Where is the Best Dessert in Portland, Oregon?
however, I never had a problem other than to wait between courses when the restaturant was at its busiest at 8:00 PM. The crab cakes were stuffed and scrumptous; try the heirloom tomatoes too! Most recently, I had the cast iron chicken that was cooked to perfection; earlier the black cod that reminded me of Hawaiian butterfish cooked with miso. And yes, the decor is comtemporary and beyond nice with flowers and eye catching arrangement as you enter the dining room. I’m going to Fife again and you will do well to give it a try.
I have been here a few times and the food is absolutely good and has always been good!. Everything we had a few days ago was well prepared and of superb quality from the garlic bread to the sauteed spinach to everyones steaks! Nothing frou-frou, and certainly nothing super creative but just good food! The Bananas Foster were a great way to end a very satisfying meal.The service was attentive without being overbearing. The only negative was the faint smell of cigar/cigarette?? smoke which everyone at our table commented on that evening.I will go back in a heartbeat for one of the best steaks in Portland.Pros + FoodCons – Smell of smoke!
The first thing i must say is: you CANNOT come here expecting good service. You will sometimes get good service here, and some of the servers here are actually quite nice, but sometimes i have gotten the worst service in my LIFE here. Despite that being said, i will still come back on occasion. Why? The deserts are awesome and unique, the Nutella Banana Crepe and Bernadette’s Brownie Boat being exceptional examples. This place has super quirky awesome weirdo bohemian ambiance, think mismatched tiny chairs and tables, bizarre kitschy outsider art, and a staircase shrine. Its set in a lovely old converted Victorian house that has been painted all sorts of crazy colors on the outside. During the warmer months they have lovely outdoor seating in a back yard encircled and hidden from the street by bamboo plants and the sound of a trickling fountain. They have an excellent variety of drinks both alcoholic and non. The only other negative thing (other than the service) is that i hav
We’ve been coming here a couple of times each week since we moved to Portland and read about their soups and salad bar in an Oregonian review. They have one of the few salad bars in town and they make everything fresh, including their own unique dressings (they have Garlic Asiago instead of everyone else’s blue cheese, an Apple Dijon Vinaigrette and a wonderful oil-free Cucumber Ginger VInaigrette unlike any other dressing I have ever had, plus several others). The Salad Bar is all-you-can-eat, but the soups are served by the cup or bowl, and although many people come here for the sour cream rich Hungarian Mushroom Soup, they always have several vegan, gluten-free soups, the most amazing being the Coconut Cauliflower Curry.If you want “fast” food, you don’t even have to wait for your server to take your order–just head for the soup and salad bar, which includes house-made corn muffins, multi-grain rolls, croutons & crackers and even rice cakes for people who can’t eat gluten (or
Found this restaurant on Trip Advisor and boy am I glad I did. The nicest waitstaff, very knowledgable. Yes, it is a small menu but good and carefully considered(want a big menu – go to Applebee’s) and it does lean on meat more. The waitress told us that the chef had been a butcher and knew how to get the…
