Best American Restaurants in North Portland

The staff were very friendly and accommodating. We had changed our reservation last minute to add 2 guests one top of the existing 4 plus a baby, and it worked out perfectly. All of our meals and were delicious. Most of us ordered the crab truffle bucatini and steak. Everyone shared with their partners so we all got to have a pasta and secondi. The burratta and bread starter is a must order. It was a perfect evening and I am so appreciative of the staff who were so kind and helpful.

i dont remember the chefs name or any of the staffs but genuinely had a blast with my partner, the whole time we basically was talking about the warm feeling that was brought to us by the staff trully magnificent

First time visiting Jake’s Famous Crawfish and on Valentines Day no less. It was a very warm and welcoming experience. The food was perfect, as was the ambiance and the wait staff. Initially, due to our understanding of the restaurants long history, we weren’t sure what to expect. Perhaps things were going to feel outdated to us. This, however, was not the case. If anything, the rich history adds to the wonderful mystique and overall experience. Excellent all around and we couldn’t be happier about our visit! Excited to return soon!

This is my favorite place to eat at anytime we are in Portland! I love the atmosphere of the pearl district location! We come here very often and always can’t wait to go back. My favorite is their chicken and dumplings. It’s so flavorful and warms your soul. My husband’s favorite is the chicken and waffles, so much flavor in the chicken and with a sweet potato waffle it just comes together so well. You won’t regret eating here!

Everything was superb from the host’s rostrum all the way to the finish line. The service was very good, a lovely view of the city from the 20th floor, and the entrees were exquisite from Chef Pedro Almeida. Thank you!
