This place is pricey, and over-rated. The ambience is nice, but the noise is a bit too much. I tried a "flight" for $23 and got two small pours of average wine. We got the raw fish cerviche-type appetizer which was excellent. I got the $22 burger which was significantly over-priced since the "medium rare" was on the well-done side of medium, and the fig BBQ sauce was overly rich and abundant....the fries, however, were among the best I've ever had. My partner got the carrot side dish which was over-washed in a too-tangy sauce that flooded the entire plate. The 23% surcharge got us a waiter who scratched his rib cage twice while attending to us. I used to love Cafe Castangna....this place is a so-so to poor substitute at a higher price. If I'm gonna pay these prices ($131 for two of us), I expect much better attention to detail and significantly better quality.

We went for a birthday and had the worst service I’ve ever experienced at a Portland restaurant. Our server, was rude and combative. This is way sad the because the server was helping with a pop up and impacting the pop up. I reached out to the restaurant the next day to speak to a manager, left a message, never received a call back. Call back twice more the restaurant never answered their phone.

We tried OK OMEN kind of serendipitously and were totally surprised enchanted. There are combinations of flavors that are seemingly odd but it all works together. Staff were gracious and helpful .

Delicious combination of unusual flavors in every dish. With each bite, you can tell the chef is a master at his craft. Reasonable prices for the quality of the food.

We enjoyed a memorable evening at OK Omens last night. I started with the Fall Salad of Apples & Pears which had the most wonderful flavors. My husband's Torito Salad was also amazing. I had the Halibut for my main course, which was perfect. My husband's Pastitio was incredible. Our friends with us also enjoyed their meals. Our server was delightful. She was very detail-oriented & we were never without whatever we needed. I can't say enough positive things about our dining experience at OK Omens. We look forward to going back again soon!
