This is one of the first restaurants I visit while in Portland. The location is great and the food is always very good. It sits right by the Williamette River and has great landscaping. I visited during late lunchtime around 2 or 3 pm. It was very relaxing and the food and atmosphere were great. When the meal was finished it was nice to take a short walk along the river on the path. It is best to come around afternoon if possible. The portions tend to be a little smaller than dinner time. It is definitely worth it sacrificing a little less food. The reason is around dinner time they tend to be very busy. The wait can be long unlike lunch time just walking in. This is about the only thing I don't like about the resturant. It is always great visiting and enjoying a nice meal and great beers.
