    The first time we ate here, it was so nice that we went back the next night. My wife had sturgeon, and I had fish and chips; both were excellent. We also had very good cocktails, a Negroni and a Manhattan. The next night wasn't quite as good. She had swordfish, and I had salmon, and it seemed like the chef didn't trust the taste of the fish. The added spices overwhelmed both dishes. When you choose from the menu, think it over and ask questions, so you know what you're getting.

    I took my daughter to Southpark Seafood to celebrate her birthday, and everything about the evening was fantastic. From start to finish, we had an incredible experience. We ordered drinks, appetizers, entrees, and dessert, and every single dish was delicious. The seafood was fresh and perfectly prepared, and the flavors were outstanding across the board. The service was equally impressive—attentive, friendly, and made us feel welcome the entire evening. I couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate my daughter’s birthday. Amazing food, top-notch service, and a beautiful atmosphere. Southpark Seafood has definitely earned a spot as one of my Portland favorites. Highly recommend!

    I had another wonderful meal at Southpark. Our server was wonderful and made sure we were done in plenty of time to see our White Bird Dance performance.

    Excellent service from our waiter who made the experience special. Some noise from table of 18 prom goers but the food and service made up for the slight disruption. Oysters were excellent.

    Ciapino was disappointing. It lacked flavor and was all shrimp, mussels, and clams. No fish that was promised in the menu.

    Southpark is our go to restaurant before Symphony concerts. I’ve never had a bad meal there. Love the clam chowder and fresh oysters.

    Our server was exceptional! Attentive, but not annoying. The sauce on the sturgeon was amazing! Our fish was slightly over cooked, for us. But the flavors were delicious. Overall the meal and drinks were very good.

    Loved that the fish and chips were back on the menu on Symphony nights! A few too many chips though ;-)
