Had been to the chef's other restaurant, Mother's Bistro, and wanted to try this one out while on a weekend trip from Seattle. Thought a little dark, even to see the menu, the service was outstanding, and the food was very, very good. Felt valued as a customer, and our server gave excellent recommendations. Liked the atmospher other than the lighting. Can see having a tough choice between this one and Mother's on future trips to Portland - both are hard to beat. While it can also be a nice romantic place to dine, it also seemed very family-friendly.
Pros: food, service, value
Cons: lighting
