We're testing a new design in Portland, OR Metro.
It doesn't have all the bells and whistles yet,
but we want to know what you think.

The Ambassaodr, Scorned.
The Ambassador, a bar of the future from the point of view of the 1980s. Normally, one of our go to bars due to the convenient location
and not bad food, although the lack of Guinness on tap is a constant sore point as is the truck stop rivaling condition of the restrooms. After last night, however, our group shall never return. Our waitress (Elizabeth? Tall skinny woman with glasses.) was exceedingly rude the entire evening. She started it off by calling our friend "Baldy." I assume she was trying to be funny, but it was a bit early in the evening and for all she knew he had just recovered from chemotherapy. After that, she told us after two Jaegerbombs that we were at risk of being cut off and "you know those are $9 apiece, right?" The absolute kick in the teeth, however, was at the end of the night when our friend was served up with an insane bar tab. They claimed that he and his wife had consumed 11 Gin and Tonics and 8 beers, for a grand total of $140. Now, unless you're a pretty spectacular alcoholic or the bar is impressively watering down the drinks, there's no way you're going to drink 11 G&T's and still be coherent. We tried to point out that there must be some mistake and that his name, being exceedingly common, had perhaps been confused with another patron. The response? "Well, he looks pretty drunk to me." Thank you, Breathalizer Beth, we had no idea that a person of your talents was serving us beverages all evening.
The pork fried rice we ordered was pretty awesome. Karaoke there is fun, except for the fact that swearing on stage will get you an instant end to your evening. But, if you have a thick skin, can watch your tongue, and possess skills as an accountant to keep track of your own bill, by all means visit The Ambassador. You will not find us there again, however. Last night was the noodle that broke the Strega Nona's back. I award you one star, but only because the review tool does not provide for negative starrage.

E-GADS!!! What a NIGHTMARE!!!. This is the worst place I have ever been to in my entire life, and that includes a tour of the auschwitz concentration camp! If you want to hang out at the end of a dying universe...spend as much time possible in this joint. The food costs WAY TOO MUCH MONEY. They have stupid rules and as I understand it their boss is hideously greedy. NEVER go into this place!! They are liars and thieves!!! View Less … View More
Rockin good times!. Staff was great! Good food and alot of it for the money. They have two karaoke places inside so the wait is not too bad. I love the DJ's and love to hear them sing. Mostly I love listening to good singers as I am not a singer myself. Really great atmosphere and probably the best karaoke bar I have been to. View Less … View More
Good service but really bad food.
For a chinese restaurant, the place is nice and clean.
We went there on Friday around 6-7pm, there was not a single soul in the dining area, except the bar. That tells you something isn't right.
Anyhow, we ordered our food. The food is god awful. How could a Chinese restuarant messed up with stirred fried. It is like Mexicans make really bad taco!
We barely finished our food and left hungry.
Pros: The service was really good. I guess it is because we are the only customer there.
The only reason that this place is still open is because of the bar. The food is really bad!
