classy looking place. this place is very classy, but a little sleepy. We met here for cocktails pre-dinner, so can't comment on the food, but it looked like it would be very good, though a little pricey. The cocktails were well prepared and they have a nice wine list.…
Great meal. One of Portland's best. The type of place you will never be disappointed in the food.

Management is a bit lost. I did have a bit of a complaint; only to my husband of course about the Manager on duty. He walked around like he was the biggest grouch ever.
Our new favorite.
We have been at Carlyle before and made a long overdue visit again just last week. My wife had the scallops and commented that they were probably the best she ever had (she should know; that's all

Disappointed.
Four of us were looking forward to a lovely meal in a beautiful restaurant.

$28 for 3 large scallops in a little sauce and corn. Not another piece of food on the plate.
Portions were small and expensive.
The worst part was the other woman ordered a burger, medium. It was literally raw. Sent it back, it was raw again. Nobody ever offered to bring her anything else. Of course we weren't charged for it, but why would we be-it was raw and unedible. The fries were abundant and I'm sure frozen and nothing special. She went home and had dinner at home! Nobody really cared.…
