Had a nice dinner here! Love the tapas style. Some were a challenge to share, so not really tapas. But good overall was great. Enjoyed the service as well.

Simply some of the best food I’ve ever had. Well balanced flavours in appealing combinations presented with just enough class to set it apart from the mundane. The atmosphere of the small restaurant is warm, feels almost communal, bustling yet the staff’s service felt personal.
We did the chef’s tasting menu which took us over their highlights. Everything was both unique and slowly savoured.
Add this to your next Portland trip.

I think it’s a good restaurant overall, but the experience left a lot to be desired. Our tomato salad was served with a produce sticker still on it, and while our server apologized, no manager came by to acknowledge the mistake. The salad was simply remade, but nothing was comped or offered as a gesture, which is usually standard when something like this happens.
Later, after some back-and-forth about drinks, our server (who was kind overall) brought me a cocktail I hadn’t ordered. Even my dinner companion confirmed I had asked for the other one. The server then attempted to argue, but quickly stopped herself. Having served tables in college, we were always told to repeat the order back to guests, especially when a guest is undecided between options, as it tends to really reduce mistakes. We also asked a different server for a spoon to share our soup (maybe it was bisque) when he brought our dishes and it never happened.
As for the food, it was hit-or-miss. A couple of dishes were excellent, while others were just plain underwhelming. Overall, it didn’t feel like a $200+ experience. I might consider coming back, but I’m definitely not eager to.

Spot on service including great descriptions of drinks and tapas. And wow - hard to say which item was best as they all were amazing! Ok, maybe the corn chowder wins…

Wowwwww. This concept is so fun and everything from service to ambience was perfect. The meal was amazing! Tuna crudo was possibly the best bite I’ve ever had. Will say the lobster popover didn’t live up to expectations, but to be fair everything else blew my mind.

Minus the extra bright light over our heads, we had an amazing experience. Please get rid of the halogen and put in a dimmable LED

Stopped in for happy hour for the first time even though I’ve lived here for awhile, and it was amazing! Definitely don’t sleep on this gem; Cole and Travis made some amazing drinks and they were so fun to chat with! Can’t wait to come back!
