The menu has included chorizo burritos, fish tacos, poutine, Caesar salad, Brussels sprouts, and a vegan barbecue sandwich.{{Cite web |last=Frane |first=Alex |date=2018-11-30 |title=Portland's Legit Late-Night Happy Hours |url=https://pdx.eater.com/maps/portland-late-night-happy-hours |access-date=2022-03-10 |website=Eater Portland |language=en |archive-date=2021-10-21 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211021080041/https://pdx.eater.com/maps/portland-late-night-happy-hours |url-status=live }}

He wrote, "Not only is it open every day at 9 a.m. with the full drink menu on offer, but the diner-style bar Radio Room is open 365 days a year for year-round day-drinking. With an extensive breakfast and lunch menu, full bar, cocktails, beer, wine, and coffee drinks, it's easy to while away a day here, especially out on the double-decker patio with a view of Alberta."{{Cite web |last=Frane |first=Alex |date=2018-02-20 |title=14 Spots to Day-Drink in Portland |url=https://pdx.eater.com/maps/best-day-drinkings-bars-cocktails-portland |access-date=2022-03-10 |website=Eater Portland |language=en |archive-date=2020-12-30 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201230182650/https://pdx.eater.com/maps/best-day-drinkings-bars-cocktails-portland |url-status=live }} In 2020, he also included the restaurant in an overview of "Portland's Legit Late-Night Happy Hours" and a list of "Portland's 9 Ideal Rooftop Patios for Views, Drinks, and Sun".{{Cite web |last=Frane |first=Alex |date=2019-06-04 |title=Portland's 9 Ideal Rooftop Patios For Views, Drinks, and Sun |url=https://pdx.eater.com/maps/rooftop-patios-portland |access-date=2022-03-10 |website=Eater Portland |language=en |archive-date=2020-11-04 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201104230339/https://pdx.eater.com/maps/rooftop-patios-portland |url-status=live }} The website's Brooke Jackson-Glidden included Radio Room in a 2020 overview of "Where to Throw a Bachelorette Party in Portland", writing: "In an artsy-funky space on Alberta, Radio Room is a good choice for a relaxed meal with plenty of drinks.

Radio Room was also included in Eater Portland's 2021 list of "14 Cozy Portland Restaurants and Bars with Fireplaces". The website said, "Although Radio Room is mostly known for its large outdoor fireplace on the lower-floor patio, the dining room with the retro bingo sign is also home to a burly wood stove. To lean into the cold-weather vibes, opt for a bowl of the soup du jour, or a hearty plate of brunch biscuits and gravy."{{Cite web |last= |first= |date=2014-11-14 |title=14 Cozy Portland Restaurants and Bars with Fireplaces |url=https://pdx.eater.com/maps/portland-restaurants-bars-fireplaces |access-date=2022-03-10 |website=Eater Portland |language=en |archive-date=2021-12-22 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211222180145/https://pdx.eater.com/maps/portland-restaurants-bars-fireplaces |url-status=live }} Frane also included Radio Room in a 2022 list of "17 Portland Bar Patios for Winter Revelry".
