What? BurgerDogBoy at a sushi restaurant? It’s true. It was Mrs. BDB’s birthday, and sushi was the her cuisine of choice for the nightly repast. In charge of the festivities, BDB planned the evening carefully, and dinner was to be at Bamboo Sushi in Portland, coincidentally (cough, cough) I am sure, of Portland Monthly’s #2… Continue reading Portland, OR – Bamboo Sushi Review

Portland, OR – East Bank Saloon & Restaurant Review
Located in a hysterical (sic) building, constructed in 1896, the location has been home to numerous businesses over the years, prior to the current owners establishing the eatery in 1978. Mrs. Burgerdogboy had scored a Groupon for 2 burgers and 2 beers for $15, so after an afternoon of her biz errands, we landed in… Continue reading Portland, OR – East Bank Saloon & Restaurant Review
Oregon – Linnton Lighthouse Inn Review
My second visit, a quiet place to discuss business or have a tryst discreetly (or have business about your tryst), and also home to one of the most massive burgers in the Portland area. The Lighthouse Burger features a ginormous patty (a full pound?) on an oversized roll, and is topped with bacon, ham, cheese,… Continue reading Oregon – Linnton Lighthouse Inn Review
Portland, OR – Three Square Grill (Review)
In our hood, Three Square Grill has been dishing up their take on American favorites, sourcing locally whenever possible, for over ten years. While we’ve always intended to go there, we had never made it, until last nite, and we’ve been missing out. Mrs. Burgerdogboy had called from her daily errands and suggested a date… Continue reading Portland, OR – Three Square Grill (Review)
Portland, OR – Meriwether’s
In 1805, explorers Meriwether Lewis and Daniel Clark were deep in the midst of the first transcontinental exploration to the West Coast of the United States; in 1905, to celebrate the centennial of that expedition, Portland hosted a “world’s fair”, the Lewis and Clark Exposition. At that time in history, “World’s Fairs” were held annually… Continue reading Portland, OR – Meriwether’s
Portland, OR – Billy Heartbeats
Billy Heartbeats, an outlet of the Restaurants Unlimited empire, is tucked away adjacent to the food court in the Lloyd Shopping mall in Portland, OR. It’s a schnock-0ff of Johnny Rockets, serving a limited, table service menu of hamburgers, hot dogs, fries, and shakes, with the addition of a few standard diner entrees. I’ve passed… Continue reading Portland, OR – Billy Heartbeats
Portland, OR – Joe’s Burgers (Downtown)
Hmmm, where to begin this one? Where to end. Shall I write a couple hundred words about Joe’s? Or simply (spoiler alert) “Meh.” I was running around downtown today when I spotted the latest location of Joe’s, which started as a “kiosk” type operation at the fancy pants Bridgeport Mall, and although people urged me… Continue reading Portland, OR – Joe’s Burgers (Downtown)
Portland, OR – Killer Burger
As a regular reader, you know one of my “acid tests” for how much I like a pizza, is how it holds up to eating the next morning. I might add a similar criteria for burgers. Tho I seldom like “leftovers”, I do admit to putting a few extra patties in a frying pan when… Continue reading Portland, OR – Killer Burger
Portland, OR – Dockside Saloon & Restaurant
Tucked away in one of the industrial sections of Portland, directly underneath where the 405 crosses the river, the Dockside serves the working stiffs that ply their trade in the various businesses in the port. Open from 5AM – 8PM M-F, and with earlier closing times on the weekend, the Dockside features a lengthy breakfast… Continue reading Portland, OR – Dockside Saloon & Restaurant
Portland, OR – Tubby’s Deli
Had a quick bite to eat here while meeting a friend from out of town who was doing some biz in this neighborhood. I’m pretty leery of places in Portland that have the word “Deli” in their name; here it can often mean “lottery games and hot dogs,” but such was not the case today.… Continue reading Portland, OR – Tubby’s Deli
