Mucca Osteria

Unique restaurant. If you’re trying to find this place, note that their sign outside says, “Mucco Osteria Pizzeria.” We didn’t get it why that was but we figured it out. The seating is downstairs and upstairs. There is a 4 course and a 6 course meal option. The 4 course was $95 a person where the 6 course was higher but not known. It couldn’t be more than $45. The food was great! The only problem we had was with the scallops. They were undercooked and cold. The beef tartar was excellent. Other noteworthy meal item was the steak. Great! Check out the photos of the food we had. I don’t have the menu with me so I don’t know the menu item names but I do know the food was amazing. You won’t go wrong on any of your choices. Do try this place! It worth the price and it’s rated the #1 fine dining restaurant for a good reason!

Updates: Coming in since their renovations has been such a treat! Delicious new menu items & the space is gorgeous! ——— We absolutely LOVE Mucca. First class service, the best dining in Portland, quaint sweet location. Everything on the menu here is outstanding and prepared fresh right in front of you - especially if you’re lucky enough to book far ahead of time and request a spot sitting at the chefs table. They also have a full tasting menu. And an excellent wine menu. Would HIGHLY recommend the tortellini, the scallops, the steak and pork shoulder. They are open for dinner only. Highly recommend making a reservation!!

Dinner with my partner, had a nice intimate setting for couples. We opted to get the 6 course menu which included an appetizer, 4 entrees, and dessert ($100 ea). The portions are reasonably sized for a taste menu and everything came out at a nice pace. We also chose to do the wine pairing ($80 ea), it was 2 oz pours (3 white, 2 red, and 1 dessert). I would recommend if you are not a wine enthusiast to do cocktails instead. Our server was very polite and knowledgeable, he mentioned the menus rotates every 1-2 weeks. The scallops and the single noodle pasta were personal favorites of ours.

My husband and I made reservations for the tasting menu and opted in for the wine pairing. The staff was so welcoming and kind. They treated us like royalty. The restaurant felt very intimate and romantic to me. The food. Oh. My. God. The food. Even bite was the perfect bite. From the oysters to the peach tart and everything in between. Legitimately, one of the best meals and dining experiences that I have ever had.

I would love to give 10 if I can. They were so kind, helpful, and flexible when we called the restaurant for booking. The welcome bread was amazing, all menus were decadent, the paired wine they recommended was just perfectly matched with foods. The server was so kind and they splited all dishes in half and served in two dishes for us to share. The restaurant was lil bit dark but I loved the vibe there. I wish they keep running their business for a long time so that I can visit whenever I go to Portland.

My wife and I went to Mucca for our anniversary last night. We both got the prix fixe and split a nice bottle of wine. The good: The service was immaculate and the ambiance was charming. Both our waiter and the somm were extremely friendly and helpful. The pasta course and the main were absolutely fantastic. We were commenting on how we haven’t had pasta this good since Italy; it was a perfect al dente. The dessert course was also delicious as well. The not so good: For a $100 prix fixe menu, we expected slightly larger portions or more courses. We left hungry. The first two courses (raw oyster and then tuna tartare) really weren’t for us, but maybe that’s just a personal problem. And the scallop course had a sweet relish that was a little overpowering, but the scallops were cooked perfectly and the parm fondue was spectacular.
