“If only someone could figure how to get Russian food right! Oh wait, these guys just did! An innovative take on Russian cuisine, modernizing it while staying true to its essence. We had a very enjoyable experience here. The staff were great, offered insightful recommendations and were very professional. The food was amazing. The lobster olivieh (on the special menu) was a star! The Zakuskis both hot and cold were amazing. The wine list was great! You can't leave without trying some vodka obviously. The ironic Soviet decorations were spot on! I've included some photos here. I'd highly recommend this spot!“

“We get to experience a lot of the Portland dining scene and we're grateful for that. Every once in a while a place hits different. The food is good, sure. And the drinks are good too. But in Portland for better or worse you're going to get pretty good food and good drinks. The places that hit different have a little bit of magic in them. It's the food. It's the drinks. And often it's an incredible, perfect mix of context and hospitality. We got to experience C'est Si Bon on a night that was our anniversary. The kids were at home with their grandparents. We were in no rush. We were ready to experience a new restaurant. And we just happened to luck out that John, the owner, took care of us. He took us on a tour of his menu, both food and wine, while regaling us with stories from a dozen years in Portland food and beverage and another decade in France. Chef was on point. John was a delight. And we ended up having an experience we couldn't have reserved and would've been unreasonable to hope for. It was a human experience, sprinkled with incredible food and wine along the way. We feel like we just discovered a not-so-secret gem of the Portland food scene a decade after moving to town. “We'll be back” feels like the understatement of the decade. Thanks John and Chef!“

“A fun time with a really friendly and knowledgeable owner! Pro: -If you have your heart set on the nook or any other seat, you can make a reservation in advance online. -We enjoyed their wines and found a big variation in each pour, so there should be at least one pour that will suit your group's tastes! -The owner is a delight & the cave like interior makes the experience more intimate and cozy -Get the original grilled cheese. The bread and cheese are all good quality! Con: -Reservations cost $10 per person, and that is not refunded or deducted from your balance Get there earlier in the night to ensure a seat!“

“Boy, do I wish I lived closer to this spot! I would 100% be a regular. I would come in after work a few days every week and wave hello to the staff, order up a small froze, a cheese platter and then maybe follow it all up with a cup of soft serve after thinking for a LONG time about whether I wanted it sprinkled with beet or chai dust. Here's what I actually ordered on my first and only time at Cheese and Crack: 1. A small froze. This may be hard to believe, but I had never had a froze before. It was a good thing this was a small, I don't love overly alcoholic tasting drinks, this one felt like a slushy, pink and easy. 2. A cheese platter for two with a brulee torched brie, a delicious cheddar, three kinds of crackers that appeared to be all homemade and a ton of side accompaniments, like cornichons, olives, apple butter, mustard and chocolate ganache. 3. A dish of soft serve with beet dust You can sit inside OR outside and watch the world go by. Everything was great and did not break the bank.“

“Such a great restaurant! My wife had recently been put on a gluten and dairy free exclusion diet and they were able to accommodate and everything was still absolutely delicious. Service is phenomenal and it’s a really beautiful restaurant.“
“We have been dining at Gilda’s for 6 months. Thank you to our friends Linda and Paul for introducing us to this wonderful restaurant. The food is authentic and delicious. It is a family owned restaurant and the pride of the naturally sourced ingredients is very evident. Everything is made in house. The service is exemplary! Go, you won’t be sorry!“

“Such a delicious, well proportioned, and complete sandwich. My second time coming back and every menu item I’ve tried so far has been great.Interior is clean and cozy.Hours are a bit funky otherwise I’d probably frequent much more often. It’s important to remember this is a butcher shop first and foremost - we’re just lucky enough that they happen to serve great sandwiches on the side.“

“I make it a point to visit Canard Burnside on all of my trips to Portland! The unique flavors and presentations on their menu keep me coming back for more. Had the roasted beets last night for the first time and the flavor was out of this world.“
“I’ve been coming to the barrio since it opened almost 10 years ago and have always really loved this place! It’s my daily and special occasion go to, Chris, the owner is welcoming & warm as well as always accommodating! Dog friendly, best sangria in the city & a really awesome atmosphere :) 10/10 I couldn’t say enough!“

“Went in during the middle of the week. It was an early afternoon and received service relatively quick.Service was fast and kind. They were honest and transparent of the wait time.I ordered the prosciutto and green olive pie.Pizza was cooked to perfection and you can tell the ingredients were fresh! Pizza was delicious and I don’t even like olives! Seriously, I’ll be coming in and trying all their other pies.Will come again.“
“This is one of my favorite places in Portland to meet girlfriends or friends. They have the most amazing wines and excellent prices. They have wines from all over the world here. They also have a wonderful menu of very tasty items to enjoy with your wine. I look forward to coming to Division Wines when I am in Portland“
“Cute little wine bar tucked away on the busy streets of Belmont. It's definitely tight in there so not suggested for larger groups. I can imagine that during the summertime, the outdoor seating would a vibe. Also great selection of wines.“
“My partner and I come here every now and again, the server Tia is always so friendly and patient with us while figuring out our drinks and the comedy shows on Thursday nights are hands down the best and most well curated “underground” comedy in Portland. 10/10 would recommend if looking for a great taproom.“

“The staff was amazing, friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. The cocktails were also excellent, loved the Penicillin I got. The decor in the building was also fun, but the downstairs bar was a bit humid, muggy, and was hard to be in. So we spent our time “

“What a wonderful night out with friends. Bar Mingo has a great atmosphere. We started at the bar enjoying house bread and a few glasses of wine while we waited for our table.The staff was super amazing and we never wanted for anything.The food speaks for itself. Just look at these photos. The lasagna was out of this world and I guess Wednesday are is Risotto night.I went home very satisfied“

“Most tender, well flavored chicken I’ve eaten. Delicious! The white meat was unbelievably moist and the skin crisp and delightfully smoky. Simple presentation that was perfect for my in things being an unostentatious. Beet and grapefruit salad was a wonderfully surprising combination of flavors. We had a half order each of the potatoes and sweet potatoes to round everything off. Wonderful comfort food and my favorite place to go with my best friends.“
“Best hidden gem of a wine bar in North Portland. Cozy, comfy space.Half glasses available and great variety. The staff is knowledgeable and helpful in navigating your wine journey. Cocktails available if wines are not your thing. Small bites to complete your tasting. Take away bottles are available.Absolutely love Gilded Raccoon!“
“first time here and i really love this place, it has such a welcoming vibe. the staff is knowledgeable of their wines, friendly and nice. You can tell the owner really puts in the effort for the ambience of a this wine shop. At the entrance there are multiple games you can chose from to enjoy your time. I will be coming back again. My advice is just take your coat off and stay awhile.“

“There are no half stars, so I feel odd about the 4. It was better than 4 but not a 5. A traditional Japanese restaurant on the ground floor of an office building. The warm wood furnishings blended nicely with all the glass frontage. Counter service for sushi, as well as small private dining rooms that I definitely want to check out on another visit. Murata's service, ambience and *most* of the food we tried were stellar. Not quite 5 star for us entirely because of the rice served along with our meals. I ordered unaju, served in a 3 tiered set of dishes with a light salad in one, 3 good sized slices of unagi in another, and the driest rice ever served at a decent Japanese restaurant in the third. I needed every bit of the kabayaki sauce to make it even partly edible. Sent most of the rice back with other empty dishes. My dining companion commented that we should bring baggies of our own rice cooked at home next time. My dining companion had a combo set of salmon shioyaki plus sushi. The salmon was nicely grilled and flavorful. Luckily the sushi rice is not the same. All the fush cuts were excellent. The hotate (scallop) as well as the shimaaji were excellent. A slice of fresh cantaloupe rounded out the meal with a light freshness. The price was very reasonable for the service and quality of food (rice excepted) and we will be going back and likely trying to get sushi counter seats.“

“The new owners are incredibly friendly and expedient. The wind selection is fantastic and the appetizer selection was fresh and generous. We had so much fun exploring a few wines and eating 3 appetizers and didn't need to go to dinner after all. Thank you!“

“I'm not a huge pizza fan, and coming from Chicago, I have a lot of deep dish experience, so was somewhat skeptical. But Ranch was close by and had good reviews so we tried it. We got the Four and I was a Ranch Pizza fan with the first bite. That crunchy cheesy edge and the combo of a great sausage, peppers and fresh mozzarella won me over. The quality of the toppings makes a huge difference. Don't tell my birthplace, but I'm a Detroit pizza lover now, but not from just anywhere, it's gotta be from Ranch Pizza!“

“We Loved Serrato's. We have been going there since the Nineties, and go about once a month. Two negative notes. It was extremely noisy and conversation was almost impossible. I know it's true of almost all restaurants these - they lack of tablecloths doesn't help. and the prices seem to have gone up a deal. However, IT IS STILL A GREAT RESTAURANT. The staff are friendly and helpful, the food is just sensational, and ether's valet parking. apart from minor irritations, it's heaven on earth!“

“I had one of the best dishes that I have ever had the pleasure of putting in my mouth. Upon the waitresses enthusiastic recommendation (she seemed really excited about it) I went with the Boscaiola with pasta instead of ravioli. Every bite I took I closed my eyes to just enjoy the explosion of flavors. Hands down best food ever. Highly recommend but don’t forget your reservation!“

“I walked into Stem the day I moved into my building which is conveniently next door. Chris immediately made an environment where I knew this was going to be my Livingroom. So I've been going here since I moved here two years ago. Morgan! My favorite Sommelier has taught me soooo much about the beauty of wine and has always suggested everything perfected to my taste. Eliza became a fast friend while we discussed all the wine. I am in awe every day watching her pour out a red and white wine flight on the same tray and know where she positioned them so she could provide the info of each wine as she presented it. I have been SO impressed by the vibe that has been created and maintained over the years. Ever wanna have a glass of good wine in your jammies before bed? This is the place. Oh yeah, it's obviously an amazing date spot. Please come so I can eavesdrop.“

“Yum! A friend recommended this place for the wine selection, which I don't drink, but she enjoyed it! The food was AMAZING!! Pros: Staff was friendly and accommodating Variety of food for any eaters! Great wine/cocktail/mocktail list Easy to get reservations Cons: 4th floor and the elevator has been broken for a while If you sit on the patio or by the west windows during sunset hours its REALLY bright and they don't close the curtains, but they do offer sunglasses!“
“Jeff, the patron, has filled the establishment with his own eclectic mix of offerings. The choices of beer and wine demonstrate that the selection has been planned for diversity and enjoyment. The atmosphere is great and feels like the neighborhood bar that we want to walk to.“

“One of the owners definitely made me cry with a super dismissive and condescending attitude towards me as a solo diner who doesn’t drink. I come for the food which is AMAZING! The other servers are lovely and the food is outstanding so it won’t stop me from going back but heads up for anyone trying to have a sober solo date ?“
“I highly recommmend this place. Really great for a small group going out for drinks and entrees; or a cozy intimate date. Excelent classy atmosphere, music and decor. Nice selection of drinks and cocktails including some fancy ones. Good selection of cheese plates, and Katie and Juan-Martin at the bar will prepare any cocktail you fancy. Entry door a bit hidden: enter the Loyal Legion, head for the kitchen, and the open door to the left with no sign and going downstairs will take you there.“
“Stopped in while staying in Portland for a few days and found this treasure. We had a happy hour glass and came back the next day for 4 bottles. Jeffery gave excellent recommendations and was clearly loved by the local regulars. We will certainly return on our next trip. Thanks Jeffery!“
“Love this place! The by-the-glass list is ever-changing and never boring. All the ciders & wines I’ve tasted there have been smashable, and the owner is a great guy. They also have an awesome selection of fun ciders and wines by the bottle so you’ll never get bored.“

“I've been a little delayed in my reviews. I may gorget the name if some of the cocktails but will remember the food and service. This place was great and amazing. A very short walk from the train stop and a very nice setting. There are two side this place. I captured the dining area as this was where we were seated. The food was delicious and the drinks were not watered down. Service was great.“

“So this one time, I was on a road trip. I stopped in at a casino, and I put $20 in the slot machine. After a few spins, I was feeling lucky, and I hit “max bet”.Turns out it was perfect timing because I hit the bonus on the next spin. I ended up walking out with $180.Fast forward to when I was heading home on the same trip- I stopped for gas, and decided to spend $2 on a scratch off. I ended up winning $20.I took a chance on something small, but with mighty potential, and it paid off. Twice.That’s what kind of place this is. Stop by, take a chance, and see what happens.The wine is excellent, and the staff is so incredible that they are now friends of mine.If you’re looking for a new spot to try, this is it.“

“What a lovely establishment with beautiful details and a welcoming and inviting vibe. From the chocolates on the counter to the carefully chosen tins of fish, to the friendly bartender and the delightful rose. Bar Botellon is a gem, where they really make you feel like you're the only customer in the place. This is my new favorite stop for a glass of wine and some delicious handmade tapas (try the marinated cheese and the sardines!!!!!!) I will be back!“
“My fiancé and I hosted our wedding proposal at Enso Winery and we couldn't be happier. Ryan was extremely accommodating and organized during the planning process and helpful on the day of the event. Between the venue, wine, and charcuterie, all of our guests left impressed and happy. Definitely won't be a stranger to Enso!“
“Bar Rione is a lovely wine bar next door to Piazza Italia, an authentic Italian, tasty, affordable food with classic Italian service and beautiful wine selection. Friendly, clean, and happy environment for great food. Annually, the put on a Truffle Dinner with a guest chef from Italy who brings black truffles for the meal. Special event with special people.“

“We finally checked out this lovely bar on Saturday night and I can say it is as inviting inside as it looks from the sidewalk. We've walked by a few times and heard the great music and peered in and I'm so glad we decided to step inside. The bar smelled incredible because they were making their housemade limoncello. We sat near the bar and enjoyed a nicely-made Manhattan, glass of red wine, crispy melty mozzarella sticks, and a very yummy burger and fries. Everyone was friendly and the ambience is perfect. It was dark but warm, full of plants and fun lighting. The disco rhino over the restroom door made us giggle. We will definitely return soon. 6 stars!“

“Great pho with better than most cuts of meat. My wife got the pad thai and said she enjoyed it very much. Would recommend to friends. They were also very nice to my 2.5 year old daughter and were considerate enough to bring a small bowl for her to share some of our food with.“
“Super cute and inviting tasting room. Wines were fabulous! When we entered, Barbara came out from behind the counter to greet us at the door and welcome us. What a special touch that set the tone for the experience. The tasting room offers both indoor and outdoor seating (front and back patios). The 2016 Reserve Pinot Noir is exceptionally pleasant. The wine club options are very reasonable (surprisingly reasonable for the quality we experienced - so much so that we joined)! Pay them a visit; you’ll be glad you did.“

“Such great service. It was pi day and they served pie so of course we had to get some. It is rare for any bars to serve a sweet treat at least in the area I live in. I love that they had three options. Perfectly decorated wine bar with an upstairs loft area.“

“This is such a quaint and upscale place for an evening in Downtown Portland. Our sommelier engaged in an enlightening discourse about the origin and production of our wines and the Pacific Northwest food scene. Charming service. Serenaded by his lyrical Brazilian accent, we enjoyed our evening learning about wine and local foods.“

“This is the spot. Full, lively, definitely seemed like the place to be if you're into wine. We paid a lot for a pretty small lobster roll but it was tasty. We really need to try the other food. Our server was really helpful with trying to figure out what to pair with our taste and food.“

“For sure this place is a hidden gem! Amazing food, small menu, fresh ever changing. Im not going to remove a star because I still love this place... however, they used to have the best cocktails ever!!! Like amazing came here almost every week to indulge. There bartender Tina left and now the cocktails are not worth spending the money on. Their name is wine and growl so I will have to shift to drinking wine here... although I can have wine at home but what I cant do at home is make those amazing speciality drinks.“

“Loooove this spot! If you want really good wine in a chill setting or need to grab a bottle, this is your place! We were lucky enough to chat with the owner, Matt. He was so kind and gave amazing recommendations for our wines. We will absolutely be coming back, and next time we will bring our son. He let us know that they are kid friendly, and that means a lot to us. Basically, you should totally come and support Matt and his team, while having some REALLY good wine.“

“Honestly was the best steak house I’ve been to… I liked how the waiter explained the whole process to the table, gave great recommendations & the chef gave us a free soup sample. All the food was 5/5 stars. Best steak & pork chop hands down.“
