Rialto Poolroom Bar & Cafe
View Less
A downtown spot to shoot free pool (Mon.), partake in happy hour imbibing, or catch a game on one of the many projection screens and TVs.
The Rialto's enormous projection screens are great for Blazers games, while some stiff competition shoots out on their numerous pool tables.
LOST THEIR CHEF. Use to go there for their lunch specials, but now just ho-hum. It seems like the food is just secondary to the drinking and gambling. I found out the drop is due to the loss of their long time chef. maybe they can spring back…
Best drinks downtown. Way better staff than the last time I was there about a year ago. I actually had a really good waitress and great drink. Hint: ask for a 'tall ' drink. Glad I gave it another shot.
great food, but I miss the old rialto. The food here is actually really good. Nice job chef! I have eaten here a couple of times since the remodel and it is good. No question. Bartender was good. She poured a mean shot. I still miss the old rialto. Miss the characters, the old bartenders and cocktail waitresses and the old layout. The new layout just doesn't do it for me. It is still a good spot to go and smoke a cigar and watch a game, even if your waitress is barely twenty one and doesn't even begin to have a clue. Oh well, I guess nothing ever stays the same!…
