   This was our best meal at this always wonderful restaurant. The prawn starter was beautiful to see and delicious. The second course, a "sopa", was so very tasty. And the pork main was melt in your mouth good. Oh, and the drinks were to of the world great. Can't wait to return for another visit!

   Really great experience, innovative menu, and accommodating staff. They were very understanding of dietary restrictions and made great substitutions when needed. Fun to watch the chef interact with customers and his team throughout the night.

   This is a wonderful restaurant with lovely food, beautifully presented. It is on the expensive side so perfect for a special occasion. My one gripe is that there isn’t a phone number on the website and the open table phone number is not in service.

   This was one of the best meals I’ve ever had in Portland. Even better than my last meal at Republica. Exceptional!

   The most exciting restaurant in Portland at the moment. Chef Juan comes up with new ways to elevate and expand classic dishes each week; as well as coming up with startling good and mind and mouth engaging new creations. Wife Sam’s baking and desserts are also not to be missed. The whole brigade is firing on all pistons.

   I enjoy Chef Juan's descriptions of what you are about to consume. He not only tells you about the food but also where they are sourced. This is a delightful part of the meal. Stella's amazing tequila sour with egg white foam was so delicious that we had three each.

   This was an amazing way to start off our trip to Portland. If given the opportunity, snag a res and enjoy whatever menu the chef and co creates for the week! We opted to sit at the chef counter, which was a great way to see the dishes finished and chat with the chef. Every dish we feasted on was artfully prepared and exquisite in taste. Though the standouts were the huitlacoche/brussels/black garlic dish, pork collar/cabbage/hominy, and the chilaquiles. The huitlacoche provided a Ratatouille moment where I was reminded of my childhood. The flavors and textures were intricate, but the bean mousse was phenomenal. It packed so much flavor, despite how airy it was. I also never realized that charred Brussels sprouts could pair so well with a Mexican inspired dish. The pork collar/cabbage dish was almost a deconstructed pozole. The amount of texture the dish lacked was insane and despite its heat, I couldn’t stop eating the sauce! The housemade chips were the perfect vessel for that dish. I don’t usually enjoy chilaquiles, but this dish blew that previous notion up. The flavors, the spice, and how well they paired together is something I’ll never forget. The desserts were both perfect, with the fromage blanc being extremely light and airy. The before from the wait staff to the kitchen/chef made this experience one for the books and I’m thankful to have had the opportunity to try this place. Love that they work with local sources for ingredients. Like I said, if able to, this place is a must try!

   The food was absolutely amazing--when we left we were all raving about it. We had the chef's tasting menu of numerous courses and they were all esthetically and culinarily superb. Our server, unfortunately, was just OK and had a bit of an attitude--definitely not as friendly and accommodating as the other service staff who assisted us. This is a small place on the South Waterfront but it is definitely worth a trip!

    Superb! We tasted one of everything on the menu, which was a great way to share for 4 people. We all loved the oysters, little flavorful bites of warm deliciousness! The wait staff was attentive and explained each dish in detail. Very nice cocktails and wines were available. The white chocolate dessert was so interesting & heavenly. Overall 5 stars! Definitely recommend!
