Worst Experience Ever!

Perhaps the worst dining experience I have ever had in Portland....I have never seen such inefficiency and poor customer service. Half the dining room was EMPTY and yet they did not seat anyone that was...

offensive

I used to love this restaurant. Growing up in Portland, I have fond memories of going to a show, then heading to the montage for a mud pie and a coffee. I was horrified when I recently heard what had happened...

Horrible Customer Service

I used to love the Montage. The food has always been good, and at one time, the service was good too. The last two times I've been there (both of which I was entertaining friends in from out of town and trying...

Yelp.com Review - by Jess J.

4.0 of 5 stars. Anytime is a good time for mac n cheese. The staff is quirky and fun, especially the wackos in the kitchen who yelled out "Booored! We're so bored!" when business slowed down a bit. Even if there are…

Yelp.com Review - by Laura N.

3.0 of 5 stars. I think I set Montage up to fail when I voluntarily arrived sober. However, you have to respect a place for not giving a damn about...well...anything. And shoot, this place has 50 reviews! It…

Not for the Faint of Heart But Recommended

I honestly don't understand why people complain about how loud the Montage is. If you want a quiet place to have a conversation go somewhere else. The best way to enjoy this place is to join in the fun to be...

Best Mac & Cheese in town!

Montage has great food and lighting. They have very avante garde art on their walls, some which could be construed as sacreligious. Their "Old Mac" is a delicious concoction of garlic, parmesan cheese and...

Fun atmosphere.

A great place to invite friends from out of town or wanting a late meal. The dim lights, candlelight, and funky/fast service is what the restaurant is known for gives out a fun vibe. I do like the table...

Something new:)

We went out yesterday, and after searching for a new place to eat came upon this place. What a great atmosphere, interior, menu and a little something at the end. They have a good menu and a wine list. Great...

Yelp.com Review - by Trinh T.

3.0 of 5 stars. The literal translation for La Merde is...."the shit". We had a good chuckle over this as we pondered the reason for such a name. Is this "the shit" like "the bomb"? Or did the owner mean to just give…

2.0 of 5 stars. Hands down, the biggest waster of aluminum foil in Portland. Frog legs and alligator bits lurk in their freezer --- beware vegans!

Yelp.com Review - by Angela B.

4.0 of 5 stars. I am so hooked on the jambalaya at this place, and pretty much every mac and cheese dish they have ever had on the menu. The portions are huge, and if you have leftovers to take home they will wrap…

5.0 of 5 stars. Had my first oyster shooter here after a friend told me she tried everything twice just in case conditions weren't right the first time round. Not that I'm crazy about oyster shooters, but I'd do it…

Awful first impression- Bad attitude

I went here to meet some friends in the early a.m. (a large party of over 10). I sat down with my friends and an angry hostess came up. She said you have to wait to be seated here. I said we where meeting...

It really is a 50/50 chance at a good or horrible evening!!!

So the first time I came to this place I was totally in love with it's funky intimate young atmosphere. It was a great place to get away and eat late, and take friends to. Unfortunately the last few times I...

Come early, stay late!

The Montage is one of my all-time favorite places in Portland. What was once decorated with precociously stacked Rainer bottles has now been replaced for a dining hall with white linen candle lit table tops....

Pretty good dish, flawed, but ambience brought it back

I had the famous linguini with alligator and a Suffering B*st*rd. My girl had the Gator Salad with Cajun caeser. The linguini was spiced wonderfully, not over the top though, the gator was a little charred on...

4.0 of 5 stars. It seems the Montage either inspires love or hate. Take it as what it is--a Cajun-ish restaurant hidden under the Morrison bridge that stays open into the wee hours, builds its reputation on sassy…
