bar which is host to live blues music at times, and a walkup counter with some tables. The bar has table service, so if you’d like a beer or a drink with your foot, begin and end there. …Read the Rest
When is a bar not a bar? That thought wandered across my mind as w and I were sitting in Beaker & Flask a couple of nights ago in the midst of what was turning into one of the most satisfying dinners we’d had in a long time. The reason …Read the Rest

The family was out for Father’s Day doing a road trip to the coast and back. The timing of the day worked out so that we would back near home when we would be hungry for dinner. Having spent the day at the coast you can imagine what we were …Read the Rest

How can you go wrong here? If you know what you like (I like ribeye steak and crab legs) you will NOT be disappointed. The only times I felt stiffed was when I went there trying out new stuff. Don’t get chicken at a steakhouse. Yelp – Read More>
The news of the closure of another Cajun restaurant here in Portland is disheartening, but in the meantime, Acadia has revamped its menu (and decor) and gone a more casual, small plates route. The result is pretty fantastic, with some Cajun dishes unique to the restaurant despite the plethora of …Read the Rest

Sitting at Mother’s at 1:15pm on a Thursday afternoon looking at all the dust on the fixtures above me, it seems the place needs a good cleaning. Though the restaurant is only about 20% full, I am surrounded by empty tables full of dirty dishes that haven’t been cleared. Several …Read the Rest
dinner, 5PM to 8PM, 7 days a week, you have to figure on at least a 20-30 minute wait. But they have a bar-with a miserable selection of single malt whisky. However….you go to the RL for fish, I guess, not to drink. Yelp – Read More>
If you have the money to spend, I would definitely recommend coming here. The restaurant sits on the highest floor of the building and has the most amazing view of the city. If you haven’t called in for reservations, be prepared to wait twenty minutes or so for a table …Read the Rest
We recently took my grandmother to McGrath’s Fish House for lunch. I happen to love steamer clams, but I don’t love to make them (I know how easy they are, but I just don’t love it). And the last time I had steamers at a restaurant (at the coast, that …Read the Rest
