I didn't eat there. I went to the market. I was looking for a specific seasoning imported from Sicily. They were the only place I could find it in Portland. The prices seem to be average for imported foods. I spent an additional $50 on goodies on top of what I went in for. I no longer eat pasta sadly so I did not try their homemade pasta.

This might be my fave Italian ever! Every pasta I have tried has been amazing. The wine selection is good and the atmosphere could not feel more Italian. We go back again and again and again.

My favorite restaurant in all of Portland. I started coming here in 2021 and have tried so many different pastas and i fall in love with each of them! I would recommend making reservations especially if you wanna sit inside friday-sunday.

First time at the restaurant. Love the little market and had been here before!

As far as the restaurant, the food and outdoor seating was underwhelming, at least not what I expected. The wine/drink list was much smaller than I expected, VERY limited wine list. Had a glass of the white and red wine which came in a water glass. The white wine tasted like it was opened the day before. The Burrata, Meatballs, and Ravioli Special dishes were worth having again, but the Mafaldine could've had a thicker/richer sauce and the Lumache Alla Vodka was SUPER salty. The service was great though! Wasn't going to complain to the server but probably won't go back to the restaurant, only the market.

Came a few weeks ago and couldn't get this off my mind. Overall, the food was good. However, I think we caught them on a bad day. We never got water. At first, it was fine because we ordered drinks but they clearly forgot about us after awhile. We also didn't like one of the pastas the waiter recommended. We asked for another pasta and the waiter seemed annoyed. We were willing to pay for both so it's not like we were trying to get a free meal. When it was approaching 9p (closing time). We were unaware it was near 9. They came out and told us to leave as they wanted to go home. Totally fine being kicked out at closing time but how they worded it was off-putting. Still like the food but was saddened by the service we got

I realize that it should not even be expected that a focacceria would offer gluten free options...but since you do why not try a little harder. My gluten free focaccia was awful. Very dry and stale tasting. Toppings were dry and sunken into the base as if the focaccia had been reheated several times. Very disappointing.

Although we didnt eat there, they have a very nice seeting area and menu items we look forward in trying. Also have a pastry case with various items. They have many specialty products that we purchased. A very nice selection from Italy and Greece to name a few.

Love this spot. Everyone is super friendly and knowledgeable about the dishes and specialty cocktails served.

The market side has quality ingredients and products not easily found anywhere else.

Predictably busy nights I recommend planning a longer wait as there is not a ton of seating.

This was our first time and we can’t wait to go back! From the appetizers to the main entrees of pasta to the dessert, everything was packed with flavor and was exceptional!

First time visiting Portland, and we stumbled upon this place by accident — what a find! If you’re a fan of authentic, fresh pasta made with pure, high-quality ingredients, this spot is a true gem. Everything was absolutely delicious, and their tiramisu might just be the best I’ve ever had.

The only downside was that we were a group of eight, and they didn’t have a table big enough to seat us all together, so they had to split us into two tables placed side by side.

Food is excellent! Price is very high for certain items but others aren’t so bad. Definitely a good choice if you are in the area.

The Lumache pasta is to die for- one of, if not my favorite dish in Portland. Great service, drinks, and portion sizes too. Highly recommend!
