Many regulars were dismayed at the news of a lengthy remodel and temporary move of this West Burnside Street institution, especially to a central downtown location. They shouldn't have worried. The refurbished RingSide has reopened and is… Read Full Editorial

My Review by bcoop via Citysearch on 10/17/2012

Happy hour- \r Cozy old time, original bar. Food was lack luster. Potato skins must have sat under heat lamp for an hour before our order. Calamari- bland. Steak bites- eh. \r Exceptional service. \r Too many other places to try for happy…

My Review by jims421986755 via Citysearch on 7/1/2012

The service was very poor. It took over 40 minutes just to get our salads and the salmon I ordered wasn't cooked through. I noted the table across from us, which ordered plenty of drinks and appetizers had much better service than our…

I have been long time patron of this by CraigW637 via Citysearch on 6/4/2012

I have been long time patron of this establishment but I regrettably agree with the other recent posts. The food and service was o.k.. but for the price I have high expectations and this restaurant no longer meets what I think you should…

After the Re-Model, its has gone down by LarryJ494 via Citysearch on 4/8/2012

After the Re-Model, its has gone down hill a bit, been there twice since re mold, and prices have gone through the roof(70 bucks for a Prime steak) and service was not up to par as it used to be on both visits, Waiter had kind of a >care…

Longtime Ringside patron. Was looking by larrys138 via Citysearch on 2/12/2012

Longtime Ringside patron. Was looking forward to the re-opening of the Burnside restaurant. Made reservtions a couple weeks in advance, asking for a seat in the "old" portion. I'd heard from others that the "banquet room", was…

Major Disappointment by CoffeeGuy via Citysearch on 5/4/2011

I live in the neighborhood. I buy local. Sorry to say you should avoid the newly re-opened Ringside. I was eager to try the place the first week it re-opened. Unfortunately, their standard 14 oz. rib-eye was ordinary. So, we tried…

But it's a cool place by Jaime s via Insider Pages on 4/28/2011

The food here was off the chain! My group laughed at me because I ate so much and the waitress asked me did I want someone else. am like what? But it's a cool place.

Just ok by norcal1 via Citysearch on 3/7/2011

First visit to the Ringside restaurant. Meh. Not sure if we caught the restaurant on an off night but it wasn?t great. Our table wasn?t available on time, not a big deal as it was a busy Saturday night. However, we were disappointed to…

Impressive... at first by supsonic3 via Citysearch on 2/10/2011

Six people sat down for a business dinner with cocktails, wine, appetizers and steaks. The server did really well getting us to a $900 tab. Aside from my $30 pasta being overcooked, everything was pretty good until the end, when the…

I LITERALLY EAT THERE 3-4 TIMES A WEEK by mbtpdx via Citysearch on 1/14/2011

The happy hour menu is so phenominal, that I go there about 3-4 times a week to indulge. The staff is ultra professional and friendly. \r \r Must haves on the HH menu are the steak bites, burger, crab cake, potato skins. They also make…

First Time Disappointed by scoop3 via Citysearch on 12/2/2010

Well I have to call them today. Been nothing but satisfied with them for 55 years and OOPS!! last night wasn't good for me. Garlic mashed potatoes with lumps the size of Don's thumb and wadded up potatoes skins in the mashed potatoes. Then…

Wanted it to be great by nordic587 via Citysearch on 11/29/2010

My wife and I have dined in the past at Ringside on many occasions. Last Wednesday Nov. 24, 2010, marked my eldest son's birthday at the Fox Tower location. My wife and I hosted my son and daughter-in-law. I am both fair and objective when…

Thank you Ringside for a perfect dinner by bttrzmon via Citysearch on 11/2/2010

Going out for a night on the town started at Ringside, the menu , appetizers, drinks and of course specialty cut steaks were perfect. The new restaurant is much nicer than the old set up in NW. I liked the valet service in the front so an…

Great Service & Onion Rings by groovyguru via Citysearch on 7/23/2010

Wanted to impress my daughter with a great steak dinner. Ringside!\r \r The restaurant is elegant with most guests being older, or apparanty there on a business expense account. Service was consistently polite, professional, and helpful.…

love the new location by PDXGreek via Citysearch on 6/5/2010

We got a chance to go to the opening of the Fox tower location of the Ringside and we were really impressed. I have been going to the Burnside Ringside my whole life and know that it would be difficult to move such a Portland icon to a new…

What a difference a few windows makes! by ccaulfield1 via Citysearch on 5/25/2010

Ringside just opened in Fox Tower during their remodel at Burnside and the menu/food/service is just like it has been for the last 60+ years - perfect. I have been going to Ringside for decades now and loved the Burnside location, but it…

Absolutely Perfect! by southernboy via Citysearch on 3/7/2010

Enjoyed another fantastic night at Ringside...we were immediately greeted with smiles by the young woman at the hostess stand. We were a few minutes early for our reservation so we made our way to the lounge. Naturally it was crowded…

Favorable Impression by Stuffed via Citysearch on 3/3/2010

My wife and I recently went to Ringside on Burnside to celebrate our anniversary. The food was very good and the service was excellent. Even the Valets were prompt and courteous. I thought the Halibut was excellent. Avoid the fries…

Great Food, love this place by jimsork00 via Citysearch on 1/1/2010

I have cravings for the onion rings with spicy ketchup at ringside. Then I start to think about the crab cocktail and the delicious filet mignon. I have tried other cuts of meat, however; the filet is the best. The bartenders make some…
