What User doesn't like about Portside Restaurant:
This is a restaurant that "wants to be posh". The prices say Posh, the food and service say Slosh. Overpriced and, well, it's just an ok place. The free breakfast that the hotel offers is kinda chinsy, No Juice, No Milk, No Hot Chocolate, just tea or coffee. Closed on Fridays and Saturdays and ahhh, the hotel is not bed, but the restaurant, nah. View all feedback. What User likes about Portside Restaurant:

We really enjoyed breakfast here. Nice view and a very nice server. She forgot my wife's deCaff and didn't charge us for any coffee. Good spot to relax.

This restaurant has old world charm and a quiet ambience. Hard to find that. Soup and Salad lunch is great value. Food is generally very good.

I have tried the prime rib all you can eat special as well as breakfast from the menu. Both times, the meals were delicious.

I ordered stir fry vegetables with shrimp, teriyaki sauce on the side. The shrimp were good sized, veggies more onion than rest, and they forgot to put teriyaki...
