Came here during our visit to Portland, which was recommended by a friend and so happy we made it! The food was amazing! We had the onion rings, French onion soup, and the ribeye everything was 10/10. Our bartender Mark was great, funny, and made del

The service was great we had Micheal he did an amazing ! 8 women to please he pulled it off and love the valet parking.

When we rolled up and saw valet parking we knew this was going to be extra. (We didn't use it because we found street parking right in front, but still a cool feature to add to the luxurious vibe). We had a reservation, and we were a few minute
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 i
The food and drinks are always excellent.
Great service. Expensive and a tad bit too crowded, not very comfortable seating for larger groups.

Ambiance is nice, steak was delicious, i had the best creme brulee in portland here. It was nice strong vanilla, creamy but not sickenly oily, real vanilla beans, nicely torched surgar layer on top. Really really loved. Only way it could be improved?
For the price, I'm rating it a three.
Ignore the price, it's a four. Great atmosphere. Completely conducive to a great night out. Staff is on point. Polite and thorough. Our water glasses never went below half. Drinks were ok at best. The cosmo was perfect. The Sapphire
Incredible food, and awesome service!
This was our very first time at Ringside. ALL the food is incredible, and our steaks were perfectly prepared! The service was flawless, and our excellent server was Jessica. You have to try the onion rings, followed by the Creme Brulee' for d
We had an excellent meal here for our Anniversary.
They included a complimentary creme brulee as they found out we were celebrating. Our steaks were done perfectly and the onion rings were as good as ever. Prices are a bit hard to swallow.
Excellent spot, love the onion rings.
Been many times and this place never disappoints.
Yes! Food, service, ambiance.
..all of it! I haven't been there since they reopened, but I'm confident it's all good!
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 - i
They had a "soft" opening tonight 8/1.
This is probably the best (New York) steak I have ever had! Medium rare, but red throw out yet somehow warm. The rolls were good and the baked potato came with butter, bacon , and scallions , and I forget what else. Luckily it did not really need bl
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 t

This is my favorite steakhouse I have ever been to! First of all the homemade onion rings are out of this world. When I went they had a bone in filet mignon and it was the best and most tasty steak I have ever had! The service was great, they were su
Great Experience With Food & Service
Great cozy restaurant! Loved the atmosphere for the lower sound level so that we could visit and hear our talks with friends. Good wine selection. Steak was good, but not cooked to my request, but didn’t want to take the time to send it back. I ha
DREAMY Onion Rings and More!
We celebrated a couple of birthdays at Ringside and crazy to say, I've lived in or near Portland for 30 years and had never been! I know... Shameful! I made reservations via Ooen Table and we arrived a few minutes early. After a brief wait, we
This was THE BEST!
This was a grand dining experience. Two of the party of four were celebrating birthdays and only one person in our party had attended this restaurant before. It was a delightful evening with everything perfect from start to finish. The appetizers
This is my favorite place for steak.
They actually serve a USDA prime and dry aged steak, and they know how to cook them perfectly. Their onion rings are a must, I understand the seafood is good, but I'm allergic so I can't say from personal experience. The salad dressing is wonderful a

Major wedding anniversary (60) and knew we wanted to go the Ringside. I have been going here since the mid 1950's and have alway loved it. We know we will get great food and service so that was our only choice. All in all it was nice, but not great

I am a huge fan of the Ringside and have been going since I was a kid so close to 50 years:). They do things right here. The service is amazing and even though I am a Z lister they treat me, and make me feel like an A lister. This visit I was here f
This is a perfectly good old school steakhouse experience.
The service is good, the food is good - with a couple of standouts. I had the prime rib and my friend had the baseball cut top sirloin. The steak was the winner- thick, tender & delicious. The garlic mash with it was good too. The onion rings war

Bartenders take things that people say too seriously and kick them out because they think they're going to get in trouble for something that's not actually true. They are nosy and listen to other people's conversations to protect themselves but in th
Haven't been since our first trip to Portland 15 yrs ago.
Happy to see they've kept their high standards in place. We shared the oysters on a half shell. Side of mignonette sauce, fresh grated horseradish & mini Tabasco sauce bottle. Yes, it's always a risk to do raw oysters. However, the safest place
Everytime I come here it is always a wonderful experience.
The food is beyond worth the price but the hospitality does not compare to any other steakhouse in Portland. Todd was our waiter tonight and I can't say enough good things about him. Onion rings and onion soup are a must!

Place never disappoints! Classic steak house with great wine selection. Onion rings and prime rib are truly first rate!
We recently came to Portland for my sister's bachelorette.
She loves steakhouses and so when I found out that RingSide Steakhouse is the oldest steakhouse in Portland, I knew we had to come here. Online the reservations portal only allows for reservations for party of seven or less. Eight or more, you have
Going back again & again.
Great atmosphere & service. French onion soup, lobster mashed potatoes & crème brûlée absolutely delicious! Nice valet parking.
Ringside…Nice Wine List & Service!
Ringside has a fabulous wine list, including half bottles. They also have excellent staff and a wonderful wine sommelier. I sat in the lounge area and enjoyed a beet salad. While I looked forward to the prime rib, it was super dry. The staff grac

The service and the FOOD were outstanding! The best part of it, was not having to fight for a parking spot. The valet is top tier! Had me feeling like VIP! The ceviche was FIRE! I will be back with my family next time!

This Steakhouse was established over 80 years ago, and is now with the third generation of the same family. So unusual in these times. Just goes to prove that if you have a success, you keep going. It's just a bit special. Ambience, service, and fo
Everything we put into our mouths tasted amazing.
We made reservations a couple weeks in advance. They called ahead to confirm and I had to ask about parking - they have their own valet private lot. The dark wood features and fireplace and decor made for a cozy atmosphere. We were seated in a boot
Excellent service from Jason.
The food was perfectly prepared and presented. Definitely recommend.

This is one of the best steak houses I've ever been to.
There're staff was excellent and on top of everything couldn't have asked for a better experience. Had a bone in ribeye and fried chicken. Both were excellent. And the atmosphere is everything you want in a steak house. Definitely will be my go to pl
Great onion rings but they need to offer dipping sauces
Great onion rings but they need to offer dipping sauces like ranch or blue cheese. I don't care for their house sauce!
First timer here.
There's valet or you can park on the street. Atmosphere is pretty nice, very dim lights inside. While you wait on your table you can sit at the bar and start pre gaming, I guess lol. The food was delicious, I got the lobster mashed potatoes and it wa
Service and Food was wonderful.
However, there was a table with loud children which was a put off and rather annoying experience. Paying quite a bit for a dinner it somewhat ruined it for us - I'd think people should either go elsewhere or get a babysitter.
What a wonderful experience for a birthday dinner.
The food and service is the best!! Tyler, our server, made our dinner a fun event. Our party of four all had different steaks and all were prepared perfectly. We also had their famous onion rings as well as salads and soups. I can't wait to go back
Prime rib special terrible
Had prime rib special. Though in the past we've had some great steak dinners there, but this special was pretty much inedible, super salty, low quality. I had an email response from the "Assistant General Manager" who said he would get ba
Classic steakhouse at historic restaurant
My recent visit to Ringside Steakhouse was a pure delight. The historic ambiance, exceptional service from our waitress in black tie, and outstanding seafood appetizers set the stage for a memorable evening. The steaks were perfection, desserts sinfu
Great steakhouse
It’s a very unassuming building but inside it’s a great traditional steakhouse. Great steaks, good service and the onion rings may be the best I’ve ever had.
Culinary Excellence!
An incredible dining experience! Terrific ambiance, super-professional wait staff ( Scott is a gem), beautifully staged, and perfectly cooked filets. Every aspect of the dining experience is polished and shiney!

this was last summer, I just went again and they changed the way they make it it's burnt and surrounded with beans. I was disappointed.

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to RingSide Steakhouse Portland at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the RingSide Steakhouse Portland page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at RingSide Steakhouse Portland to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at RingSide Steakhouse Portland!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
