Depending on what day of the week, ya might even be able to take in a “peaceful…”; well you know what they are called. Be sure to check out the local fly shop(s) scene. Enjoy!!

A hobo tried to cut the head off one of our security guards last Saturday. Luckily he got his hand between the machetes blade and his neck and only went to the hospital for a severe hand laceration. This was broad daylight so keep your head on a swivel. Don't know many Italian places downtown, that style seems to be falling out of favor. I can recommend a good Mexican place. I make their cinnamon ice cream for them. Nuestra Cocina on division.

My son recommends Nostrana. Never been there myself, but he eats at high end places all over the country so trust his judgement on a recommendation.

Menus | Nostrana

Cathy Whims presents seasonally influenced Italian dishes, including popular thin-crust pizzas and wood-grilled fare, in a beautiful, soaring space, featuring an extensive wine list and innovative cocktails.

Look up assaults in Portland August 20th 2022....

Not everything is in the news... I was there, I saw the ambulance, I know the guy who got cut, I got the first hand accounts from security, witnesses, including board members, but you don't have to belive me this is the internet

Not Italian - but Andina for Peruvian food is a top notch BOMB!
First hand been there!

 

[PhilR]

Carina on nw 21st is a great Mediterranean/tapas place. More northern Italian than southern. We also like Alora on nw 9th.

Second Andina. Great food and location.

 

[Mossback]

Thanks to both of you...
We like all that stuff.

Just got an update, 13 stitches, he's not at work today and what I was afraid of.. he got lunch from me right before it happened so he's pretty mad about that. So he'll definatly be eating for free from me the rest of the year.

Not Portland but close, Elements in downtown Vancouver, amazing chef. Went to one of his wine pairing dinners, comped, because we were a supplier for him.

Where I used to work there was a guy with the Acrop on his route, good thing he was salary. Another guy had Sassys, standing order for 1 pack of hamburger buns, definitely did not meet the order minimum

Gilda's and Campana are both awesome. Tough choice.

Yeah, that one is not a viable option this trip...

Jesus, that's just another day in Portland. Hardly newsworthy. Now if a head comes clean off, well that's news.

 

[OnTheFlyWitHKy]

Casa Italian on division, gabbianos in NE, CARINA on nw 23rd is good too.
East coast transplant, I am constantly looking for good Italian
