Best Bars And Lounges in Southwest Portland

This place has always been a favorite, but last night’s dinner was extra perfect. We came in as a group of 9 to share an intimate wedding dinner and the restaurant went out of their way to make everything perfect for us. The area we were seated in was adorable and very quiet - even when the restaurant was packed we felt like the only ones there. Excellent food, delicious drinks, great service. Can’t recommend IST enough for a celebration!

We ate dinner here prior to a show at the Schnitzer. The food was good, for the most part, and the drinks were reasonable. The design of the restaurant is nice but there’s a very large column along one side that really cuts off a couple tables from the rest of the room. It’s just a poor seating design in light of that. Overall we were pleased with our meal & experience and will probably come back here. Our server was not attentive and did not seem very engaged in their work but that was just one person, the rest of the staff was professional and service-focused.

Fantastic service and delicious food. Best guacamole I’ve ever tasted, hands down! Server was so warm and kind and great with our group of 6. He split checks - by name- with no hesitation. He was so attentive and engaging. Cocktails are a bit pricey- the only “negative”. Food is very reasonable and good portions for the money. Overall- excellent experience!!

Our waitress was awesome! Loved the latte, the omelet and the pancakes! Everything was good! Excellent dining experience!

We did the Sippin Santa event here and it was a 1000/10 experience. The decor, the drinks, the ambiance all absolute perfection wouldn't change a thing. Our server was also very attentive which we appreciated. Not too much in the way of veg/vegan food but we made do. We'd go again and again.
