Chart house was always my go to for Valentine's Day and the reservations were always made 6+ months in advance because it used to be that good! Anyway, apon arrival the whole waiting area was so packed there's not enough seats for the amount of people they ate having wait. So we are forced to stand in our nice heels for over 20 minutes while we wait for reservations that were 20 plus minutes ago. Next year I highly suggest they don't put reservations so close together that you just jammed ur waiting room with people just to hope to fill every spot. After being seating, still nothing. Waited a few minutes before receiving water and I get that it's busy I truly do and I come here every year on Valentine's Day but it's never been this terrible. When you see every single customer wearing their winter coats inside the restaurant that surly has to be an eye opener that restaurant is clearly freezing. It was so cold after being seated my whole experience was just me shivering waiting to leave because it felt like prison at this point. Ordered salad and soup honestly the best part of my whole visit was only the soup and salad. Our main dish was terrrrrible. Got the shrimp and lobster pasta and for $50+ I would hope it tasted good, nope. Only thing I could taste was the insane amount of frozen peas on the dish. The waiter sucks, get someone younger who has a sense of urgency? Also telling customers they need order their desert basically when they receive their dinner is a bit insane. Talk about pushing people to leave quickly but never actually having the sense of urgency to follow through? By the time my food was cleared from the table and I'm just waiting in this freezing restaurant wanting to leave I have to wait 20 minutes for a lava cake that tastes exactly like the frozen ones from the chef store that take 30. Seconds to heat in the microwave which almost every restaurant uses? This place has severely gone down hill and hopefully they look at their fails and try and fix it next year but I'm beyond embarrassed hyping this restaurant up as if it's one of the best in Portland and that's far from the truth now. Wont ever return after this experience for being such a big company owning Portland city grill and nearly 50+ restaurants I can see it's the corporate that's letting everyone down read more

The restaurant sitting on top of the west hill that has a great view of the city and the far away Mt Hood. My friend who is a local, picked this place for dinner. I ordered Yellowfin tuna and Copper River Salmon. The tuna was great, but the pricy salmon ($69) was a little bit off on the flavor. It still tasted good but not matched the price tag. read more

Our family went to Chart House for the first time. Disappointed. Salad was limp. Mashed potatoes were room temperature at best. Salmon was overcooked. Prime rib was not tasty. We had the calamari and ahi tuna as an appetizer. The calamari was mostly batter and chewy. Not tasty. The mini lava cake was good. The clam chowder was decent. Our waitress was good. Really bummed as it was my birthday dinner. But, I had always wanted to try Chart house and now I have. read more

Service was good but the food has gone Downhill . I am a culinary graduate from Italy so I know food . Also I was a GM at a few high end restaurants . I ordered a Cobb salad and ask for blackened chicken well done . The chicken was not freshly cooked ! It was cold and the blackened seasoning was just added . It was rubbery and the texture was so off putting . I told the server and she blew it off saying I ask for it well done . I did t want to argue so I let it go . Dinner at this spot is amazing but Lunch today was sub par in many ways . Disappointed to say the least but we Left Our server $80 read more

Dropped in for happy hour recently and happy to report it's still a thumbs up! Menu-wise anyway; the chubby, overstuffed Prime Rib sliders never disappoint, and the Ahi Nachos --- while not exactly filling --- give you healthy pieces of tuna on the chip(s), and both are solid happy hour choices. Good wine and beer prices for HH as well and our server was a delight, taking our orders with a smile. I've had good luck with happy hour Fish Tacos too, and if you go for a regular dinner meal, their King Salmon or Filet Mignon are great options. Steak and seafood is the name of the game here. Sure, it's a chain, with flashes of corporate aloofness but it also manages to bring in a little bit of a neighborhood vibe, at least downstairs in the lounge when it's happy hour. Be warned though - seating is tight downstairs and it gets especially packed at happy hour, so don't think that your group of 10 is gonna find room to spread out. The views of the river and mountains are great from both levels but upstairs is the really the better one. read more

Someone commented the lobster bisque is stunning. My taste is that it is a little too salty for me. The oysters on shell were very fresh but tiny. The prime rib is great, very tender and melt in mouth. The NY strip on the other hand was a little dry. I got the lobster and black cod risotto. The waiter strongly recommended but I found it no excitement. I mean fish was fresh, that's all I could compliment about. The atmosphere was classic. Would I go back? Probably yes if with customers for business, but not an ideal place for dating, family or friends gathering. read more

I really enjoyed my first time at Chart House. I tried the Mac Nut Mahi and it was delicious. The fish was flaky and I really enjoyed the peanut sauce with the rice & veggies. It all paired nicely. The hot chocolate lava cake was five stars. The cake had a nice texture; lava cake is so fun to watch when you take that first bite and the chocolate oozes out! It was perfectly melted. It was so good with the ice cream and toffee bits. The place has a nice atmosphere and a fantastic view of the city. Service was good and our food came quick. Also nice is the complimentary valet! I will definitely be back for that lava cake! read more

The server was amazing, super friendly. By far the friendliest server I ever had! The food was good. 8/10 on my end. I had the twin lobster tails and noodles w/shrimp. My Bff had the steak & potatoes and honestly hers was fire! we had some really cool cocktails / no fire ice but that didn't defeat the ambience that we experienced so therefore all stars I will definitely come back!!! read more

We drove 45 min to celebrate my husband's bday. I ordered a salad with chicken and it came to me flattened and dried out like a piece of cardboard. He was totally finished his meal and I sat there waiting for my replacement. I thought it would be expedited...no luck. Spoke to manager on my way out and he just relied "oh yes, I heard sorry about that." He couldn't have cared less about our experience. HUGE Disappointment! read more

Great service, nice views. Chef doesn't disappoint. The pre fixe specials are a nice offering.

I had dinner last night at this location in SW Portland. It's pretty close to my home but I decided to take an Uber as the parking lot is pretty small, and I'm glad I did. Our reservation was at 5:45 and I arrived at 5:30. I had booked a table by the window which was very nice and quite a bit quieter than the main floor. The restaurant was pretty full even this early with a lot less f families and large groups. I was greeted promptly by my server who introduced himself and asked if I'd like a cocktail while I waited for the rest of my friends to arrive. I ordered a Manhattan and was asked which Bourbon I preferred, a nice touch I thought. It was brought quickly and was pretty delicious. When my friends arrived we ordered the oysters, which were Komomoto's and the mango and prawn stack. Both were very good. We also got splits of Moet et Chandon to accompany the appetizers. For our mains one person ordered the Sous Vide Chicken and the rest of us ordered the herb roasted 10 ounce Roast Beef. We got creamed spinach and asparagus as sides, it came with garlic mashed potatoes. I have to say the meat was perfect, tender and rare as requested, the sides were also really good. The chicken was full of flavor juicy and a perfect temperature. The portion sizes are on the large size I'd have to say, all of us took food home. All in all this was a really solid and enjoyable experience with value for money. I'd certainly go back. We were all to full for desert but what we saw at other tables looked pretty enticing. read more

Had the best service tonight. Incredible Wagyu burger. Unmatched anywhere in Portland. Our server was so polite and attentive, yet not obtrusive. Wonderful evening. read more

Like everyone else on this emotional roller coaster, I'm approaching this visit with mixed feelings. Yes, while it was good to visit Chart overlooking the Willamette River in lush South Portland, I felt prices didn't match the menu and that food was just 'ehh'. That being said, some folks consider this as a "must-visit" restaurant. Chart H. has a nice sounding menu with lots of seafood, bisque/soups, meats, salads, etc. Despite their ratings, the crowd had a buzz. We couldn't leave the bread basket alone here. It's filled with pumpernickel long roles, mini ciabatta ones and seasony crackers, we asked for another basket. I could live off these rolls. Our Crab+Shrimp Avocado Stack had a nice amount of both- but the avocado wasn't ripe at all. Hubs liked his steak, my daughter was over the moon with her shrimp+juicy, seared scallops over mashed and my Cod, had a severely sweet glaze. I'm not sure why. Our plates weren't lip-smacking great at this chain restaurant and our visit was uneven- but service was outstanding from our guy Jacob. read more

Honestly disappointed had a eggs Benedict with no Holland dail sauce the prime meat was super dry and th service was quite terrible the drinks had not taste I think some management change is needed and better chef read more

Everything I got was well seasoned and good which is hard to say for most "fancy" restaurants in Portland! Free valet parking :) Oysters were fresh! The reviews are right, the Calamari was the star of the dinner. Large portion, great flavor. Clam Chowder was disappointing as there were no clams really. Filet Mignon was solid, not exactly a wow factor to it. Ordered Twin Lobsters as an add-on, again solid but not wow. The Shrimp Pasta was light, and shrimp was well seasoned! The Lava Cake was amazing despite how full I was at the end of my meal. read more

Wanted to try something new and ended up at Chart House. We made a reservation through OpenTable and we were promptly seated when we arrived. We were seated downstairs, which I liked more than the upstairs. The upstairs has better views, but I like the ambiance of downstairs a little more. We started off with attempting to try both signature drinks, but they didn't have dry ice stocked, so we couldn't order one of the drinks. The applewood smoked bourbon was good. For dinner, we started with the charcuterie board. I am not an olive eater, but was told the olive mix was delicious. The fig jam was my favorite, along with the cheese and pesto. For mains, I decided to go all out with the king crab legs with a side of the garlic mashed potatoes and crunchy coconut shrimp. I realized after the fact (even though they have obvious signs in the restaurant) that this was a landrys club restaurant, the server was nice enough to allow me to get the points for my tab. Great experience overall, one of the nicer restaurants with a view in PDX. read more

Nice restaurant with a fantastic view of Mt. Hood! The food is good, nice service. Everything we ordered was great! I really enjoyed my shrimp and scallops, tasted so good, and beautiful plated too. The calamari was the best I've had so far, just maybe it's better not to have the funny fried noodles at the bottom were be perfect. read more

Always great ambience - if you can get there during daylight for the views you should. Coconut shrimp is a must! The lava cake for dessert has to be pre-ordered and, IMO, is not that special. Large cocktail menu but maybe a bit more show than substance. read more

Very very disappointing. When you spend a few hundred dollars on a meal for a birthday/anniversary celebration that they forgot about, you'd expect a great meal. Then when you tell the manager about your disappointment and his comment is "You're the first customer today who wasn't pleased" (we got there early when it opened so we could go to an event after dinner), we probably will be the first who was disappointed. There was no birthday/anniversary cake which is what we were promised, the king crab I ordered was snow crab at best and it was not warm and we were very rushed even though the restaurant wasn't busy ... in an out in less than ah hour with 4 courses ... and no inkling of care that our experience wasn't great, you can be assured we will NEVER go back. Sadly, the whole experience was a waste of money. read more

Not stellar but really nice for a date night. Service was good. It kinda dragged to start but once food started to roll it was quick. The Crab Cake is maybe one of the best ever. The mango sticky rice that came with the salmon was the worst part of our meal. read more

We took our daughter out for her birthday dinner last month and did not have quite the experience. We were hoping my fish dish was raw cooked maybe 25% of the way through my wife's dish was served with closed muscles, but my daughter's steak and her boyfriend steak were perfect. This used to be a Fish preferred restaurant but not that day. The server was pleasant, but I didn't feel like he was very hygienic while filling our glasses of water he would grab the glass so that his hands and fingers touched the rim of the glasses so that whatever was on his hands was transferred to where we would drink the water from on the glass professionals would grab glasses from the bottom, not the top read more

Booked a table for 3 and we couldn't have been happier with our dining experience ..it's a big restaurant , but still had a cozy and elegant vibe .. and good news for us with hearing issues. I could hear and carry on a conversation without straining ; the acoustics really are great! Our dining choices went from perfectly cooked filets, to Sea Bass all were perfectly seasoned and beautifully presented. Our waiter was attentive without being too chummy, and didn't call us "guys" once! lol I hate that ! I'm looking forward to another fabulous dining experience soon! Hal read more

I usually go to the chart house a few times a year and I usually order the same thing every time and it's amazing. We always start with the shrimp mango stack as an appetizer and it doesn't disappoint.! I normally get the macadamia nut mahi-mahi as my entrée and it's always wonderful, but this time I decided to order the chart house three course meal. The chopped salad, which I normally order wasn't very fresh tasting this time and lacked flavor for some reason. The entrée I chose was the ribeye steak and I have to say I was very disappointed. It lacked flavor and it was very tough and I would have to say it was the worst ribeye I've ever ordered. It was cooked perfectly, but there was no flavor to it, and it wasn't tender at all. Our service was amazing as usual, and my (Server) even stuffed olives for my martini. I'm not sure what was happening, but the food tonight wasn't impressive. read more

Great restaurant- food, service and ambiance. Just need to be prepared for valet parking only but it's a 10/10.

This location is gorgeous, has an amazing view, valet & the service was spectacular, attentive & prompt. However, the food was on the level of that which would be at an assisted living cafeteria. The lamb chops, steak, shrimp + mango + avocado appetizer were bland. The seafood risotto, Pinot Grigio, crab cake & molten lava dessert were good. I wouldn't rush back here for dinner, perhaps happy hour at a drastically lower price. read more

Lobster bisques, superb!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This used to be our go-to place but we haven't been here in a while. Food was a five star, server was a 4.5. Price... pricey! $700 for 7 adults and two babies. Service was a bit slow if you consider our reservation was for 4:45 because of the babies. We politely asked to help expedite before the two 21 month olds started to get crazy on us. Thank goodness we were seated in the back corner where they could run around and make noise without being noticed. Parking lot was a huge mess as the valets left a large SUV running, on the side of the lot, blocking folks from leaving easily. Overall a very nice Mother's (and Grandmother's) Day meal. read more

The chart house had never let me down before.. Last night i visited the chart house, had some good service, but i was letdown by the lobster risotto, it was overcooked felt like a thick paste. I mean thick!! Like play-dough, This 'risotto' came under a delicious Chilean sea bass Which was cooked Excellent, the tomato sauce that accompanied the fish; was definitely in need of perfection. Way too bland! Also i was impressed by their take on the bruschetta, they have exploited the traditional recipe and made it in to a charcuterie board, i thought it was a great idea!! But the ingredient that combined the whole dish was a ricotta cheese mixture that did no justice! Yuck! Honestly i would have enjoyed way more the traditional bruschetta with warm toasted bread drizzled with olive oil and the refreshing tomato basil topping. By the way the whole board was served cold with made it not so appetizing. But anyways, this is strike one for the chart house. Hope they up their game a little bit! Buon appetito! read more

The food was out of the world! The views amazing and the service was the best! Can't wait to go there again!

This was the worst dining experience I've had in Portland. I ordered a chop salad, lobster carbonara & a lava cake for dessert. First off, this dining experience took so unnecessarily long, maybe 1 hour 45 minutes to go through the whole thing. My biggest critique is that the food was simply bad. The pasta had no flavor. It was dry and simply hard to swallow. My partners lobster bisque was also not tasty. Our server on the other hand was really sweet. This poor experience had nothing to do with the service. If you're gonna pay $77 + tip for this experience, you'd expect a tasty meal. Very disappointed in this restaurant. Might as go to Cheesecake Factory to get your moneys worth. read more

Amazing food! Everything was really good and prepared very well. We did door dash and it was amazing!
