RingSide Steakhouse

2165 W Burnside St, Portland, OR

Family-owned since 1944, with a 1,000-label wine list and onion rings James Beard himself praised. Where McCollum's wine education began: early in his career he was a post-game regular at the bar, and a 2014 glass of Walter Scott Pinot here set him on the road to his own label. Reopened in August 2025 after a kitchen fire.
