Keller Café — Restaurant in Portland

Lines were very long to get in the Keller Auditorium and then another long line to be seated for your "reservation" and finally another long and slow line to get your food which is served buffet style. By the team you get to your table, all your food is cold (cold corn chowder and cold salmon is not very palatable). Limited wait staff was slow to get our drink order (we finally had to flag them down) so by the time it arrived, we were 2/3 through with our meal. The carving table servings of the tenderloin were incredibly small and consisted largely of fat, when I requested more, I was given another "micro-serving." The value of this meal alone did not equate to the $25 per person charge - at the most maybe $15. Drinks were overpriced and they were out of the Robert Mondavi Cabernet I had ordered so they substituted with the less flavorful 14 Hands. If you want an over-priced mediocre dinner... this...

Terribly disappointing. We attended for Book of Mormon, and while I am assured by friends in the know that this was an outlier, this was horribly disappointing and a ripoff.

If the theme was “church potluck” they didn’t have to immitate the poor quality of the food at a church potluck. They sure went for it. The chef had left by the time dinner was served (what the heck are they paying the chef for?) so I wasn’t able confirm allergens. They thought that everything was OK except the pork. As such, I got sick and spent the next two days in the bathroom. The food quality was bad overall. The spicy rice dish seemed all right, but the pork was dry as a bone, per my wife. The salad “dressing” was a cream dressing with the consistency of cream cheese, and the “desert” was a jello cup with canned fruit and dole whipped topping on it.

All for $42 prix fixe.

Won’t make that...

Wow!! We were lucky to book a table for 2, at 6:15 before the 7:30 show. The buffet was well tended, well stocked, fresh, seasoned, and had a lovely variety of veg, protiens, and carbs including fresh ripe fruit and mini creme brule cheesecakes for dessert, for $40 pp. Cocktails were delicious but definately have a 'theater' premium. Host and server were friendly and quick too. We sipped and relaxed until 5 mins before curtain, which felt like a royal experience. 10/10...
