    Unbearable evening. Burnt and way over charred octopus to start, heavily dressed salad, rubber band pasta. Spent over 2 hours drinking wine which was very good waiting for food to come out. We eat out 3 times a week at nice restaurants and are not new to dining out. This was so off we actually called it a night before trying to finish dinner. Had very high expectations and this fell so far short. I can’t even believe it. Starting to wonder why there are so many good reviews. I hate to write bad reviews but this one was a total waste of a night. Try at your own risk. I get it if things are a little off here or there, but this must have been one bad night or just bad luck for us.

    The service staff and food were both impeccable once we were seated but it took over two hours past our reservation time to be seated and receive our first course. This place is amazing. Simply not recommended if you’re short on time.

    What a great find...new since the Westin Hotel became the Dossier. Sort of a hidden entrance but what a find. The restaurant is not large, but we got a wonderful corner table. Our server, David was excellent and served the entire meal at a great pace. We were celebrating both our birthday's and not only did we get an incredible chocolate dessert, he added an extra taste bite between our salad and entree. From our cocktails, to salad, to duck sausage taste, to the veal picatta and veal shank with risotto it's hard to pick the best. David's wine suggestion was right on complimenting such an excellent evening. We have to come back soon since I failed to order the table-side pasta which is tossed in the cheese wheel...can't wait to try it.

    I stayed at The Dossier hotel and decided to try their restaurant. It was nothing more than fantastic. Service was some of the best and most attentive that I've had in a long time. Formal service is very hard to find. Staff all knew their roles and it executed like a ballet. Loved the unexpected anti-pasto arriving after I ordered. My waiter, Darren, was just as attentive to me (solo diner) as he was to the party of 6 near me. The food was amazing. The radicchio salad, stellar, and the squid ink pasta special just outstanding. I had a hard time deciding between menu items. Had I not had to rush off, I would have enjoyed desert or a cheese plate. Next time. I'll also bring a date next time. Very romantic speak-easy environment.

    Omerta was a wonderful experience. The service was top notch and unlike what you typically experience in Portland. You get the fine dining experience without the pressure to dress to the nines or be able to pronounce every Italian word on the menu; the staff are very warm and welcoming and sincere. Be sure to order the grilled octopus!

    Omerta has a ways go go. I want it to be a complete 5 star restaurant. It is a very nice restaurant with great ambiance. The food is quite good (taste) but didn't get to a 5 largely because the meals (4 of them) were luke warm. Service was good, but a bit slow, except for the ancillary members who were always buzzing around the table, maybe to much buzzing. Kitchen noise is prevalent when the restaurant isn't full, but when it fills up the kitchen noise fades to the background. It is a very expensive restaurant $$$$$. I would go back and I would recommend it to friends but I would have them read this review first.

    We are foodies and this was the best meal we have had in portland in a long time. Impeccable, knowledgeable service, great wine suggestion by Adam, the Manager, that was delicious and half the price we expected. Fresh, delicious pasta, and the best osso bucco we have ever tasted. Even the chocolate torte dessert with buttermilk ice cream was better than expected. We were surprised at how reasonable the bill was. We will be back to enjoy that beautiful private dining room!

    Has a little bit of a speak-easy feel to it. Not easy to find, but once you're there it has *beautiful* ambience. The manager, Adam, is an absolute gem. Servers are all very friendly, though not all of them are quite top notch service-wise (don't clear the table when I'm chewing my last bite, these little types of things). Let's just say that the presentation is good enough that you somehow expect all facets will be on that level. Out of six items I've had so far over two visits, oddly the weakest link was the pasta. One dish prepared tableside was cold, the other just underwhelming, though in both cases the pasta was perfectly cooked. They have the best octopus starter I've ever had anywhere. The Caesar salad is the best in PDX, no question. A meat special was phenomenal. The atmosphere and low lighting lends itself perfectly to romantic evenings, but it would be equally appropriate for a business dinner. The bathroom is *miles* away, be prepared for a pilgrimage, though it's so laughable I consider it part of Omerta's charm. I'm eager to continue patronizing.

    I was all primed to really like the courses offered, considering the reviews I read. The 3 little appetizers the servers brought around shortly after we were seated were a nice touch. But I was quite disappointed in my main crab and squid ink pasta dish, which was too buttery and heavy for my taste. I wasn't too keen about eating black pasta swimming in melted butter. My wife rated her shrimp and lobster ravioli a 6.5 out of 10. She also said also that there was too much butter for her taste, and the ravioli filling was not very generous. She said the ravioli were kind of "flat". My whiskey and apricot cocktail was very thin and I really couldn't taste the whiskey . And I like a whiskey taste. The bread was good, and we liked the chocolate dessert with home made buttermilk ice cream. But the service and the ambiance were great. The meal was quite expensive and we didn't feel we got a good value for our money.

    Omertà was delightful. The service is top notch and the Italian fare was perfect except for the grilled squid which was a bit too charred for my taste. Tucked inside The Dossier Hotel, the drawback to its location is its lack of signage and distance to the restroom (through the bar, past the hotel lobby, elevator to the second floor).

    What a lovely evening! Salvatore, our waiter, was amazing-both professional and fun! The chef is from one of our favorite restaurants in NYC-Babbo. Lovely menu - loved the veal chops, ceasar (best ever) and yummy desserts. Delicious cocktails and an extensive wine list. . Can’t wait to return 👍

    The service is really terrific, and I have to give top points for the attentiveness and service from the staff. Unfortunately, the quality of the meals have declined since we attended the soft opening. The caesar salad that we both had was quite overdressed with the croutons quite soggy. The pulpo (octopus app) was pretty tough, whereas when we visited before it was perfectly cooked.

    Omerta is amazing! This was my second time visiting since it opened in August. What an incredible experience both times! The services is TOP NOTCH and the food is even better! The cocktails and wine list was awesome and extensive. The menu is authentic, creative, and comfort Italian that any foodie would love! I am extremely picky and cannot stop talking about how incredible this place was! I will be making this spot a top choice in choosing dining. Thanks again to the manager Elise for making us feel so welcome, she is fantastic!

    This is a traditional Italian menu with the classics you crave and appropriate twists (welcome, not weird). It is a very small space which makes it intimate and perfect for a special occasion. The service is attentive and not intrusive, but maybe there is one too many people serving your table? The amount of staff in such a small place was a little distracting, but I am subject to distraction so perhaps it's just me. Adam, the service manager is very warm - my husband and I want to friend him. It is reminiscent of dining in NYC, really enjoyable meal and lovely service, no Portland attitude.

    This is a quiet little gem for authentic Italian cuisine. Upscale retro environment good for intimate occasions or dinner with friends. The wait staff were very attentive along with Adam the manager making sure we were well taken care off. I will be back to try some of the additional home made pastas and deserts.

    We had dinner there during the week and the service was not only impeccable, but all the staff was extremely friendly. Food was wonderful, cooked and seasoned perfectly with amazingly large portions. We were offered free tastings of items not yet on the menu; all of which were extremely tasty! A gem of a restaurant adjacent to the Dossier Hotel. Definitely worth the walk, drive or bus ride!!

    We really enjoyed Omerta. I hadn't realized it was a hotel restaurant until we arrived. The door was a little hard to find but when the hostess turned the opposite direction from the bar and headed to an intimate dining area to the right, I was pleased. It didn't feel at all like a hotel restaurant. With only a small number of tables, it was intimate and felt special. We were underdressed but as it's Portland, no one noticed. The service was top notch. The wine list had some glass pours that were unusual but tasty and they served the Chianti at the right temperature. The food was great and substantial in portions so we took a fair amount home with us. All in all, a great find and I'm happy to have another good, Westside restaurant to hit when we don't feel like braving the traffic to get to the Eastside.
