ATMOSPHERE- was great they had a 3 piece band, Willy & Nelson and they were great the place was bustling people were laughing and chatting, overall great vibe! SERVICE-was great friendly and helpful and the special menu had great choices as well as the regular menu! Food- We had a glass of wine the Cesar salad the Parmesan crusted Halibut,and the Salmon. For Dessert we had the chocolate cake and coffee. Everything was great!! Our favorite was the Halibut and the cake!! The only very small gripe I had was the portion size on the salmon,the risotto,and the mash potatoes were small. The Halibut on the other hand was a nice big portion and I highly recommend trying it!!!! Total with tip around $120 not bad for the quality of the experience. This place is great we will definitely be back! If you are thinking of going to the Highway House skip it and go here this place kicks HHs butt!!!

Our experience contradicted everything she said. We were greeted as we entered and shown to a table with an excellent view of the river. Wish that I had caught the name of our waitress because she was very good. Ordered an appetizer to share. While enjoying our meal the waitress delivered a brownie sundae to the next table. We ordered one too. Maybe we can get back to Columbia Portage Cafe and actually try the food on the menu.

For an appetizer, we ordered the Chicken Cordon Bleu Bites. These very well could be a meal in & of themselves! They were amazing, little, round balls of heaven! Translated- this means perfectly crunchy-coated, tender chicken, ham, & melty cheese balls that we dipped in a luscious honey mustard sauce! Our entrees were the Mac & Cheese & Cajun Fried Chicken, both served with side salads & fresh, warm bread. The Mac & Cheese had just the perfect amount of jalapeño spice & smoky bacon bits with perfectly-cooked pasta, and a rich, velvety cheese sauce! The Cajun Chicken also had the right amount of heat, delicious cream sauce, and perfectly tender chicken with the most amazing crunchy coating! And, the sausage dressing gave the dish a fantastic comfort-food feel! We will return!

The dining room is on the smaller side So the bar in a booth was the perfect spot. We started with the pierogis, and they were delicious! For the main course, I had the smoked prime rib, cooked perfectly medium rare, just the way I like it. My husband ordered the special of the night: Italian Asiago stuffed gnocchi with portabella mushrooms and bacon in a garlic cream sauce. It was absolutely incredible! Every bite was bursting with flavor. We can't wait to come back the next time we're in Hood River! Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great food and a welcoming atmosphere.

My fiance planned a wonderful mountain getaway for us, and lucky for me- we had dinner reservations here. It was so chilly in December, We had a cold mountain day, and we bundled up to go to our dinner reservations and I have to say- I wasn't expecting much when I heard the name "Grill". I was thinking- burgers, fries, your typical post-ski grub. I was wrooong! We strolled into the coziest little restaurant and were greeted by the two lovely people working there. Felt like I very sweet family vibe. They steered us in the directions of the pasta dishes we ordered, and we had the Soup of the Day to start- I believe it was some kind of Tomato bisque and that hit the spot. The Hazelnut pasta was a hit for my fiance, and I loved that he got to try such a classic Oregon flavor in a pasta- how fun. My chanterelle ravioli filled me up so fast, I also loved being able to try chanterelles in this format. Both dishes felt very creative and full of so much Oregon pride! Delicious!

We had the rockfish (pictured), and I really liked the light crispy outside of the fish and the nice tapenade. Not sure I remember the name of the desert, but whatever it was...we thought it was going to be too much for 2 people, but we ended up licking the plate clean. Wow.
