It was a bit pricier than we expected but that won’t stop us from going back. Only suggestion would be to note on the menus if any sides come with an entree. Even though they were training some new and very young servers, the service was great and very timely

Menu was not what was listed on website. Limited selections. Very short staffed. One waitress and it was only her second day. She did well due to the circumstances. Host had no personality. Don't think I would return. Too many other good restaurants in Portland.

                                                                                                                    Is this helpful?

The service and the decor was underwhelming. Took 10 minutes to get a waitress to come to the table. Took drink orders and then took another 10 minutes to come back and forgot the wine. Orders went in and had to ask for the complimentary bread after 5 more minutes. Finally got meals and ate. Asked for bill another 5 minutes. Place has seen time fly by.
