Restaurant

The Melting Pot has been our favorite special occasion dinner choice since before they moved from SW into downtown. They know us when we call, and have a record of our favorite wines (this is major because I can never remember them). Whenever The Amazing JD is working, he is our server. Even if months have passed since our last visit, he greets us like regulars, often remembering our preferences, and always taking a moment to be social. This adds an "old school" familial flare to the occasion, which we love! Thank you for doing what you do, and we will always be back!

Food and drinks were good. The service was nice. Just be prepared to use the bathroom at Mary's strip club lol

OVERPRICED FOOD! I ordered the zen wrap and was highly disappointed. Bland tofu, bland food, and damn is it a hit to your pocketbook. I don't recommend.

Kevin is awesome! I ordered some wings through Postmates and got the wrong order. When I called the second time to resolve the issue, he was very professional and very understanding. I live in Tigard, Oregon and he went out his way to deliver my correct order to my home on his own time. I appreciate him for doing that, he is the best!

Good food, great service. A bit short on menu items, but you probably won't be disappointed by any selection.

One of my favorite brunch spots! The service was great and food was excellent. We have small kids who don't have the best table side manners, but, the staff was so attentive and so good with them, made the brunching extra special.

The food is great, the atmosphere is nice. The owner comes around the tables and really makes you feel welcome. The lamb shawarma over hummus is delicious.

The food choices are served buffet style in hot trays. There are one or two vegan/vegetarian dishes and a few gluten-free options. Almost all of the dishes are a watery sauce with some chunks of meat or veggies. The portion of white rice is enormous! I'd say it's 70% of the meal.

Absolutely an awesome place to eat they have a lot of variety vegan and dairy-free would highly recommend!!! I was a first-time customer never ate here before in the staff was super helpful and friendly with explaining the process

Alright.. I kinda randomly chose this place. I had a really, really bad dinner in Little Italy in New York. So, my usual 6 month Italian craving was not satiated. (I tend to not do Italian, even when I'm in Italy) So, I open tabled this place, sight unseen, a few days before Christmas. Holy smokes, did I get lucky. The scallaps with Anise on Brussels sprouts... to die for. The wild boar ragu...mild, intricate mix of game, pasta, and sauce. A circus of flavors, so dense and delicate. I will admit, the Prosciutto + fig crustini was not my cup of tea. Far too sweet, but I can understand how someone could like the flavor. All in all, great place, with a beautiful space. Great service. A place I feel bad not exploring and want to come back too. (With a big appetite and pay day) Caveats: come with an appetite. My dieting, random butt walked in and was done before a main course. Expect to pay a bit, this is not Little Caesers, it is a high class restuarant. It would be nice to have a prix fixe menu. You'll want more courses, and this place could compete with any of the high class Portland restuarants.

Excellent food, good service, a bit pricey but the food really is amazing

If you like weird high brow dining, sure. I have a less refined palate and just want a good burger (they do have a good burger here)

Love the decor and bookcases around the tables. Service was a little slow, though, and dishes a bit overpriced for what they were. However, prosciutto and biscuits starter was delicious... fried chicken was solid but could use something more unique! Felt like the dish wasn’t given enough attention. Like much more pepper in the breading to make it top notch or more unique mashed potatoes like red-skin buttermilk ones.

Clean and spacious dining area, good service.

The waiter we had was friendly and very personable. Never did we feel rushed or forgotten about. Great place for a romantic dinner. I reccomend having a martini and enjoying some of their charcuterie boards.

Kevin provided us excellent service throughout our dining experience. The food was well portioned, reasonably priced for an establishment of this quality, and perfectly cooked. Our complements to the host/hostess, chef, servers, bartender, and owner; you are all amazing and provided us the perfect dining experience on a Friday night.

When we got there, found it it was prom night. Go kids and hope their night was great. With that, the place was packed, but we did make a reservation via OpenTable. Before I go into the food, I will say that I was really impressed with the staff. Being so busy, I expected it to be tough for them to get around. They were well staffed and the wait between visits was just right. Didn't feel neglected or where I had to wave someone down. BRAVO! The food was fantastic. Started with the charcuterie board that was delicious. For dinner was the below images. Didn't try the fish, but the steak was perfect. Not sure what the orange sauce was, but loved those little ball like things. So tasty and a touch of sweet. I wish I knew what they were. They all compliment each other very well. The carrots and broccolini were tasty too. Not disappointed in any way. I will be coming back. Portions were just right. Ate all except for a small amount of the beef.

I have done a couple catering orders from Nicholas and have been super satisfied with their work. The food is simply delicious and fresh. It really tastes like homemade food and makes your tummy happy :) Thanks Nicholas for offering great food and for a great value!! :)

Oh my Thai! This small local dive spot is amazing. They only have 4 main dishes and do each one perfectly! The pork and rice is very similar to Vietnamese Thit Kho and I love it

A must visit in Portland you simply won’t find a restaurant like this anywhere else. The unique menu is delicious and the vodka selection is world class. The decor is authentic and the staff is very friendly. The dark breads are a rare find especially in the US. Go for happy hour to get a good sampling if you’re on a budget!
