Exquisitely healthy dishes in a spare and lovely space. Perfect for the health conscious, vegetarian and vegan. Perfect place to have breakfast after a brisk walk. They have all kinds of wondrous strange and healthful beverages. New to Portland, yet already a Portland favorite.
Because this is where Hutch and I had our first date, this place is special to me. They have very fresh and wonderful ceviche here, and several varieties to boot. Great seafood dishes. Low-lit, romantic, and fabulous.
This Chinese food is the closest I've found to the meals I had back when I visited China back in 2007. Everything is intense, uniquely flavored, and extraordinarily delicious. Wonderful waitstaff. A must if you like spicy food.
This place is all about poutine: fries with gravy and cheese curds (it's a Canadian thing, apparently) and a fried, you guessed it, duck egg on top. Decadent. Extremely attractive interior with dishware you'll wish you had in your own home.
For our vegetarian and vegan friends. Wow, this place is so damn good! Sumptuous, decadent, and utterly original.
It's not just another Thai place. Do not miss out on the quail eggs as appetizer. All the main dishes are great. For reasons I am unsure, they make the best Tom Collins (cocktail) on the planet.
Our favorite restaurant. There isn't a thing on the menu that isn't to die for! (Except if you are not a fan of shell fish.) Note that there can be a wait! But it is WORTH the wait, so get your name on the list and take a walk around the Old Port. Because these will be the best oysters you've ever had. The specials never fail to amazing. #romantic
Excellent brunch and terrific coffee. Cozy and classy. It's also just a couple of blocks from the Eastern Prom, so head over there for a stroll after your meal!
Excellent lunch spot for sandwiches and salads. Though I personally can never resist the all-day breakfast. The Shamrock omelet (with cheese and corned beef hash) is exceptional, if you like that sort of thing. A class-act diner with a great atmosphere and friendly service.
Simply one of the best restaurants in Portland. Wonderfully original Asian-leaning dishes that are difficult to describe! EVERYTHING is marvelous, but do be sure to order the soft serve ice cream for dessert. Even if you're already full. Trust me.
