Best Restaurants for Groups in Downtown

Once again, we had a wonderful Thanksgiving Dinner at Jake's Famous Crawfish. We come her often for dinner and it never disappoints us. Food and service is consistently good. Our server, Charlotte, remembered us from a previous visits and again, did a fabulous job in taking care of us, as well as others, as I observed.

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.

This is for the Thanksgiving dinner. Food was exceptional, plenty of options and enough for everyone. Service was fantastic and smooth and courteous esp. on a day where it is possibly one of the most complex and challenging for staff and kitchen. We are grateful to all the women and men who worked on behalf of the people who came to Urban Farmer. It was an extraordinary experience.

Everything was exceptional. My husband and I were excited for specific things and our waitress made sure that as soon as they were ready that we got them fresh. Above and beyond excellent service.

Food and signature cocktails were excellent as well as the service.
