This was me second time here and a different season so the menu changed. I had the whole pan fried river trout and it was delicious, deboned nicely and light. The butter, garlic polenta was lovely, rich buttery and garlicy. Overall the meal was really nice but the trout was outstanding, fresh, flakey, moist and mild. cooked perfectly, please order this if you eat here read more

What a great lunch! I brought a large group in and the team totally delivered! The service was awesome! They took our orders fast and the food was out before we knew it. I got the smash burger and it was delicious! Cooked perfectly and seasoned well. The bun and toppings were nice and fresh. I am looking forward to coming back! Great service, great food! read more

Delicious isn't even the world i'd describe the food it's phenomenal, So much detail in the flavor and presentation. The service was also great the servers are super friendly and answer any questions & check in. The ambience is super cozy and open although when full it can feel a bit crowded but nothing suffocating- Its very fast paced when busy too which I enjoy. All together this is the perfect spot for a quick bite or a date night. Definitely will be dining again! read more

My friend and I visited here to kill a few hours before our flight. We had a bunch of different food and enjoyed everything. Only negatives: Our server was kinda MIA for most of our visit. We weren't really sure who she was to even flag her down when we needed her. Our food took a long time to arrive. Everything except the mac and cheese. It didn't seem too busy for it to be taking so long but everything was still good and a pleasant experience. Perfect place to chill and enjoy some drinks/snacks with some friends! read more

I ordered the King Salmon dinner. It was terrible, for 33 dollars not worth it. No flavor, very bland. Service was slow and our waiter was in a hurry ‍ read more

Delish and love the vibes! Nice menu. I would have loved the mac and cheese not so soft, but the flavors were good. The brussel sprouts were the best I've had. Sticky, sweet, cooked perfectly. read more

Ambiance: 7.5/10 nice open air spot right on a popular street in PDX. Good for a chill first date on a nice night where they have the windows open. Service: 9/10 Trinity was awesome. She was easy to talk with, and happens to be a super talented musician @trinityjane on Spotify. She should get a raise. Food: 6.5/10 Half chicken: I appreciated the use of in season veggies (ie snap peas) but this dish didn't wow me. I thought the chicken was well seasoned and moist . I thought the green sauce and pickled onions went well with the chard broccolini but I probably would try a different dish next time. read more

Came here on a Thursday for a friend's birthday dinner. She had a reservation so we were seated right away. Our server was very friendly and attentive and was patient with us as we waited for all of our party to arrive and to order. The vibe of the place is cozy with fireplaces, lighting, and the intentional bar and dining room seating arrangements. There was also coveted outdoor seating on the side perfect for summer. It was a beautiful sunny day so there were a good amount of people coming in and out. We got drinks and most of their appetizers to share among our group. My favorite was the crispy Brussels sprouts and the crab cakes. The bread was a little more charred than preferred the olive butter was tasty. The steak kebob and Mac and cheese (not pictured) were nice and filling as well. I did not see much of a dessert menu but maybe we had to ask but Papa Haydn is just a block down so we went there after instead. I could see this spot as a great date or friend catch up place with its variety of drinks and food for a relaxing and yummy dining experience. read more

So cozy! The atmosphere is so charming. We sat at the bar and ordered cocktails. My friend had the Mac n cheese and we ordered the charcuterie board. Everything was delicious. The drinks were so well made and the mulled cider was the perfect warm drink for a chilly fall evening. Grateful how attentive the bartenders were. If I lived in Portland, I would be here often. read more

Semi-upscale restaurant with nice modern yet cozy decor and a real fireplace in the middle of the restaurant. I had the lavender ginger soda which was nice and refreshing. The clam buccatini is pretty good, the sauce is buttery and garlicky and there is a fiat amount of clam on top. Some of the clam taste less fresh than I would like. The service was good and food came in a reasonable time. read more

Good prices for the quality. Service was good also. Have only had lunch but will definitely stop in to try dinner soon.

Overall, pretty good breakfast experience. There were some things that were really good and other things that were just average. The steak and eggs was cooked perfectly and not overdone. Definitely something worth trying. The basic breakfast of the eggs and potatoes was just your average eggs and potatoes. Though it is kind of hard to mess up eggs and potatoes. The Dutch pancake was really good. Service was a bit on the slow side so don't go if you are in a time crunch. Also, I think they make their bloody Mary mix homemade possibly if you were looking for that traditional morning bloody Mary this one is a bit different. I could not put an exact reason why it was different but it is not your traditional bloody Mary mix. Try it if you're looking for something new. read more

Perfect for a dog date from start to finish. Easy to reserve a patio spot on Tock. The hostess saw me outside and came to greet me so I didn't have to worry about trying to check in inside with my pup. They brought out a special dog bowl and dog menu in addition to their human menu. Bella's eggs and chicken came out hot and fresh. We both enjoyed the outdoor heaters and weren't cold even though it was 38 degrees outside. Staff were friendly and kind which Bella loved. All my food items and the espresso martini were delicious. Bella and I will definitely be back! read more

The food is excellent and the atmosphere is beautiful outside. Unfortunately the food took way too long and the menu is limited but the portion sizes are great. We were the only table at the beginning and it wasn't that busy and we didn't get checked on once the food was dropped. We also had to get up from the table to pay because the server never came back. read more

I was in town on vacation and looking for a spot to be able to sit at the bar and grab a nice meal. I was so glad I chose here! The ambiance is very new American chic, the staff are friendly and the bartenders are very attentive. I tried the seasonal pumpkin beer and wasn't a fan so decided on a local ipa instead per the bartenders recommendation. It was a good choice! For the meal I chose a Cesar salad and the chicken pot pie. The salad was not my favorite, solely for the fact the kitchen adds small slivers of lemon peel tossed in, which added a refreshing zest but was bitter when biting into the peel bits making it hard to finish the salad personally. The chicken pot pie is seasonal I was told, but SO good and flavorful with perfectly shredded chicken and a flakey crust to complete it. I was too full for dessert but the options looked great, and I'd recommend this place to anyone in the area! read more

This has quickly become my partner and I's favorite spot. We've been here multiple times and are always impressed by the amazing service and flavorful food. Tonight, Ana made our experience especially memorable. She was attentive, remembered our gluten-free needs, and even labeled our to-go box--such a thoughtful touch. The attention to detail was truly exceptional. As someone from Las Vegas, this felt like true fine-dining level service. read more

Fireside - Kabobs - New American Near Me - Portland, Oregon

The vibe is there, but the taste could be better... the pros: My partner made us a reservation at 5:30 for an hour later on a Friday night. We show up, and there's a line. The hostess was super efficient, so we were seated within a few minutes. The ambiance was inviting with their warm lights and gorgeous hanging plants. The cons- However, I ordered the tuna melt for $19 and would not recommend it. Too basic. Really the two items that were a letdown were the wagyu kabobs which tasted like oversauced steak bites (not worth $18, wagyu??) and the grilled como bread (bland, not a good look - the olive butter was much too light in flavor and could do with a bit of salt flakes) it's a great place to bring people who aren't familiar with Portland's food gems. read more

Their happy hour menu items are a great deal! I sat and ordered at the bar. I think the bartender was annoyed that I only ordered food. His irritation wasn't enough to stop me from enjoying the food though! If you're thinking about eating here, I'd maybe recommend eating at a table instead. read more

Wonderful ambiance, great service and the food was so tasty! We went for brunch and were very pleased.

We accidentally went in here coz we are really starving after the long drive from oregon coast. We had our late lunch in here and We thought the food will be great since the interior is well designed. Very unique pieces and they have a bar side too. But not really a fan of their food. Few selections from the menu, kinda expensive, serving is okay and the service is good. We ordered the fish and we are disappointed that its not really good. It has no taste at all but the presentation is good, will not come back again. read more

Very cute spot in Northwest Portland! I happened across the restaurant while walking around and the ambiance drew me in. It was pretty busy even on a weeknight but fortunately didn't wait long for a table on their patio. Patio was nice with heaters and greenery; the inside was really vibey too. They have a solid menu with great shareable small plates. I ended up getting the pretzel with cheese & Fireside Chicken Caesar. Both were tasty! Service was quick and staff was super friendly. I liked this spot! read more

Not a great experience overall. Very hipster in all the wrong ways- trying too hard across both the drink and food menus. Crowded. Overpriced. Oddly stuck up. Some culinary genius decided that every dish & drink here needed a spice element that no one in my group could shake. Total palate ruiner. We each left over half our drinks and food sitting- couldn't stomach it. The poor ambiance & service ensured we didn't even want to even sit or talk. Paid and left still hungry. read more

We had a family night out in Portland and chose Fireside. The vibes were amazing and loved the atmosphere. Our server was busy handling more tables than she should have probably, but she handled our table really well. We did wait about 45 minutes to get our appetizers and shortly after that our food came out. My teenager ordered the Mac n cheese with bacon. Unfortunately it came without bacon and was pretty thick. My husband ordered the ribeye, and noted as soon as he cut into it, it would not be a hit. The smashed potatoes however were delicious. He noticed a lot of people had burgers so he will probably give that a try next time. I got the lemon thyme chicken and it was actually really good. A lot more food than I was expecting. Overall, willing to give it another try. The price point was decent and I think just a few different menu items will be picked. Also, our server did feel bad about the wait times and the mess up on a few things but handled it well. read more

We have not been here for quite some time and came to celebrate a birthday. The interior is striking with the indoor fireplace. Our cocktails were so good, with the lemon drop the best I've ever had.

Ambience, check. Great spot for happy hour on NW 23rd. The Brussels sprouts are SO good and come in a very generous portion. For drinks, we tried the Bee's Knees, Vieux Carre and their House G&T which had turmeric and plenty of garnish. Service was friendly and quick. I'd be back again when in the mood for a drink and some snacks! read more

Great first meal in Portland!! We stumbled by this place since our Airbnb was just up the road and I'm so glad we stopped here. Everything was delicious and service was great!!!! We especially loved the kabobs but literally everything was so tasty and hit the spot. We sat outside which was nice and casual and had heat warmers. Their fresh bread came with a delicious butter that had little pieces of olives in it which was fantastic. The chicken pot pie could have easily been someone's entree but we shared it. Extremely satisfying meal! read more

Lunch has small plates and sandwiches. I chose the half Caesar salad with blackened prawns. The Caesar is kale and radicchio as opposed to romaine. The dressing is garlicky. The prawns were perfect. Shared a small bowl of Mac n cheese which was sharp and filling. The olives are served warm. I wish I had ordered bread with them. The house made sodas: cucumber dill and lavender ginger were not too sweet and very flavorful. Service was great. Ambience is lively and comfortable like sitting in a friend's dining room. read more

Very pleasant waitstaff (Trinity recognized us on our 2nd visit) and ambiance-- multiple fireplaces and large windows out to the street). We love the brunch menu, and the prices are very reasonable. We can heartily recommend the Dutch Baby, the seasonal hash, and the soup. My spouse gives the coffee 4 stars (and he's picky) and enjoyed the presentation (see photo). I think $5 for tea is a bit much, but they use Smith teas so it's high quality (and tasty). This has become our go-to place for a hearty, sit-down lunch spot. read more

Tasty lunch on 23rd in Portland with family that were in town visiting from the East Coast. This is a cute, cozy spot and we had never tried it before. We decided to take a chance, I'm not gonna lie I was a bit nervous because they do not have a huge menu but they do everything right! We ordered Mac n cheese, crab cakes and a pretzel with cheese & grainy mustard to share. I enjoyed the French dip sando and hubby ordered the pork belly sando. Both were freaking delish! Everyone was happy with what they ordered and we will definitely be back. read more

I have walked by Fireside many times and yet for some reason never went in. After seeing them on an Eater PDX article for Cozy Restaurants I decided to finally go in - it definitely lived up to the description. Everything here was incredible - the cocktails were so delicious and the food was full of flavor. The French dip wasn't our favorite but that's because we overlooked that the aoli had horseradish. I will definitely be returning. read more

On a warm/clear day this has the best ambiance in the area. It sits right on 23rd street and the top half of the walls are all windows which open upward and give an indoor-outdoor fusion to the space, you can hang your arm over the wall and feel like you're getting the liveliness of the neighborhood while enjoying a meal. I started with the orange creamsicle, maybe i just had different expectations but i didn't love it. So watery, i wanted it to have a thicker creamier texture. The food was okay, i got a burger and my friend had the vegetarian bowl. Her bowl was kind of slim pickings and the burger was cool. The setting is what sells this place, next time I'll just have a drink and maybe try a different plate. read more

Food was great and server was great as well. I was taken aback by how great the steak and eggs were for brunch. 2 excellent sauces on a plate is tough typically but they hit it out of the park. On top of which the server was super nice. I have allergies and she was attentive/patient as I changed my order about 100 times. read more
