Diner Reviews
  • "Ringside is a very good steak house. High quality beef done perfectly to order. We also had the calamari and it was cooked perfectly. The waitstaff, although not very warm, was very good. It was nice to be in a restaurant with a staff the knows which side to place and which side to clear. That seems to be uncommon in the Portland dining scene. If you like onion rings, this is the place to eat them...."

  • "The food here is amazing. Steaks are perfect and melt in your mouth. The onion rings are superb as an appetizer, and I can't say enough good things about the lemon cheesecake dessert (huge portion!)! Service from our server sadly didn't match the food though, as he was less than stellar."

  • "I took my husband, his mom, and his sister for a "surprise" birthday dinner. It was a 5-star evening all around. We were greeted cordially as soon as we walked through the door and shown to our table a few minutes later. because I had made our reservations on-line we were treated to some really good onion rings. Our waitress, Michelle, was very attentive throughout our meal, she made the event even more special with her humor and good nature. We all ordered the tenderloin and, to a person, enjoyed every bite -- it was very tender and cooked to perfection. Because it was Dan's birthday he was offered the dessert of his choice. Crime Brûlée was the choice and it was also very good. We've decided Ringside will be our Go-to restaurant."

  • "I had a wonderful meal at the Ringside East on 6/27/14. The food was fantastic and the server was extraordinary. We received complimentary onion rings for making reservations using Open Table (Bonus!!). I highly recommend Ringside East!"
    Dined on 6/27/2014
  • "Service and food are excellent. We took our family, son and daughter-in-law, daughter, wife and myself, for my wife's birthday. Menus came with "HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARY" printer across the top. this was our first trip to the Ringside-Eastside, will definitely return."

  • "Great food and exceptional service. Perfect place for a nice dinner and wine without the hustle and bustle of being downtown."
    Dined on 6/23/2014
  • "Steak and prime rib were excellent--they remain some of the best in the city. French silk pie was very heavy and rich and we had been expecting something light (chocolate mousse). Our server was very pleasant but the service was very slow. My wine was delivered when we were finished eating and we were tempted to ask for our dessert to go because it took so long to receive it."
    Dined on 6/22/2014
  • "We eat at the Ringside often. The service is always excellent, the food is good. We like that the menu has changed slightly. We do wish that fresh flowers were still on each table."
    Dined on 6/22/2014
  • "Four of us went to eat at Ringside on Saturday evening. As usual, everything was great. We had prime rib, surf and turf and filet mignon - all were prepared to perfection. And oh the onion rings were fabulous, as usual."

  • "Wanted to find great dinner close to airport. This was perfect."
    Dined on 6/20/2014
  • "We went to Ringside East to celebrate my wife's birthday as we had been there many times before and enjoyed it every time, Nice atmosphere, excellent wine, wonderful service, and great food."
    Dined on 6/18/2014
  • "Food was good but pricey. Portions were generous and ambiance was surprisingly good for the physical location. Good wine list but overpriced."
    Dined on 6/18/2014
  • "The Chilled Seafood platter appetizer was amazing - made for 2 it would be a meal in itself. My fiancé and I split the Porterhouse - it was to die for - simply amazing. Wine list was a little pricey, but it did contain some good values. We can not wait to go back. The prices were very reasonable for what we got and represent an excellent value."
    Dined on 6/14/2014
  • "When something is perfect time has a way of changing it and not necessarily for the better. Not here. Always excellent. If any of the staff is having a bad day you would not notice it."
    Dined on 6/13/2014
  • "Nice get away for great food whether for two or a group; and professional staff."
    Dined on 6/12/2014
  • "The food was delicious as always; the service a little slower than usual. The 8-plus customers at table nearby were too loud."
    Dined on 6/4/2014
  • "We have dined here many times, but tonight it seemed as if folks were not paying attention to detail. Items arrived late or out of order. Had to ask someone for additional water. Food was overcooked. It must have been one of those nights."
    Dined on 3/26/2014
  • "We really enjoyed ourselves, celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary--a very special occasion. "
    Dined on 5/31/2014
  • "Been to Morton's, El Gaucho & Ruth Chris and Ringside has the best steak by far. Service is always excellent, wine selection enormous, always an enjoyable experience."
    Dined on 5/30/2014
  • "The Prime Rib was tender and the lemon cheesecake was outstanding. The wine had a good favor. The server was very friendly."
    Dined on 5/28/2014
  • "Went to dinner Saturday night. Had a reservation. Received comp order of onion rings for booking on line. That was very nice. Salad was very good, but no French dressing available. That was odd. My Surf & Turf was not what I had expected. I had a baked potato that was way over baked. The inside was brown. The Surf consisted of 2 large shrimp and the Turf was 3 small pieces of steak. While it was all prepared well and delivered with excellence, it was sad. Really, for $29+ 4 or 5 shrimp and maybe 1 or 2 more chunks of meat could be added. I could over look the way over done potato then, but all of it together, was sad. "

  • "This is our favorite Ringside location. It is easy to park, the staff is wonderful and the food is always good. "

  • "I want my favorite food prepared the way I like it. That is why I go to Eastside Ringside. I have never been disappointed in the preparation nor the service. I leave with satisfaction."
    Dined on 5/17/2014
  • "The bone in ribeye was excellent. Flavorful, perfect medium rare and nicely seasoned. They provided a nice list of local beers. I basically went for a good steak and that's what I got all served up on a sizzling platter. Service was top notch. Price is on par for high end steak houses. Highly recommend."
    Dined on 5/17/2014
  • "My wife and I took my mother-in-law to Ringside East. I had asked for a table near the fireplace when reserving our table on-line, and it was ready just as we had requested. The food was delicious, and wait staff was attentive without being distracting. It was a wonderful evening. We have used this restaurant for special occasions as well - they have always exceeded our expectations."
    Dined on 4/27/2014
  • "I relied on the Ringside reputation when choosing a spot to take my elderly mother to lunch. The ambiance was fine, but for the empty room. The service was attentive and timely. The glass pour list was a C-. The food was pretty mediocre. It seemed like the kitchen was indifferent to the details. There would have been no way my mother could have eaten that club sandwich, with the hardened (not toasted, just hardened) bread slices. It seemed to me that the Ringside was relying too strongly on its reputation and is dismissive of its customer base in this location. The bright spot of the meal was the friendly service."
    Dined on 5/15/2014
  • "From start to finish, a wonderful experience. Our waiter, John, was excellent. Very attentive and pleasant."
    Dined on 5/13/2014
  • "We were there on Mother's day--We went to Happy Hour first and then had dinner in the dining room. Our dinner was excellent--great server. I had the the fillet and my wife had the lobster tail--both were cooked beautifully. Also, had the onion rings--very good too. We love to have dinner there on special occasions--we drive from Gresham because it is so so good!!!!!!"
    Dined on 5/11/2014
  • "We were there to celebrate my brother inlaw's and his wife's anniversary. The service was awesome and the personalized menu was a very nice touch. It made their anniversary extra special. I appreciated it. The food on the other hand was not up to par. Boneless ribeye was way undercooked. And there were lots of gristle. Little disappointed. "
    Dined on 5/6/2014
  • "If you are in the mood for a fine cut of meat this is the place to go but be prepared to pay for it. Because we were new guests they gave us a plate of their onion rings on the house as an appatizer. Very yummy and a nice gesture. I had a cocktail with Mango and cinnamon. Creative and tasty. My husband and I were both in the mood for the prime rib which was spot on. I had garlic mashers and my husband had the cheesey croquette with it. Both nicely prepared. The waiter asked us twice if we wanted a salad but we knew we would not be able to finish our meal after the onion rings. I think asking once was enough. The side of broccoli was average. Next time I will try the Filet Mignon so I have room desert too. I bet it is good. "
    Dined on 5/3/2014
  • "This was a wonderful find for a business dinner for three out-of-town businessmen. The food was delicious. Onion rings are a must! One party member had surf and turf, a second ordered a small filet, and the third had the lobster tail. All were delicious. Service was slow, but very warm and friendly. The only negative would be the host staff. They were somewhat cold, almost rude, and very elitist. If I managed the restaurant, that would need to be changed immediately, as they are the first impression a diner receives about the restaurant. Attitudes definitely need adjusting there! Otherwise, five stars!"
    Dined on 4/30/2014
  • "We love Ringside. We go a lot for Happy Hour and it is always great. Dinner is higher priced and we save the dining room for special occasions. But every single time we go to Ringside, we order Onion Ring because they have absolutely the best around."
    Dined on 4/27/2014
  • "Prime rib was tough and underdone. Bone-in filet had to go back to the kitchen as "medium" was delivered nearly raw. Maybe it was an off night for the kitchen, but overall, considering the price point, it was a disappointment."
    Dined on 4/27/2014
  • "Good service and food abounds. In an area with few nice dining rooms the Ringside provides both. This steak house that is very good and doesn't break the bank is a winner. Ample free parking is a great bonus. And don't forget those fabulous onion rings."
    Dined on 4/27/2014
  • "My wife and I recently had dinner here to celebrate our Anniversary. Our experience was excellent from start to finish! The food was high quality, cooked just right and made for a delicious meal. Our waiter and the rest of the staff were great, attentive but not intrusive. We lingered over Spanish Coffee and dessert, visiting and enjoying the evening. Thank you for your efforts!"
    Dined on 4/26/2014
  • "We thoroughly enjoyed our RingSide experience. John was a wonderful waiter and very attentive and knowledgeable of the menu. We were surprised with a free appetizer for making a reservation. We had onion rings and split a salad to start. The salad was quite large for being split in half. My husband enjoyed the prime rib and I had the stuffed chicken. We ended the evening with amazing desserts. The peanut butter torte was amazing but a little too rich for my taste. We don't live in the area but would definitely recommend RingSide to our friends. "
    Dined on 4/26/2014
  • "Food was very good but not cheap. Presentation of food and wine missed the mark. Generic wine glasses. Lack of wine knowledge by server. Food served on generic charger plates. Not visually appealing. "
    Dined on 4/25/2014
  • "It was everything I was hoping for to celebrate my Mother's 90th birthday."
    Dined on 4/23/2014
  • "everything was great except for your lousy beer selection you need to get a better selection of beer on tap like stella or pilsner urqual"
