Where is the Best Dessert in Portland, Oregon?
If you’ve just moved to Portland, Rimsky-Korsakoffee is a “must do.” No, not for the service (it’s terrible.) Nor particularly anything else. Because, although the desserts are excellent, and the ambience is unique, the real reason you have to go is so that you can become a genuine Portlander.After all, at what other coffee shop, can one ask for an ice cream sundae and be told:”I have no idea what you’re talking about.” (Said by the waiter while peering down haughtily at us.)”Um, this ice cream sundae here, on your menu.” (Said we, while pointing at the menu.)”We don’t make ice cream sundea’s.”Perplexed, we looked at each other, then back at the menu’s.”Um, ok, what kind of ice cream do you have?”At that point, the waiter (again, haughtily) stated the various choices (which did include ice cream sundea’s.)So with that, we had been RIMSKIED.So, go ahead, try Rimsky’s and you too will have a story to tell your friends.Good service can be gotten anywhere, Rimsky
We have had a great experience with PIX. Everything is awesome! We did have one bad experience at xmas we ordered the coffee log cake. It was not their usual quality and the flavor was off. This was not typical.. so we called. The immediately gave us a gift card and invited us back! We have yet to use that but are anxious to get back in there… You really can’t go wrong with any dessert from this place. The homemade ice cream is also fantastic!Pros + delicious, friendly staff, unique dessertsCons – busy, loud, not very many seats
