Over & Out — Restaurant in Portland

DELICIOUS

Came for my brother in law's birthday after I suggested it. We were only looking for a little cocktail bar to sit and chat at but were treated to amazing service, food, and drinks

I was sat in a cozy booth in the back room with a Capricorn, which I highly suggest to anyone with a sweet tooth! The cocktail menu was creative and expansive, I plan to try the Cumin Centipede next time.

My sister ordered a Ruby Red Manhattan, and my BIL something orange based, I don't recall.

The drinks were complex and easy to sip, and very enjoyable, served quickly even on a busy Friday night.

For food we ended up ordering the best pasta I had had in a very long time. Their Chicken meatball linguini was so flavourful and the perfect texture all the way through. I'm always fussy with cream tomato sauces but this one was downright delightful. Creamy, a little bit spicy, and just so so good.

My sister ordered the field green salad, which had the best balsamic vinaigrette, the fried shallots were tasty too.

BIL ordered the trout, which was also out of this world. It was a sizable portion and came on risotto, the brocolini was a little overbearing in size, but if that's the only thing to complain about then I will come again!!

All in all, price wasn't awful, portions were solid, and everything...

Absolutely fantastic! The staff has always been amazing — The food/cocktails? top quality. I’ve been here with several people several times over the last 4 years and everybody loves anything ordered. Aside from the dates I’ve taken here, I’ve never had a bad experience, even then, the comfort of food and watching eyes has been by my side. Tip Torbin 50% split a dessert with the staff or buy the staff a round for later! What always amazes me is that even when they’re packed, the food arrives fresh, delicious and exactly how ordered within 5-20 minutes. I’ve waited years to post this review only so that his place doesn’t get busier; I can wait no longer. 10 stars Observatory & Over & Out, keep up the good work and...

Sweet mercy, how good is the Oregano Fry Bread? SO GOOD. I'd schedule a return visit for that alone, although the ambiance is pretty fun, tucked into the back half of The Observatory Restaurant. The cocktail menu is pretty great -- a little spendy, a little mysteriously obsessed with spicy liquors (seriously, every other drink is "habanero-this" or "bird's eye chile-that") -- but very unique on this side of town, where beer tends to reign supreme. The service is also a touch spotty -- I had to chase down glasses of water AND the bill, but granted, I was in a bit of a hurry, so I'm willing to give that a pass. But really -- it all comes back to the Fry Bread. Get...
