- JJenniferPortland / Oregon •6 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoFlavorful display of beautiful South American tapas style cuisine! Wagyu steak tartare, grilled octopus, and Brandt farms flat iron steak were among some of my favorites. The cocktails are delicious and beautifully garnished! I recommend the sangria! We will definitely be back to try the next “what the chef is eating” lineup!More infoLeChonPrice: Moderate• South American• Southwest Portland•4.9
- BBarbaraPortland / Oregon •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoThe service was phenomenal. I cannot rave enough about the tandoori salmon and the chicken Tikka masala. The ice cream trio of cardamom, mango, and chocolate was incredible also. Thank you for a wonderful eveningMore infoEast India Co. Grill & BarPrice: Moderate• Indian• Downtown•4.6
- KKristopherMinneapolis - St. Paul •2 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoWe had a really memorable dinner with our 12 year old daughter who loved the pizza. The menu variety offered something for everyone. The preparation of the gnocchi (2 large rather than the smaller finger-sized) was a neat and delicious twist and the skirt steak was cooked perfectly. Our server had spot-on wine recommendations that paired nicely with our meals. Excited for a return visit.More infoNostranaPrice: Expensive• Italian• Southeast Portland•4.7

- 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•4.1
