We decided to try the Duck Experience at $80/plate and it was cooked to perfection. Our waitress was very professional and always appeared just when needed. The cocktails were good and the corkage was $35 for the bottle we brought to pair with Duck. We will go again when they offer this event.

OpenTable Diner

We had a great time at Wilf’s tonight. We came in to see our friend, David “The Doctor” Watson off to his next adventure, to have dinner & see some exceptional local Jazz. This evening “Doc” was the featured Artist of tonight’s Vocal Jazz Workshop hosted by Portlandia’s own Legend known as Ron Steen. I was accompanied by Ms Haelli Elyse of the “Haelli Elyse Trio” & we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Many great local jazz musicians in the house & everyone took the stage & did a tune. Ron Steen is of the greatest of hosts for this kind of play & it was fun, everyone had a great time. Dinner was wonderful, our table came with Ms Daniella who took care our every need. Haelli had the Salmon & it looked super yummy, I had the Seafood Stew with the Latin Name & WoW !!!! It was so good. The table next us had two orders of the roasted Lamb Shank & oh did it have the aroma of pure deliciousness. I’m gonna make it a must to get me some of this dish very soon. This just might could be in the making, Ms Haelli Elyse was well received in singing a tune, as was everyone. Haelli was happily excited as Ron Steen invited her back. Many Thx to us All Blessings & Good Night KVN

Nostrana—literally ours—invokes local. Simple food from honest ingredients. Pure, regional, Italian. Opened in 2005, Nostrana is Chef/Owner Cathy Whims’ love letter to Italy. This is a restaurant built on relationships: with our amazing farmers and purveyors, our dedicated staff, and of course with you, our guest.

We hope to offer something timeless and authentic in a beautiful space, the regional specialties of Italy deeply rooted in the Pacific Northwest. We strive to be better every day.

Alouette is truly one of a kind and one of the most gorgeous spaces I’ve ever dined in at. When I first walked in I was absolutely stunned by how beautiful it was, then I was greeted with such warmth and kindness from our server. We got seated right away: the food was THE BEST Vietnamese-French food I’ve ever had, so unique and the flavors were all on point. I was blown away… from the beginning to the end i was extremely impressed by their hospitality. Everything was absolutely perfect and this is now my new favorite restaurant ever! Portland needs this so much and I’m so happy Alouette is here. Can’t wait to take everyone here and show them!
