The Rooftop Restaurant In Portland With The Best View In The City

Enjoying great views outdoors has its merits. However, come winter, seeing epic skyline views can be chilly from atop Mt Tabor, Council Crest, or Overlook Park. That is where Departure comes in to provide you with one of the best views in the city and fill you up with some truly amazing food that you can't get anywhere else.

Located on the 15th Floor of the Nines Hotel, the view from the dining room is jaw dropping.

With magnificent windows lining the dining room, you will get an amazing view from just about anywhere you sit.

Its expansive patio will have you longing for warmer days.

Be sure to come back in spring or summer when you can enjoy a meal or drinks from this exquisite viewpoint.

The food is spectacular, combining the bounty of the Pacific Northwest and Asian cuisine for an amazing selection of mouthwatering dishes.

Led by executive chef Gregory Gourdet, of Top Chef fame, Departure is one of the top restaurants in the city.

With amazing views and absolutely scrumptious food, Departure is a destination in itself.

The restaurant also has some great views of Pioneer Square from the West Deck, making it a prime location to watch activities going on below.

Once you experience this amazing sky-high restaurant, you will want to come back again and again - both for the food and the views!

Departure is located at 525 SW Morrison Street. Check out the Departure website for more information.
