“I have dined at Decarli for years, and it has started to slip. This was the first time I had eaten at the new location (the former buffet), and atmosphere took a big hit. Food is different. I had Chitarra and the pancetta was decent, but not as tender or as delicious as before. There was no bread served. And the feel was one of get in, get out. The staff was fine, it was just disengaged. The worst thing was the Resy app to reserve a seat. It is detestable. It is bad enough that if I am required to use it, I will not eat at the restaurant. I do not need a reminder text an hour before the appointment. It is dreadful, and commodities customers.“
“My wife and I stopped by for a quick and unplanned "date nite." When we arrived at 6:30 pm on Saturday we saw no one in the dining room (hmmm), but we decided to dive in. The place is quaint and a bit of a "hole in the wall" as it is in a strip mall. BUT, they have done a great job with the design. We were greeted promptly and placed our order at the counter. Quick payment and we were off to the table. Note: You grab your own silverware and fill you own drinks. The food came out quickly. Bread. Salad. Main course. Not a bad deal. I had a simple bowl of pasta for $10.95. My wife's order came in a just under $20. The food looked and tasted great. By the time the food arrived, five more groups came in. Overall, we liked the place, and expect to come back.“
“Hello everyone,Recently, I went to Giovanni's for the second time in my life, as the last time I was there with my family, we got takeout. This time, we dined in. I was here with my mom, a family friend, and my best friend on International Woman's Day, where we had dinner and spent quality girl time together. The atmosphere of the restaurant was really nice, as was the decore. Our server was very nice and knowledgeable on all the dishes that you can order at this restaurant. We each got a dish and a pizza for everyone to share. Everything was very delicious ?. Giovanni's is the perfect family restaurant and get together place for best friends. I will totally come back again.Sincerely, a happy customer.“
“Pretty classy Italian restaurant in central Beaverton with some innovative offerings on the menu. Honestly, I might say that it's even a bit too classy over here, though I appreciate the size of the offerings for what you pay for. Everything I've tried here is rich with flavor and you can tell it's freshly made. The braised beef pasta had a delicious wine-based flavor but it was a bit overpowering for my tastes, not sure if it's because my taste palette isn't refined enough though. Their ricotta cheesecake was also delectable but a bit too much for me. If you want a fancy experience with interesting Italian dishes on the menu, this is the place to go, though. Service is great and didn't feel snooty, our waitress was attentive and willing to answer any questions. Place is clean and well decorated.“
“My toddler has several severe and anaphylactic allergies. The manager, Jesse, answered the phone. She was so kind and knowledgeable about allergens and assured that my son could have a safe meal. There are only a handful of restaurants in town that my son can eat at and we're so grateful that we had an excellent experience at this Olive Garden. My toddler kept smiling throughout his kid's dinner spaghetti ❤️Dietary restrictions: Allergen safe“
“Went to get a bite, did not disappoint. The front room seemed a little squished, but the food was good and the workers were polite.Would recommend.Parking: Usually enough spots. Most people don't eat in, so it usually isn't that full.“
“I love this place thru & thru! If you haven't been, do yourself a favor. So chilled, with a poetic and tepid groovy vibe, this spot is hotter than lukewarm. All the puns not intended actually. It's just a well designed little place to enjoy attendant service, tiny or not so tiny dishes of luxury, and a balanced ambiance erring on the side of elegance. Come. You won't regret it.“
“Such a cute place run by the sweetest people. Perfect Portland atmosphere. They open at 5 pm and there was already a line of people at 4:45 waiting to get in. Since the menu is small (changes every week) so they can whip out orders quickly. High quality, delicious food. Indoor and outdoor seating. It was worth the 40 minute drive we took to get here!“
“Had a great meal here on Friday night, including some of the best gluten free pasta we've ever had. Service was lovely, very professional and we were treated well. Was a nice evening out. We did make a reservation, which was ready and waiting for us. I would recommend reserving a table before hand as it gets quite busy. Can't wait to go back!“
“I went with my family during Happy Hour and the food was delicious.For starters we ordered some ricotta cheese crostinis that were delicious and a "small" salad which was more than enough for 3 people.The pizza was a delight but the best thing was to accompany it with a delicious sangria.I highly recommend this place.“
“Great pizza! The crust is very tasty, New York style (or New Jersey apparently) and the cheese and sauce is fresh and delicious. It's take-out only, with a couple picnic tables in front, but the Chill-n-Fill is just across the street for more atmosphere, seating, and drink options.“
“Thanks to Yelp reviews, we decided to give this a try. I have to say this was excellent. Service was great - our server was knowledgeable without being condescending. Ambiance was also very nice, cool decor, dark and cozy. I will note that coming in there was a weird air freshener smell, not sure what they were trying to cover, but I would rather have smelled the delicious food. Speaking of food, I just can't say enough about how great our meal was. I started with a caesar salad which was excellent (except a few croutons were so hard they were rocks). My husband got the polenta cake and is still talking about it. For my main I got the creamy ravioli - I think that was the vegetarian special, hubby got another veggie pasta dish (which was also excellent.) It seemed almost everything was noted whether there was a vegetarian or vegan option, which I truly appreciated. We each had a glass of wine, and also opted for tiramisu - which was unique with chocolate covered espresso bean chunks (I think?) on top, and nice a boozy. Sure there were a few things I noted about that weren't fabulous (weird freshener smell, rock croutons) but we cannot wait to go back and bring friends.“
“We had a magical time celebrating our adult son's birthday. The service was at the next level, the food was delicious, and the space and ambiance were so comfortable. The wine list gave us some great options as well. Highly recommend this place.“
“Fillmore Trattoria is our favorite dining experience in Portland. We have eaten there for 8 years on our visits to Portland. It is truly where the locals eat. The Food is excellent and Spencer and Emma are wonderful cooks and hosts. I highly recommend eating there.“

“You took in two very weary and threadbare travelers on the 23rd, late, and without reservations. Found a corner for us and prepared a marvelous meal. It was the only calm and peace we had in a while. Thank you all for being kind and beautiful souls to us.“
“This is the new go-to lunch and dinner spot for all Portland adventurers.Amazing meal! You can taste the high quality of the ingredients and the love put into the food.The staff is extremely friendly and accommodating, and the atmosphere is perfect for anything from first dates, to family dinners, to business lunches. I cannot wait to come back. Perfect 10’s!P.S best wine selection in Portland!“
“This is one of those reliable, reasonably priced, delightful places to dine. Service was the best. Recommendations were appreciated with spot on wine pairings. The cacio pepe was delicious!! As was the rock fish & broccolini. I enjoy the mushroom bruschetta every time. It is my favorite. Aria gin Martini was perfect. All desserts were great. We tried 4. The pot de cream really shown. Only negative was the bread. Maybe stale. Or maybe just not the best. Hard with little flavor. But otherwise, wonderful!!“

“This is the 3rd time I've been to this restaurant and I continue to be impressed. It just has a good vibe and the food is great. I also like how the owner comes around to make sure his guests are happy. That's a nice touch that most restaurants don't have.“
“I used to work at one of the Geraldis in Arkansas and it was pretty spot on to what I know. Worth the 3 hr drive. I ordered the Italian sausage and they cut it into medallions instead of lengthwise. Other than that, flavor match is what I remember. Very good. I’ll need to come back and get the chicken parm sandwich and the Chicago beef.“
“My guy has been looking for a good Italian joint on our side of town for a hot minute. I walked down to the beer porch and here it is! There are tons of vegetarian options here with a choice to add meat. I just tried the sole meatball ($3) but they sell them in larger quantities for less or you can add them to your pasta dish. I fully plan to go get meatball subs here-- I didn't want to enjoy it without my partner. The staff was tickled that I ordered just a meatball and they were swift for other orders I saw placed not just my silly one. They were actually invested in my enjoyment. When it's warm out I like to go to several good carts in a day like tapas so this was neat.Vegetarian options: Vegan and vegetarian base for most dishes besides the meatball sub and an option to add meat makes this a friendly place for all to eatParking: Park around the beer porch and walk in; lots of seating options; wheelchair accessibleKid-friendliness: Lots of seating and friendly to kids and families and groups or solo adventurersWheelchair accessibility: Lots of seating and friendly to kids and families and groups or solo adventurers“
“This place is marketed as a dive online, but it's more like a casual bar and restaurant. The cocktail program and menu are incredible, really tasty and perfectly prepared. Staff is friendly and made sure I got the meatballs on my rigatoni. And I could eat and entire jar of the pickled cauliflower. I just moved into the neighborhood and I will be back often“
“This place was shockingly good with service to match. I had spaghetti with meatballs and my wife had beef stroganoff. Both were of the highest quality. Each bite made me stop and think about all of the flavors. It's not a fancy restaurant by any means and it's small, but that's not any reason not to go. There is a decent sized parking lot.“
“Louie’s is so good. Classic Italian. Everything handmade and fresh. The from the fried Ravioli to the garlic cheese focaccia. The pizza has that little bit of corn meal on the dough, sliced Italian sausage and gooey cheese. Always loved their stuff.“

“Our area needs more small businesses and especially restaurants! We wandered into Gambino's one day, and we've probably been back a half a dozen times now! It's a super cute and cozy environment, food is amazing, and service is always great! Definitely recommend trying it out, you won't be disappointed!“
“My date picked this spot for a spontaneous lunch date, and we were both so happy we came!I tried the fried Brussels sprouts, which I honestly couldn't have done better myself. They were so tasty, sinfully good even ?She tried the black truffle pasta, and the delicata fritters, and we were both totally blown away by all the food.I'm definitely coming back for more! Gotta try the eggplant parmesan next!!“
“Excellent, excellent service and lovely wine pairing with good food in a quaint and intimate atmosphere. The food was delicious but didn't leave a lasting impression. Was it bad food no not at all, but was anything special about the food...not really. It was all a little bland all in all. I would come back, but would I ever crave to do so,no.“
“My husband and I dined in the cozy lounge where we were able to choose from three menus! Chef Marco delivered our Veal and Maui Maui entrees. Both were cooked to perfection with savory sauces and vegetables. We highly recommend this place for lunch or dinner:)Parking: There is plenty of street parking within walking distance.“
“We found this wonderful restaurant via a Google search, and have zero regrets. We met the owners, incredibly lovely people working hard to produce the excellent food we absolutely devoured. The warm hospitality and conversation with the owners, the fried fish and shrimp, the welcoming atmosphere.. you HAVE to go and enjoy this *almost* hidden gem. We’ll be back with more people for soul food Sunday! Thank you, Marcus and Angelette, for an incredible meal!“
“We used to live in PDX and still go back occasionally. When we do, Cafe Mingo, after all these years, remains a dining destination. In a foody city, it is consistently good, lively and friendly. It's a nice mix of "old Portland" with a younger neighborhood clientele and predictably good food. It's the ultimate "comfort food" place.“
“Staff is super friendly and helpful during the ordering process. They are also super sweet and charming! I was having a rough day and this coffee helped me through the day. He even said if I didn't like it I could change it since it was a slow day. Such a sweet individual.Dietary restrictions: I am a vegan and they had many choices to pick for and helpful suggestions!“
“Bar Rione is a lovely wine bar next door to Piazza Italia, an authentic Italian, tasty, affordable food with classic Italian service and beautiful wine selection. Friendly, clean, and happy environment for great food. Annually, the put on a Truffle Dinner with a guest chef from Italy who brings black truffles for the meal. Special event with special people.“
“My wife and I were in the area after dropping the kids off at the airport, and we googled nearby resturants. Lucky for us Caro Amica came up. It had good reviews so we gave it a try.The atmosphere is very nice but casual. The service here was friendly and very professional. Our waitress, Celina did a wonderful job.The food there is delicious. We started off with the prawns in a white wine and garlic sauce and some toasted garlic bread. There was plenty for both of us, I soaked up every drop of the sauce with the bread. My wife had the cheese ravioli in a marinara sauce and loved it. I then had the Angel hair pasta with pesto and sausage. The cream sauce with the sausage and pesto was really, really good. The portions were very generous but the food was so good we didn't have any left over to take home.One of the best meals I've had in months.Can't wait to come back.“
“We LOVE Fino Bistro. Great for groups, dates, or to grab something quick. Love their cocktails, wine selection, and gluten-free options. Our only complaint is the jazz that plays in the dining area - it's loud and sometimes feels obnoxious.“
“I feel like I’m at home when I come to Justa! I usually order the kale salad. Today it felt so cold out I ordered the bucatini was prawns and Manila clams. Loved it so much. It was perfect with a glass of Prosecco. Can’t wait to come back again. Cheers!!!“
“It was a perfect day and a perfect lunch, celebrating a special birthday. Food, as always, delicious, and perfectly paired with our wine. Carson was the most attentive and professional server and added to our enjoyment! We will come to Riccardo's again and again.“
“Most amazing staff and ownership, if you've not been the Mason, you should be, I miss it when I can't get there and I'm happy as hell when I can.Lawson took amazing care of us along with the rest of the staff and cannot wait to go back for my next meal.“
“It was a wonderful dining experience. We came in a bit before closing and were served in a very Italian way. There was no rush, no haste, the staff was talkative and friendly. The food was delicious and authentic. This is a small family owned restaurant making you feel like you could be in some small town in Italy. This is definitely going to be a regular spot for me.“
“First time to Oregon and Momma Mia’s. Stopped in looking for a good dinner spot. I wasn’t super hungry because of the time change and i was traveling and not wanting leftovers. They accommodated me with a side of pasta. It was the perfect size and great quality! Highly recommend this place!“
“this food was some of the best food I’ve ever eaten in my life. The San Marzano tomato soup was the best I’ve ever had and I couldn’t get enough. Everything we got was amazing and the service was great they checked up on us and made sure everything was perfect. Zach was doing an amazing job juggling bartending and being the server. I enjoyed the atmosphere and the food here more than anywhere I’ve been.“
“My son's whole soccer team came to the location on Barber and Justin was working by himself but did an incredible job serving all of us quickly and with a smile! I hope the managers see this Justin is great.Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly environment“
“First time leaving a public review for anywhere, but Amico Chef is worth this review!2022-2023 I ordered pasta from this place 44 times! BEST PASTA I’VE EVER HAD and I can’t get sick of it! My go to is the Shrimp Pesto Linguine add artichoke hearts. The ingredients are so fresh and enormous portions! I could never make it to this caliber at home! The garlic bread is somehow always perfect and mighty tasty! If you like pasta please visit Amico Chef it will not disappoint!2024 I’ve already ordered 7 times!“
“Have been patronizing Grassa for many years, and although they have somewhat recently changed the menu, I can say that the fresh ingredients and revamped menu items still hold the same Grassa flavor.Vegetarian options: Quite a few vegetarian options! They can also adjust some dishes to vegan options as well!Dietary restrictions: They can adjust some dishes to be gluten-free, dairy free, and even vegan.“
“This was my second time dining here. We enjoyed the food and cocktails . I did end up having to send my meat dish bAck as it was undercooked Pork. The server made that easy but it took along time for the second dish to come back out. Nice place and it is Pricey.“
“When I crave pizza, this is my go-to place! Great crust, generous amounts of quality toppings - the Italian sausage is real! Then that cheese pull! Seriously, the perfect pizza. They allow you to customize your pizza, as well as to make it half and half. Add the garlic and herbs. The pizza was ready and hot upon pick up.“
“My family and I have eaten here for years, been up and down the sizable menu, and the food is always exceptional, my favorite in the Portland/Vancouver area by far.The red sauces are hearty, tart and sweet. The whites are delicate and complex.My favorites are the picattas and the Linguini con Gamberi, large shrimp sautéed in a perfectly balanced white sauce. Olive, garlic, butter, lemon, parsley--you taste them all. Wonderful!“
“What a hidden gem. Ate here about a year ago and kept meaning to come back. The food quality for the price point is crazy. The pasta b was so fresh and creamy. The ice cream was the same. Service matched. So hard to find good service let alone great.“
“My partner and I have been fans of Pastini but had not eaten at the Bridgeport location. There was a nearly hour wait to get seated on a Saturday night, but boy was it worth it. We got excellent service from Ina, who was friendly, willing to answer any questions, and prompt in delivering our food. Prices here are excellent for the value of the food you get. Their pesto is some of the freshest I've ever had, and I fell in love with the meat sauce pasta that my boyfriend ordered. Even better was the soup of the day, which was a bacon corn chowder, that I'll definitely be craving for a long time. For dessert, they have a few good options that they typically offer at Italian restaurants, and we'd highly recommend their gelato. The restaurant was nice and clean, simple but comforting yet classy. Excellent experience here and we plan to return for sure (we just hope the chowder will be there when we do).“
“Went here to try their gluten-free crust and trying to find the best in the city. I saw this pizza place on my gluten-free app, because they said that the crust was thicker than regular gluten-free crust which really isn’t not the case. It’s cracker but just a little bit thicker of a cracker. The stand out here is definitely the toppings. They’re very generous and they’re very fresh. is it the best gluten-free pizza in the city? I’m not sure but I’m still exploring.Vegetarian options: Gluten free“
“Outstanding food, service, ambiance, everything. The food was consistently refined but unpretentious, and every bite was balanced and sooo yummy. The service was a level of fine dining that we don't otherwise get in Beaverton, but still totally relaxed. It's a set menu, six courses the night we were there (maybe always?), each one delivered by Don with an explanation and background. Tiny space, make a reservation.“
