Best Restaurants for Quiet Conversation in Northwest Portland

Service was fantastic, food was delicious. A great restaurant for a quick team lunch.

The food is always spectacular with so much passion in each dish. The service is great. Give your mouth an amazing experience!

Piattino is one of the best restaurants in the Pearl district. We had the lamb shank and the risotto al nero (squid ink risotto) and both were excellent, the risotto is one of the best squid ink dishes I have had in this country. The restaurant was fairly busy when we were there for lunch, but food arrived fairly fast and the waiter (sorryI didn't get his name) did an excellent job. Finally, the restaurant is very nicely decorated and has a super cozy feel, it was especially nice today because it was drizzling outside.

Hands down the best meal my husband and I have ever had. We chose the 10 course tasting menu. We loved every dish. Especially great were the pear salad, the creme of mushroom soup, the white fish, and the beef bourguignon. The lemon crepe and the pots de creme were also amazing. We had very attentive waiters, they explained each dish, they recommended drinks to pair with dishes. We will definitely be back.

Loved both the ambiance and the food, which is a rare combination for me to find! Best wings I’ve ever tasted as appetizers and the salmon as a main plate was incredible. It was my son’s birthday and the lovely hostess had thoughtfully sprinkled confetti on the table before we arrived. May this restaurant live long and prosper!
