Chart House
About This Spot
Nestled amid the tranquil greenery of Portland’s West Hills, Chart House offers an experience that feels both elevated and approachable. From the moment you arrive, whether it’s just before sunset or under the soft glow of evening lights, there’s a quiet sense of occasion in the air. The space invites you to slow down, relax, and savor a meal with a view that frames the city and river beyond in a gently shifting tapestry of light and color.
The pace here is unhurried—where attentive, gracious service meets a warm, welcoming energy. The dining room hums with a mix of intimacy and quiet conversation, making it a place well suited for celebrating gatherings or simply enjoying thoughtful moments over a carefully prepared meal. The downstairs lounge offers a more casual rhythm, perfect for sipping cocktails and sharing plates while the world outside begins to settle into evening.
Chart House is a place where the menu feels like a conversation with the Pacific Northwest, American classics, and a touch of refined indulgence. Flavors are layered—fresh oysters, richly prepared prime rib, coastal clams, and inventive seafood creations that balance familiarity with surprise. Whether sharing starters that mingle bright citrus and crisp textures or ending on the sweetness of a velvety lava cake or crème brûlée tasting, each bite echoes a crafted care for ingredient and moment alike.
This is not a restaurant that rushes you—it encourages connection, be it with your company or with the quiet beauty of its surroundings. You leave with the memory of a well-paced evening, the kind that reminds you why dining out can feel like a genuine occasion, rather than just a meal.

This restaurant is a gem! I wish I'd discovered it sooner. The setting up in the West Hills is lovely with a great view of the river. We enjoyed cocktails and Happy Hour food in the downstairs lounge, and everything was excellent. Service was prompt and friendly. Definitely recommend!

Our first visit was exceptional, highlighted by gracious, attentive service and a relaxed atmosphere. We returned on a much busier evening, and while the dining room carried a noticeably different energy. The prime rib is an absolute must—beautifully prepared, richly flavorful, and unquestionably the standout on the menu. One note of disappointment was the salad served in the cheese bowl, which arrived cold and would have benefited from being freshly prepared. On the other hand, the bread was clearly fresh-baked, warm, and well executed. We would return specifically for the prime rib.

A Truly Exceptional Dining Experience at Chart House Portland From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the impeccable service, stunning views, and incredible food. The complimentary valet parking made arriving a breeze, and we were seated just before sunset — a perfect time to watch the skyline transition from golden light to twinkling city views. Absolutely breathtaking. We started with the calamari, which was crisp, flavorful, and beautifully drizzled with sauce — easily one of the best versions I’ve had. The Caesar salad and lobster bisque followed, both decadent and rich with flavor. For entrées, the steak and shrimp skewers were perfectly cooked, and the chimichurri sauce took the dish to another level. The crab-stuffed sole was a true standout — tender, flavorful, and expertly prepared. We finished the evening with a chocolate lava cake that was pure bliss — warm, rich, and indulgent, the best I’ve had in a long time. From the knowledgeable, friendly staff to the well-curated bar and happy hour options, every detail at Chart House feels intentional and elevated. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just want to enjoy an unforgettable meal with a view, Chart House Portland is the place to be.

First time here and I would love to come back! We had a party of 18 and everyone was so gracious and polite. We didn't experience any waits notneven for seating since we had reservations. Drinks were quickly and delicious. Our server Jason wasn't only knowledgeable but also funny and I appreciated his humor!! I ordered stuffed shrimp and the wife ordered one of her favorites, Prime Rib!!! Tender and flavorful.. I don't drink I order a non alcoholic mocktail and it was fantastic. Blood-Orange Sage!!

Took Mom for birthday dinner and it was amazing. The ambiance, food, and service made for a beautiful evening. Mom was so impressed. Stellar view and top tier cuisine. Also, very reasonably priced. Easily Portland's best.

The Chart House in Portland is consistently an incredible experience every single time we visit. The food is always excellent, from the seafood to the steaks, and the quality never wavers. Every dish is prepared with care, beautifully presented, and reliably delicious, which is something you truly come to appreciate over repeat visits. The service is wonderful, attentive, professional, and warm without ever feeling intrusive. On top of that, the views are absolutely phenomenal and make the entire dining experience feel special and memorable, whether it is day or night. It is the kind of place you trust for celebrations, date nights, or simply a great meal, knowing you will leave happy every time.
