    We had a group of ten and arrived a few minutes late and they were super accommodating to us. Our server let us know he was training and we’d have never known, he was fantastic! They kept our drinks filled, service was timely and breakfast was amazing. Will not hesitate to come again, the view here is awesome too!

    This was our first trip to Portland. The food was very good. I had the black cod over grits, and my wife had the fried chicken. Both proved to be excellent choices and the prices were very reasonable. The restaurant is a rooftop establishment on the sixth floor of a hotel with indoor and outdoor seating with views of the downtown skyline. Overall it was a very good value for really good food.

    Food quality was measurably worse than our experience in 2024, as well as options available. Very slow service just to get initial drink order in before we could go to buffet. Seemed understaffed but food was very disappointing, cold, flavorless etc.

    We had a table of 6. We waited an hour for our food to arrive. The restaurant was busy, but not completely full. It was an hour for BLT, chicken samdwhich, tacos…. Had to ask for refills on water, other drinks- multiple times. Food was good, but disappointed in service and how long we waited.
