Escape Grill - Portland

I absolutely adore this place! The food is fantastic, the bartenders are excellent, and the drinks are top-notch. The atmosphere is always friendly, with both the staff and patrons making you feel welcome. I highly recommend trying one of their signature cocktails, particularly the "Good in the Hood." The happy hour and late-night menu are incredible bargains. Believe it or not, this place even made me enjoy sweet potato fries! And at just $4 for two tacos, it's a steal. They also host karaoke and drag shows, which are always a blast. If you’re in the area, I definitely suggest checking it out!

My friend and I were planning to stop by the Escape Bar and Grill to grab a drink and escape the heat. However, as soon as we walked in, the waitress or bartender, who was not even working at the time, immediately asked if we were vaccinated. She was rude, and I found the whole experience quite baffling. I hope this message reaches a wide audience because I believe you would be very disappointed if you decided to visit. This kind of treatment is discriminatory and unacceptable on every level. Shame on her.

This is my favorite spot! The staff is fantastic, the food and drinks are delicious, and the atmosphere is wonderful. They have a spacious outdoor seating area that’s covered and equipped with heaters for when it's chilly. Escape is LGBTQIA+ friendly and hosts a variety of fun events, gatherings, and shows.

Finally went there tonight and I am only sorry I didn't go sooner. Folks there were so fun and welcoming! The staff is so friendly and kind, the atmosphere is wonderful, and the drinks were STRONG! Also had a great time playing in the Uno tournament!I also felt safer knowing they ask for proof of vaccination.

I visited this restaurant for a gift exchange party, and overall, it was a pleasant experience. The service was excellent, with staff being very friendly and welcoming. The food was quite tasty for bar fare, and there were some healthy options available as well. I have several dietary restrictions, and they were very accommodating to my needs. I had a lovely time and would definitely return. The only downside was the parking situation.
