I came to Flying Fish for my birthday a few years ago and still think about it. The oysters were…read moreincredibly fresh, the fish tacos was excellent, and the biggest surprise for me was the sake flights! Order before seating yourself. Covered outdoor seating only, but they have a lot of patio heaters here so you are set during the colder months. Fairly quick service. The staff here is always so helpful and kind! I also love that they have a fish market attached, so you can take home fresh seafood after your meal too. Everything feels fresh, local, and thoughtfully sourced. Definitely worth stopping by if you're a seafood fan, even for their fish market to go.

The restaurant next door has some fancy menu items, but you may be dining at a picnic table in a tent. Service was mediocre. The food took a very long time, but it was Sunday dinner time. While everything was delicious, I was beyond disappointed with how TINY my fish pieces were in my 3pc fish & chips. I literally had jojos bigger, uhhh. good luck if you get fish and chips! Great jojos, slaw good. My partner loved the spring salad with steelhead. I had oysters here a long time ago (see pics)

Decadent is the best one word to use to describe this food. Our server Brianna was attentive,…read morefunny, and did a great job. Great environment, good service, great food! Details: My friends and I split the steak tartare, smoked fish board and aarewasser cheese. All of these were great, but my favorite was the steak tartare (crazy considering this is a seafood place). We then split the clam chowder, king salmon, and grilled swordfish - all of these were amazing with the swordfish being the best of the three. The clam chowder was comforting, the kind salmon was so soft that you didn't even need to chew it, and the swordfish was just AMAZING. \We also have several mocktails and cocktails which were just as great. Thank you, Brianna, for your recommendations! Will definitely come back!

How have I never heard of Southpark Seafood before? This was…read moremy first time here, and my friend - who's been here plenty of times, recommended we stop in before Japanese Breakfast concert. The oysters were incredibly fresh, and the oyster shooters were hands down my favorite thing we ordered. We also got pasta, which was rich, comforting, and way more filling than I expected. Honestly, this place is a seafood lover's dream. Great food and great service!

Stopped in at Jake's while making my way to the airport and it did not disappoint!…read more I only had time for appetizers and some drinks, but will definitely be back to try more. I had the Hazelnut Crusted Brie, Raspberry Jam, and Crostini. Talk about a cheesy goey heaven There's also tons of eclectic decor to gander at while you sip on one of their amazing cocktails, I highly recommend the spiced raspberry cooler. Sitting there with my luggage next to me staring out the big windows, made me feel like a protagonist in a French film.

Jake's was recommended by one of my coworkers while I was in Portland visiting one of our company…read moresites, and I have to say, it ended up being one of the best recommendations I got all trip. The restaurant is within walking distance of downtown hotels, so I enjoyed the walk over while taking in a little of the city. As soon as I walked in, I loved the atmosphere. It has a classic old school feel with lots of history, photos of celebrities who've dined there over the years, a beautiful bar, and a timeless charm that's hard to find these days. I kept it simple and ordered the chef's seafood special, and wow...it completely caught me by surprise. It reminded me a little of crawfish étouffée, but with more seafood and its own unique flavor. It's hard to describe, but it was absolutely delicious and one of the best meals I had during my trip. The drinks were excellent too (sorry, no pictures because I was too busy enjoying them), and the service was friendly from start to finish. Business trips don't always come with memorable meals, but this one definitely did. The next time I'm in Portland, Jake's will be one of my first stops.

Wow we were in for a surprise! The waiter was very friendly and efficient, and kept the service moving. We never waited too long for anything either, whether it be cocktails, water fills, the bill. The food was delicious! Unusual combinations and flavorful, I wish I could remember what each dish was - I do remember we loved each one and wish this restaurant was in SF so we could come back regularly. Very happy with this restaurant and their entire staff!

It's a relaxing space - well-designed, with spacious half-moon booths in a room with floor-to-ceiling windows and soothing folksy blues on the sound system. I had the Bullard Breakfast and went the virtuous route with the avocado option. Beautifully presented, served with a trio of condiments: butter, jam, and ketchup. The potatoes were delicious. One star off for the cold, rock-hard toast. One surprise on the way out: a "Kitchen Appreciation Fee" of 3% appeared on the itemized receipt, but not on the menu, the website, or any visible signage. Service was attentive throughout.

Bar is hopping and their happy hour can't be beat. Their stew (oyster) is simple, filled with plump, fresh poached oysters and though, again, simple it really hits the spot. Chicken sandwich was great, served as more of a Po Boy, which while not listed as such, fantastic. $24 dollars on happy hour for a dozen fresh shucked oysters and it's your choice, which is crazy, you can get a mix of whatever they've got! Most places will have shooters or you don't get to pick, wow! Fried clams were also a hit, best I've ever had. Large, tender (which is hard), and even the happy hour portion is enough for a main for me. There's even a little pepper in there I think. Most places, they are dry, small and over fried. Steamed mussels, wonderful. Service is also flawless, many folks around helping and making you feel welcome and comfortable. I know nothing about nothing when it comes to running a place like this, but I loved to see that any person is willing to assist with customers and keep the flow and pace going. I've been to many establishments where you can't get someone to save your life, and paid double or triple. I've heard this place could be in danger of closing, I hope not, that would be a serious loss for Portland. Big thank you and shout out to a great human being working the bar that I haven't seen in over 20 years from high school! Keep rocking!

I've visited twice and ordered the fresh oysters each time. The oysters were lovely both times…read more However this second visit (7/13/26) had me checking myself into the hospital the next day after *severe* gastrointestinal upset. I've had food poisoning before but nothing like this. While I understand it is a risk to consume raw oysters, I am sad that it happened to me here. Also, the shrimp cocktail as others have mentioned is not a true shrimp cocktail - it's baby shrimp. Would have loved to have had that clarification before ordering. Will I return? I don't know. What I endured in the last 24 hours leaves me skeptical about ever eating raw oysters again. Staff were attentive and friendly though. We sat outside and I didn't appreciate the punk music across the way. Kind of took away from the dining vibe.

On Wednesdays, oysters are just $1 each, so of course we had to order two dozen to share! We also tried the tartare, which came with some toasted bread, and the gnocchi - which was rich! I'd give the oysters an 8/10, they were fresh overall, although I did come across a few shell fragments. They're best known for their incredible house cured meats, so I was pleasantly surprised to see oysters on the menu. Even on a Wednesday night, the restaurant was packed.
