Best Live Music Restaurants in South Waterfront

We had a wonderful dinner. Our table was perfect, our waiter was awesome. The food was wonderful as always. This is our go to restaurant when entertaining out of town guests.

The food was good. We all had the BLT. The fries were perfect. The coffee is was not hot. The server never came back to refill or ask me about it.

Perfect experience all around. We were a party of 11 that included 3 young kids. Very relaxed atmosphere and so professional. Service was very friendly and accommodating. Food was delicious. Highly recommend.

We went to Wilf's after a long absence and was delighted to find it just as wonderful as I remembered. Although there are newer items on the menu, all of my old favorites were there. We had the French onion soup, rich and spectacular, and the Caesar salad. Prepared table side, the Wilf's version has my vote as the best Caesar in Portland, particularly if you like them garlicky (which I do). For entrees, I had the prime rib, and my friend had the Steak Diane, the latter also prepared table side. Both were perfect. (Check out the You Tube video for how to make Wilf's Steak Diane; it tided me over during the pandemic.) As always, the service was excellent; friendly and attentive without being obtrusive. Located in the old Union Train Stations, Wilf's restaurant is beautiful and spacious. We sat in the dining room, but it is all really one large room. We could hear the live jazz music playing in the bar area but it was still quiet enough to have a good conversation. All in all, delightful.

We were lucky that the staff was able to accommodate us being late because of traffic. (15 minutes) We travel down from Seattle to see a show at 7:30 and sis their theater menu as stated we seat down at 6:17 and walked out at 7:17 with feeling of full but not uncomfortable full. Made our show on time.
