You're definitely in for a treat for steaks here. RingSide is your high end steakhouse, not cheap by any means! Our waiter Arlyn was super awesome, he is the definition of a perfect restaurant waiter! Hands down. The outside looks pretty plain but once you walk inside, you're in for a treat, the place is dark, romantic, and brings a nice steakhouse vibe to your dining experience. You must get their onion rings (yes they are perfectly batter and delicious) and is a yummy starter. I'm a ribeye person, my ribeye was perfectly tasty and cooked medium rare. My steak was cooked to perfection! I'm sure you can't go wrong with any cuts here. Thanks to the free crème brûlée for my friend's birthday, tasty and perfectly sweet as well. Did I mention the valet parking works on gratuity and there's no charge? Wow! A perfect high end steak spot for sure!

I got extra sauces and mashed potatoes to go with it. We also got the mushrooms and two lobster tails. The main meal was so delicious. Our server was so great and knowledgeable about the menu.

Foggy notion was a beautiful early grey infused whisky/amontillado sipper topped with vanilla cream. Blade Runner with cognac and cocoa butter Campari was a nice boulevardier twist. Food is family style and portions are huge. Good for a group that likes to share. Loved the crispy brussels, creamy whipped ricotta, and delicata squash- there were so many other things I wanted to try, but even three plates was too much food for the two of us. Definitely recommend and hope to return.

I'm not a huge whiskey fan myself but was intrigued by the whiskey based cocktails and got the Foggy Notion which ended up being delicious.

I also tried my boyfriend's Moon Age Daydream which is a lighter yuzu gin based cocktail if you're looking for something sweeter and more fruity. I wish we had a chance to try the food but we walked here after dinner and were stuffed. Great hospitality and such a nice date night spot. Definitely would recommend!

I had been touring…read morethe cathedral of music, at Music Millennium and I asked the gentleman at the counter where was a good spot to eat. He recommended Laurelhurst, and he was right on. I have been on a Reuben kick, and the best remains at Goose Hallow. But this was a close second, as it was great. I had a half sandwich, and I am glad I did, as it was quite enough. I had the Monsignor Murphy, which featured lots of House Made Pastrami, Swiss Cheese, Sauerkraut and Russian Dressing. I typically like a Reuben on marbled rye, as they served it on a Griddled Como Bread...and it was great. I didn't get her name at the order counter, but she was so friendly and engaging as well. Since this was my first time to the restaurant, she was able to provide me with a wealth of information. I will be back...and you can count on that.

We did end up sending it back (which i hate doing) and got it redone adding another 10isj minutes of waiting on top of our already pretty long wait (but again it was busy so we didnt rlly care much for the wait) but i did get full off of the sides by the time the redo came out The redo definitely tasted alot better, it didnt taste burnt which was good but in general didnt really have much flavor. I will say the potatoes were good, bell peppers were okay, unfortunately nothing was great....we ended up spending around ~$210 for two people for a meal that really did not satisfy either of us, we'll maybe give it another try on a less busy day but it was rough considering this was also our anniversary dinner

The lunch portions were incredibly generous, especially the grilled cheese and fries, which were actually a kids meal! The buffalo chicken Caesar wrap was a little lacking in Caesar flavor, but where it lacked in Caesar, it definitely made up for it with the buffalo flavor, and it was still incredible. 10/10 across the board! The customer service was also amazing, and the staff were genuinely such a pleasure to interact with. And the little doodle on the bag was just the cutest added bonus! Definitely left much happier with this visit than my first one!

I went with the pulled pork sandwich, which was good and flavorful, and paired really well with their pepper & cabbage coleslaw on the side. We also split a cup of the roasted red pepper and tomato bisque, which was honestly a highlight of the whole meal -- rich, well-balanced, and worth ordering on its own. Drinks deserve a shoutout too: their non-alcoholic options were great. My friend raved about the guava lemonade, and I had the blueberry vinegar shrub, which was excellent -- bright, crisp, and refreshing.

There was the expected long wait due to Father's Day, but no worries. Family time was spent in the lounge. I was remembering my dad, as he always had the Fried Chicken and Chicken Gizzards. Both were incredible. My vegetarian wife had the hamburger patty, (now an Impossible Burger versus the Garden Burger). Our daughter opted for the Sirloin Steak as she wanted flavor which the Filet does not allow, but not the fat that my favorite, the Rib Eye offers. It was so good. MY Father-in-law and Mother-in-law, both had the Prime Rib. Hers was a bit rare, but he just switched and all was good. Estrella was simply perfect, and one I would ask for again. I will be back again, and again, and again.

We are typically brunch people, making it here most often on a Saturday or Sunday for a late brunch. Their benedicts are to die for... truly, they're all wonderful. Their Laser Potato is out of this world. Truly, my favorite item on their menu. It is fabulous in all ways. I often take a side of it home just to enjoy later. We recently tried them for dinner. Their muscles are OUT OF THIS WORLD. Truly, the best I've ever had. This beats living in the southeast on the coast, any west-coast seafood restaurant, and every place I've ever enjoyed in Italy. They've certainly topped the muscle game. Highly recommend Olympic Provisions. I will gladly vouch that the negative reviews are from the haters, just to hate. The overall experience has never been anything less than fantastic. Photos to follow (hopefully, if I can find them! HA!) Enjoy OP next time you're in PDX!
