Are there any American cuisine restaurants in Portland?

Jake's Famous Crawfish (Seafood)

$$ - Jake's Famous Crawfish Restaurant was established in Portland, Oregon in 1892, and it remains a Northwest tradition as it continues to expand (under the name of McCormick and Schmick's) to become one of America's best-known restaurants. Jake's fresh seafood menu has a list of over 30 items ranging from spearfish and prawn brochettes with habanero barbecue sauce to stuffed prawns with Jamaican spices. A selection of Oregon wines is also available.

   
Are there any ethnic or specialty restaurants in Portland?

Genoa (Italian)

$$$$ - The first thing you'll notice at the award-winning Genoa, is there is no printed menu for their seven-course meal. As dinner begins, your waiter will describe the evening's three choices of entrees. Then after the antipasto, you will be served the remaining courses: soup, pasta, fish or salad, the entree, dessert, and fruit. Reservations are required, and although there is no dress code, many gentlemen wear jackets and ties.

Are there any American cuisine restaurants in Portland?

Tony Roma's (American)

$$ - "One weekend back in the '70's, Chef David Smith and Tony Roma decided to throw some baby backs on the grill. It was only going to be a temporary thing, using Chef David's own secret barbeque recipe." The rest, as they say, is history. My favorite flame-grilled menu item? Bountiful Beef Ribs!
