It's not like RingSide needs a review from me, but I'll give it anyways. A bucket list place in Portland well worth the hype. It's a classic steakhouse done to perfection. Start to finish RingSide is elite. Is it the best steakhouse in Portland? I'll leave that for you to decide. But you in fact have to go decide. That's a given.

OCTOPUS
Stephanie K.

I didn't know it was possible to close down a bar on decaf, but Mark knows how to make that work and keep the regulars along with tourists happy all night long. Self-proclaimed famous for the "best steaks in town" serving from Nob Hill since 1944. James Beard himself hailed their onion rings, so try we must try! A classic five-course menu best suited for sharing: THICK, sweet, still-crunchy onion rings are coated in crystalline breading and served with special sauce. CHECKS OUT - no need to look elsewhere. MIXED GARDEN Greens are what we want more of fresh from the West Coast, and tonight's serving is dressed (from the waist-down) in a light vinaigrette balanced by a mild whipped ricotta and crisped prosciutto. Here's what I remember from the Fried OCTOPUS - gorgeous, bright, Thai-like flavors in a tomato base with touches of charred cinnamon and crisped potato? It was sweet/savory, a little chewy (overcooked), and crunchy, all at the SAME TIME ! The Prime Steak (8 - filet) really is ALL THAT and a sizzling plate of garlic mashers (skins ON). I'm not counting their crusty oven-fresh sourdough (pillowy center. whipped butter) as a course because it closed a gap in technique on the octopus for me. We did have coffee (AND tea, for that matter), along with perhaps 1/4lb of housemade chocolate toffee brittle - not ONE BITtersweet. Service was slow, I would have enjoyed more idle chatter. Atmosphere is upscale, elegant, fit for private dining whether in twos or multiples.

Made a Monday reservation for the prime rib special consisting of a salad, prime rib with Yorkshire pudding and cream brûlée. Started off with their famous Walla Walla onion rings which never disappoint. Pro tip: order the small portion and it will be plenty for one or two people. Cost had gone up over the years to $57 but it's still a bargain. Kelly and Brady were the bartenders that took my order as I chose to sit at the bar. Others who sat near me were ordering different cuts of steak from Wagyu to a tenderloin which looked great. The pork belly appetizer was ordered by the gentleman next to me and he was kind enough to give me a taste for one of my rings as this was his first time here. Like things, the pork belly was on "fire" and recommend this as an appetizer.

Came here for Valentine's Day and really enjoyed our visit our server Hank was so attentive and friendly and also really interesting to hear the story about ringside. The aesthetic of the place is awesome. Very old style love the music choice. It's kind of like a post snore themed ambience and low barrels, bricks and wine cases everywhere. I had to dry aged, New York rare and it was very good. It's a little more rare than they usually cook, but they probably do it better than me. They had a really good umami type flavor and aroma on the surface. The famous onion rings are no joke, and I couldn't stop eating them, which probably made me full faster before the rest of the food got there. Had like a light tempura like batter really crispy and the onion had the perfect bite to it. It didn't string out or was too slimy or too hard. We also got the lobster mashed potatoes, and there were some hearty pieces of lobster claws on top of the mashed potatoes. It was very good. My wife did get her own steak. She got a ribeye, but both those steaks with everything we ordered is way too much food. We'll probably share a steak next time. Excited to come try it again someday.

Was brought here for a date last night 2/20/26 The ambiance when you walk through the door is amazing and very romantic. It's gone through a complete remodel and looks great inside. Keli, our server was very friendly and her service was impressive. We ordered for an appetiser the onion rings which were very good. My date ordered the Filet Mignon with Lobster on side for me. I also had the Caesar Salad without the anchovies. I was served A Willamette Valley Riesling one of my favs and it didn't disappoint. Dinner tasted so good and nothing was left. I'd definitely recommend this place especially for a special occasion

10/10!!! Amazing. Wow. My bf and I just had a last minute Sunday dinner here and we left feeling super satisfied! We came in with no ressy and they were busy so we luckily got a seat in the bar area and it was totally fine! Shout out to our server Taylor! She is amazing, attentive and so sweet. We loved the ambiance in here and the food- omg!!! We shared a 10 oz filet (med rare) with a baked potato and the carrots on the side. Everything was amazing, cooked to perfection! Thanks for the best dinner:)

Sauteed Pole Beans

We had a reservation here in late August upon the recommendation of my sister. My girlfriend and I somehow got a 7pm dinner time on a Friday here and arrived here ready to eat and be impressed! Once you walk in, you're entering a dark area that gives intimate steakhouse vibes. We were led to the back area with more privacy and some unique decor. Our table had a portrait of Muhammed Ali looking over on Sonny Liston with his boxer shorts hanging in the frame next to it. Pretty nice touch if you ask me! We didn't do any fancy cocktails, just some red wine and a few gin martinis. They have wines by the glass or you can go fancy and get a bottle. We decided on a couple glasses of the Walter Scott Pinot Noir, not bad although at $22/glass is overpriced; but the girlfriend wanted it so that's what we did. The martinis were a much better option, I ordered a second one since the first was wonderful! As for food, we started with the onion rings due to the hype surrounding it as the best in America. They are extremely good with the thick batter and the onions being at the perfect texture. You can dip it in their special sauce or ketchup, it comes with both! As for entrees, it's always steak! For her, the 8oz filet mignon; while I went with the 20oz bone-in ribeye. We both got baked potatoes to pair it with and a side of the sauteed pole beans (green beans) since we needed a vegetable for our meat and potatoes. Our steaks were delicious and cooked to our preferred medium rare. We didn't get any dessert as we were both stuffed afterwards but we saw the lime cheesecake go out to the party of 4 sitting next to us. We pondered it but decided to call it a night and close out. This is one of Portland's recommended fancy eats if you want to pony up more $$$. For the experience we had, we were pleased and would be open to coming back here again.

Came here B's bday dinner and did not disappoint. We got the famous onion rings, and while B does not like onion rings, he literally ate the whole plate. The dipping sauce is something else - super yummy. Awesome drinks and the food was great too. Service was wonderful and delicious dessert to end the night. Cool restaurant inside/ separate bar area for after work drinks. You can bring your own wine (probably a cork fee). Dim lights and overall nice place for a date night. Free valet (tips appreciated) as it's a tight parking lot.

Ribeye and garlic mashed potatoes
Jennifer L.

I did not do my homework. They have a parking lot but it's valet only. I don't think there's an additional charge for it, that's just how they handle parking. The outside is very plain and you would have no idea it's a restaurant. The waiting area is pretty small and they were VERY busy so make sure you have a reservation. Inside is pretty dark so pictures don't come out good. The hostess and server were so nice and they were fast. I had the onion rings and the ribeye with garlic mashed potatoes and a side of mushrooms. The onion rings were just ok. The small size was actually pretty big. The rings themselves were just a bit too thick for my liking. The mushrooms were also pretty good. The star of the show was the ribeye. It couldn't have been cooked more perfectly. I don't know what they cook it with but it was absolutely delicious. It was juicy and flavored just the right way. It didn't need any butter or anything and I think that might have taken away from the flavor of the steak. This place is pricy but I think it's totally worth it.

The onion rings, just get these
Chee K.

Ringside might be the best restaurant I've been to in Portland. The food is superb, the steak quality is excellent. I asked mine for medium rare and it was perfectly cooked. My son asked for medium and they didn't blink an eye. The onion rings were crispy and hot, they flew off the table into our mouths. The old fashion was smooth. The service was superb! We never waited long on anything and everyone was friendly. This is a special occasion restaurant for us but it's well worth it. Can't wait for my next visit!! Love this place and hope it doesn't change.

Ringside is one of the best in Portland. Fantastic food, great service, and elegant ambiance. I could eat there every week.

They survived the kitchen fire and recently reopened. We went Sunday night and pleased to report that they are back delivering the same great food in the same lovely space with the same great service. I did something that I never do in a meat forward restaurant- I ordered the entree-sized crab Louie - it was wonderful - an amazing sized plate- so when added to a very cold gin martini and onion-rings and a few samples of my partner's steak I took home enough for the next day's lunch. I never eat fish at a steak place but I did on Sunday and it was delicious. Happy to say that they not only survived the fire the returned as if nothing happened- love it!

Onion Rings
Quang L.

The space has an old school feel and well designed. We ordered the 20 oz. dry aged bone-in ribeye with chimichurri, crab cakes, onion rings, Brussels sprouts, and mushrooms. Almost every bite of steak was a bit too salty so maybe the chefs had an off night? I ordered it medium rare and some parts of the steak was rare, so inconsistently cooked too. The onion rings definitely lived up to the hype--it had an airy batter and the onion was almost al dente, soft but had a firm structure. Crab cakes were loaded with crab and creamy--pretty solid item. Mushrooms and brussels sprouts were fine, nothing special. Service was attentive and earned their money that night, checking in on us constantly and gave great descriptions and suggestions. They even gave us a complimentary dessert for our anniversary. The only part that bugged me was they didn't warn us before splitting our steak since I prefer to keep my steak whole. Then the bill came and we saw an $8 charge, which is standard at some places, but would've been nice if they warned us beforehand so we could opt out of it. We actually prefer to keep it whole and cut as needed.

Excellent wine

Ask the Community - RingSide Steakhouse

I am craving their onion rings, can I take my small kids? Is there a kids menu?

Not a place for kids unless perfectly behaved

Do you have gift certificates available? If so, can I purchase one on line?

Yes

Is there outside seating?

We do currently offer covered outdoor seating behind the restaurant.

Are masks required when the waiter comes to your table? Do waiters really wear gloves?…

They ask that diners wear masks while staff is at your table and if you leave the table. Paper menus are available upon request. Yes, the staff do wear gloves.

Are reservations a must?

They make getting a table much easier. It's not required, but the wait will likely be very long if you go during a busy time of the week and you don't make them.

What time is happy hour?

I'm vegetarian but going here for a friends birthday dinner. Are there any good options?

Sorry, I don't know the answer to this, but I feel confident assuring you that if you call them, they will do everything they can to give you what you want.

Is this restaurant baby friendly?

It really isn't. It's an old steakhouse feel where people dress up to go out for a nice dinner. A lot of dates or special event type dinners happening and a baby likely would not be met with welcome arms.

Is there a dress code?

As with most high end Steak houses, there is not a dress code per say, but being a fine dining establishment you want to look nicer than not. The servers have suits/tux's for…

The Entree: Buttermilk Fried Chicken Sandwich. Crispy fried chicken breast, lettuce, tomato, pickle, red onion, and chimichurri aioli on toasted brioche bun, with house-cut fries. It was a disappointment! The fries were too brown, and the chicken almost burnt. (see photos). I tried to only eat the white part of the chicken, but I was starving! I did put the burned part aside, and nibble some fries. I tasted hubby's lunch, and I noticed his fries were fried lighter. (He said, he'll eat my half and I'll have his half). Hubby ordered: French Onion Soup. Veal stock with brandy, carmelized onions, toasted croutons, and Gruyere. Entree: Prime Rib French Dip sandwich, on grilled baguette, au jus, with house-cut fries. The seminar presenter, when he asked about my lunch, asked if I would like another sandwich, I said NO, because I don't want to wait another 15-20 mins. and we're ready to leave now!
