Artigiano

Great place with personal European style attention. What this means is, don't expect your food to be delivered within 5 mins. Also don't expect to be out of the door within 45 mins. Instead prepare to sit down, relax, enjoy awesome food accompanied with excellent wine and take a break. If you expect great Italian food and be on your way within 45 mins this place is not for you If you have been to Europe and know that dinner is more of an experience than a chore, go for it. By all means, go for it!

Romantic outdoor dining. The jazz music was a welcome surprise. Reminded us of dining in Italy.

I love this place. My boyfriend and I stumbled upon it last year when the wait at another restaurant was way too long, and we loved it so much we made a special trip to Portland just to eat here again this year. It's not a high-end restaurant, but the folks working here are friendly and genuine, and the food (especially the homemade pasta) is outstanding. Reminded me of family dinners back home. I'll definitely be back.

Yummy food, great wine, fun atmosphere. Don’t select meals, let them serve you, that’s what makes this place unique and great. There’s not much better than sitting out here in a hot summer night with friends, food and wine. We had a reservation and didn’t get seated until 35 minutes past, which was annoying because we were starving. That’s kind of how it goes here so keep that in mind, but food arrived quick once we ordered. Don’t come here in a hurry.
