Imagine our surprise to find Carlyle open on Monday! Newly open, I should say - - it was their first Monday open. It was early, the bar was already jumping ($1 Martinis might have had something to do with this), and bar menu was calling. Hamburgers, French Fries and Onion Rings like nowhere else in Portland (or anywhere else, for that matter - - and on a Monday)!. Yes, the food is wonderfully upscale and cosmopolitan and the place is opulently mellow and tasty, but Carlyle hamburgers and Martinis on a rainy Monday evening are just the best!
Pros: Setting, Comfortable, Tasty
