    We recommend the sage focaccia with prosciutto & the creamiest buratta cheese, & obviously the pillow pasta with the most delicious pesto.

    We went for an early dinner mid-week. Almost all tables were taken which we took to be a good sign. We had a splendid meal and will be back. Michaela was our server and she was cheerful, speedy and attentive. Food was excellent and the vibe was perfect. What a find! Well done Magissa,

    Evo is a stand out restaurant in Portland, and one of the best overall experiences I've had in a very long time. The service, the food and the atmosphere were all on point. I highly recommend adding this to your list of must visit restaurants in Portland if you are looking for an excellent experience!
