Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Jose Camarena

From the OpenTable editors: República has been a critical darling since it opened in 2020, garnering raves from Bon Appétit, Eater Portland, and more. Sit in the sleek and intimate dining room to dine on chef Jose Camarena’s ambitious, Mexican-forward dishes—think seared, tobiko-topped scallops in a foie-infused masa “cone”—accompanied by personal anecdotes and historical details about dishes from attentive servers. An excellent Mexican-leaning drinks program rounds out the singular experience.

    I had been looking forward to dining at Republica for a long time & was unfortunately very disappointed. Dishes were uninspired & surprisingly lacked flavour. Peak of disappointment was the squab. Not something I would choose to eat & ruined a good mole sauce. The quality of the cooking did not justify the price. I hope we went on an off day for the chef & it is normally better.

    The food was out of control great, deeply rooted in Mexican traditions, but showing the chef's playful hand. The staff are very conscientious and took great care of us. My only complaint: the dining room was a touch loud to have easy conversation. 5 stars, will go again.

    It has been 2-3 years since we last ate at Republica, which was at their former location. I’m sorry to say our latest experience didn’t live up to our previous visits. There was only one really “wow” dish (the Uni), and the portions were absurdly small given the prices. We also found it very difficult to hear the wait staff’s explanations of the food - some of them were soft speakers, plus the restaurant was moderately loud and the kitchen staff loudly yell the Mexican equivalent of “heard” whenever the chef issues commands.
