Slide into a plush red booth and start with the legendary onion rings (renowned chef and author James Beard called them "the best I've ever had") or crisp Caesar salad. The corn-fed beef is at its best in the juicy slow roasted prime rib and freshly shaved horseradish or the bone-in filet, not available anywhere else in town. This is, indeed, a traditional steakhouse, but the surf is just as delicious as the turf; sample a fine selection — King Crab legs, gulf prawns and Willapa Bay oysters — with the Chilled Seafood Platter.

Even though the tuxedoed servers and candle-lit tables — and admittedly decadent prices — make this the perfect special occasion or business dinner location, you can still indulge in RingSide's classic recipes with prix fixe dinners and one of Portland's best happy hours. Dine early (before 5:45pm) or late (after 9:00pm), choosing a soup or salad and one of five steak, pork and seafood entrees with a side, for only $25. The $2.25 Happy Hour Sampler Menu — including favorites like steak bites, prime rib dip, oyster shooters, Caesar salad and popcorn shrimp — elevates late-night grubbing to a refined level.
