    First let me say that I always submit reviews when they are positive and try to avoid submitting negative reviews because restaurants can have off nights. However, this time there were too many negatives to not say something. We selected Portland City Grill because our aging parents hadn't been there before and we wanted to treat them to a really nice meal where they could see the city lights. We were disappointed in the changes since we last visited. Our waitress was nice and started out attentive, but she disappeared (at least 20 minutes) after taking our order an didn't check in with us during our meal...the other wait staff delivered food, filled water, cleared the table and delivered the dessert menu in her absence. When she did return, she just said that she was 'slammed' and took our dessert order. Again, she disappeared and only returned to give us the bill. I had to stop her from leaving the table to tell her that some of the seafood was not prepared well and was either old or overcooked. She apologized and said she would tell the cooks. The manager came over to inquire and he ended up comping us a meal. Midway through our meal, it got so loud that we could hardly hear what our parents were saying across the table from us. This used to be a really nice place with reliable food and a fine dining experience. We will not return anytime soon.

    The food and atmosphere were great! Unfortunately there was a miscommunication on which server had our table so until I flagged someone down, we were ignored for quite some time. Once we did get a server, the service and food went very smooth.

    We went for my friends birthday it was just the two of us, our server suggested a nice bottle of Pinot Noir, we shared the Beef Carpaccio. My friend had the Ahi steak and I had the 7oz filet and we shared the Thai Brussel sprouts. Everything was amazing and cooked to perfection. Thank you for the great experience!

    I’ve been many times, but this most recent video, the service was extremely slow and the food was sub-par compared to other visits. I believe they were under-staffed so I don’t blame the server, I blame the management. Our server was extremely friendly, but was rarely able to come by the table because of how large of a section he was working. The food was good for the most part, but the shrimp were super over cooked and weren’t even hot when served. Out of the many times I’ve been, this visit was a disappointment and certainly wasn’t worth the price. The view of course was great and we took people from out of town there, so they enjoyed it.

    Enjoyed the view and the servers were incredible and knew the menu. We ordered multiple steaks and lamb. Three were ordered rare and the lamb medium rare. Unfortunately the chefs in the kitchen slightly overcooked all the meat but they were good. The salads and appetizers were awesome and I highly recommend the calamari. It was the best I’ve ever had. The view is incredible.

    Good food, nice vistas. Service was very attentive. Wish they would have had larger servings of vegetables with the main course. Salad was adequate, but kind of skimpy on the apple/nuts/cheese. One thing I didn''t like was that they tried to give us a table in the back by the kitchen service door even though there were many tables available when we arrived (4:30p). No problem changing tables, but kind of a bone-headed idea under the circumstances and it detracted from their attempt to be thoughtful when seating customers.

    Visiting Portland, and just looking for a restaurant not too far from our Airbnb. I did not really know where we were going, but I was certainly pleasantly surprised when we arrived the restaurant is on top of a bank building 39 stories and views of Portland all the way around. So the ambience was awesome. In addition to meal was excellent. Two of us had jambalaya. One of us had haddock one of us had cioppino. Everyone enjoyed their meal and was delighted with our waiter Travis, a wonderful experience to have in a beautiful city thank you so much.

    The Portland Grill is a lovely place for a special dinner. The views are fantastic and the service is exceptional. My husband was very pleased with his NY strip steak cooked to perfection. My salmon was very dry, though, and the corn salsa on top seemed old. I would not recommend ordering the salmon.

    I ordered the steelhead cooked medium. It came out crispy and dry - very well done. When I sent it back the waiter acted like my request was outrageous. They brought out a new fish and it was medium well. I ate it, but it was not what I expected at that price point. It also seemed like the waiter thought I was going to walk out on my bill when I went to the restroom.

    Much to my surprise I was seated at a table by the window with a spectacular view of the Willamette River and the bustling city of Portland! Dinner was delicious and my server, Laurel, was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. I especially appreciated that she seemed to understand how I wanted my fish cooked, and it was done that way.

    Great food, attentive waiter. Only complaint is one staff member sat a tray with dishes on it directing behind my 13 year old daughter’s head, on the back of her booth while she was eating. That felt rude. It was also a bit distracting that bus staff were setting trays and glasses down around us constantly while they were resetting tables near us. Other staff were standing a few feet from our table at all times surveying the room to update their handheld devices with the status of tables. Due to these few things, unfortunately it was not relaxing.

For Out-of-Towners, this is a place you want to go to because when you up there on 30th floor you can see very beautiful view of Portland. We’ll be back here next time we visit this town.

    Terrible service on an anniversary date. Obviously they hate 2-top tables. This woman went out of her way to make regular tap water look bad so we'd buy a bottle of bunk. I refused a salad and got a dirty look. Bread didn't arrive until after my dates salad was finished. The food was beyond salty, and was amateur at best. They couldn't even pull off a decent mocktail. Total poo-show! Couples, go save your $200. Much better spent elsewhere.
