Pan Asian Restaurants near Portland, OR

“Norah is a wonderful place for dinner. It's often crowded for good reason, so make a reservation or be prepared to wait. But it's worth it! The dishes are unassuming with Asian flair - mostly Thai and Indian, with a bit of fusion here and there. Every dish is satisfying and packs in great flavors. I've had their Pad Thai, Bibimbap, Holy Basil Eggplant, and vegan rangoons. They serve purple rice berry rice with most dishes which is unique and delicious. I've loved every morsel I've had so far and can't wait to go back and try more! They also have an impressive cocktail menu.“

“Always such a wonderful experience! Great food and atmosphere, and they have comedy night which is so much fun!“

“I planned a delightful surprise for my wife's birthday weekend by making reservations at this incredible spot! Considering her gluten intolerance and her love for sushi, it was the perfect choice—plus, it was just a short stroll from our hotel. The menu was not only extensive but bursting with flavor, offering something for every palate. The atmosphere was vibrant and inviting, truly enhancing our dining experience. Overall, we had an amazing time with top-notch service that made the evening unforgettable!“

“This was a very nice surprise. Elegant decor and intimate environment. Very large selection of tea, sold by the cup or pot. Nice interesting selection of cocktails. Our server, a lovely young blond woman was so very helpful and kind, offered great suggestions when we placed our order. We ordered several small dishes to share rather than ordering entrees and the food came out at just the right time and was really very excellent and unique flavors. I would like to come back and do the tea pairing some day. Lots of options for different dietary restrictions. I would suggest making reservations, while we did walk in we were able to snag the last at least but there was still bar seating available. We came about 3pm on a Saturday. Parking is non-existent so plan to scout out a spot nearby in the public parking lot.

Dietary restrictions: Lots of options for vegan, vegetarian and GF.

Parking: There is a parking lot across the street.“

“This is my second time coming to Mugen Noodle Bar and my experience hasn’t changed. Absolutely LOVE the theme of a ramen bar, the owner is incredibly nice and helpful, plus they just introduced sushi to their menu! (Saturdays only from what I believe.) My BF and I got the curry and shoyu ramen.

I absolutely love it here. I’ll definitely be making this a regular spot to revisit.“
