Bistro 921Great Mexican brûlée and crab cakesI had the new crab cakes and they were outstanding..lots of crab and the chopped cucs and avocado plus the spicy salsa made it great. Lots of crab taste but also a good tooth interest. The mexican brulee was great..not too hot but very wonderful. Wine choices were right on thanks to the wait staff.6/10/2013 12:00:00 AMFantastic ChefBest meal I have had in a long time. I would have given 5 stars if my dinning wasn't constantly interrupted by the wait staff sporadically shouting across the room to each other.6/1/2013 12:00:00 AMgood locationNice restaurant in the Hilton which is in a good location when in downtown Portland. Food is good. Not too noisy.5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMAmazing service.We had an amazing time. Service was amazing. Food was delicious. Drinks were just right. The jazz band was so entertaining... Love it here!5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMMother's Day hoorayBeing somewhat last minute planneers we found Bistro 921 in OTable with availability for Mother's Day. Bistro is in the Hilton hotel downtown. I wasn't sure what to expect as I have not been to a buffet line for several years. There were most of the standard breakfast buffet choices plus some entrees that were a little more upscale like the lambchops and the large peelable shrimp. The line was kept neat, the food hot and the only issue was resolved with table service delivery of bagels for the excellent lox that was on the line. What made this a complete buffet was the desert selections. There were many featuring fresh berries and a chocolate fountain with many great dipping options. We would definitely go back! Oh, and a rose for the moms.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMMother's Day at Bistro 921This was our 3rd Mother's Day returning to Bistro 921 with the family, and I look forward to the experience all year long! The staff is friendly and attentive, the food is fresh, delicious, and beautifully arranged, all in all a 5 Star experience every time! Plus we've NEVER felt rushed or pressured to finish our meal and leave, which has happened other places. We've been to MANY of the local Mother's Day brunch buffets around town over the years, and Bistro 921 at the Hilton is the ONLY place we've loved enough to return year after year! We'll be back again next year without a doubt! The long stemmed red rose for "Mom", is always a nice touch too! Thanks for making my Mother's Day special every year!!5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat PlaceWe had the fish special and it was good, but too salty. The other dishes are fantastic though - I've been here a few times. This is the first that I wasn't excited about the food.4/6/2013 12:00:00 AMGood food, good service. MenuGood food, good service. Menu needs to be expanded with additional choices.4/6/2013 12:00:00 AMThe restaurant was surprisinglyThe restaurant was surprisingly quiet for a Friday night. The staff were really great.

The food was excellent as always. The manager stopped by our table and I mentioned why we were there. After we were finished with our entrees the waiter came over with a beautiful (and delicious!) little chocolate mousse cake for our friend. It was a very classy touch.3/28/2013 12:00:00 AM
