Remember Spirits & Restaurant — Restaurant in Portland

There are no burgers, no fries, no milkshakes etc...... it's all Chinese food. We ordered chicken fried rice. The menu didn't indicate it was spicy like it did with other dishes but when we got it home it was so spicy we couldn't eat it. We also got the beef dumplings. They were more like wontons with an unrecognizable blob of something in the center that tasted what I imagine wet dog food would taste like. The bartender was nice but a little preoccupied with anything other than customer service. She forgot to put our order in so after 20 minutes we inquired about our food and she said "oh, they didn't see your ticket so they're just now starting your food". Mind you, we were 2 of only 4 patrons in the whole place!! And the only ones who were ordering food. She never asked if I wanted anything to drink. But she made sure my man had his drinks in a hurry. Just before we got there, apparently one of the restrooms was flooded with water. Rhe owner decided to vacuum the water up with a really loud vacuum that I believe was a regular vacuum and not a wet dry vacuum but that's neither here nor there. It was extremely loud and obnoxious and made it difficult to play video poker. The machines were very hungry and barely let us play but that's not their fault. Anyways, I just thought I would share my experience with that place. I wouldn't...

Was in there last week with a good friend of mine who is disabled due to a stroke. Received excellent service from the waitress who I have to say was not only extremely helpful but made an excellent suggestion with the Chocolate Tuxedo cake!

I was in there last night for more cake and a little bit of conversation with the lady that was working while waiting for our deserts and wouldn't you know it,guess who was working? Yep! You got it! The best waitress/ bartender in Portland! Great personality and pretty damn #$*& I must say once again! I'm thinking that I'm going to be eating a lot of cake in the future that's for sure! Gonna be gaining some weight! Gonna have to find a way to keep from letting it get outta control,don't want to gain too much! Might want to be somewhere where it's 75° and be...

Finally! An amazing Chinese restaurant has arrived in East Portland. Hazelwood to be exact. Check out Remember Restaurant at 12429 NE Glisan in the Menlo Park Plaza. I had no idea this place moved in. Apparently the owners bought out the old Cleary's bar and restaurant (Clearly's is still there, don't worry!). This is LEGIT Chinese food with handmade noodles and all. Everything from scratch. Not your "American Chinese" type joint with all the deep fried sauce laden stuff that most of this neighborhood has. This reminds me of something in New York or San Francisco. Give these guys some business,...
