While the grill room is delicious, the service is awful. I've been more than a few times, and it just seems like they can't get it together. First time, the server got ALL of our entrees incorrect, and forgot to put in the sides/apps we ordered (for some reason she wasn't writing anything down?) Drinks also took over 30 minutes. Was willing to give them a second chance because the food *is* tasty - made a res for 630 another night - didn't get our table until 845, and then food took another hour to come out. Looked on yelp, seems my experience isn't out of the ordinary. A shame.

*edit: a word

The service sucks at any of the Rooms restaurants because Harding Smith is a fucking asshole to his employees, and you shouldn't give them any business.

Honestly it's amazing they are still able to operate restaurants in Portland, they have achieved a reputation for being jerks so actual kitchen/FOH talent isn't going to work there.

Yeah I’ve read many accounts of the owner being a total dick. I haven’t been back and I don’t plan on it
