Oregon’s many steakhouses and saloons embrace their Wild West roots like few other states in the country. The steakhouses run the gamut from tuxedo-clad servers to hokey good times. Whether you’re looking for a place to celebrate a special occasion or simply a night out with the family, one of the following steakhouses will surely do you right.

Barney Prine’s Steakhouse and Saloon, Prineville, OR
Barney Prine’s Steakhouse and Saloon has an old west theme that is either rustic and charming or won’t fit your particular steakhouse needs. But if you’re in the mood for good food in a restaurant that doesn’t take itself too seriously, while celebrating its old west roots, then Barney’s might be the perfect fit. Open for lunch and dinner, Barney’s serves hand cut steaks. Dinners include house salad wedge or soup of the day.

Dine in a repurposed jail at the Broadway Saloon in Beaverton.
