Truly the best meal of my life. Please. Go. Why are you even still reading this?? Get that rezzy, boi. Now that you're back, I know their menu changes constantly, but if they have the barnacles or the dogfish shark, you're going to lose your mind.
Wow. This place is all kinds of wonderful. You actually have to walk through another restaurant, then through a back hallway and then into this tiny space. You feel so special just to get inside. There are 23 courses, each course is a bite and each bite is a culinary delight. Seriously special.
What an interesting selection of food that we never tried before, including urchin, barnacles and aged albacore and flounder. It was a great curation of sustainably sourced seafood with detailed descriptions of how each of the items were obtained. Great experience!
I've got a mom, mother in law, and sister that are all chefs plus my wife worked on Bobby Flay shows for 3 years, so my expectations for high end food and tasting menus is pretty damn high
This is the best food I've had in Portland since moving here a year ago. 13 out of 15 items absolutely wow'd me an the other 2 were great but meant to be understated palate cleansers. Very well done chefs
Got to try the first scallops ever sourced from the west coast, geoduck responsibly harvested by native Americans, and some of the most striking and inventive flavor combinations in the 35 countries I’ve traveled. Everything was either foraged or responsibly gathered with respect to availability, and every part of everything gathered from seaweed to shell, to shellfish is used. I can’t wait to go back! We had 22 courses split among about 7 flights. The menu changes with what the coast is providing that week! Hands down the best seafood in Portland; I’m convinced it’s the best on the west coast right now. I see big things ahead for these chefs. We won’t go back to Roe, Erizo is the new king.
