Portage Grill & Conference Center

I ordered the jambalaya chicken and sausage 10 out of 10! It came with a side I was just going to salad, but the special today was gumbo chicken and sausage and I got that too 10 out of 10! And I asked for extra bread and they delivered! 10 out of 10 some of the friendliest waiter and waitresses I’ve met in the Dalles and the food was fantastic! My coworker got the French dip with a steak fries. He said it was a 10 out of 10 the server was passed. There’s a full bar and nails of slot machines 10 out of 10 for sure.

The hostess was very friendly and gave us the option to choose our seats, which was a great start. Our waitress was nice and made things right. The atmosphere was lovely, and the view of the river and dam was beautiful—definitely a highlight of the experience. Unfortunately, the food did not live up to the setting. We ordered our steaks medium rare, but what we received was closer to beef jerky. After sending them back twice, they still weren’t prepared correctly, which was really disappointing. Overall, the service and ambiance were great, but the food quality, especially the steaks, left a lot to be desired. Wouldn’t recommend it for steak lovers, but maybe for drinks and the view.

Food is really good! I love the mac and cheese with bacon! I went there to watch the Seahawks play off game, they have about 4 TVs which is really nice! Loved my bartender, Angela! She is amazing! Fast on making the drinks, and keeping your glass filled! Very friendly and kind. They have a lottery room 6 machines, pool tables, outdoor seating ( only when the weather is nice cause who would want to set out side during the winter 🤪). They also have a conference room for large parties..just call and make a reservation! I would recommend making a reservation if you have more than 5 in your group that way they have time to move tables and to set it up for you.

This place is so clean and relaxing the food is excellent in not too expensive.It's also located at a hotel and even makes it nicer on the columbia river , oregon

We went in at 10 mins to before 10pm. Really wanted dinner but, apparently they don't do food after 10....even though the sign, the web site, AND the door at entry all say 11pm. Super annoyed. They took almost 8 minutes to come greet us at the door (that says "please wait to be seated") and we stood inside the area so they could see us. If that's any inclanation we probably where better off by eating here.
