Best Restaurants with Private Rooms in Southwest Portland

Always have a lovely time here and it was a wonderful way to celebrate our anniversary. Great food, loved the additions from Toki and the a la carte options. Bao burger and the truffle mashed potatoes were faves.

It took a solid 15 minutes or so before we were greeted, which isn't a big deal, but the Sushi bar was also a bit backed up, so it would have been nice to be able to at least get some drinks and starters going a bit quicker. That ends the complaints - service was overall exceptional. We got some fairly "standard" rolls, but even the rainbow roll that you can get just about anywhere was exceptional. They had monkfish liver on special with a yuzu sauce that was absolutely out of this world. There was also a jalapeno toro crispy rice nigiri special that was one of the best bites I've had all year - extremely unique flavors and a really fun party of textures. When I come back, I'll definitely explore some of the more unique options available - my party was a bit averse to branching out too much - even though they ended up *loving* the monkfish liver, our most "adventurous" pick. Seaweed salad and gomae were also top-notch. I had a "Scott Toddy" - probably the best hot toddy I've had (FYI: sweeter than usual). I'll probably pass on the house sake next time and spend the few extra bucks on something nicer. There was nothing wrong with it, and for $9 it'll do the job, but there's a reason you get 9oz for $9. I can't wait to come back.

Christmas dinner was excellent. We had the wine pairing as well. Very enjoyable.

Stellar! 100% hands down best experience this year. Maybe ever. John was fabulous, food outstanding, signature cocktails on point, and wine top shelf. Oh and then there was the the dessert. really no words for how outstanding this experience was. Thank you for making our Christmas Eve so memorable.

We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at Clarklewis. Classic Northwest Fresh cuisine worthy of a birthday, anniversary or other celebration. We had beet salad, root salad, pizza and pasta and all were top notch. The holiday decor of Noble firs and white lights was simple and stunning. We will return.
