text: Had dinner for the first time in Portlands Had been there for happy hour before It is a decent place to meet up with friends I think the atmosphere is more impressive than the food They have the barlounge separated far enough from the dining room It is not a place where I have to struggle to hear the person across from me I also like the decor and art work they have nnSo far my foray into the food qualifies as soso They have good french fries but I do not think they are worth a plate I appreciate how they highlight the use of local ingredients in the food I went for the Schreiners sausage pasta which had penne and a smattering of seasonal vegetables covered in marinara The dish was flavorful enough On the one hand I was happy that it was just the right portion On the other I thought there might be more for Our waiter was nice though our appetizers seemed really slow in getting to the table But that was more likely the kitchens doing not his Anyway go here for a nice urban vibe But if you are looking for a place to show a visiting foodie you could probably find something better
