“Heard they had great food, and being in the mood for great food, we went to the Gresham branch. Wowza.
Their SMALL Margarita is a very healthy serving. She added mango, I added strawberry for $0.50 each. They have a lot of offerings and many are much larger.
Chunky guacamole was exactly as advertised and very tasty.
Both of us had Fajitas which were served on a sizzling platter. Probably could have shared one, but we like leftovers so that was fine; as there was a LOT of leftovers. Shared a flan dessert, which was super yummy and served with whipped cream.
Service was good and very attentive. More chips? Right away. You know how someone always asks "how's it going" just as you take a bite? Gave 'em two thumbs up at least three times. It was not quite too much attention, but close.

“The service at Arden is amazing. They really make you feel welcome and aim to give you a customized dining experience. Highlights include the beef tartar, fois gras, spaghetti, and the most tender and flavorful pork chop I've ever had...and of course the wine pairings our waiter suggested were perfection!! I visit Portland once a month for business and Arden is a must for every visit!! See you in September!! 🍷🩷“

“We celebrated my husband’s birthday here and what a treat! Our server was phenomenal and helped us make great choices for amazing food + wine pairings. The chef also accommodated my food allergies with ease. Highly recommend! We plan to return very soon.“

“This place is the Portland dream: an incredible farm-to-table dining experience in an unassuming, DIY-charming little storefront - which you can just walk into without a reservation, on most nights. Yes, the service can be a bit spacey and slow, if always well intentioned. But the food and wine are so incredibly lovely it’s worth a little patience. While you wait out The NY Times hype at L’orange, eat here! It hits a very similar, very high note!“

“My good friend Renee and I had an enchanted evening at Domaine Serene where we had the pleasure of trying their ambitious new menu which is now available to the public. The new menu has been crafted in collaboration with iconic, local Executive Chef George Morris, of Bos Taurus and Nomé notoriety, and features creative wine-inspired cuisine with a French bistro flair, and notable Pacific Northwest ingredients. We had been eagerly anticipating the new menu launch event, and it was a memorable and magical experience with every course. Our multi-course dinner was exceptional, and the world class wine pairings were curated with thoughtfulness. Some of our favorite dishes included: Amuse-Bouche // Shigoku Oysters on The Half Shell w/ Blood Orange ‘R’ Rosé Granita, & Yuzu Kosho. Beef Short Rib Bourguignon // Creamy Polenta, Root Vegetables, w/ a Red Wine Jus. For me, the culinary star of the show, and probably one of the best dishes I’ve ever had: The Steamed Foie Gras Wontons A rich, delectable creation framed with a Smoke-Forward Shoyu, and Aromatic; Miyagi Chili Oil, Hints of Mint From the Shiso, and the citrus notes from the lime accentuated the strengths of the dish with a delicate balance. With their exciting new menu, and added team members, now is a great time to go experience the serendipity of Domaine Serene for yourself.“

“Stopped by on a whim to make sure I tried some Oregon wines while I was visiting Portland. I had a wonderful time and tried some delicious wines. Met the owners who were as nice as could be. I ordered a flight of three wines and also ordered the olives. the wines were very good, and the olives were so good I had to ask what kinds they were. Seems like a great place to enjoy some wine and food. I wish I could've stayed longer and gone back another time. They also have a bottle shop attached so if you find one you really like you can take it home with you.“

“We stopped in for a quick tasting. This place has a variety of wines to choose from and taste. The service was great and we enjoyed learning more about the particular wines, etc. The hummus snack was the right complement to the wine flights we had.
If you’re in the area and looking for a sip or to kill some time, def stop in!“

“Saw an ad on Instagram about this spot and boy am I so glad I saw it! This place is so beautifully decorated and immediately sets a fun, polished, welcomIng vibe. I'm a big fan of flights so was very happpy to see that at the forefront of this menu. We went for the bubbles flight - everything was delicious and I had never had a sparkling red! For the food we tried the fondue (delish), deviled eggs, and tuna tartare (definitely the star). Service was amazing as well of course can't wait to come back and also can't believe I had never explored this area before!“
“Came here to celebrate my friends recent promotion. Place is very cozy and eclectic in a great way. Lovely wine selection, plenty of options without being overwhelming. Champagne list was great and reasonably priced. Staff was lovely. Very friendly and welcoming.Kept our champagne chilled for us and made sure our glasses were never empty. Will definitely be back!“

“So, I went to this place called Forte Portland just to check it out. I ended up getting a coffee, but it was completely silent in there. Not a single person was around, which was kind of relaxing, I guess. There's a piano there, but no one was playing it. And get this, the person working the counter was practically asleep when I walked up. I'm guessing it's not exactly a popular place during the day. Maybe it turns into a nice bar or something later at night.“

“Honestly was the best steak house I’ve been to… I liked how the waiter explained the whole process to the table, gave great recommendations & the chef gave us a free soup sample. All the food was 5/5 stars. Best steak & pork chop hands down.“

“Delicious wine and tapas and specials. They serve sangria too. One of our favorite spots in Portland. Definitely check out this place if you haven’t because you won’t be disappointed.“
“From the outside, you approach a rather non-descript older building somewhere between Slabtown and the Pearl. However, the moment you step through the metal-framed glass front door, you are transported somewhere else. Moreover, what you come to realize as you gaze at the eclectic collection of memorabilia throughout is that there is a story waiting to be told.
However, before you can get to the “back” story, cozy up to the bar and introduce yourself to Chris. He is the laid-back host, sommelier, front man, musician, producer, tour guide, curator, deli chef, etc… He’ll tell you about the French wines they are pouring this week. Perhaps a French Rose or Chardonnay is what you’re looking for, but for me, and always, it’s the French red. Tonight, we had a bottle of the 2016 Bordeaux, with a simple but delicious charcuterie board. Yes, Chris did the corking, decanting, and charcuterie carving!
There are so many things right about this wine bar and the vibe here that you simply must visit. It’s hip, chill, cool, old school charm, and before you take your first sip of wine, you are already in love! The signs hanging on the walls appear to be from a bygone era. Maybe they reference the building’s history? I’m quite sure Chris would be happy to answer your questions. He’s an excellent conversationalist, and is one of the main reasons this place is so unique and absolutely worth you’re your time to explore.
I won’t get into the “back” story about this place, but it’s fascinating, and if you are one of the lucky patrons, you might just get a guided tour by the above-mentioned curator, Chris.
I have attached a few pictures from our recent tour for your consideration. Cheers!“

All you need to do is come here. While I was in town visiting I stopped by this place and it was so amazing that I came by the next night. An amazing vibe with a great selection of delicious wine“
“There is a nice selection of tasty wines that will not break the bank, and the wine club is off the hook! The tasting room is bright and welcoming, as is the tasting room team. It’s worth the trip any Friday, Saturday or Sunday.“

“Probably the best pizza in Oregon. I’ve had pizza scholls and this place is just as good or better. It’s also more reliable as far as actually being open. I like pizza scholls but it’s a nightmare to try and plan any pizza or if it’s even open on that day. This a great reliable pizza place that is right up there or better. The parking is a bit terrible cause it closer to inner city and new seasons doesn’t allow outside parking. The full pizzas are smaller so two hungry can share an entire pizza or maybe one really hungry. I will be back I haven’t tried the folded pizza yet.“

“I've been coming to this restaurant for the past three years with my boyfriend. Last night we re created our first date, with my mother in law and two of our closest friends. After receiving our drinks, we exchanged a small gift, then I proposed. All of the staff came to congratulate us. One staff member gifted us a pair of shot glasses from lavka. The food was incredible, the drinks were amazing. I cant thank the staff enough for helping us to make this day so memorable. Thank you all! Спасибо !!!!“

“Gawd…Aren’t we spoiled in Portland? Another gem discovered.
This is a meal I will remember for its simple perfection.
Haricot verts served cool with mint, almonds, pickled cherries tossed lightly in chèvre based ‘dressing’. Carrots roasted to perfection with balanced heat and sweetness served over a cloud of whipped chèvre. A meltingly tender boef steak. My idea of a perfect meal. Cocktails were delicious. A memorable sparkling rosé.
Service was impeccable. The ambience, warm, charming and romantic.“

“The burger was tasty but the bun wasn’t toasted so it got kinda mushy, but the buffalo cauliflower and the Parmesan fries were both AMAZING and more than made up for it. The wine selection was diverse and affordable and the atmosphere was lively without being too loud. Will definitely be coming back!“

“My wife and I come here for special occasions and last night we celebrated her birthday! As always, the service was excellent, food was impeccable, atmosphere was cozy, and a very enjoyable experience. It is a small place which only adds to the intimacy of service and atmosphere. The owner is a great guy who is very knowledgeable in all his dishes and wines which were incredible as well! We love C'est Si Bon and will continue to come here everytime we want to celebrate something at a special place!“

“Their newer digs in the SE warehouse district are tougher to spot than their pre-covid NW ones, but the hunt is worth it. Look closely for an unassuming sign above the door. Their charcuterie and mussels are as good as ever, and the gazpacho, even better. The new space is divided: One part larger, more airy; the bar part darker and more intimate. Take your pick. The service isn't stuffy but very attuned to the menu and diners. We had a great experience. OP earned its recent rave review in the Oregonian's 2025 Best Restaurants.“

“Can't wait to go back! Inventive tasty food, sorry no pics. There were 3 of us, ordered 5 share dishes plus dessert. It was a little much (even with one teenager), we could easily have gone for 4, if not 3, as plates got a little heartier as you went down the menu. (But will not be passing on creme Brule thank you) Had to try as much as we could though and was not disappointed! Updated from previous review on 2025-08-30“
