Tried this Italian restaurant despite mixed, albeit high, reviews. As a critical consumer of Italian food , I was impressed by their home-made pasta , Alfredo sauce , bread , salads , coffee & desserts !!
Coupon for a FREE Happy Hour appetizer in the 2014 Happy Hour Guidebook! Also a coupon for a FREE brunch ! A total FAVORITE! Always on my Top Ten list.
This place is absolutely delicious. The pasta is homemade and amazing. The service is wonderful and the chef even invited us into the kitchen. Go here if you are in Portland.
In spite of what the hater Isaac said, EAT HERE! Delish garlic bread , mozzarella , and lasagna . Tasty drinks. Sunday Happy Hour is a good deal ! My bride and I had a great dinner for $26 w/drinks. Yumm.
Caprese Burger was fantastic, as were the Frittes Italiano (Italian Fries ). Service, however, was incredibly slow. A quick lunch with coworkers stretched to an hour and 20 min waiting for food, check.
Happy hour ! One of the best places if you're hungry on the cheap ! #delicioso
The fried mozzarella was delish. I also had the putanessca with homemade Italian sausage , which was good too.
My lord, the pear , balsamic vinegar , and goat cheese pizza . It's heaven!
Every bite was delicious. Service was incredibly prompt and friendly . Truly amazing fresh mozzarella . The panna cotta is also wonderful.
Usually a great place, but was denied wine because my ID is peeling at the corner. Sort of hit or miss with out-of-state IDs.
Hard to find prkg but the food is so worth it! Excellent!
Sunday gravy is AMAZING. The new brunch is great too!
1st visit, Adam provide great recommendations & service. Excellent veal marsala .
Our pasta was a little too salty. We declined to hv it recooked so the boss gave us a free dessert of our choice!
Solid Italian comfort food . Can't go wrong with the lasagna .
The Eggplant Parm was out of this world!!! Service was spot on!!
Delightful!
Awesome food! Beware of the added side salads ... Nothing special _at all_ and cost $8 - would be better if they warned you of the price.
The penne broccoli was bland, too oily, had no other flavor and the garlic in my dish was burnt. I added chicken breast which did not enhance the dish. It came cut in pieces, was dry and overcooked.
The ambiance is most excellent.
The Cheesecake was amazing
Great Spaghetti and Meatballs
The spaghetti and meatballs are delicious!
The food here reminds me of what my Italian grandma used to make!
One of the best eggplant parms I've ever had.
Grandma's Sunday gravy is the best!!
Come for brunch .
Don't forget reservations . Fills up quickly. Read more
Great food and cocktails
The service was horrible! I waited several minutes for a seat, even though I was the only one in line . The waitress only gave me bread after I asked and my glass was dirty . I'll never return...
house salad , chicken parmigiana , tartufo . yum.
Coconut Capri
The service was horrible. The manager couldnt care less if I was satisfied with my meal. I won't return here whenever I am back in town .
The food was gross. It had no taste. service wasn't that good either ... I wouldnt it recommend it ...
What a waste of money!! How do you mess up fried dough ? A zeppole should not be able to break your tooth! Worst experience ever! Waste of money.
Never eat here
Hands down the best italian food in Portland! The service is amazing and truly feels like you are dining in the heart of Italy! - Kelly Donnelly
The pizza is fabulous. Check out their sausage w/ fresh mozzarella! They also have a delish vegan-choice - Cheryl Nordin
Great view of the river and the blackberry pomegranate Long Island ice tea is excellent! - Jackson Baker
My personal favorite is the McMinnville Cream (love the maple frosting and the cream filling - less cakey than the rest). The voodoo doll is a must-try, their jam filling is awesome. - Rachel Mercer
So many books and so many people which is uplifting to see in this digital age. Old and new books together sit well and you'll be sure to find something you want. Good coffee too. - Caroline Janas
A great venue, with great seats and great acoustics. - Gary Callahan
