Great addition to the neighborhood. We went for dinner, it was busy and there was a scene outside even though like many Portland establishments it hasn't found a way to get strangers to talk to each other. From the same owners that started Saraveza on Killingsworth, This place knows what it's doing and the bar food theme this time is New Orleans.

We ordered the radicchio Caesar: it was pretty generous and tasted healthy. Could have used more anchovy and some more lemon so that the taste could have been a little deeper and more zingy. The fried green tomatoes on top were excellent.

We also ordered the catfish po boy and it was quite good. Not $6 from a gas station in New Orleans, but had the same kind of authentically crunchy flaky, fried catfish on the correct type of bread with shaved lettuce. Well done.

We also ordered the nut pesto and aioli mac and cheese which was very tasty. Quite a dense pasta and properly cheesy, although I would have liked it better if they had chosen a sharper cheese. They were generous with the pesto.

As always (We get this a lot here), the truly stand out dish here was the properly fried broccoli with a lime crema underneath. An excellent dish and very much worth it's price.

The disappointing dish was the buffalo wings: They were fried about half as long as it's necessary to have any kind of good crunch and proper texture, especially if you want that texture to endure being tossed in hot sauce. I also could barely taste any butter in the sauce.

I heard more than a year ago that they were going to turn the back bar formerly known as the tiny bubble room in the old establishment into some kind of sushi bar or something cool. It appears to still just be a storage space. I wish they could at least have a little bar back there that felt intimate and had a DJ or something time to time.
