Description and history

Overlook Restaurant is located at 1332 North Skidmore, near the intersection of North Skidmore and Interstate, in Portland's Overlook neighborhood. It has been operated by Jim and Jane Sassalos since 1974.[1]

In 2016, rumors began circulating that the restaurant would be closing. The Sassalos' initially denied immediate plans to close, but conceded, "Our business, per se, is not up for sale, but do they think we can just go on forever? At some point we have to have an end game. Wouldn't you if you were 80?"[1]

In March, documents filed with the Bureau of Development Services showed signs of the restaurant being replaced by an apartment complex.[1]
