3832 Northeast Sandy Boulevard, Portland

• Delivery

“Every time I come to Portland, there is an accompanying reservation at Xiao Ye. This place rocks! First generation American is an incredible way to frame their fusion and approach to food. Dishes are bold, seasonal, and use ingredients in ways one may never expect that lead to incredible bites. I love seeing the owners at their own place and you will frequently find either or both of them on expo or making rounds in the dining room. All their staff are lovely and hospitable. When I think of hospitality and good food, I think of Xiao Ye ❤️”

15 Olympia Provisions

4.5 Superb 533 Reviews

107 Southeast Washington Street, Portland

• Take-Out
• Delivery

“Olympia Provisions has remained a favorite of mine for a long time. Every dining experience has been positive. I've eaten both lunch and dinner there and strongly commend their different menus. Like any restaurant trying to please a wider audience, the menu goes places unexpected or, perhaps, unnecessary. Meat is obviously their strength (but they are definitely not a steak house), so I would encourage choosing where they are strongest; their charcuterie boards certainly come to mind. I'll add that their salads are quite good and that the bar service has never disappointed, especially if Amaro is your thing. Really, this is one restaurant worthy of trying (and then frequenting).”

“Street disco has a cool vibe from the minute you walk in! The music, the welcome and the atmosphere were on point! Our server had such a fun vibrant personality and was extremely knowledgeable! The plates are small so encouraged to share and recommended to order 10-12 plates for the five of us. My favorite plates were the snap pea salad and the carrots with lots of flavor and fun flavor profiles! Our table was extremely satisfied with all of our choices. My only complaint was the literal two bites of Octopus, if I had realized that I would have ordered something different. The pork belly and meatballs were more of a satisfying portion My only complaint was”

“One of the only places in all of Portland for Furry meets (every month!) Was extremely impressed with the staff and how easy it was to order via QR code. Our half tray of pizza was more than enough to feed our table of four and for $30 it was the best pizza by far I've had in years. Both sour ales I had were exceptional. This place is a gem.”

21 Ruthie's

4.5 Superb 63 Reviews

3532 Southeast Division Street, Portland

“I had moderately high expectations since Ruthie’s is popular. The food exceeded those expectations. We got the tuna crudo, pasta, and pork shoulder. All three dishes were outstanding - some of the better food we’ve had in the city, even when compared to our fine dining favorites (L’Orange, Ava Genes, MEC, Bellwether, etc.). Very impressed with the quality of food that came out of this small kitchen. Currently located in THE END, which I appreciate… although a bit louder than our old souls liked.”

23 Rum Club

4.7 Superb 271 Reviews

720 Southeast Sandy Boulevard, Portland

• Delivery

“Heard about this place, traveling through Portland, made a point of going, we're very glad we did. The vibe is kind of Tiki Bar meets Dive meets Upscale. A little dark, funky, but clean. Small, but plenty of room. The regulars were cool. The bartender Juice is most cool, and knowledgeable and friendly, but not overly so. Meaning he's just cool. Enjoyed the experience of learning about and sampling his mixology craft. Food and drinks were tasty. Drinks were superb, unusual, in the good way. Highly recommended. Will go back next chance I get. Ps. Happy Hour is great.”

• Take-Out
• Delivery

“Mmm, mmm, mmm. Got the Fresh Prince and it was so fresh, it talked back! Just kidding, sandwiches don't talk but if they did, this one is whispering sweet nothings to my belly. The bread was the true Prince. Opted for sourdough and it was tasty and even had a bit of crunch! No rubbery texture causing the ingredients to slide out with each bite. I got the small size as they come in large or small and it was perfect for what I needed since I wasn't overly hungry. Great first visit. I'll have to keep this one on my radar!”

“February 8th, 2026 menu & service was absolutely divine! Start to finish service and all staff present were absolutely charming and very attentive. Presentation was beautiful, the atmosphere felt very warm, cozy and inviting. Plates were absolutely stunning in all ways. The textures in each dish were just so perfect, exciting and unique. The flavors complimented each other so well and each course was perfectly balanced, flowing nicely into the next. Everything was absolutely perfect, the thrill of enjoying such technical yet plant based preperations genuinly brings tears of joy. Thank you so for so perfectly encapsulating the possibilities of plant based foods! 💚💚 We were happy to hear about the recipes staying and going from the menu, we couldn't agree more with the choices. The Kombucha pairings were magical. Meadowland was perfect. The respect payed to plants here, the absolutely mind blowing creativity that leaves you craving more, makes Astera stand out as a historical evolution for plant based flavor, technical creativity, creation, service and passion in the plant based realm in the U.S. Astera is heaven on earth. I cannot express enough gratitude for such a wonderful little spot, thank you for such tasty snacks!! We will be back very soon, hoping to experience the seasons with you!”

The elegant yet relaxed atmosphere was perfect for a leisurely meal with friends or family.”

• Take-Out

“The unexpected freshness of food ordered at the counter paired with reasonable prices are a great find so close to the airport for a weary traveler or sending a loved one off to a new destination. The building is wheelchair accessible, as are the bathrooms. The furniture/table arrangement is a little dicey, but completely navigable. I called ahead to make sure they had gluten free options a d was assured that they did. When I got there they did have some gluten-free main plates and said they could make many others without gluten, but they don't carry substitute breads or pastas. Overall it was the nice atmosphere, tasty food, and ample parking that made this a great place to grab a quick, healthy and delicious bite.”

• Take-Out

“The Muddy Rudder has (in my opinion) some of the best pizza that I've had in Portland. Their menu is pretty straightforward, good appetizers, pizzas, calzones, and some sandwiches and salads. Their beer list is ever-changing and always very good, there is a full bar so options for boozy drinks are available and kids can even get their own Shirley Temples, lime-aid, etc. The staff is always friendly and the music is always great, whether it is played over the stereo or one of the many live acts they have performing on a number of nights each month. When the weather is cold and the fireplace is burning there aren't many other places I'd rather be outside of my home.”
