- MMonicaSan Francisco Bay Area •8 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoWe’ve always had a great experience at Nostrana, and love to celebrate special occasions there. Ensalata Nostrana and Pizza with extra fixings are a great standby; last night we got the Papardelle as well, so good! Excellent wine list and the Tiramisu is a perfect way to end the meal.More infoNostranaPrice: Expensive• Italian• Southeast Portland•4.7
- DDougVIPSan Diego •4 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoEvery dish we ordered was very tasty. Not too spicy and very flavorful. The khao soy, papaya salad, and the hat yai fried chicken to die for! Lobster pad thai and crispy duck ka pow with the volcano noodles topped off the feast for just four of us. Then we managed to top it off with a boat dish of various desserts for us all to share! Oh my! Service was excellent and the pinot a perfect choice for pairing along with the flight of whiskey. Wonderful all around!More infoFarmhouse Kitchen Thai Cuisine - Pearl DistrictPrice: Expensive• Thai• Pearl District•4.6
- EElizabethSan Francisco Bay Area •6 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoThey had me at Focaccia! This restaurant is a total gem. Wonderful intimate ambiance, great staff, nice to see the chefs working away in the open kitchen. The food will keep you coming back - I know I will! I visited with a friend and we shared focaccia bread and three dishes and then each had a dessert - so perfect!!! Top notch fresh ingredients make the difference here - Yum!More infoDolly OlivePrice: Expensive• Italian• Northwest Portland•4.8

- JJasonPortland / Oregon •3 reviews4.0Dined on Nov 9, 2024The place has a good atmosphere. The service is great, They are attentive without being obtrusive a hard balance to strike. The food is good. The value at happy hour was quite good. Really do my wife and I finish dinner at around $50 and that was with 2 ciders. It was a perfect place to have dinner being only a mile from the Moda center where we saw a concert that night. If you are looking for a place to eat that is close to event centers this is a great option.More infoToroPrice: Moderate• Latin American• Pearl District•4
