Best Lunch Restaurants in Downtown

The food and service were first rate. They have the best fried chicken. We love it and that’s what we always have.

Portland City Grill is always a fun experience. From the 30th floor of Portland's "Big Pink" the views can be spectacular, and usually are. Over my twenty years as a resident of the Portland area I have been to Portland City many times. Actually my first date, after moving to Portland, was in the bar at Portland City Grill. I have enjoyed the restaurant with many family and friends, and they are always at the ambiance, service, food, and of course the view. I took a friend there for Thanksgiving Dinner in 2024, the restaurant had a special Thanksgiving Dinner meal, with all the fixings included. We had a wonderful view of Mount Hood. The staff provided excellent service, even with the restaurant being very busy, we still felt well cared for, and the meal was terrific.

This is for the Thanksgiving dinner. Food was exceptional, plenty of options and enough for everyone. Service was fantastic and smooth and courteous esp. on a day where it is possibly one of the most complex and challenging for staff and kitchen. We are grateful to all the women and men who worked on behalf of the people who came to Urban Farmer. It was an extraordinary experience.

This was our second time celebrating Thanksgiving in the restaurant. We were very pleased with the excellent, friendly service provided by Anni and the entire staff. The food was delicious with very generous portions. In all, a wonderful experience.

Made a lunch reservation for 2 people @12:15pm. The restaurant was basically empty (only a few tables with guests seated) when I arrived. We were seated immediately at a window table with a fabulous view. A friendly server arrived promptly & answered all our questions about the menu items. My friend and I shared Caesar salad, king salmon, goat milk cheesecake and cappuccinos, all of which were delicious, well prepared and beautifully presented. We enjoyed this tasty lunch and impeccable service… we’ll be back!
