When you’re surrounded by the natural beauty of the Beaver State, pretty much any restaurant you visit is going to have amazing views. Do you want to dine while admiring of the most beautiful waterfall in the PNW? You can! Care to enjoy a meal in the shadow of the legendary Haystack Rock? Just visit this restaurant on the Oregon Coast! And if you want to sip sake and eat sushi surrounded by the beautiful Portland skyline, just book a table at Departure, the most famous rooftop bar in Oregon.

The Portland skyline is iconic; the most beautiful blend of man-made marvels and natural wonders.

The experience of Departure is as much about the food as it is the views (though, we’ll get to those jaw-dropping vistas in a moment).

The restaurant’s menu is built around the sustainable, pan-Asian cuisine that has earned the restaurant national praise over the years.

The drink menu is as delightfully varied and vibrant as the food; from sake and signature cocktails to Japanese lagers and Oregon wines, there’s something for everyone to imbibe here.

Of course, Departure is best-known for its views… and the restaurant certainly lives up to the hype. Departure features a dual set of fantastic rooftop terraces; one that is an extension of the restaurant, with full menu and seated service, and one that operates as a less formal lounge and bar. Both boast sweeping panoramas of the Portland skyline.

(Of course, the indoor dining room isn’t too shabby, either…)
