I have to update my review. Still 5 stars. Tonight we ordered lamb chops and cheeseburgers. My wife raved about the lamb chops, perfectly cooked. I had a cheeseburger which was also really good. I think Volcano Grill is a hidden gem. People need to give them a try.

I was a bit hesitant when I drove up since this was connected to the Ramada, but I looked at previous reviews and decided to give it a go. Our waitress was very friendly. The food was great and surprisingly upscale. The burger bun was stamped which was a nice touch, the ribeye was delicious and cooked as requested. The sauces were made in house. The veggies were fresh. Overall it was pretty tasty. Would definitely go again.

What a hidden gem. I recently dined at volcano while staying at the hotel on the same property for a business trip. I must say the food was absolutely delicious. I had the lamp chops which were cooked to perfection and the chicken wings for an appetizer. I highly recommend trying volcano for a memorable dinning experience! The staff was super friendly also.

Dropped in for a late night dinner and were pleased by the warm greetings and delicious food. We started with the artichoke and spinach dip. Delicious! Kathryn had salmon with orange sauce on a bed of sautéed spinach and rice with peas and corn. I had the pulled pork sandwich. Both were great. I know because I skipped the french fries and helped Kathryn finish her salmon and rice. We finished with the warm chocolate chip cookies and ice cream desert. Yum! We plan to return on our next trip to Portland. Volcano is indeed a "hidden gem."

We came for a family dinner (2 teenagers, a 7 year old, and myself). I was a little weary because when I've been here in years past, it was a rocking pub on a Friday night. That wasn't the case this time around, it was family friendly. We even chose to sit on the bar side of things, as the restaurant seemed quiet and not the best placement for my younger child. Our waitress was funny and helpful. We started with the volcano cheese appetizer. They bring it right to your table and light it up in front of you. My little guy got a kick out of that. I was expecting it to me served more like a dip but it's basically just a hunk of cheese. Imagine eat a block of a mozzarella stick that hasn't been breaded. It was tasty but I probably would order something that gives more bang for it's buck, as we each ended up with about two bites of cheese once we divided it up amongst the four of us. The pulled pork grilled cheese and buffalo chicken sandwich were quite yummy. The pizza tasted just like a "house of pizza". I mentioned that to the waitress and she confirmed that the owner had previous had a house of pizza! I love this greek style of pie. I would say that the buffalo sauce didn't really come through on it though, as they still used a red sauce base and put the buffalo chicken upon in. Still good, but not exactly what I expected. With easy parking, a friendly atmosphere and reasonable prices, we left quite satisfied and would definitely return again. If you came here prior to the name chance, give it another go. I think they've upped their game (:

Absolutely delicious food and amazing service. We got caught in a snow storm and overnighted at the Ramada and this restaurant went above and beyond to make sure all our needs were met. Tacos were superb and the Tiramisu was fluffy and creamy and wonderful. Will definitely be back.

Staff were really nice. I ordered steak frites. A bit too salty for my taste but I tend to prefer less salt than most. The steak was to be served with a chimichurri sauce. Which is not what they served it with. Chimichurri is a vinegar based herb sauce and the sauce served was a creamy base. The chimichurri would have balanced out the saltiness quite well. Those with me ordered burgers which reviews raved about and our table enjoyed them.Good music. Plenty of space which is hard to find these days most restaurants stack customers on top of each other.Parking: Plenty of parking which says a lot for a Portland restaurant!
