    Maybe the best pork I’ve ever tasted. The spaghetti was incredible as well.

    Delicious! Ordered spaghetti and pork tenderloin entrees, well presented, portion size is just right for one, wasn’t heavy, each bite was a flavor burst

    The food, wine & service were all top notch. We’ll be back based on that alone. My only complaint is the ventilation of the kitchen - when we left, we smelled like a restaurant.

    Tasting menu was delicious and not crazy expensive. Got to try so much of the menu. Went for our anniversary and would definitely go back at some point. Service was also great.

    Been here many times but first time to bring guests. Very disappointed in the Prix Fixe experience as for $75 per person x 4 people we received 10 dishes which we could have ordered separately for a combined price of less than $250. What normally is a great experience for 2 proved to be financially very disappointing and left our guests who were paying confused and us as hosts very upset

    What a delightful surprise. I wanted to try a new Portland restaurant during my stay and I picked Arden. I dined solo and had outstanding service. Since I couldn’t decide, I selected the multi course prix fix option. Each dish was superb. I never knew zucchini could be prepared in a way that you literally were savoring each bite. Each dish was unique and exploded with flavor. Special attention was made by the chef to compliment the dish on the plate and the dish that was coming up next. The first plate served looked like ordinary olives, Marconi almonds with bread and butter but nothing about it was ordinary. I am still dreaming about the smoked olives and the gorgeously spiced olives. I happen to love butter and Arden doesn’t just serve butter with the baguette. They serve house made cultured butter with salt flakes on top. The food and service was amazing. This is not to be missed. I will be back at my next visit!

    Arden never fails to delight our senses! We love the set menu and the combination of tastes and innovative dishes that are presented. The four courses include almost everything on the menu! The service is well paced and knowledgeable, comforting and fun.
