Known this place for a while for its entertainment (obviously) and food. Went on a week day and the place was quiet. The food is very reasonably price (keep it that way!) and there were a handful of dancers. The gents need urgent need of repairs!

Acropolis Steakhouse is ALWAYS a go to spot for excellent food and service. They have a walk up window for orders to go, or if you have a few more dollars and time to spare, grab a table inside for an adventurous time you won't soon forget.... Easily the best steak around the Portland area for the flavor, price, and entertainment.

I love this place. I popped in for a casual Sunday afternoon lunch / lap dance and enjoyed the food, the company, the conversation, and the music thoroughly. The Acropolis is such a unique and beautiful place and they hire the most wonderful people.

Acropolis is there when you need them. After a bender week of partying from Sunday to Sunday, I did not feel like cooking and wanted a greasy burger (or gyro in my case), this place hits the spot. Decent size, cooked well, but fries are additional

Is it really a steakhouse? I heard that in Portland if you're going to have all nudity then you need to serve food and have gambling. Not sure if this is true. Can't beat the $5 steak and potato though. Portland is a very interesting place. I visited before it went caput.

I don't know if I would call this place a steak restaurant that happens to have beautiful naked women wandering around, or a strip club that happens to have really good food. It turns out that both are true! I had the Acrop Special (a perfectly cooked sirloin steak and fries), lots of eye candy for dessert, and some interesting conversations to boot! All in all, a great evening!

With the closure of Riverside Corral back in June 2023, Acropolis became the only strip club and the Sellwood area. So naturally, I sought them out as a new Riverside. I first visited back in October 2024, on a Sunday before going to the haunted house attraction at Oaks park. The $5 admission was a good deal, and I had no problem making myself at home and watching a chick with snake tattoos perform. Plus, the bartender was attentive with my soda water needs. I went back a couple more times that following november. During my second visit, I ordered the chicken steak. It came with two pieces of Texas toast, some large cut french fries, and a roll. The food was surprisingly tasty, though I was put off by how the roll was slightly burned. During my third visit, I bought a one song lap dance from Ricki, who was a sweetheart. My most recent visit was back in February for Valentine's Day weekend. There was a different bartender, Michelle, who was tending to the bar. She was friendly and helpful, and made me feel at home. It was during this visit that I ordered the turkey club sandwich, which I found to be much better than the chicken steak. I noticed that dancers will sometimes perform to considerably long songs, which compels me to tip them more than the usual club rate. Not only that, but I've noticed, at least during my fourth visit, that dancers perform to a mix of '70s,'80s, and/or '90s songs. That is a prominent plus in my book. I am confident that Acropolis is like a new Riverside Corral for me. My only complaint was the restroom. During all my visits, it was a disaster zone and needed some major renovation. Or at the very least, some major cleaning plus repairing the broken urinal. Hence the four-star rating instead of five. Whenever I go to Sellwood, I will have two attractions in mind: Oaks Park and Acropolis.
