Portland's Restaurant & Wine Bar

Wow, with light rail construction almost done you would think this place would be packed! Easy to get to, great parking, diverse menu, fun wines by the glass. The food was great, the happy hour specials were good and the atmosphere was awesome! Urban, classy but casual. Organic locally grown produce, wow! The Feta Walnut & Spinach Salad and Vine Ripe Tomatoes & Mozzarella went great with the Peppe Rosso pizza. We also tried the Parmesan Fries, hooked for life. I can see why they won best french fries! We had a fun time. Thanks Portland's and Thank you staff for your great service! So much better than some of the other places downtown. Friendly, attentive and efficient. Definitely a great place to hang out!

Very nice pizza and other stuff. Customer services are great. Wine is not as good but fair enough. Resturant environment is also very nice

The beer selection is limited, but they do have good beers for what type of bar they are. They cannot be compared to a Yardhouse because the atmosphere is just different from that of any local breweries that have over 100 beers on tap. Service in the bar has not been as good, it does seem like regulars have a royal treatment and tend to be over-bearing because they feel like they own the place, all the while demanding a lot more from the bartender. Lunches are great in the bar, the young bartender is so friendly and makes it easier to go back to work in the afternoon.

Beer selection over- rated. Going here, though, I discovered Carly's Bistro just down the street that night, that has a real beer selection and a better view of downtown Phoenix.

I went here because they won the citysearch best beer bar. Was I ever disappointed in the beer selection . I can think of two other places in town that kick their butt, Papago Brewing with 30 taps and 500 bottled beers and the Yardhouse with over 100 taps.

The crowd was on the older side also, not really my scene. Food was very good however. I will say this, given that there is nothing else in the downtown area that is any good, if you are in the area I would recomend it, however, if you want a huge beer selection, go elsewhere.
