It was a super hot day literally. I can't believe it was so warm. This spot has a really cool interior space. But if you head for the bathroom you can head out the back and there's a maybe outdoor space. They have some inventive fusion dishes. The watermelon is a nice touch. And the rolls were good. Overall a decent meal in a really fun spot read more

I feel that this place is a classic place for me as its been around for some time now. The inside is spacious and you never feel crowded here (unless it's like a Fri/Sat night). We did a group happy gory here after work and our server was attentive and made sure we were not thirsty or hungry. They do have s small happy hour menu option and also discounted drinksduring happy hour. read more

Another awesome bar in Portland, this place is huge, and does indoor/outdoor seating. I loved the ambiance indoors, very dark and moody! We ended up sitting outside, since there was more space for our large group. There was a really warm fire place with tables to sit at, and both areas had bars! Everyone really enjoyed the drinks they got here. I also ordered food and it was all very delicious. The Spring Wonton Nachos were incredible and the Pear&Gorgonzola Salad also hit the spot! It was pretty busy after 9pm on Friday night compared to when we arrived at 8pm. Tracking down a server to get our food order in was a bit difficult but it all worked out. I would definitely come back here again and recommend this places to others! read more

Extremely mid food. This is a hot spot for drink and their night ambiance because the lighting is gorgeous, music can be a bit on the louder side depending on the night so sometimes it can be difficult to hear the folks you came with. But the food is something that was very disappointing to say the least. There was nothing spectacular about the service either, the food was quick to come out along with our drinks. read more

Recommendation from a local and we were very happy with the experience. Stopped in at lunchtime while apartment hunting. Love the inside vibe. The tomato soup/grilled cheese sandwich was delicious. My husband got a beer on tap and I enjoyed a cider. Lots of choices. Service was quick for lunchtime. The guy taking our order and serve was very friendly and helpful. I would definitely go again and recommend. read more

Great place to stop on Burnside for a fun happy hour. It's good for groups. Has a cute patio too! We had the shrimp ceviche and it was fresh, decent portion. The chips were fresh - a little thick for my liking. Drinks: - Origami Plane - Rontoms sour (comes with the good cherry) I enjoyed this place. It was our, servers were busy We closed out and were asked for tip before the food or drinks came so there's that. Otherwise no complaints. read more

An incredible space that mirrors a Palm Springs vibe with a 007 Bond movie. An awesome patio with the best woodwork this side of... well, it's cool. I really like this place - especially the kid and attentive servers, the bartenders - not so much; and, oh my goodness it could very easily jump to a 5 star place with just a few tweaks. Here is my bottom line, come for the patio and the Happy Hour drinks and the kind servers in the patio area. Not for the food. And definitely not for the smoking friendly patio as the evening progresses to the cool kids scene. read more

Rontoms has always been a great place to go out for drinks. They cater a great menu for bites alongside their bar service. It is very spacious and cozy in a sense. They have indoor and outdoor seating which caters to both types of people. Aside from my car getting broken into, the experience was good. The vibe is definitely more laid back outside and it's just a great place for a hangout with friends. It's dark and lowkey - one of my favorites! read more

We normally find directly to the bartenders to be the fastest and friendliest. But our latest visit we had exceptional table service. That had us ordering all night long. Vibe ~ just cool. Not the newest furnishings, not the cleanest bathrooms but it does relax like a livingroom. Feels comfortable when it is buzzing with folks and relaxing when you're the only one chilling. Live music, tasty menu, strong drinks...and the occasional pingpong is fun. read more

i came here on a tuesday and it was pretty empty. i love how spacious and wide this place is. they played calm house music which i enjoyed. my friends and i shared the grilled cheese and wonton nachos. the way they grilled the sandwich was so satisfying and perfectly done. the nachos went super well with the pulled pork on top but they could've used more toppings in my opinion. i would come back for the atmosphere, but i probably won't order food here again since it's on the pricier end read more

Ive came to Rontoms about 5 times , and honestly, it's one of the spots I stand by since moving to Portland a few months ago. It's perfect for a date night or just hanging with friends. The vibe is everything low lights, lounge-style seating, and that cozy but luxe feel that just hits right. If you want to turn it up a bit, the outdoor patio is definitely a plus it's more lively and social without losing the chill energy. Even on busy nights, the service is always solid in my opinion, and the drinks don't break the bank. I paid $18 for two shots of Espolòn tequila, which is wild in a good way. The grilled cheese and tomato soup combo? A must. Total staple. Haven't explored much else on the menu yet, but I've heard great things across the board. Definitely one of those go-to Portland gems that never miss. read more

I love the ambiance and the vibe of this place. It's intimate on the inside and good for groups on the outside. They pull off both very well. The outside patio area is massive. One side has heaters and the other side has tabletop firepits. The table service was fast and our servers were really nice. We only had drinks but they were strong and not super expensive. I will definitely be coming back. read more

This spot has a moody, industrial-chic atmosphere that's perfect for a laid-back night out or a classy pregame. The exposed concrete walls, dim lighting, and sleek decor give it a stylish edge without feeling pretentious. The seating is cozy enough for groups, and there's a cool urban vibe that makes it feel both intimate and social. I ordered an espresso martini and it was spot-on -- smooth, well-balanced, and just the right kick to start the evening. The bartenders clearly know their craft. Service was OK and the crowd leaned trendy but approachable. Pro tip: Grab a seat along the wall for the best people-watching and photo ops. read more

My favorite bar ever! The atmosphere is extremely dark, and moody, with great decor. The outdoor patio is also fun. They have an outdoor bar area, seating, and bonfire. You can also go further out where there is more seating, surrounded with bamboo trees, GORGEOUS! Every time I am in town, this is my go to bar. I've always had great service with the bartenders. I've had some appetizers that were quite flavorful. The only downside is that the line to the bathrooms is awfully long. read more

Best indoor outdoor bar in Oregon!! Totally a vibe and open late 2:30 on wknds but staff from bouncers outside to main indoor bar to outside patio!!! Staff and energy makes this a must try!!! read more

Huge bar with many seatings inside and out. Their drinks were tasty but they didn't seem to have a lot of food options. Definitely would go back for the vibes! read more

Consistently awesome place. I've been here many many many times over the years and it is worth noting that it's always been solid, even when short staffed. I've had tomato soup and grilled cheese, the fondue, skewers, burger, everything is always great. They also have the best patio and gathering spaces for larger groups. read more

It was a great place for a party celebrating the wedding of someone very close to me. Great drinks great atmosphere the patio was amazing so many great people. Thank you for the wonderful evening. read more

It was a nice classy place to have a drink mid-week with some friends. It's set up as a classy restaurant where a hostess will guide you to your seat but it functions like a pub in the UK... walk across and bring your own drinks back. But don't spill! That's the dichotomy of the concept. It certainly served a purpose nonetheless. Decent food. read more

A great lounge space for a night out with friends. There's plenty of seating at Rontoms, good music, and a nice patio/outdoor area in the back (when it's warmer). The drinks and service here are good. read more

Came here on a Wednesday from 5:30pm-7:15pm and I was unfortunately disappointed. There was a private event going on, but the service was incredibly slow. We ordered the fondue, Caesar salad, and hummus, and the food was amazing; however, since we had leftover fondue cheese, we asked for more bread. About 20 minutes go by, and still no bread... It took about another 15 minutes before the waiter ever made eye contact with us before we had asked for the check. Since we had opened the tab, we didn't really look at the receipt but looking at the receipt this morning, Rontoms charged us for the bread we never got! So frustrating! The plus side is the outdoor patio is so tranquil with bamboo and lots of greenery and lights. We saw some dogs too which is great that they allow animals. read more

I went during the afternoon/daytime and had a great time. I just went for casual drinks and some food. The drinks were amazing and so was the food. Our waitress was very nice. The outside seating area is very pretty and a great place to hangout. read more

This place is okay for a drink I guess but I wouldn't get the food. Very hipstery vibe with hipster attitudes.

Darian had the best large gherkin possible. Honestly almost too much of one. Best bartender and very considerate. Couldn't ask for a better experience read more

Awesome patio with great ambiance but I did t realize you could smoke in bars and this one is apparently one of them. So I don't think this will be a regular summer patio spot for me as I'm not a fan of cigarette smoke. Friendly team, fun food and cocktails. read more

Great food, drinks and service... with a back patio! Really digging the vibe! Very inconspicuous, no signage, total hidden gem!

My colleagues and I were exploring Portland and trying to find nightlife. I think we may need to stay longer to explore other parts of the city. Anyways, the aesthetic was chill and relaxing. The drinks were good. I had their Fuzzy Slipper drink, which had rum, eggnog, nutmeg, and cinnamon. If you wanna dance and get turnt, then this is not the space for you. However, I went on a Friday night, so it may look different on other days. read more

I chose Romtoms on a chilly Wednesday night because they appeared to have a heated patio for me and my pup. The inside was pretty lively with a dark and cool ambiance. There was no host seating people so I just walked my dog through the restaurant to the back patio myself. The back patio is huge and all but 2 tables were free. I sat down at one with a flame and waited almost 10 minutes for anyone to come out. I was ready to leave when a server brought some menus and turned up the fire. He was a super cool dude. I wound up getting the grilled cheese / tomato soup combo, as well as a side salad for some greenery. I really enjoyed all the food; the grilled cheese was grilled nicely and had some good flavor; the soup was warm and though too cheesy had a nice taste as well; and though the salad was simple the ingredients were all fresh and the dressing was awesome. I got a glass of pinot noir to wash it down, and the waiter was smart to bring some water (for me and my dog). I did drive around the block 3 times but eventually found some street parking. The neighborhood feels a tad shady but not unsafe really. Aside from some confusion on getting a table and service initially, the rest of the experience was fairly pleasant, although my legs were quite cold with only some warm flames hitting my face, and the rap music was a bit too loud and jarring. read more

Great place for groups-but I always have an issue with their billing. They want one card for the table, once you've paid you will also have a "pending charge" of the pre-tip amount that lingers for several days, pretty annoying when a group can quickly spend over $200. read more

Such a vibe and a nice crowd for Wednesday night. The music was great and the drinks oh so good. I stuck with the Bruja all night which was Tequila and pineapple and whatever else. Dagne our bartender/server was also so amazing and attentive. 10/10 read more

Ah yes, if there ever was a list of quintessential PDX watering holes, RonToms would have to be on it. Been here as long as my addle-minded memory allows me to remember. And hasn't changed one bit. No sign other than a small plaque on the door, and on entrance, the cacophony of sounds envelope you. Good drinks, friendly environment. No worries in this place. Just go on in and grab a glass of... read more

Good cocktails, went her mostly for the ping pong. But would come back again for the great drinks.

I really loved this place! I was visiting portland and a friend took us here, they had live music this night and it got pretty full but we were able to find a beautiful table in the back within the trees and string lighting it was such a peaceful vibe and the music was really good! They had delicious craft cocktails, at slightly below average prices and it's always nice to not pay tax in Oregon haha. I got the grilled cheese and tomato soup - name a better duo, I'll wait - and it was so yummy. Something about it being cut into triangles and having the perfect crisp on the edge with creamy cheese that stretches for inches when u bite into it -- amazing. And the soul was creamy and well-seasoned, just a perfect pair. Ended with the fig cheesecake and it was realllyyyy good and also didn't take that long to arrive to the table. On a nice night this is definitely a place to be, their outdoor area is what really sold it for me. Can't wait to come back! read more

A really cool venue with a giant patio out back. At night there is a candle lit atmosphere. Staff and service was great and cocktails while a little expensive were tasty. My only issue was the bathroom was pretty gross on a busy Thursday night which was unexpected since the rest of the place gives off a nicer feel otherwise would have been a 5 star experience. read more

What a cool space! We came with about eight other friends on a Saturday night around 6 PM and had a wonderful table outside. The service could have been better but they got busier as the night went on and that was understandable. Although, several members of our party did have to go up to the bar after never receiving their drinks. While we enjoyed the outdoor patio, I can't imagine going back when the patio is not feasible. The inside, while very cool looking, was as dark as the Batcave and just had a different kind of vibe than the outdoors. read more
