Restaurants near Governors Park

Outstanding food. Friendly and attentive service. Extensive bottled wine list and adequate by the glass. We had beef and pork Gigli and crab fettucini plus a nice mixed green salad and the seasonal fruit crisp. Despite a torrential downpour, the awning over the front patio kept us dry and the weather was not cold, so it was a pleasant al fresco experience. The inside dining room was humming and full. One of the best restaurants in Portland. Get reservations early, especially for weekend nights.

Amazing food and service! One of my favorite new restaurants that I’ve been to in last several years.

One of my favorite places in Portland and didn’t disappoint again! Get one of everything if you can. 🙏👍

It's been over forty years since we had been to this mainstay in Portland dining, and it did not disappoint! Not to be missed? The onion rings, of course! And, while we did not order the wedge salad, I certainly will the next time. The top sirloin - baseball cut - was terrific, and I've never met a potato I didn't like. I did bring half of each of them home to enjoy for lunch the next day, but that's half the fun of too much food! Our waiter was excellent, the cocktails (house Manhattan) and wine were too. The hallmark of a good steakhouse, I believe, is there should be a quiet, clubby vibe - and the Ringside fulfills this to a tee. I can't wait to go back (and, I'm NOT waiting another 40-years!

Awesome view!!! Great atmosphere. Food was delicious!!!!! Wounder evening celebrating our 30 year wedding anniversary 💕💕💕
