Best servers I’ve ever! One girl had to keep it on lock and she really came through!

Cool ambiance. But they rush you out. Super annoying. Wine is mediocre.

Great ambiance and spot-on cocktails and wine. A favorite hideaway to sip and savor. Try the specialty cocktails, you won’t be disappointed.

Had a reservation for my partners birthday, we were sat right away. Service was a little slow but we both work in the industry we were understanding and enjoying being on the other side of things. The oysters ( amazing) and lobster roll (however small) were both delicious. We ordered the braised short ribs, they were very dry, not inedible but the process of braising meat should not result in dry meat. We both took a bite and put in to the side, the waitress never apologized (I know she is the middle man, she didn’t make this dish) I asked for the check and still tipped 30%. I, as the face of a restaurant and the chef would have absolutely asked if there was anything else the customer might want or still bring dessert seeing that the customer was dissatisfied and cool about it but no. I recommend this spot for a drink and appetizer before dinner.

Very sweet small bar tucked away in a cozy alley. The service was fantastic-got my party of two seated quickly even though we didn’t have a reservation on a Friday. The drinks were great as well as the oysters but the octopus I ordered bordered on being too salty.

Bar Diane is a bad neighbor. Tonight (1/16/24), they've left their music blasting all through the night, which is easily heard not only through the neighboring houses but through the entire apartment building Bar Diane resides in. This has happened multiple times, and ownership isn't interested in correcting their behavior despite repeated complaints.

YUM! My fiancée and I were visiting Portland from London, and desperately searching for a natural wine bar. Bar Diane delivered! Their entire wine menu is natural wines, and to our delight, they had a surprisingly great range of local Oregonian natural wines on top of the typical French and Italian selection! Very unique for the area. We had a delicious chilled red and an orange, both local Oregonian wines. But, for the locals, the natural French and Italian selections should be a treat! We also had a few appetisers, which were a treat. Highly recommend!

Really great servers, great wine selection. Food comes out FAST, is good, but extremely overpriced. Small plates, with little variety in palette on the menu. If price is no concern and you don't mind anchovies and similar "funky" flavors--this place is for you.

The cocktails are decent and the wine selection is great but the prices and service are not. I know this part of town skews rich but when Bar Diane first opened it had kinder pricing and a much nicer staff. Now if you don't dress like an investment banker you're treated like an inconvenience.

Vibes are immaculate. Great for a date or wine with friends ?

I like this place. In summer it was so nice sitting outside. Love their orange wine. A cozy place for a nice evening.
