The Urban Farmer Steakhouse is located on the eighth floor of The Nines Hotel
Stacey G.

I have to admit--Urban Farmer offered a delicious breakfast spread. I usually have lower expectations for hotel restaurants, especially when I have Marriott credits to use. But this was really tasty and filling. We shared the parfait, pancakes, and The Nines breakfast.

Modern restaurant and well lit with only light coming in from top of hotel. Uniquely designed and decorated hotel with plenty of space / seating. Restaurant is located inside of The Nines Hotel. Service was great and bartenders were very helpful in getting us our drinks and explaining the restaurants hours of operation for dining. You can come before 5pm and get served at the bar but you cannot sit in the main dining area or order food until 5pm. This restaurant fell short of my groups expectations as the actual space did not match the vibe or aesthetic shown online. Something just felt off, but food and drinks were good and the bartenders service was great!

Blackened Chicken Sandwich with salad (harvest)
John H.

This restaurant is hidden on the 9th floor of a hotel...in the center of large space...with a roof skylight high above 4 floors of hotel windows & balconies looking down on you. You will definitely have plenty to talk about looking around. It is aiming to be gourmet food, but the execution does not quite match. The service is also not quite top tier. I had the blackened chicken sandwich with a side harvest salad. It was decent, but I've had better tasting and better looking plates at dive bars. The deviled eggs were okay, but the shrimp are not recommended. Focaccia was my favorite app. If steak is their thing, maybe try that.

This was our last stop before heading to the airport and I could not be happier with our choice of visiting Urban Farmer. We stopped by on a Tuesday afternoon for drinks, and I only wish we had more time for Happy Hour oysters. My heart broke knowing we were so close, but we had to be responsible and catch a flight. Service is friendly and fast. I like that the bartender left us to our own, so we can soak in the atmosphere. It's beautiful inside with a lot of natural light and open space. It can get a little warm with the sun shining, but it was very enjoyable nonetheless. I would come back again for more drinks and HH!

Beet salad
Bradley J.

We had a very good experience here for lunch. The service was good and we sat on these incredible couch chairs. The food came out fast and fresh. Not the best fries we've ever had, but the beet salad was exceptionally good.

This is the place for Saturday brunch. Super easy to reserve on open table and not very busy. Located in the nines hotel, super cute chic area and really awesome lounge area to hang out. The restaurant is enclosed on the side and it's not loud with natural skylight and rooms that overlook the area. Really yummy food and the service was great.

Excellent breakfast and an easy standout during my stay. The crispy sourdough was perfect, the eggs were cooked beautifully, and the jam was fantastic. The real star of the meal was the chicken sausage, honestly one of the most delicious things I've eaten in a long time, and I could've finished an entire plate without thinking twice. The yogurt parfait was also very good, though quite sweet with the purée, fruit, and honey all together. Next time I'd ask for the honey on the side just to control the sweetness a bit. Great service and friendly people. Good ambiance. Appropriate volume (not too noisy). Overall, a fantastic breakfast spot and well worth it.

Wake Me Up Before You Go Go cocktail.
Raphael V.

Stopped in for a light meal and a cocktail the other day. Sat at the bar and ordered some food and cocktails. Both bartenders were friendly even though they were very busy. Cocktails and food came out in a timely manner. Comfortable seats at the bar and not too noisy even though there were several tables near us. I tried the "Mechanical Animal" and the "Wake Me Up Before you Go Go" cocktails. Both enjoyable, though the first may not be for everyone, as the bartender warned me. Caesar Salad with Shrimp. Everyone else had burgers and enjoyed them.

Flower power
Leann G.

The restaurant is inside a hotel and it had a nice atmosphere. The cocktails are superb. Service was great. Timing was very off. I had the chilled shrimp as an appetizer, delicious. But it took forever for my entree and by the time it was ready, I was ready to go home. So I hit it boxed up, they comped my drinks, which was fantastic. Got home, my steak was perfect. Overall, great place, will try again!

Phenomenal food! Delicious cornbread complimentary starter. Great service, all the staff were great and Diamond was on point and super friendly! They took great care of our daughter. A bit $$$ and worth it for a great meal! Great vibe.

Anthony C.

Been here before a few years ago for some drinks. Really like the atmosphere, music and relaxed vibe of the place and service. The food is also very delicious. Went here today for the Easter brunch they are providing. Tried a little bit of everything, but the steak was so tender and flavorful. Everything was good though. Went great with coffee. The desserts were also hard to choose, but went with the little mousse and cheesecake shot glasses. The tropical mousse was refreshing indeed too.

Butterscotch Sundae
Athena N.

I can't recommend this place enough! I had the pleasure of dining here for both breakfast and dinner, and meeting so many of the wonderful staff. Special shoutout to Raymond, Jake, Tanner, Tom, and countless others who made our visits so memorable. For breakfast, I tried the avocado toast with bacon and the açaí bowl. The avocado toast was a perfect balance of flavors and textures, and very filling. The açaí bowl was excellent as well; it was already sweet enough on its own, so next time I'd skip the honey. For dinner, I ordered the pork chop on Raymond's glowing recommendation, and it did not disappoint. The portion was generous, and the stone fruit with pickled mustard seeds elevated the flavor beautifully. We also enjoyed the tender greens salad as a starter, and for sides, the mac & cheese and Yukon gold potato purée were both outstanding. Dessert is where Urban Farmer truly shines. I can't recommend the butterscotch sundae enough; I had it twice during my stay and it was absolute perfection, with just the right mix of textures and a generous portion. The brûlée is also excellent with its perfectly torched surface. And of course, I have to mention the cornbread with whipped butter at dinner; it's hands-down the best I've ever had! Many thanks to the Urban Farmer team for such a wonderful dining experience. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

Grilled Flat Iron Steak and Eggs
Bianca H.

Overall, this is a Portland gem. Tucked off of Pioneer square, the unexpected multi-story skylit restaurant is farm to table with great service and ambiance. The salmon and steak was amazing and the pastry basket was such a treat!

Definitely make a reservation since it fills up on a Friday night. Sitting at the kitchen bar is a fun way to watch the talented team work their magic, but bar seats would've been great, too. 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.

This was some of the best food I've had in a while! I was a little iffy about coming here for lunch…read moresince I had been here once for dinner and it wasn't my favorite experience, but I'm so glad I gave it another try. 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.

The restaurant itself is so cute, I love the woodwork throughout, it makes it look very classy and traditional, but not old timey and outdated. TBH all the workers there looked miserable and the service was not great, if I asked for anything extra the waitress literally rolled her eyes every time. The relish I could live without, we weren't told that the sauce that came along with it was sour cream so we thought it was ranch and were very confused when it didn't taste like ranch haha. I personally could do without the sour cream. Our bread had weird pink stains on it that I assumed was from the beets that came with the coleslaw, but was not confirmed. The steak was phenomenal, it was so delicious and cooked to perfection, I prefer a medium rare. The crust from the sear was heavenly and the fries were to die for. I liked the onion ring as a special treat. We also ordered fountain soda but weren't told that we'd get refills with it so I sipped on it gingerly, it wasn't until we were literally leaving, bill paid, that our waitress asked if we wanted refills, like I said the service was not great. Would I go again? Maybe, at least, not for a long time.

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!
