- NNikkiRaleigh / Durham / Chapel Hill •5 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoMorton's Steakhouse was amazing and the food was absolutely delicious. We had the bone-in ribeye and porkchops with au gratin potatoes. That ribeye was cooked exactly to my "medium" liking and was so juicy and tender. They paried the porkchop with a sauce that took it to another level. The greek salad was delicious and DO NOT get me started with that fresh bread!!!! We ended the night with an espresso martini and an old fashion. It was the perfect way to put a bow on our anniversary celebration. They even offered to take our picture to cherish the moment. From the hostess staff to our waiter Ryan...to the ambience of the restaurant, everything and everyone was absolutely delightful.More infoMorton's The Steakhouse - PortlandPrice: Very Expensive• Steakhouse• Downtown•4.7

Our server was so professional and set a great tone for our meal. The noise made it hard to converse as the tables filled up, but everything else was really nice.More infoKing Tide Fish & ShellPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Downtown•4.2

Discover South Waterfront
The South Waterfront area is part of a Portland urban redevelopment project of several high-rises in a combination health, well-being, fitness center and medical research complex. An urban park has been created along the banks of the Willamette River, and a tram and trollies offer transportation to residents and employees. The high-rise condominiums in this neighborhood also rent ground-floor spaces to several restaurants. Many of these dining establishments offer ethnic cuisine. A Vietnamese bistro, a Mexican joint, and a restaurant offering continental European cuisine are just some of the many places you can choose to visit. The high-rises also boast a full-service cafe, several coffee shops, numerous American-style restaurants, an Italian eatery, a sub shop, and a bakery.
