Food Scene

No opening in recent memory has created a fervor quite like Ava Gene's, the polished Italian restaurant by Stumptown's Duane Sorenson and NYC transplant Joshua McFadden (just ask Bon Appetit's Andrew Knowlton, who named the spot the #5 restaurant in the country in 2013). The room itself provides Division's must-visit see-and-be-seen spot, but McFadden's dishes — especially toothsome pastas and expertly executed vegetables — prove this book should be judged beyond its cover.

When it comes to restaurants combining high kitchen risk with higher customer reward, Aviary, the eclectic, often electric Alberta Street restaurant has few rivals. Like few other Portland restaurants — Le Pigeon comes to mind — Aviary chef Sarah Pliner and her team are willing to marry unusual ingredients and flavor combinations, but never at the expense of good taste. So you’ll find a refreshingly global reach to the menu, where a chicken skin and watermelon salad might be lined with baba ghanouj, then, for the next trick, a black cod fillet comes spiked with yuzu. Pristine shigoku oysters come with tomato granita; pan-fried sweetbreads with kimchi and green apple yogurt. If it’s on the menu, consider the black cod, debate the four cup chicken then settle on the New York strip steak smoked over Douglas Fir needles with potato puree, pickled daikon and bone marrow custard

One part ramen den, one part izakaya, two parts modernista basement bunker, this late-night chefs' hangout is run by the most improbable Japanese chef in town: a white guy from Michigan. But don't be distracted by Gabe Rosen’s provenance: This man can noodle and kimchi with the best of them. And the Biwa burger — only available during late night — is legendary.

Two-time James Beard Award winner Gabe Rucker rocks his East Burnside hole-in-the-wall with an open kitchen, an always changing menu, and a firm handle on how to make inventive but mostly accessible food. This is where you'll find unexpected treats like fennel in your tater tots and foie gras in your profiterole, balanced by impossibly comforting beef cheek bourguignon and twists on classic seared foie gras. If you're looking for a "special occasion" meal, invest in the chef's tasting menu

This is the Balthazar of Portland, the place that manages to be creative, yet so classic. Whether you’re enjoying mussels frites, escargots, or really interesting northwest takes on classic French-style cooking, head chef Vitaly Paley remains playful and inventive while never veering too far off the path. For those without the luxury of expense-account dining, a happy hour menu makes the restaurant more accessible to those looking for a $5 Old Fashioned or $2 oysters.

It's defined South American dining in Portland for close to 15 years, and it's also a crowd-pleaser: Even picky palates tend to warm to flaky empanadas stuffed with beef and raisins and fresh ceviche that keeps both spice and citrus in check. If you're looking for a go-to spot for entertaining mom and dad one night and your college friends from out of town the next, Andina has a proven track record.

When specials are available, snatch them up, particularly the pied de cochon and stuffed duck neck.

Centrally located, Clyde Common has always had fans, but executive chef Carlo Lamagna is in a groove, cooking share plates touting the Pacific Northwest bounty's greatest hits, given the occasional Filipino twist. Wild leaks come a la plancha, and even a popcorn appetizer deserves attention, balancing salty and sweet with tōgarashi, honey, and butter. Add in the fashionable vibe, creative desserts that still hit home, and a bar program overseen by Jeffrey Morgenthaler—the man who invented barrel-aging cocktails—and Clyde Common is a complete package

With head-bird Gabriel Rucker back in the kitchen, Little Bird Bistro has new energy and new menu items. Few people argue whether the fried chicken coq au vin is worth its fame, and the double-brie burger offered at happy hour for just $5 is a steal. Choosing between Little Bird and sister-restaurant Le Pigeon is now a lot harder.

It's best known for its meaty goodness — Olympia Provisions famously boasts Oregon’s first USDA certified meat-curing facility — but venture past the charcuterie plate into an omnivore's paradise. We love the NW location, but the original SE spot still holds claim to our heart. However, now that SE chef Alex Yoder is bringing his rustic-Mediterranean influence to the NW location's menu as well, we might have to change our allegiances. The weekend brunch is one of the city's most underrated.

It's a bit of a splurge, but chef Trent Pierce offers an unrivaled approach to seafood at the back-room, reservation-only Roe, where his multi-course tasting menu offers inspired takes on fresh fish and foraged greens. Hidden in the rear of Pierce's more casual seafood restaurant B + T Oyster Bar, Roe offers a conceptual opposite, highlighting modernist techniques in dishes that often hit unexpected notes. Two tasting menus are available each night: a $75 four-course "guest's choice," and a $115 seven-course chef's tasting.

Chez Panisse alum Troy MacLarty has a blockbuster on his hands with Bollywood Theater, his take on Indian street food. Both the original NE Alberta location and the new outpost on Division Street's "restaurant row" are fun, high-energy spots, but Division gets our vote for its plentiful outdoor seating and cool, curated Indian market. The menus are among Portland's most unique, focusing on less-discovered textures and spices like fried vada pavs, refreshing yogurt-topped papri chaat, and spicy Goan-style shrimp. The flavor-packed Kati is roll so popular McLarty has said he makes an average of 50,000 per year.

By all accounts, chef Justin Woodward is on fire.

Featuring intensely regional food, wood-fired oven pizza, and a totally accessible menu, Cathy Whims' Nostrana is a consistent, comforting presence in the local dining scene. The menu embraces a "neighborhood" vibe — Meatball Mondays! Gnocchi Thursdays! — and the space's barrel-vaulted, exposed-wood ceiling, and tables of chatting guests add to the casual atmosphere. Nostrana straddles that line between "casual-ish" and upscale, and Whims has years of James Beard nominations to prove it.

Langbaan, literally "back of house," sits in the ground floor of the boxy gray condo at Southeast Burnside Street and 28th Avenue. Enter through PaaDee, owner Akkapong "Earl" Ninsom’s casual Thai spot on the corner, head toward the bathrooms, make a U-turn, approach the trick bookcase there and pull on the meat-grinder handle. I’ve visited the covert restaurant tucked behind that bookcase half a dozen times, both before and after our 2014 Restaurant of the Year feature. Meals here are a landscape, with citrus and fish sauce as the reeds and mud, vegetables the foliage, meat and fish the beasts and fowl and tropical fruits the radiant bursts of a Technicolor sunset. The experience is a monsoon of ethereal flavors: fried shallots and lime, lush fruit and chiles, lemongrass and coconut. Month-to-month, Langbaan chef Rassamee Ruaysuntia will rotate menus regionally throughout Thailand. In practice, that might mean more pork in the Northern Thai menu, more spice in the Northeastern, more seafood in the Southern. But the progression remains the same — about a dozen dishes total, starting with a few small snacks, a salad, a soup, then a rapid-fired procession of plates, usually including crudités, a curry, some meat and a bowl of plain white rice, all finished with a pair of coconut-rich desserts. There’s only one problem, and it’s a big one: The weekend after The Oregonian's four-star review this February, Langbaan’s reservations booked out for six solid months, the complete extent they were available. To relieve the pressure, Ninsom added staff and an additional day of service on Sundays, but those reservations — now $70 a pop — were gobbled up just as fast. Today, Langbaan is the toughest ticket in town.

tart with the grill, practically primordial, its embers white-hot, sparks shooting out past red-faced cooks who pause, wipe their brows and take long swigs from jugs of water. Pan out to the dining room, warm and inviting, candles on tables, couples savoring each bite. This is Ox, The Oregonian’s Restaurant of the Year in 2013, and the biggest Portland restaurant blockbuster since at least a year before that. Argentine-inspired with top-quality meat, fish and vegetables all sacrificed to the grill. There might be too many must-order dishes to list here (another way of saying you can’t go wrong), but meals that begin with the ultra-rich roasted-bone-marrow clam chowder and the smoked beef tongue en vinagreta with horseradish and fried sweetbread "croutons" tend to go well.

Arriving at the end of America’s mid-aughts love affair with the tapa, Toro Bravo has outlasted its Spanish-inspired contemporaries by being bigger, brasher and just plain better. Don’t come here to recreate that superb seafood paella you lingered over in Valencia — the only authenticity here is fealty to the passion, vibe and infectious energy of a busy tapas bar in Barcelona or Madrid. Still, you’ll find plenty of things to savor between these blood-red walls. As with chef John Gorham’s other Portland restaurants, it’s all easy to get stuck in a happy rut here — my personal sticking points include the crisp patatas bravas, the oxtail croquettes, the seared scallops with romesco and the grilled "moorish" lamb chops. That latest craving? Manchego pillows — crisp little packets stuffed with molten manchego cheese. And always, without fail, meals here should begin with the sweet-salty crunch of bacon-wrapped dates, the pits swapped for marcona almonds, drizzled in pimentón honey.

In 2013, chef Kevin Gibson left the cozy confines of Evoe, the sandwich shop and small plates bar attached to Southeast Hawthorne’s Pastaworks, to take a gamble on a full-fledged restaurant in the East Burnside space once home to June. The move has paid off handsomely. On a balmy Friday evening, Gibson and Davenport partner/bartender/sommelier/Jack of all Trades Kurt Heilemann oversee a warm, revitalized dining room, a place where locals linger over roasted vegetables, braised meats and Dionysian levels of fantastic wine. Davenport’s collection of Euro-centric dishes can seem random, though there’s some intense seasonality at play plus a healthy dash of Gibson’s whim. There’s aren’t really any must-try dishes here — the menu changes too much — though you might find good local oysters, velvety soups or the city’s best seasonal fritto misto. Turns out, Gibson’s small plates at Evoe scale up well. If they’re on the menu, consider the rare slices of teres major steak; the delicately seared scallops; or the coq au vin, with achingly tender chicken and morels soaked in a rich, heavenly sauce
