【閉店】Lincoln Restaurant

Excellent food with a varied menu. Service was terrific - definitely would recommend and come back.

Tasty food prepared in a perfectly unassuming style where the simple flavors of the ingredients were the stars of the meal. I consider this a more sophisticated way of eating, where overpowering spices aren't masking the ingredients. Add a friendly and knowledgeable staff and this was the perfect birthday dinner!

Lincoln is a great restaurant - love the food, ambiance, location and service!

First Time visit and found the found very good. The serice was excellent. When we found a bootle of wine which had gone a bit overthe edge, the service was quick to agree and bought another bottle without hestation. As the evening went on, many local customer's came in and it was packed by the time we left.

We were disappointed that our party of seven was charged a 20% gratuity. The service was not remarkable, and that was a high tip on top of a very expensive dinner for moderate service. The food, while good, was generally overpriced.

Very nice early dining for our family of two teenagers and their parents before Cirque du Soleil at the Expo Center.

From the time we arrived until we left, we were treated with respect and never ignored. Jill was our waitperson and she did an outstanding job. The food we chose was a bit unusual for us, and all was excellent. Wine, too.

The food was good but we left hungry. Might try it again for happy hour.

Very good dinner, not as good as some of the other times we've been to Lincoln, but still quite good. The onion rings, fried asparagus and tripe, and duck confit were great. The risotto was okay. Dessert took too long to arrive and, since we had a theater date, we had to eat the sundae quickly and take the other with us for later.

Overall, it was a positive experience. The menu was interesting and the food was as promised.
Be aware you will incur an automatic 20% gratuity on parties of six or more. Including the wine! You really won't do any better bringing your own wine since corkage is $20...that will actually be $24 with the mandatory 20% added.

The plates we had were delicious!

Lincoln would probably get 5 stars from a lot of people. I wish I could have given 4.5. The food was very tasty. The service was excellent. My wife had the worst looking dish of our group but it was really tasty. For this price range and this type of food, it was pretty standard. Granted, the standard is high. The prices were reasonable for what we got. They have a good selection of wine and the prices for the wine were relatively good as well. I don't see a world where someone would go to this restaurant and leave unhappy. I would surely recommend it to anyone.

If you haven't been to Lincoln, then you've really missed one of PDX's gems. From the welcoming, down-to-earth atmosphere walking in the door to the physical setting to the exquisite food, everything about Lincoln is just right. The flavors of all the foods, whether it's one of their risottos, the hanger steak or one of their rabbit dishes, are melodious to the palate. Make time for Lincoln, and you won't be disappointed.

I love the ambience at Lincoln. The architectural, yet warm look, is very attractive. Service was attentive, but not overbearing. My dining partner and I shared the salad with crispy sweetbreads, but found it lackluster. It was really too small to share, and the sweetbreads weren't all that crispy. However, the dressing was great. For my entree, I ordered something I haven't eaten in years, namely rabbit. It was the the server's recommendation and it was delicious. And one more thing...the martini was perfect. We had tried the martinis on previous occasions and found them to be kind of sad (served in a large martini glass filled 1/3, overly diluted). This time it was done right.

I've been looking forward to trying this restaurant for a while considering all of the good press it receives. Overall, I'd say it was good, but it didn't blow me away.

We arrived a little early, but they were able to seat us right away, the food was delicious and the service was fantastic.

We chose this resturant for our one year anniversary celibration because neither of us had been. We were very pleased with the experience . We would definatly recomend Lincoln for a couple or even a small group. The food was delicious, especially the octopus. The half chicken was off the hook as an entre I had the Panna Cotta for desert. The ambiance was perfect. Very creative. I'm impressed.
