Best Restaurants that are Worth The Drive in Clackamas

A truly exceptional dining experience at Screen Door Eastside! Every dish was a culinary masterpiece, showcasing fresh, high-quality ingredients with innovative flavor combinations. The service was impeccable, with our waiter providing knowledgeable recommendations and attentive care throughout the evening. The ambiance was elegant yet comfortable, creating the perfect setting for a special occasion. I can't wait to return and explore more of the menu. I do not recommend the downtown location because the Eastside location is simply the best. Literally. Amazing!

Casually, comfortably elegant atmosphere with classy service and great food. Appreciated both regular and non-alcoholic beverage selection. Perfect spot next to the Reser Center for the Arts.

If I could give this place 8 stars, I would. STOP SLEEPING ON STREET DISCO AND GO NOW! No, stop questioning it, just do it and stop thinking about it. Trust me, it’ll be the sweetest, most delightful surprise of your year. We’ve been here 8 times in the last year and it has yet to disappoint. The cocktails are phenomenal and seasonally charming. The tinned fish is a sleeper hit and is always scrumptious. The food is the perfect combo of high brow/low brow that is exceptionally seasoned, portioned perfectly and tastes like angels made it. Oh, and the staff is kind, chatty in the best way and absolutely has trustworthy opinions - we have never been steered wrong. I’ll write a review for this place over and over again, and it will ALWAYS be 5 stars. Our favorite restaurant in Portland, and truly a ridiculously special neighborhood secret that deserves all the love!

After hearing glowing reviews from coworkers, I had to check it out for myself – and I’m so glad I did! I highly recommend making a reservation. We visited on a Friday night and were lucky to have one, as the place was packed! We started with the bread service, which was warm and delicious, and the crab cakes. Just a heads-up—if you're dining with more than two people, definitely order extra crab cakes! They were so tasty, but we each only got one. For our entrees, we chose the prime rib special and the scallops. The scallops were perfectly seasoned and cooked, and the broccoli had a crisp, flavorful touch without being overpowering. The prime rib was massive, cooked to perfection, and practically melted in your mouth—it was so tender you could almost cut it with a butter knife. To top it all off, the key lime pie was hands down the best I’ve ever had. Given the quality of the food, the pricing is very reasonable, and the staff were friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. The aesthetic is elegant but has personable touches to the brand. A truly fantastic dining experience!

Nothing short of outstanding! The dumplings stood out in what was an epic display of culinary skill throughout the meal. Service was great as well! Can’t wait to come back for round two 🍻
