"A Portland institution, Jake’s Grill has sat in downtown Portland for more than 25 years, while its sibling, Jake’s Famous Crawfish, has served seafood a claw’s throw away since 1892. Jake’s menu of broiled steaks is really about the add-ons, be it an au poivre treatment with a brandy peppercorn sauce, or the addition of Dungeness crab. The move is to order either with the restaurant’s 18-ounce, dry-aged, bone-in New York strip." - Ben Coleman
"A longtime sentimental favorite from upbringing in Portland — “I was born and raised in Portland, so the Jake’s locations still have this special place in my heart. I went to dinner for my senior prom there, my siblings’ birthdays, graduations.” One of Akwai’s best friends is the sous chef there. For weekday lunch they order the Cobb salad: “we go there and get the Cobb salad, which is so classic. They put a bunch of avocado on there, it’s really generous.” He also mentions drinks there: “We have John Dalys, Arnold Palmers with vodka. That’s the day off date. Comfort and consistency.”" - Thom Hilton
"Jake’s Grill will serve a special holiday brunch from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Christmas Day. The a la carte menu features dishes like house-baked biscuits and gravy, French onion soup, buttermilk pancakes, rib-eye steak, and more. The restaurant’s dimly lit dining room with heavy wood accents and hanging Tiffany light fixtures will further set the mood." - Janey Wong

Reservations are available by calling Jake’s Grill." - Eater Staff
