Best American Restaurants in North Portland

You’ll find the food at Jake’s is something very special with dishes you will not find anywhere else. The Crab Sauté is a family favorite and has blown away many a guest that we’ve brought from out of town. I had the bouillabaisse last night and it too was amazing. The local Steelhead has several award winning variations. The appetizers are also wonderful. The drinks are special too. Go—you won’t be disappointed!!

Brunch was delicious as usual and the service was outstanding. Fun options to choose from for both food and beverages. Appreciate there is a good diversity in both alcohol based and non-alcohol drinks.

Wedding Anniversary Celebration! We arrived and waited in the lounge for a window table and are so glad we did. Wonderful view! We can recommend the Lobster Bisque and the Lamp Chops. Our server, Daniel, was marvelous and was supported by Laurel, who was a gem. Bethany in the lounge was very good and really took care of us.

The food was top-notch, and the wait was quite reasonable. The focaccia was truly the best I’ve ever had, and I’ve had a lot of focaccia. I would return just for the focaccia. The waiter was great. Not a noise factory, nice ambience, nice staff. One thing: since they no longer serve pizza, they shouldn’t say on their window that they have pizza.

Went here for a romantic evening dinner after a full day of exploring and hiking around Portland. Kind, attentive staff, outstanding views, well curated menu and wine selection. I do wish the portions were slightly larger, especially the dessert. We ordered one to share, and it was quite small; we could have eaten it in one bite. However, the city view is undoubtedly one of the highlights, it completely transports you into a far more intimate city and makes you forget about the bustling around you. Our server Amanda was amazing! She made sure we were well educated on our entree selections, and I have to commend how careful they were about my tree nut allergy, that kind of attention to detail is a rare occurrence. Overall, it was a beautiful evening and I will definitely be returning next time I’m in Portland.
