It was a nice Saturday night and the place was pretty packed. Arrived at 5:50. Waiter came right over to take my drink order which came pretty quickly. He came right back but I hadn't had time to read the menu yet. He didn't return until 10 minutes later to take my order Although slow in getting what I ordered the food was great. I'll be back for sure read more

First time trying this place; I made a reservation for Easter. Nothing on their website suggested a special menu, so I assumed normal menu. Arrived for my noon reservation for the very overpriced breakfast buffet and omelet menu as the only thing available. $45 buffet for an adult - I had the last serving of lukewarm eggs and bacon with dry biscuits. The coffee was hot and delicious at least! My in laws and husband had omelettes off the static menu for $25 and reports were "okay." Service was better than the food, and the ambiance was quite nice. Very disappointed. Wish we had left once we saw the menu. read more

Makaila is a fantastic bartender. She's great at multitasking, makes delicious bevvies, and creates such a relaxing and comfortable atmosphere. The food and snacks here are tasty too. I had the mini sliders with a salad, along with an Old Fashioned and one of their Mystic Isle drinks, and both were very yummy. Highly recommend stopping by, especially if Makaila is working! read more

For all who read this!! Do not come to the Rivershore for breakfast. They have only one waitress. We arrived at 8am had to grab our own menus (not a big thing) the waitress passed us by many times, was very busy. Finally she stopped at 8 fifteen. We have to leave at 9. Still waiting for food . It is 8:25, read more

Beware! The menu here at the rivershore show items that have an "S" at the end. As in plural. However, it may be that you will NOT get more than ONE. In fact. The appetizer crab CAKES that are on the menu for $20. YOU ONLY GET ONE !!! I called rivershore about this and they tried to bs me. They said that the menu says crab CAKE. NO IT DOES NOT! read more

Service is horrible. Second time my friend and I came into the restaurant since December or January. A waitress whispered to the host as my friend and I came in as we got seated. The waiter that waited on us forgot things we ordered. I ordered my steak well done. It came bloody, he got my food and my friend's food mixed up. When I made a comment to the waiter, he asked me, what do you want me to do? And I say to cook it more cause I won't eat it. He took my plate, took it away about 45 minutes later. It came back and I was missing the other portion of my food. At that time, the manager was talking to me and told me to calm down, and she said at 3 or 4 times when I never raised my voice. To find out from a couple of people that the restaurant gets alot of complaint from from the service and food. I highly recommend NOT eating here. You might end up getting sick as I did from the food I did eat tonight. Worse restaurant in town. read more

We had the best food and most amazing service from Douglas at the Rivershore tonight!! He brought everything just as we asked, and we tend to ask for variations. :) Douglas gave us the type of service that I thought was extinct. We will visit again! And get the prime rib again! read more

Updates for East Side long running restaurants - 1 of 2 I could have sworn I'd given Rivershore 4 stars before because I have eaten there about a handful of times. While it looks and probably is very '70s or early '80s, it looks at home in its setting from which you can take in some great views of the confluence of the rivers if seated on the terrace. You can get some of the view from tables closer to the big windows. Rivershore is about classic American food as shown in their preparation and presentation of meat, poultry, and fish dishes ... and more. It's about heartier fare and, in this more salt of the earth area, definitely not bistro food with small portions. I was hungry and I thought I'd drop in, though it was for dinner when I've almost always gone here for lunch. As I went over the menu, I didn't see as many things that interested me and I didn't want a burger or a sandwich. That said, I settled on the fish and chips of which the fish was cod. (I believe they also had halibut fish and chips.) With it, I had a cola soft drink. I liked the platter, and I'm easy to please since I need a periodic fish and chips fix, and I also liked the portion size. The service was somewhere between good and indifferent. As long as the job got done, I overlooked it. I looked over the check when it arrived and the soft drink was on the tab at $5! It's not about being cheap - well, it sort of is - but it's that the Rivershore is not Fogo de Chao or a renowned downtown restaurant. There's a sort of psychology or consumer behavior that goes with pricing. That said, this $5 cola torqued me. Perhaps it's a way to still bump things up when customers are not ordering alcohol. I'm not sure. So, I'm at a standard 3 stars instead of a more enthusiastic 3 stars for the Rivershore where 2 rivers come together as well as 3 communities - Oregon City, Milwaukie, and Gladstone. It's fine. If you tend to rotate where you go out to eat and you like American grub, you can slot this restaurant into your rotation. read more

Super small portions on the fish and chips, more breading than fish. The taco salad had a completely inaccurate description on the menu, it didn't say that it had cheese or olives nor did it say that it was served in a tortilla shell. It was absolutely covered in olives (when I took them off and put them on the side of my plate it looked like more than a 1/3 of a cup on a tiny salad). The so called view of the river is mostly the parking lot and trees with a tiny sliver of the river visible. I would definitely skip this place. read more

This is the 3rd time we ate at the RIVERSHORE. We are new in town and this is the best restaurant we have gone to. The Easter Brunch today was lovley. The food today was great. The service was great. Staff is always so friendly. I am so glad we found this place. Can't wait for it to get warmer so we can sit out on the deck read more

Easter morning at Rivershore Bar and Grill was such a vibe. The views of the river were sooo peaceful, and the sunshine made everything feel extra cozy. Brunch was delicious (literally hit the spot after a long week), and the service was super sweet and welcoming. It felt like the perfect mix of relaxing and festive -- exactly how Easter morning should be Definitely one of those places that just feels good to be at. Can't wait to come back! Willa was super sweet at the host Stan! read more

Easy call. Check it out and see the "manager" do her majic. Nice clean place. Food is a 4/5. Another place that could be so cool. Unfortunately they will figure it out and start over. I'll try again in 6 months read more

We had heard that this place was amazing so drove out on a gorgeous day to check it out. I don't even know where to begin. The view is alright, but the food is the worst we have ever had. My husband ordered a medium rare ribeye, had to send it back because it was literally raw. The next one they sent was worse. But wait, there's more. I ordered a Ceasar salad and specifically asked the waiter if there were any anchovies of any kind on it, BECAUSE I AM DEATHLY ALLERGIC. He quickly says no and moves on. Ok cool. I love Caesar salad but am always so careful, because duh. Food comes out, I take a bite of salad and a. immediately tasted fish, and b. had to get out my EpiPen When the waiter returned a couple of times, my salad was sitting untouched in front of me, did he ask why? No he did not. Finally when he came back to clear the table and asked how everything was I said "are you absolutely positive there were no anchovies in the dressing"? He replied "well there's nothing on the salad but I guess in the dressing maybe". To which I replied "yeah I can't eat that, I'm allergic", I thought we had made that clear. Instead of saying "omg how can I make this right, I could have killed you, anything? He says, "can you eat cheesecake"? I was like, excuse me? Said no thank you. He says "are you sure"? Yeah I am sure dude. The bill was $110, $22 of which was the salad. Did they offer to comp it? No. The cherry on top is that the cheesecake that he had offered me to "fix things", that same cheesecake I refused, was on our bill, $10!!! You can't make this up. They finally took a whole $10 off our check. Wow thanks. Class act establishment. Please for the love of everything, don't disregard someone's direct question and carry on with your evening, and then offer them cheesecake to smooth it over. Your flippant disregard could cost someone their LIFE. Needless to say we will not be back. Also, seriously. The food SUCKS. read more

A group of family and friends went here to celebrate Thanksgiving together. While the service was amazing (our server was cheerful and kind), the food was horrible. I ordered the turkey dinner, and almost the entire meal was inedible. The turkey came as "slabs" of sliced meat with no flavors or spices. The stuffing looked like it came from a box and was far too salty. I don't know what they did to the mixed vegetables, but not only were they too salty, but whatever oils they cooked them ruined the flavor. Even the pumpkin pie was inedible. The clove and cinnamon were overpowering. Quite disappointing especially after paying $60 for a meal. Even my water came in a plastic cup. Other feedback from other members were very dry halibut and similar feedback on the vegetables. I am grateful I was with wonderful company. The poor meal didn't detract from my gratitude, but sadly, I don't think any of us will return. read more

This place has a delicious breakfast! The eggs were light and fluffy and the hash browns were amazing! Not to mention the service was excellent and the view of the water is gorgeous ! The coffee was great, very fresh! I highly recommend Rivershore!! read more

Went with a friend for brunch on Sunday, they were busy, but did not require a reservation. We sat outside looking at the river, there was ample parking. Food was great! We both ordered eggs Benedict, she had the traditional Benedict with Canadian bacon & I ordered mine with avocado instead of pork. Our dish came with potatoes, but the Benedict was filling enough. The eggs were perfectly poached. Our server was attentive and if we needed something there was always a server near by to ask. read more

Dry steak for breakfast. No seasoning , extremely thin Overly cooked MOLD on toast Fresh fruit was old read more

The food was alright, we got 4 different burgers and they were good but didn't leave the best after feeling, probably because of the oil. Tots were dry. Lemonade was pretty good. The service was alright took 15 minutes to get the food out. It's really old in there and super strong smell of Febreze like they're trying to mask the old smell. Solid 2.8 star would t recommend though read more

We had a nice dinner with our daughter. Service was fabulous and food was delicious. We haven't been here for a while. It was very nice

This is a nice location, basic and varied menu. Staff very friendly. None of the food stood out as foodie amazing...but definitely something to satisfy everyone. Check the menu. Can definitely recommend for a nice lunch which we had during our short stay in Oregon City. Check it out. read more

A great little spot with a fab view of the river. Food very good. Nothing fancy but good food nice atmosphere with a lovely flowing river view. We had at our table a rivershore salad with chicken, grilled salmon, ribs, and Cajun halibut. All tasty with warm tangy sourdough bread. All in all.... An easy drive from Lake Oswego over to Oregon City and not too crowded. Staff very pleasant. Tho we didn't sit outside very nice patio dining. DO NOT LET LOCATION prejudice you. It's a good spot!!!! I will be back! read more

There's a lovely view of the river that makes this place worthwhile. We had a group of 16 people for breakfast, and had arranged with the restaurant in advance. They refused to sit us near the windows, even though that too had been arranged weeks in advance (only two of the many tables near the windows were taken when we arrived, and the rest of the restaurant was empty when we arrived). Our waiter's attitude was rather gruff at best, and he never offered to refill our coffees even after several attempts to flag him down. One of us was able to loudly get the attention of a different waiter who begrudgingly refilled coffees for 4 of us and said the rest of the group would have to wait (we had been there for about a half hour at this point). The food was very good when it came out in stages (which was fine and to be expected with a large group). But for several of us, the food was served quite cold, meaning our gruff passive-agressive waiter was just letting it sit in the kitchen pass for a long time before bothering to pick it up. I would recommend trying this place if it's just 2-4 of you, but otherwise you may face the same problems our group did. We had ordered about $500 worth of breakfast items, but we won't be going back there again (our breakfast group of 12-20+ meets every week at a number of different restaurants, and repeatedly return to those with good food and service). It was a shame we couldn't tip just the kitchen staff, because they did their job well, it was just our particular waiter seemed to intentionally ruin the kitchen staff's good work. read more

Great food and service. Really enjoy this place. Bar serves the restaurant food. So amazing.

Food is a joke. It's over priced and gross! That being said it was thanksgiving evening. So I'm grateful they were open. Ether serve a good meal or just stop. Your $50. Tenderloin is packaged Gordon food service steak. Don't even try and deny it. 4 people $200. Everyone walked away disappointed. read more

After searching for a standard place my friends and I decided to try this place. We have been saying we would try it... and finally did! We ordered the Cajun Alfredo with toast, Seafood Alfredo with toast, Bacon Cheeseburger with fried & kids Chicken Strips & Fries. We did do dessert and it was Marion-berry Cheesecake & Chocolate Cake! We did a Cheesy Bread for Appetizers & side salads: garden and Cesar! It was all great! We didn't have any complaints one bit. Everything was fresh! Service was great! Our server I believe was Heather and she was amazing! We sat outside and it was such a perfect night. Not too hot and not too cold, all you need is a light jacket! Would we come again, YES! read more

14 mile drive for barely average expensive breakfast! They don't make real omelets they make rolled up scrambled eggs with filling, as most places do, with one local exception Tammy D'S, probably one of the few places on the planet. Any way my omelet contained the saltiest bacon I've ever eaten, just wasn't very good. The fried red potatoes were excellent as was the large biscuit. Val's scrambled eggs were ok, bacon was deep fried and overly cooked. So overall the breakfast was below average. Was going to try this place for dinner, but I think we'll pass. Service was excellent! The view is almost nonexistent! The trees on the bank of the river almost totally block the view. $50.00 for breakfast including tip, I don't think we'll ever be going back. read more

From the food to the service, everything is excellent! The bartender. Shayla she is awesome. She always has a smile on her face and willing to go the extra mile. I have watched that girl literally run the bar by herself with 20 people in there and she never missed the beat. The manager she is awesome. My wife and I frequent there at least four or five times a month and I have never had a bad experience. Nice atmosphere as the restaurant is across from the river beautiful view from the deck! Highly recommend it read more

I was staying at the hotel connected to this restaurant, and had a coupon. I decided to try it for breakfast. It wasn't busy at all (I think I was one of only two patrons) when I arrived a little after 7am. Service was relaxed and friendly. I sat outside, overlooking the Willamette. In my opinion, the view is the best part of this restaurant. The outdoor seating seemed to be on a porch that was covered. I went with the french toast, sausage and two eggs (over easy) breakfast. The food came out pretty quickly. The eggs were cooked well and the yolks runny. The french toast came with whipped butter and maple syrup, and was basic but tasty. The sausages were delicious and cooked just right, if not the prettiest. But I didn't care, they tasted great! The food was good, yet pretty simple. But the view and atmosphere were wonderful and the service kind and efficient. read more

Come for the view and server (Rachael, I believe) but not for the $100 for two, out-of-the-box tasting meal. I had the gorgonzola ribeye, which was $34 and Horrible. They just dumped some (likely) Costco gorgonzola crumbles on top, scooped some luke warm glaze over it and served this 1/2 thick ribeye with 'garlic' (tasted zero of it ) out-of-the box tasting mashed potatoes.. The calamari was mostly bread or crust or ..there was just so little meat. I thought some where just super small fried onion rings, it was that thin and crunchy. Boneless Fried Chicken - although the picture looks good, inside of that was a very small and rubbery piece of slippery chicken. read more

Visited restaurant and bar as we stayed 3 nights at Best Western. Staff at both venues were pleasant to deal with and very attentive to our needs. Servers were quite responsive to our ordering and food was delivered in a timely matter. We want to send kudos to our "number one " server.....Jenn. Also, thank you to Anthony and the rest of the staff for an enjoyable dining experience. BTW, the view from the restaurant was awesome as you look over the Willamette river. read more

This place is really a hidden gem. While it's attached to a hotel near a highway interchange, once you're inside the restaurant really shines. They have a nice deck for warm days so you can sit overlooking the river, or a cozy dining room for cold or rainy nights. There's a number of great deals to be found in the daily dinner specials and weekly wine discounts on Tuesday and Thursday. The staff is friendly, especially the wait staff showing their knowledge and attentiveness. Go for the winning team they have in the kitchen. The food was very expertly cooked, from my husband's medium rare filet mignon to my seared ahi tuna salad. We are sure to be back often. read more

This is an old time steak and seafood house. The atmosphere isn't bad, it kind of reminds you of stepping back into the 80's steakhouse. The food is pretty good and solidly prepared with very reasonable pricing. It's not a Ruth's Chris, but it is solid and a good value for the dollar. read more

Since we've moved to here, We always wanted to try there especially in the dry and beautiful season (lol). Finally we had an opportunity to stop by. We ordered shrimp Caesar salad and chicken cob salad. Quite honestly we were not really expecting anything great at the restaurant in the motel. But!!!!! Both of salads were freshly made ( looked like and tasted like)! None of the lettuce was browned and or included piece of bottom of lettuce!!!! That was impressed! Grilled chicken were warm( seems like they cooked) and salad bowl was cold! They also served warm bread and butter. Waiter ( Julia) was super kind, friendly, helpful and welcoming. We'll definitely go back to try other menu. We gives 3.5stars today and will update soon! read more

Restaurant is located at one end of the hotel. It has great views of the river. Located off a road that is not busy. Bar area is ok, just a little dated. Has food 2x over my stay. Ate in the bar area. Bartender was slammed. They keep here busy. She was still very attentive. Food quality was ok. Filet was not that tender. A bit chewy. Have not seen a bacon wrapped one in long while. Drinks were strong, they don't have a great cocktail list, so you best know your drinks. I will return to try a few other items. read more
