Ringside has always been a solid steakhouse. But, feels like it does not quite keep up the pace with competitors in high end, dining experience. Prices for steaks are 10 to 20% higher than even some New York City steakhouses.

Ringside Steakhouse is a Portland Gem! Last year, we celebrated my husband's birthday at Ringside Steakhouse, and it was an unforgettable experience. He loved it so much that he declared we could go back every year for his birthday! The atmosphere is classic and elegant, perfect for a special occasion. We ordered the ribeye steaks, which were cooked to perfection – tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The sides were equally impressive. The Brussels sprouts were crispy and flavorful, the corn was sweet and fresh, and the mushrooms in butter sauce were absolutely divine. We also enjoyed a refreshing Three-dots and a wink non-alcoholic drink, which was delicious. We returned for Valentine's Day and while we were a bit disappointed that they changed the Brussels sprouts recipe (the new version had brie and apples), the overall experience was still wonderful. I had the filet mignon, which was cooked perfectly rare, and my husband had the ribeye again, cooked medium-rare. We like our steaks cooked just right, and Ringside always delivers. The service was impeccable both times. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable, making sure we had everything we needed. It's clear that Ringside Steakhouse pays attention to every detail, ensuring a truly exceptional dining experience. If you're looking for a top-notch steakhouse in Portland, Ringside is a must-try. We can't wait to go back!

First off, great on timing! We had a reservation and they got us in straight away! Keli was our server and she AMAZING! We were there for my birthday, Mid way through our meal my stomach started to hurt so Keli was so nice to make sure I felt better. She grabbed me a different drinks, offered to box up everything and got me a complimentary dessert. I told her to box it up as well but she put a candle on top of the container because she said I had to make a wish before I left which I found that to be the sweetest thing ever! I appreciated all the services! Will definitely be back and hopefully with Keli 🙏🏻

Best steak I've ever had. Onion rings are fabulous and the Caesar was quite good too. Excellent, attentive service.
Damian
Professional and very friendly staff. Great food. Onion rings with the sauce were great. French Onion soup was a 10/10. Filet mignon was top class.
Sharon
Always the best in food and service. Noise level was a little high - had to talk loud to be heard across a 4-top and had to concentrate when listening.
Stephen Weathers
Probably the best steakhouse I have ever been to. Grab some onion rings and a cocktail named the Anne Margaret while you wait on your steak. You won't be dissapointed.

RingSide is very expensive, but the quality of the meat is truly excellent, the service fantastically attentive, a cozy classy atmosphere, plus valet parking. That is what we go for. The steaks were cooked absolutely perfectly, though the filet was a bit blackened on one side for medium. Seating - some areas can be noisy (voices echo) but where we were seated this time was just right. The Bearnaise was a bit salty. Dessert - the chocolate cake with root beer ice cream was exceptionally yummy and lovely and unique - nice wines and cocktails. We like the bar area, too, and of course - the rings. We will be back.

One of our favorite places. Whenever we are in town we always make a point to have dinner!

Ringside is the place to go for any and all occasions. Have never been disappointed in 50+ years. Service and food is a cut above others.
They are back baby! Everything and everyone was on their game. Service excellent. Food perfectly cooked. Ambiance exactly the same, which is how we like it.

What a wonderful experience. The valet parking was such a convenient way to start the evening. The staff that greeted us was extremely professional and very welcoming. Our server took care of us better than I could've ever asked for. the food was so amazing and it really made my birthday night truly special. So happy that you guys are back up and running, and I will definitely be coming back for more special occasions.

Jody was our server & provided an exceptional experience for us! She had great wine recommendations & provided a relaxed pace for our meal. Everything was exquisite! The chardonnay was chilled perfectly. The onion rings were crispy & the accompanying dressing was delicious. We enjoyed the best wedge salad ever & the fried chicken along with the garlic mashed potatoes and pepper honey was outstanding. Finally, the rib eye steaks were grilled to order & did not disappoint. Ringside is undoubtedly the best restaurant in Portland to have an extraordinary meal.
Deana
We have been dying to eat at Ringside and finally were able to do so. Everything was amazing! The service was top notch, from the valet, to the front of house staff, to the server and everyone else who checked on us and made certain we were taken care of. The onion rings were the best we've ever had, the steak was delicious, lobster melted in our mouths and the mushrooms stole the show—so good. We highly recommend for anyone who loves steak and impeccable service. We can't wait to go again!
