UNION Restaurant

UNION was top on my list of date night restaurants and I’m glad I can finally check it off. The restaurant itself is connected to the press hotel and offers a big space to wine and dine. The atmosphere is very relaxing and definitely up to par for a top tier Old Port restaurant. My girlfriend and I got the mussels as an intro and they were quite possibly the biggest mussels either of us have ever eaten. We proceeded to both order the conchiglie for our body. The conchiglie is an elevated take on mac n cheese which we both thoroughly enjoyed. The service was great all around. I would highly recommend UNION for a good date night.

Interesting menu, and a wide array of choices. Everyone in our party seemed to really enjoy their dishes. The Rabbit + mussel Paella I ordered was very good. The service was attentive and friendly but not cloying, the interior of the restaurant is warm and easy to enjoy. Would come back.

We tried this restaurant before a show a Merrill Auditorium. First, it has a great atmosphere and location. Very trendy and upscale. We sat at the bar because we didn't have reservations. We ordered several cocktails which all tasted great. However, the two bar tenders were working the whole restaurant and seemed very overwhelmed. It took a long time to get their attention on several occasions. We ordered raw oysters which tasted fine but many of them had little bits of shell inside, poor shucking. I ordered the bacon cheeseburger with duck egg, which tasted great! However, we waited well over an hour for our meals and were 20 minutes late to our show, despite being assured by the waitstaff that our meals would be out in plenty of time. Overall, I was pretty disappointed considering how expensive it was... Hopefully this was just an off night... We will be back to give it another try. The prix fixe menu looks great and I want to try it when we're not under time constraints.

Amazing food, great service it's a little expensive and I would say the main meals didn't come out very hot. But taste was amazing

So looking for a restaurant opened on Christmas night was not easy but we found this Union. We even got there as the restaurant was closing, and they took us in. Extra stars for that. The hostess was nice and welcoming. We ordered potato croquettes flavorless, Trout flavorless, half Chicken flavorless and 2 Apple pie sangria decent. $130 later definitely not returning

Delicious drinks and food! The server was very knowledgeable about both the cocktail menu and entrees.

The swordfish and steak were delicious. Nicely presented with excellent taste. We complimented the chef before leaving. Very good service. Nice decor style though slghtly noisey when full.

First time in Portland and had a wonderful brunch at The Union Restaurant. We were pleasantly impressed by the wonderful atmosphere and hospitality. The decor is comfort with nods to their past, a typewriter and suitcase walls are such a delight. The restaurant is full of windows letting in the natural light. We were warmly greeted by the hostess, and Anna our waitress was a delight. She answered all our questions and gave us some wonderful suggestions. Our cappuccino and latte were wonderful and when our food arrived it was freshly made with generous portions. Highly recommend and we will definitely come again!
