Best Restaurants for Groups in Downtown

Our waiter was very good and helpful. The food was excellent. Salmon cooked perfectly. Calamari, steelhead and sole all very well cooked.

Portland City Grill offers an exceptional dining experience with incredible food. The sea bass was perfectly cooked, and the seafood trio was outstanding—flavors that truly impressed. However, our server, Troy, lacked warmth and came across as impersonal, which was a bit of a downer. Despite that, the overall experience, atmosphere, and quality of the food were fantastic. Highly recommend this restaurant for a special night out!

What a beautiful Christmas breakfast! We had a group of 11, a mixture of kids, teens, and adults. We were treated with kindness & generosity throughout our visit. We never felt rushed even though we were there for a long time. Our drinks and food were excellent. The ambiance was a very sweet and upscale holiday vibe. Our server was incredible. We will definitely be back. Thank you!

We had our meal here on Christmas Eve. This restaurant was SLAMMED, but they handled it extremely well. We never felt like we weren't being attended to. The food was excellent, salad bar continuously being refreshed. Some of the meats weren't exceptional, but for a night that was jam-packed our wait was less than expected and service was great.
