Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in Gresham / Troutdale

Our server was excellent, had a nice time chit chatting with him. I was so happy they served A-1 sauce and didn’t make me feel bad for asking. I barely used it tho - the steak was so good and was actually better without it. Their onion rings are literally the best I’ve ever had. We had the Wagyu - it was an experience but I think if I came back I’ll just get the steak - we had a fillet mignon - it was good but I think I’ll try the rib eye next time. A nice place to dress up for.

A perfect dinner (seated at counter) at Nostrana. Went on a Thursday - gnocchi night. I usually don’t choose gnocchi, but am now a convert - so pillowy and tender, and the clam sauce I chose was buttery, seasoned greatness. Our server was friendly, warm, and efficient and suggested an alternative wine by the glass that was from next door that was so good we bought a bottle to take home. Consistently amazing, and impressed my husband for date night.

Food, service, ambience - great dinner from beginning to end!

We went the day before Christmas Eve and it was the most amazing and memorable experience of a lifetime! We had just found out that my FIL has a very aggressive form of cancer and this was a memory none of us will ever forget. The six of us ordered about 9 HH apps and two entrees and everything was a 10/10! The food was the out of this world, our server was the most attentive we’d ever had, and the ambiance was quiet, exciting, and amazing the entire time. I highly recommend this tapas-style culinary experience of a lifetime!

We had an amazing meal, both vegetarian and omnivore alike. Wine pairings were very good and brought out the flavors in the food.
