Nostrana

What a pleasant surprise to rediscover this fine establishment. A friend of mine took me tonight as a housewarming gift. We both looked at one another and said "it's been awhile since we've been here." What a lovely evening we had. We started off with sweet onion soup and then progressed to our entre of Pacific Northwest trout. Then we finished with a coffee infused gelato and a flourless chocolate cake. My Timberline vodka martini was absolutely delicious. Oh and I can't forget to mention our server Lauren she was quite fabulous. Not to present but yet very attentive. Do yourself a favor and rediscover this incredible establishment, I can guarantee you won't be disappointed.

Wonderful date night experience! The service, food, and ambiance were all out of this world, especially the 3 berry tart for dessert. Molly took great care of us, and was able to make some poignant menu suggestions. Let's just say there were some very clean plates left over. We'll definitely be back with friends and loved ones, what a beautiful space. Perhaps if you don't want to pay for the extra service to wait on your needs, you might try one of Portland's fine abundant food trucks!

Gotta sit outside! The secret garden. Servers were timing experts. Mind readers! And overall experience guides. All the food we ordered was delicious. We chose several small bites and shared tapas style. Also, patio is dog friendly. Alfredo enjoyed sitting in his little portable house next to me on the bench. He also approved everything we ordered. I think he might have been a bit resentful that he could not have any cocktails. Lol. We had a few and they were lovely. Try the chilled red wine! Yeah. And pre order a cobbler!!! That’s fresh! A lovely dining experience here. Bravo. Salute! My goal now is to recreate their flooffy flavorful focaccia at home. I can see myself going nightly for floofy focaccia and chilled red wine, every night during summer. ❤️❤️

We didn't have reservations and they told us it would be a 2 hour wait. They have a parking lot but the parking could be very difficult at times. We left our mobile number and within 10 minutes they called and told us that our table was ready. The waiter's recommendations was spot on, The food was really delicious but to me the proton were to small for the price point.

Went to this award winning place on a weekday night for dinner. Read all about this restaurant before dining and was (almost) not disappointed. The pizza was great, we ordered spicy shrimp pasta (which was barely spicy) and the bread as antipasti… I was not quite happy with the bread hut the pizza and pasta were good. Nice wine list and the sommelier helped us pick one as per our liking. The cocktails were a fresh start. Food - 4.5/5 Ambience - 5/5 Coat for one person - ~ $90 Reservation preferred

Beautiful location, not what you would expect from the outside! The bar area is huge and the staff are so so knowledgeable in drink making, always up to make you something special. I wasn’t sure which wine to get as I’m not a big drinker, but our server gave us tasters of a few so we ordered the one we liked best. For dinner I got the Mary’s chicken (which is enough to serve 2) which came with veggies and mashed potatoes. Took the leftovers home and actually ate them the next day. Worth the money for sure, given that it’s a little pricey. Great for a date night, celebration, or just a girls night!
