    No quibbles really. We were there very early, however, so we didn't have much competition for service and it wasn't noisy, which it can be later in the evening. Food as usual was excellent.

    From the Bubbles and Bivalves starter, through the elegant sturgeon with piccata sauce, to the perfect desserts — this was a memorable meal. Smooth, expert, low key attention from our server, Ricky.

    Had lunch on Mother's Day. Food and experience was fantastic. Server was attentive and prompt. Food was enjoyed by all. We started with the large Ceasar, which didn't last long. My oldest daughter had the spicy shrimp and grits, which she loved. So much so, she requested that SP 'remain in our dining rotation.' My wife and I split the three piece fish and chips, which was tasty and enough for both of us to split. All in all, great experience.

    The restaurant was fairly busy, but it was also a Saturday evening. We ordered cocktails and oyster shooters and shrimp cocktail to start, and that arrived in a reasonable amount of time. We also ordered a smoked fish and cheese board, and that took quite a long time. I then finally received my entree (a salad), but the other person in my party didn’t have their entree arrive until around 15 minutes later (he ordered the monkfish). My the salad greens in my salad were wilted and seemed as though they’d been sitting for awhile. The fried oysters on the salad were fresh. The monkfish dish was hot and very good. Overall, it took us over an hour and a half to get our entrees. Our server apologized once for the delay, but said the kitchen was just trying to catch up on orders. We had a 6:15pm dinner reservation and ended up being late to an 8pm show across the street. Overall, by no means a horrible experience, but some areas of the meal were disappointing and could’ve been better.

    The first time we ate here, it was so nice that we went back the next night. My wife had sturgeon, and I had fish and chips; both were excellent. We also had very good cocktails, a Negroni and a Manhattan. The next night wasn't quite as good. She had swordfish, and I had salmon, and it seemed like the chef didn't trust the taste of the fish. The added spices overwhelmed both dishes. When you choose from the menu, think it over and ask questions, so you know what you're getting.

    Several stops on the Pacific Northwest coast and THIS was by far the best dinner we had. My wife had the Salmon with sticky rice and I had the sturgeon. They were cooked to perfection and sauces were amazing.

    I took my daughter to Southpark Seafood to celebrate her birthday, and everything about the evening was fantastic. From start to finish, we had an incredible experience. We ordered drinks, appetizers, entrees, and dessert, and every single dish was delicious. The seafood was fresh and perfectly prepared, and the flavors were outstanding across the board. The service was equally impressive—attentive, friendly, and made us feel welcome the entire evening. I couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate my daughter’s birthday. Amazing food, top-notch service, and a beautiful atmosphere. Southpark Seafood has definitely earned a spot as one of my Portland favorites. Highly recommend!

    I had another wonderful meal at Southpark. Our server was wonderful and made sure we were done in plenty of time to see our White Bird Dance performance.
