We'd made outdoor reservations but it POURED rain, so the staff found us seating at the bar. It turned out better than we expected. Our bartender was great to talk with, knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the restaurant and the city, the food was perfect, creative, delicious, presented gorgeously. Watching the crew at work from the bar was a perk of the whole experience. Do not sleep on Chaval!

Great experience, great food! Would definitely return to try the rwst of their dishes! Highly recommended the leek soup, pate, chorizo and broccolini! Would pass only on the rusa chival salad.

This is a great neighborhood restaurant, with a menu that keeps favorites while always have seasonal and unique additions. The eggnog at Christmas time is especially lovely and their dessert chef is the best in Portland (if not all of New England)

Amazing tapas with unique and inventive cocktails! Food came out at the perfect pace and staff made the whole experience incredible! This is a must stop when in Portland!

We had dinner here and the food was solid, but it wasn’t anything special and service wasn’t the greatest. We got the deviled eggs, autumn salad, and coq au vin. Our server would disappear a lot and we ran out of the bottle water a few times. She seemed inexperienced. It took over 15 mins after we finished all our meals to give us the check and finally give us more water. Not the best experience, but maybe we just had a one off night.

A true culinary gem hiding behind an unassuming facade, and I am so happy to have found this place. The menu consists mainly of small and shareable tapas style plates with a few main courses added in, but rest assured that whichever menu item you choose, it will delight and tickle your palate. The open kitchen provides insight into how much care is being put into the execution and presentation of each dish, and the resulting complex and multi tiered flavor experiences do not disappoint. There is also a full bar along with a carefully curated cocktail menu should you care to get your buzz on. And as if all of this wasn't quite enough, the staff is nothing short of wonderful. They are passionate about food and drink, very knowledgeable in regards to the menu, and they will go out of their way to make you not only feel welcome but downright at home. I was hooked after my first visit and am looking forward to returning here often and bringing my friends.

Went with a party of 4 for New Years Eve dinner in one of the greenhouses. Awesome food, and a really unique and comfortable "outdoor" dining experience. Jessica did an amazing job servicing our table. Only 4 stars due to difficulty getting martinis made correctly, but otherwise 5 stars.
