I lived in Portland for 20 years, ate at the one in Old Town several times. I worked at a place off Macadam Ave called Vidicraft in 1984, practically next door to the one on Willamette. Went there for lunch a lot. The year of the big flood, it think it was '96, we went there for my mother-in-law's birthday dinner (it was her favorite place) the night before the river crested. Looking at the ships out on the river, it looked liked they were up level with where we were sitting. Way spooky.
