I can only speak for desserts. I've had ricotta fruit tart and a peach pie and both of them were superb. The pastry and the balance between tartness and creamy elements were top notch.

This restaurant came recommended by a friend. So glad we checked it out while in town. Great food, great drinks, plus I found a new favorite local riesling (Mad Violets).

Best food I had in Portland. Be sure to get the bacon wrapped dates! The duck confit is also super good.

Had a fantastic lunch meeting here today. All of our entrees looked authentic and delicious. Everything was tasty and above average in my opinion.

Unbelievable food. Must gets are the butternut squash blossom (though seasonal) and Hawaiian walu butterfish--it just melts in your mouth.

Great food that is worth the wait on weekends though staff can get overwhelmed

Make a reservation or you will be sitting at the bar. Menu is printed daily. "Diplomatic Immunity" cocktail was great.

It's beautiful outside. Go have dinner on their patio! The Hawaiian walu is so tasty!

If you're stopping by for brunch, be sure to order the VQ-8. It's the house Bloody Mary, absolutely out of this world.

My standby. I am guaranteed a meal I love and good service. Rent the cellar for an intimate dinner with friends.

Make sure to ask to sit in the wine cellar for intimate gatherings. Not as loud as the dining room, and amazing ambiance and service!
Maciej SkierkowskiAugust 22, 2013
Order the Soufflé at the beginning, it takes 45 mins to make and you definitely need to get it.
Krisha MarcanoJune 24, 2016
Try the Seafood Stew, in fact everything is relish there so have at it!

Sit at the bar or on the patio, get the Osso Buco or the burger.

The food was good. The support staff seemed on top of things. Our waiter/server (Marshall) was awful. We weren't event sure he was our person because he only came by twice.
