Nice diversity in the menu. Good wine selection. It wasn't packed when I was there so it didn't take a long time for the food to come to the table. The octopus was quite good. The dessert just okay. I may go back to try a different plate

Great modern chef-driven restaurant with a changing menu that really cares about the food and service they provide.
I had the vegetarian tasting menu, slow roasted goose entree and finished with a white chocolate granite dessert. The bread service included a bagna cauda which was surprising to see in a good way. I also had a Ned Flanders cocktail as well as a glass of Domaine Eugene Carrel Mondeuse to go with my goose.
All of the dishes I ate were executed professionally and the components of each dish worked well together. Nothing was overly seasoned or under seasoned - there was a nice balance to each dish.
The service was very attentive, professional, friendly and welcoming. Water was always kept full and they changed the silverware accordingly. Little things just added up to make the overall dining experience very pleasant.
Aviary deserves a lot more recognition than they get, the chef and cooks here work very hard to create high quality dishes and drinks at a price that is accessible to most - my custom 6 course meal was just $64 excluding drinks and tip.
With that said, I highly recommend dining here!
Lovely place. I was first here during Portland dining month. We each ordered a drink which were both great. The food was splendid. The atmosphere very nice and the servers very friendly. We each had something different and we were able to try everything off of the dining menu. They all did not disappoint. Shrimp toast is a must.
Amazing food & Beautiful presentation! Wonderful balance of flavor. Their Happy Hour is one of our favorites. The burger is one of the best I have had and the tempura green beans are almost addictive.
Came for Portland Dining Month. Two options for each course so the hubby and I got all items and split them. Overall it was quite good, but nothing mind blowing. Highlights were the chestnut soup, skate wing and both desserts. I couldn't eat the gravlax... it was just weird. Our waitress was lovely, water glasses always kept full, and food all arrived at a good pace. I'll def come back for Happy Hour.
Delicious creations, great vegetarian options, wonderful presentation, cozy atmosphere. Aviary was a wonderful place which I highly recommend for foodies, adventurous eaters, and those who are not. Definitely a place I would recommend to anyone looking for a nice meal or date night.
My boyfriend and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary with a dinner here and we were thoroughly impressed. Def recommend! Staff was incredibly nice and knowledgeable. They even have us a free glass of sparkling wine to help us celebrate. Very sweet. We will definitely be back. Oh and for the love of God you must get the foie gras hum bao.
We had very good experience here. Service was great, and food was so delicious. I will definitely come back. Try eggplant, I am not a fan of eggplant, but they made it unique and yammy way.
