⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars – An Outstanding Dining Experience My family and I had the pleasure of celebrating my 56th birthday at The Cove on July 1, 2026, and it was one of the most memorable meals and experiences we’ve had in a long time.

Great food with a great view! I was in Portland for a work conference and this was the perfect spot to get out of the city and enjoy a delicious meal. It was cool to sit on the patio and watch the planes come and go to PDX.
