The Bone marrow bread was delicious and so was my tomawk steak.
Great atmosphere and service, will go back for sure!
+Update: Went back last night for my anniversary and it was an outstanding experience. They gave us some champagne when we first got there. Went a bit earlier and service was outstanding. Things came out super quick and were delicious! Bartender came over at one point and made me and off menu cocktail.
Music was Also pleasant and just a great vibe. Will be back for sure!
Particularly noteworthy is the lobster bisque. This is about as perfect as soup as I’ve ever had, with amazing flavor, and lots of large chunks of perfectly-cooked lobster.
As is the case with most high-end steakhouses, the steaks are sold a la carte. The side dishes are huge; big enough to share with a whole table. They’re also extremely affordable considering the low price and the huge portion size.
Staff is extremely friendly, helpful, enthusiastic, and attentive.
It is highly recommended to make reservations, especially on the weekends, because this place can fill up quickly. It is also among the best places I’ve ever been to see a jazz show, with excellent seating, very appropriate volume levels, and extremely talented performers.
I really cannot speak highly enough about The Underground. It has rapidly become one of my favorite places to go for a night out.
Since my original visit, I’ve been back half a dozen times. Each time, the service has been absolutely superb! The food is CONSISTENTLY perfect; perfectly seasoned and perfectly cooked. I seriously cannot express how absolutely perfect an establishment The Underground is.
The wait staff needs to be highly noted. Our waiter was outstanding and provide 5 out of 5 service the entire night.
Food was outstanding. I had the 10 oz Buffalo Ribeye and my wife had the Steak Oscar. Both were cooked perfectly. The Bread Service as Sooo GREAT.
We both had a bowl of Lobster Bisque.
It is a bit expensive, so be ready for check.
Cocktail service was also very good. We brought our own wine in from a special vineyard, and there was no issue with that.
We started with drinks and my cocktail was beautiful and delicious. We also ordered the French Onion appetizer and the baguette was baked to perfection. The French Onion however was really undersalted and they don’t provide salt or pepper at the table.
The peppercorn steak sauce was good & the steak was perfectly cooked but still, underwhelming. The asparagus had just the right about of crispness and my husband loved the Truffle Mac & Cheese. (I’m not a fan of mac & cheese no matter who makes it)
The highlight of my meal was the Creme Brulee. I’ve enjoy this dessert at many restaurants but this was THE BEST. It was so smooooth with a thin sheet of carmelized sugar…not burnt, carmelized sugar that added to the dessert and didn’t interfere with the texture of the creamy smoothness below it. This Brulee was an experience I want to repeat again and again.
I didn’t take a picture of the Brulee because I wasn’t really expecting much but when i picked up my spoon and tasted this treat, I didn’t want to put my spoon down long enough to take a picture!
I gave 4 stars on food because I believe if they can do this to cream, I’ve gotta try another steak and see what my taste buds say…
All in all, I look forward to visiting again.
PS Service is very good.
It isn’t secreted behind an unmarked door or hidden behind a business front, but it has an authentic feel of a Speakeasy from the 20s and 30s. The servers are dressed as flappers, and the interior of the Underground beneath De Fuego bar attached to the Monarch hotel in Clackamas is opulent yet tasteful and reminiscent of the era. There is live piano music at opening, and smooth jazz trios and featured artists later in the evening.
The service is on point. Everyone embraces the spirit of the experience being created within the Fuego Underground. The cocktails are heavily weighted toward the whiskey and bourbon drinking crowd, yet all drinks are given the prohibition era spin in presentation. The entrees are predominantly various cuts of beef with some exceptions, and they are of equal quality to any high-end steak house in Portland. The sides are varied and better than most compared to, say, El Goucho or Ringside. I had a Gâteau au Chocolat for desert that was delicious! (even though I had to take it home and eat it 2 hours later for being so full!)
Overall, it was an amazing experience! If you love a good Speakeasy, you HAVE to try Fuego Underground. If you just like great steaks and craft cocktails, this is a hidden gem with easy parking, but reservations are recommended. This place is popular and for very good reason.
We’ve been on a dry January (not going out to eat) because to often than not, the food and service sucks for the amount of money we shell out. This was well worth falling off the wagon for. Will be back, maybe next month❤️❤️❤️ get a reservation for sure
My husband knew of this place from a friend who knows we love a good bar. We decided to drop by to check it out. Reservations are key but luckily we were able to sneak in that night. So glad we did!
The doors opened to a beautiful room of velvet, rich furniture and moody lighting. A pianist was playing and you already feel transported. The staff was so welcoming and decked out in period attire – you feel like you’re in the 1920s. It reminded me of The Magic Castle in LA. Has that vibe.
The menu offers solid steakhouse fare. We ordered bread service and cocktails first. The bartender knows her stuff. My husband particularly enjoyed his Bootlegger Old Fashioned. He loved his salmon as well and I had their delicious mushroom risotto and a wedge salad. Everything was yummy.
They are located in the underbelly of The Monarch Hotel of all things. Such a fun, hidden gem of a venue. You have to go yourself to believe it. We’ll be back for sure!
