This is hands down THE BEST FOOD I have had in Portland, OR. It's a little known hole in the wall with a very cozy, quirky atmosphere, eclectic menu and funny, friendly staff: a husband and wife team.
Their menu consists of breakfast, lunch and dinner. American Pho', Sustainable Earth Salads, BBQ and Sandwiches. The Rosemary Potato Cakes are delightfully flavorful and the Black and Blue is the ...

If you are looking for really ridiculously good German food for really ridiculously cheap prices then Gustav's Happy Hour is the way to go!
Gustav's also has excellent ambiance and stellar service!
I am addicted to their Swiss Cheese Fondue (only $3.99) and there is none that can rival their Happy Shepherd's Pie ($3.99 as well).
They have five convenient locations: Clackamas, PDX Airport, Portland, Vancouver and Washington Square.
Hours:
11 ...

La Calaca Comelona or The Hungry Skeleton in English is by far the only authentic Mexican restaurant I've been to in Portland, OR.
Their food and beverages are nothing short of exceptional. I chose the Torta Asada and a Tropicana. They were both packed with flavor and very generous portion wise. Whether you decide to sit inside or out, the atmosphere is spacious and decorative.
They are open ...

Normally, when I tell people that I live in Garden Home, they try to console me, and it always makes me laugh. Those who don't know about The Old Market Pub & Brewery in Portland, Oregon (6959 SW Multnomah Blvd) don't understand that sometimes it's great to live in the 'burbs! I drive by OMPB every day on my way home and finally stopped ...

If you happen to be in the Lake Oswego area check out Riccardo's. They have one of the best wine selections in the area and the food is really quite good. I usually get the fish special or the pollo alla cacciatora but most of the selections are very tasty.
If it's nice out try and get seated on the lovely, Tuscan style patio out back and make sure you aren't ...

Just listening to drunken Brits singing folk songs at this Hollywood District Pub is enough entertainment for the evening. (Ok, not all the Brits are singing but most of them are drunk). Make sure you have a plate of fish and chips, bangers and mash, or fish cakes because the pints here are gigantic imperial pints (20 ounces) and just two can send you reeling off the bar stools.
The ...

2112 NW Kearney St. Portland, OR 97210
A great place to take someone special and perfect for larger groups. This sophisticated yet rustic trattoria offers various well drinks, wines and fresh dishes, such as cauliflower soup with pancetta and truffle oil and crunchy white beans with tuna, red onion, spinach and oregano. (which was by far the most excellent dish). A scone was split and stuffed with a vanilla custard like whip ...

2100 SE Clinton St. Portland, Or Phone:503-7316-500
I literally stumbled upon this fantastic little bar last night in SE Portland! The main room with the bar was lit about like a night-light illuminates a room and as you walk further back it's nearly like a cave with some scattered candles and couches. Board games are stacked in the corner and on Sundays you can enter a spelling bee or trivia contest ...

BBQ food: $35
wine: $5
charcoal: $5
playing Kings in the park with penis cards: priceless
On Friday night, my friends put a birthday tiara on me and took me all about town for some mayhem. We started out at Wallace Park in NW Portland with a BBQ (we are so classy that we carried our BBQ to the park) and then kinda-sorta joined another birthday group (because ...

Step aside Old Spaghetti Factory and Olive Garden, hello Pastini Pastaria! A friend of mine is addicted to this place. He took me and another friend out to dinner a few evenings ago and now we crave their food as well. Not only is the food phenomenal, but the prices are ridiculously wallet friendly. Whether you are a carnivore, a vegetarian, or a seafood ...
