Best Casual Restaurants in Portland

We enjoyed everything about our visit to The Exchange to celebrate my son’s birthday. Great food, great atmosphere, great service!

Our Morton’s dining experience, celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary, was exceptional and exceeded my high expectations in every category. The staff’s attention to the smallest of detail has forever cemented this anniversary celebration as the best ever and most memorable; personalized menu, anniversary table decorations, and anniversary card with our photo!

We had a really great experience at The Fat Lamb on 1/3/25. Austin was our incredible server. He checked in with us often, gave us great suggestions, and helped us coordinate more of a family style meal where we all got to share many different dishes. We had a party of 7 total and he did a really great job of taking care of us. The food was extremely flavorful - everything came out at the same time and everything was hot. Our party’s favorites were the short rib, the duck breast, the cauliflower, and the arancini. Honestly, I don’t think there’s a thing on the menu that wouldn’t be enjoyable. Our party did not have any cocktails, but they all looked delicious - a little on the pricey end, however. Overall, we will definitely be back for a visit. I highly recommend coming to The Fat Lamb.

A terrific local experience where the attention to detail is impressive. All of the choices we ordered from the menu were excellent. We will definitely go again.

We have heard so many good things about the restaurant so we were excited to try it ourselves and it certainly did not disappoint.
