Restaurants near West Portland Park Natural Area

Consistently top notch. Our group loved the creamy hummus with burnt ends and poblano, cedar planked salmon, fennel apple salad, squash dip with rose petal harissa, and the fluffiest pita bread. All were boldly flavored and outstanding. It’s a beautiful, cozy space as well. Wound up the evening with a wonderfully sweet and fragrant Turkish coffee. Perfect vibe inside for a chilly autumn night or enjoy the patio in the summer. Thank you, Yalla!

Chart House has been our go to restaurant for special occasions since moving to Portland in 2019. This Thanksgiving holiday was no exception. We had a wonderful traditional holiday dinner. The customer service was superb, and the staff function like a well-oiled machine. Our dinner was scrumptious and offered everything we would want for Thanksgiving. If you didn’t want traditional fare, you had plenty of options for vegetarian, fish, and beef entrees. Many thanks to the staff for making our Thanksgiving dinner a special one again.

It was Thanksgiving and it was very busy. As usual the Japaneses hibachi bbq experience was lively and the chef was funny and entertaining. The dinner was really good and there was plenty to choose from for both meat eaters with steak, shrimp, chicken choices and vegetarians with a tofu choice and plenty of vegetables and rice. The company around the communal table was friendly and everyone seemed to be enjoying their meal and ate everything and also had dessert. We upgraded our dessrt from the included ice cream to a delicious banana tempura. It was unusual and so good! A great alternative to the traditional Thanksgiving turkey dinner that we really enjoyed.

Service was cordial, prompt and efficient yet not rushed. Food came out of the kitchen quickly, attractively plated and perfectly cooked. Portions were satisfyingly substantial. And, a very pleasant dinner for two at only $50 was an added bonus. The Oswego Grill on Kruse is my 'go to ' for entertaining out of town guests (and sometimes in towners too).

We had a nice dinner on veterans day. Since being a veteran my meal was complimentary. Only thing that could have made it an even greater experience was to have had happy hour.
