Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Northwest Portland

Not our first visit here and won't be our last. L'Orange combines great dishes (onion soup is back for the winter!) and wine pairings, low key but attentive service, and a cozy atmosphere. The mussels and clams were served in a Zatarains spiced broth for a kick and the L'orange cake is bright and comforting and crunchy sweet with caramelized sugar at the edges. The three separate dining areas keep noise at a level that facilitates conversation, such a rare and nostalgic idea: Other restaurants can keep their noisy, spare dining areas with music that muscles out any attempts at conversation, we are delighted to have L'Orange as a dining option.

Have to try the gnocchi. Cod was perfect and the Arden lemonade cocktail stood out. Very distinct and creative flavors to every dish. Loved Arden!

The food, cocktails, and service was all excellent!!! We enjoyed the beautiful atmosphere, comfortable seating, and have to say our server was really awesome. What a nice surprise on Christmas!!!

A wonderful atmosphere. Complex flavors and tailoring to dietary needs made for a delicious meal. Our waiter was the best!! A great experience. We will definitely be back.

We went the day before Christmas Eve and it was the most amazing and memorable experience of a lifetime! We had just found out that my FIL has a very aggressive form of cancer and this was a memory none of us will ever forget. The six of us ordered about 9 HH apps and two entrees and everything was a 10/10! The food was the out of this world, our server was the most attentive we’d ever had, and the ambiance was quiet, exciting, and amazing the entire time. I highly recommend this tapas-style culinary experience of a lifetime!
