I had a fantastic brunch date with my mom here when I was visiting. We enjoyed everything that was put on our plates. On this day we shared and order 1 chilaquiles and 1 Banana Foster French Toast. Both were equally delicious. French toast was sweet but not overly sweet. The Chilaquiles was so good came with a green salsa and wasn't too spicy. Next I had a fabulous cocktail The Golden Mylk!!! Yessss, So many flavors going on. Devine. Until next time. Service was a 10 as well.

Immaculate vibes. You walk in and feel transported in time. Not to mention the drinks were amazing and the BLT was unreal. Thick cut bacon, garlic aioli, Texas toast- YUM.

We had a good experience at Radio Room. From the moment we walked in, the staff was warm and welcoming. The service was smooth and efficient--our server was knowledgeable about the menu and offered helpful recommendations. The food took a while to come out and everything looked great. Everything was good for the most part, but the shrimp in the shrimp in grits didn't taste fresh. The Mac and cheese was bland so our friend ordered a side of tomato soup to dump into it to give it some flavor. The ambiance was relaxed yet stylish for an old school vibe. There was a live DJ spinning vinyl records which was pretty cool. Our server was nice and when she noticed the shrimp wasn't touched on the shrimp and grits, she asked if everything was okay. We informed her it tasted old and she apologized and offered to take half price off the bill, which was really kind of her to do! Will definitely come back and try other menu times.

We went to the radio room as a celebration. And it truly was a celebratory thing between the fun drinks, loud music, and the passive amount of garlic on just about everything we ordered. It was very fun. The service was quick even though they were busy and although they gave us the wrong side to go with the BLT, which was delicious they very quickly came out with the correct side without any trouble. Completely fun atmosphere and for the BLT alone, I will totally be back.

Friends with Benedicts

The egg Benedict - not good. The scramble sandwich- I had to drench it in hot sauce. The potato had good crunch and no flavor. Salt, pepper, and ketchup, nothing helped :( THE VIBES THO!!! 10/10 I would just go back cause it's cool inside. Maybe the cocktails are better but the food is icky. Service was okay. Nothing special.

I came here with my family today, we just got drinks and happy hour foods. Honestly very glad we only got happy hour foods since they were cheaper, because had any of the food we tried been full price, it would've been an even greater disappointment. I got the chicken sandwich, bread was horrible, chicken overly salty and just tasted bad. Didn't even eat half of it, left it on the plate. Chicken wings took forever to come out which is understandable but they were so crispy, borderline burnt even, tough to chew. The birria tacos aside from the tiny portion size, not a great taste, the consome was super bland and runny, the tacos with the pineapple salsa just taste strange. The service was alright, the server was nice and all, it was impressive she took all our orders and remembered who got what, and didn't need to write any of it down. However, she just didn't check on us enough, never asked how the food even was (I would've been honest about it) and just overall the service was so-so. The saving grace here is the drinks, just based on assumption because I personally didn't try any of them. They have a good happy hour for the drinks, I believe starting at $9 for a decent selection. In saying all that I definitely wouldn't return here, the food was just overall not worth it, even at happy hour prices. Probably just stick to drinks here for happy hour if you're interested, but just know there are other places with better food out there.

Found this place and so glad we walked in! Like stepping back into the 1950s. Adorable ambience. Great service. We did not have time to stay for a bite to eat, but their menu looked amazing. We ordered drinks which were truly wonderful. A drink called the Nordic Negroni. It was really wonderful, made with aquavit. If you like licorice, this is the drink for you. Parking on a weekend nights on Alberta Street is always a bit chancy. Give yourself extra time to find off street parking.

Radio Room -- Portland, OR Every now and then The Açaí Guy must step away from the bowl and investigate... other forms of nourishment. Enter Radio Room. First impression walking in: imagine an old-school diner and a Portland hipster café had a baby. That's the vibe. Retro bar, warm lighting, cool crowd, and the kind of place where you could either grab a quick bite or accidentally stay for three hours. Now here's the weird part. The prices. I checked the menu twice. Then I checked it again. Because everything felt... suspiciously cheap. In a good way. Like you've discovered a pricing loophole that the rest of Portland hasn't noticed yet. Menu is refreshingly simple too. One page. No 17-section manifesto about locally sourced radishes. Just food. Ordered the Chicken Parm Sandwich and a margarita. The sandwich? Ridiculous. Tender chicken, perfectly sauced, soft bread holding everything together like a true team captain. This thing was a full meal disguised as a sandwich. Easily one of the better chicken parms I've run into. The margarita? Dangerous. Way too easy to drink. The kind where you casually order another before realizing you might need a bowl tomorrow to restore balance. Sat at the bar and the service was excellent -- smiles, conversation, and good recommendations. Always a good sign when the staff actually seem like they enjoy the place too. Would I come back? Absolutely. Rating 4.4 / 5 Açaí Berries Breakdown * Taste: 4.5/5 * Value: 5/5 (seriously... check the prices) * Vibes: 4.6/5 * Service: 5/5 * Margarita Danger Level: High Current Status: Portland Hidden Gem Lesson Learned: Sometimes the best bowls... are sandwiches. Recovery Plan: Açaí tomorrow. -- The Açaí Guy

Classic Breakfast was on point
Terrance S.

Definitely a great place for food and beverages. Would give it 5 stars, but they only had beef and pork options. More restaurants need to offer turkey or chicken for breakfast for more healthy fare. However, everything from the French toast, to burger, to classic breakfast was on point. Great location, great staff, great patio, and welcoming ambiance. Don't miss this neighborhood gem.

I had some kind of negative impression of this restaurant and bar for apparently no reason whatsoever because my recent visit made me fall in love! The restaurant area is diner-like and the bar feels a little dark and divey, but in all the right ways. I'll be back for the vibes. My spouse and I popped in for a quick pre-dinner drink. I feel like getting small plates and a bevy or two isn't always appreciated by servers, but the staff was welcoming and attentive. The snack we got was delicious and I would order it again anytime. Full bar with a soda gun is so appreciated when I have a hard time finding no-sugar + non-alcohol beverages in so many establishments. I look forward to accepting my friends' invitations to come here from now on!

Love the atmosphere here, it has such a cozy 70s retro vibe! It was my first time here, and I ordered the Eggs Benedict with potatoes and a glass of orange juice. The portion size was perfect, and the Eggs Benedict was cooked beautifully o.o The tomato paired perfectly with the runny yolk and their delicious sauce. The potatoes were flavorful with just the right amount of crunch. Service was fast and attentive. I'll definitely be coming back to try more from the menu!

This place is a gem. The vibes here are amazing. The place is so cool and quirky and kind of made me smile the whole time I was there. There are a couple of bar counters, lots of cool seating with retro tables and booths and an outside space with heaters and small fire pits. So good! I had a few happy hour cocktails and a huge basket of the most delicious French fries! I didn't have anything else but my sense is it would be good. This is a great place. I wish I could transport it to Philly.

Chickpea fritters. Really liked these
Bianca J.

I always have a great food and drink experience here. I love that they have happy hour daily, an outdoor seating area and a rooftop! Their appetizers here have always been good (I've never had an actual dinner or meal here) and their drinks even more phenomenal. Never gah a bad drink here! They have great options for happy hour too! I tried the birria tacos as they seem to be a newer item on the menu and I liked them, but definitely could use a bit more spice and flavor in the meat. Sadly, my friend had a taco that was ALL FAT and thankfully I saw it so she could remove it. Kind of gross lol But other than that, great experience!

Cool counter seating in the dining room

Five dishes for 2 of us was more than enough +2 dessert +2 drinks…read more The wasabi salad was good. Perfect dressing for my husband too much dressing for me. I really like the scallops. Not a fan of the jalapeño grits because the heat built up and I would like to have some bread to help cut the heat. Our absolute favorite was udon dish. Another dish where I wish I had bread too scoop up all the sauce. The Tonkasu sandwiches were way better than the place at Bridgeport. The beef check melted in our mouth - another dish. I wish I had rice with. Moral of the story, need carbs to make the meal better Beautiful ambience. Amazing service. We dropped the chopstick and they got us a new one before we asked. Was surprised they didn't give us new plates unless asked because mine was covered in all the different sauces and I didn't wanna mix the wasabi dressing with other dishes.

Food: 4/5 Service 3/5…read moreAmbiance: 5/5 This is a very cute spot for a nice girls dinner or date night. I brought my kid and it was ok but probably won't recommend it. I liked everything off the raw menu besides the mushroom handroll because the salt level was at about 300%. My fave was probably the yellowtail crudo. The raw stuff came out fairly quickly then we waited a very long time for the cooked entrees to come out. There was at least a 20 minute hiatus, which I did not appreciate. The server checked on us a couple times during the wait but it's just kind of awkward when the wait is that long. I was really looking forward to the duck duck rice because pictures on Yelp made it look like a crispy rice, if it was in fact, not. The udon was our absolute favorite. The snapper was also delicious but it came very late. The alcatra was just ok, I actually couldn't take much of the tomato flavor in it.

The front patio was a nice place to enjoy golden hour and our service was exceptional. My dad got a brandy alexander, mom got a piña colada on the rocks and later a pink lady, and I got something like a Negroni (they make Negronis but I asked the server to choose something interesting and the result was absolutely splendid). Cheers to the professionals who helped make our visit even more special.

Nice cocktail bar with quality cocktails and lively fun vibes…read more Highlights: - Nice curved bar that takes up most of the front room. Also a side room - Lots of cocktails on the menu in categorized sections (bright and crisp, rich and robust etc). Also has a 1 liner describing the cocktail as well - Vesper: went off menu with my go to and ones one of the better ones I had! 5 stars - Dream Weaver: enjoyed my first selection with pandan. 4 stars - Can make reservations which I always like to know I have spot. Thought they were only for the side room so was thrilled when we were in the main bar. - Fun music - Has a bites menu if you get hungry which I appreciate Midlights: - Bit dark to see the menu so used the handy candle nearby - Was on the top 50 best of North America bar list but in 2022 so it's been a bit Lowlights: - Doomsday Device: was in the spicy category with hot honey and peppercorn but was more of a mellow fruity cocktail to me where I didn't taste any spice - Didn't get to try any bites as we came from dinner but would have loved to try the 2 bite tostadas

It's on the sweet side, but I needed something sweet as a buffer since some of the dishes we ordered were a bit too salty. -Thai-Style Ceviche, 11/10. No friggin' notes. I highly recommend. Portion is a bit small, because I could have eaten MORE. -Sweet & Sour Fried Chicken was decent. We ordered the Small and it was about 5-6 boneless pieces. Very unique. I recommend to try if you like fried chicken. -Wok-Fried Yu Choy was wayyyy tooooo salty. Hubs & I wanted some greens and it was fried with generous amounts of garlic, but it just got saltier and saltier as we ate it. -White Curry w/ Brisket Burnt Ends, this dish was a little bit of a mixed bag. The white curry (roasted cauliflower + coconut cream) was delicious, but did it pair well with the Brisket Burnt Ends? Not really IMO. I don't think the flavors match. I'm not exactly sure what would pair well with the white curry, maybe some veg or tofu...but BBQ fusion with the curry wasn't the best. 2 unisex restrooms available, the one I used was clean. Service was a little scattered. We got the Yu-Choy first, followed by the ceviche a few minutes later. But the Fried Chicken and White Curry took a while to come (about another 10-15 mins. to come). We were lucky to find some street parking in the neighborhood nearby.
