I gave On Deck another chance a few days ago and found that the happy hour (which was served outside, not just inside) is much better than it used to be. I got a pretty good pulled pork sandwich for $3 and a small pizza for $4, which was decent enough for the price. If the place is busy you'll probably find the service to be slow, especially if you sit outside. I still don't like the way the bar inside is set up with only a few places to sit where you can actually see a TV without straining your neck, but it's not too bad. Sure gets packed during Oregon football games and NCAA tournament, so they must be doing something right.

I agree that this place is horid. I went there on the 4th of july and the wait staff was So rude. They were closing at 9pm on the 4th of july and basicaly pushed me out of my own chair. I'll never be back.

By far the most poorly managed restaurant in Portland. Horrible service, understaffed and a total "bait'n switch" on Happy Hour. Happy Hour is for customers inside only, however, there are no signs that indicate that and the waitress we had decided not to mention that to us until she gave us the check. I've gone back a few times to give them a chance to redeem themselves, but the service has been crap everytime. My recommendation is to just not go. Not worth it.

horrible service, and they always seem to be understaffed. Last time I went there (with two others) we got two rounds and the waitress messed up 4 of the 6 drinks we ordered (wrong beer 2x, vodka 7up instead of tanq and tonic, and had to be reminded twice about a beer order), not to mention the customary 15-20 minutes for a drink to arrive. Food is pretty good but it is not worth the service or the other clientele. Also, forget about going on a big sporting event day, because the service and time delay are even worse - went for seahawks game last winter and ordered at the start of the game, got our pancakes at halftime.

*Please Note* Happy Hours is for indoor customers only. Not patio customers. Learned this the hard way. Abysmal service, way under-staffed. Had to ask for drinks & our check twice, because our waitress kept 'forgetting about us.' Wow.

A little foo foo for a sports bar, but that's to be expected in the Pearl. A good place to go during the summer, but they don't always have enough servers to make good use out of the full deck so the service can be a little slow.
