Nice laidback oldfashoned environment, ok meat slab. Interesting server and service. We met Clyde. He seems very personable. The food itself was not memorable. The prime rib was priced like the best and mediocre in both quality and preparation. No windows in the place does give a slight mortuary feel also but dispite that we enjoyed looking up the history. I would go back if i was invited by someone but not if i was picking the place.
Service was excellent. Decor dark & dated. But who cares. It's the food that counts. GREAT prime rib. We enjoyed it ALL

The Prime Rib Melts in Your Mouth. I am picky about meat--especially beef! But I'll tell ya, Clyde has figured out the secret.
I stopped in because I saw they were running a Sunday night special ($15 prime rib dinner--WHAT?!?) and I couldn't believe how wonderful my dinner was! I ordered prime rib, which was carved table side and served a perfect medium rare and my server doctored up the best baked potato for me, loaded with all the fixings.
This place makes you want to drink Old Fashions and listen to Frank Sinatra. Luckily, they server a killer Old Fashion (I also had a great Manhattan) and Frank and his friends were piped through the restaurant, making me feel like I was sitting in another era.
Next time I go, I'm wearing bright red lip stick, a classic 50's style dress, a fur ripped coat and patent leather heels. I hope to be accompanied by a slick gentleman in a smart suit with a skinny black tie and a top hat.
Seriously, try it out. It's wonderful. PS--order the hot and gooey for dessert
Speakeasy Blues and great food. I have an intimate love afair with Clyde's Prime Rib,
It starts as all good love affairs do with well poured drinks from a friendly bartender who remembers your name, then as the relationships advances you are enjoying food prepaired and presented like you were important to them and they enjoyed pleasing you, the music puts you in a relaxed toe tapping happy spirit especially when Ron Stein has his open jam sessions on Sunday night, and like a good host Clyde greets you and often walks you to the door with a smile making you feel comming back next time will be a pleasure revisited like a true love affair is meant to feel.
Enjoy Clydes Prime Rib....you deserve it
Great Food Clyde. This was my first time here, I came for a babyshower. The food was great, and the people were very nice! I will be back soon!
I can't say enough positive things about this place. I grew up in Portland, Oregon, and had never visited this restaurant until now. Don't judge a book by its cover because it's unassuming from its exterior, and then you enter into a beautiful old-school steak house dining room. We had the most friendly, attentive waitress, and she was a saint to endure our large group. The food was amazing. I had a shrimp salad, prime rib dinner, a cocktail, and dessert for just under $65. You can beat that price for the quality and excellent dining experience.
Heard that Clyde’s had been purchased sometime in recent months (apparently I was misinformed), so decided to try it. It was quite better than expected. I had the Louie salad to start that was very good. I also enjoyed the cranberry mule cocktail I had. The main event prime rib was good, along with the shrimp. Baked potato was a bit disappointing because it was small and wasn’t really loaded as promised, very little toppings. One member in our party had the chicken sandwich they really liked. Our server was excellent and very attentive, but the host at the front desk was a bit surly upon entry and leaving. Over all was a good dinner and I would go again when needing that old steakhouse fix!
Thursday night. We received Great service in the lounge. The Old Fashioned drink i ordered during happy hour had small cubed ice, and shredded maraschino cherry? Very loud in the lounge.
The dry aged prime rib i ordered, even though it was medium rare, it was tough, but there was a lot of it.
I'd try it again just to compare.
I don't really go to places like this, but I am glad there was a Christmas party there or I would have missed out on some delicious food. Onions soup was on point, the tenderloin you could cut with a fork, and that cheesecake was fantastic.
I came here for my 19th birthday on a Wednesday with a party of 4 (me included), as recommended to me by a Facebook group. I love places that are historic or vintage time capsules, and especially cute ones (ex: Mary Lou's Milk Bottle). We came in here with a 6:30PM reservation and were seated momentarily.
We ordered an appetizer of calamari (which I can safely say is the best calamari I've ever had), and I ordered a prime rib french dip with fries, which was excellent and I will certainly be going back. Especially on the weekend for the live jazz.
Went for my birthday treat. Everything was excellent. Spinach app. Creamy flavorful. Calamari tender nicely done. Prime rib was very tender excellent flavor perfectly cooked med rare. I would change nothing.
A place where Ron Swanson would be proud to eat a steak. Could have easily had a dinner with Michael Corleone here. Great ambience when the smooth jazz from the lounge drifts into the dining room. Top flight prime rib paired with Eagle Rare 10 year. More quality selections from the bourbon list as well. My 22 year old son said, "I feel like a man eating here."
This is something of an institution in Portland that looks right out of the 50s. There's historical photos to back that up, too. White tablecloth service and half moon booths support a solid menu of beef and well-prepared sides at a reasonable price. It's more a place you know you can always count on rather than a place to impress, but there's something very right about that.
Just moved here and past this place several times, my daughter was coming to town and we both love Prime Rib. Walking in was immediately inviting, warm comfortable lighting and atmosphere, the fireplace is jaw dropping with wonderful chairs to sit in while waiting. The bar was a blast from the past, had that upscale Vegas ambience and was packed with cheerful patrons. Dinner could be had in bar or dining room so we walked around but my daughter chose the dining room as only two of us and we didn't want to take up a huge booth. Once again the atmosphere was very enjoyable, Tyler was very knowledgeable and a fun chat. We had the mushrooms to start, shared a bowl of clam chowder which was loaded with clams and delicious. Our prime rib came out rare as requested, garlic mashed potatoes and veggies. Food was delicious, Tyler made sure we had everything we needed and was very attentive checking back on us throughout our entire visit. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience.
The atmosphere is low lit with a lounge type vibe. The live music is ALWAYS excellent, from blues to soul to 90'S and today. The staff is usually very helpful and kind! It's a very busy place on a Friday or Saturday night, so u need a little patience, but overall, the wait time is not bad for service. Get there early for dinner to get a seat by the music. The other side is the Restaurant section and is elegant dining with a reasonable to moderate price tag. Ps my favorite is the prime rib french dip!! A great steakhouse for the heart of Portland and a guaranteed good time! There are always on lookers who stand by the dance floor, but no worries! People are polite, and if u don't wish to dance with them, they let you be! Parking is a bit limited to their parking lot, which is the only challenge, so being your good parking Karma!! No dress code but most wear casual to semi formal.
