15 Portland Restaurants Where the Views Are as Good as the Food

"Despite being only four floors above the hustle and bustle of East Burnside, Noble Rot’s classy dining room and cozy patio still manage to feel like quiet, secluded oases in the heart of the city. Watching the sun sink behind the West Hills or listening to cars whizz by below, visitors sip on pours from the restaurant’s James Beard Award-nominated wine program and enjoy seasonal dishes that utilize fresh produce from the rooftop garden. The best seat in the house is undoubtedly on the outdoor deck overlooking Burnside, strung with lights and full of lush greenery. Those who prefer the indoors can snag a seat at one of the sleek banquette tables right by the window." - Zoe Baillargeon
