Tiger's Cafe Review by Christopher I. (04-26-2009) |
|
Not odd mix, it is what the public wants, a variety of different foods. Jace Gace only had the waffles, so now the new owner of Tiger's Cafe kept the Trendy Waffle on the menu, same home made receipe, but added French Toast, and the basic breakfast of eggs, toast, hashbrowns, sausage, & bacon. Adding other foods people like and know, pizza, salad, philly steak sandwiches, then adding lebanese food since the owner is from Lebanese decent, gives the public a variety of foods to try and love. The Falefel Sandwich is the best seller. HD TV's Play the Blazer games, more choices for beer and wines, and desserts now. All food is home made daily from the local produce stores. |

Glance Optics & Eyewear Review by Marge Pidde (04-17-2009) |
|
"Glance is the best place I've ever shopped for glasses. The personal service is unparalleled anywhere. Lisa can tell at a glance (pardon the pun) whether a pair of frames looks good on me or not. It's always worth the trip to Salem, just to stop at Glance." – Marge Pidde, Seattle, WA |

Glance Optics & Eyewear Review by Tammy Malgesini (04-17-2009) |

"After wearing glasses for 25 years I got tired of boring, cookie-cutter frames. Glance offers a great selection that allows me to express my personality. The staff are knowledgeable in helping me choose frames that fit my face's features. It's worth the drive from Eastern Oregon to receive quality and personal service." – Tammy Malgesini, Hermiston, OR |

Lisa was the first person to ever educate me on how to pick eyewear that properly fits my face. I would highly recommend Glance to anyone looking for eyewear." – Ian McNickle, Camas, WA |

Glance Optics & Eyewear Review by Leah Hendrix, Bend, OR (04-17-2009) |
|
"Before I visited Glance Optical I never imagined the positive impact that a pair of glasses could have on my entire "look". For many of us, glasses are a necessity, but the talented professionals at Glance know exactly how to achieve the ideal fit and find the perfect shape to enhance each individual's face and personal style. They take the extra time to find a look that you will love to wear and make the experience fun because they have something unique for everyone in their outstanding selection." – Leah Hendrix, Bend OR |

Mangia Pizza Review by Peter S. (12-20-2008) |
| I really enjoyed this pizza place. the pizza was great. I have come in for lunch. great slices. and have come in for dinner great pies. i recommend the greek. it is the best greek pizza i have ever had. I think the crust is light and crispy, and yet chewy at the same time. Really great toppings and not too many as well, which i dislike. I thought the wine selection was good too. Server was great too. Thank you will come again. | |

Excellent Skin Care Review by Jessie (11-15-2008) |
| Joanne's work is one of the most important factors in my appearance upkeep. I have been going to her for more than 5 years and she has never failed my sensitive skin. My straight brows are magically archful and my skin always leaves happier. Her facials are so relaxing and luxuriant. She uses her own wonderful creations for your skin, which have the most amazing feel and smell. I would recommend her to every one in need of pampering or help with hair corraling. | |

Pravda Review by Nate (03-15-2008) |
|
Vanya is great! I have left other stylists because they don't cut how I want, but Vanya listens. She is able to use her expertise to give a great cut while following at time vague instructions. The treatment is perfect- how can you pass up a haircut that includes a shoulder and neck massage? I would recommend Pravda salon to anybody looking for a top-quality, professional, personalized experience. |

McMenamins Back Stage Bar Review by Alex (02-20-2008) |
| Back Stage is a great bar to meet a group of friends, have some drinks, and play a game of pool. The space is enormous! The jukebox is stocked with good tunes and the beer is ever so tasty. Check out the upper rooms for a more cozy atmosphere. Oh! I almost forgot... there's a full size snooker table if that's more to your liking. | |

Rockin' Roxy's Dog Stop Review by Manon (12-24-2007) |
| Roxy's is really clean and well-staffed by people who love and actually play with the dogs and pay attention to their personalities and behaviors. The staff are warm and welcoming to people and their dogs, and they are flexible about day care hours. Our pooch comes home happy and exhausted from playing with her friends, and gets more exercise and stimulation there than we can provide on our work days. Roxy's has been a life saver for us all. | |

Alba Osteria Review by David Dunning (11-30-2007) |
| This place is spectacular. Not your typical Italian restaurant, which is nothing against them, just that this place is in a class of its own. Pricey, but when the food comes, you'll understand. We don't have the budget to go there except on special occasions, but every meal we've had there has been memorable. Professional, knowledgeable service, dishes you're unlikely to find anywhere else, and my companions who know wine have been impressed with the wine list. A hidden gem, and definitely a keeper. | |

Art Endeavors Review by Martha (11-28-2007) |
|
I walked into the store one day just to check it out. I was immediately attracted to the batik shirts with the bike stencil on it. They didn't have my size but Rin (artist/owner) worked with me, finding a plain white shirt that was my size and basically took a custom order for me, promising to make it the colors I wanted with the bike stencil print, even adding a few curly q's that I liked. The shirt was done within a few days and the end product was beautiful!!! I now have a beautiful hand made purple batik Portland bike shirt. I love it! If you have gifts to buy this holiday season (or anytime!) check out Rin's place, Art Endeavors. You won't be disappointed and I'm sure you'll find something wonderful to gift someone with! Support your local artists and buy local! :) Martha Portland, OR |

Broadway Books Review by Helen Wheels (10-31-2007) |
|
I live walking distance from Broadway Books. This is definitely the best independent book store in NE Portland - and I'm not saying that just because one of the owners is a friend of mine. You can pick up new hardbacks, recently released paperback editions. There are permanent sections of quality fiction, mystery, poetry, memoirs, biography, natural resources, travel, religion, politics, current events, children's books, graphic novels, anime, gay & lesbian, women's, philosophy, cooking, sale items, used books - and this is a partial list. The store is not huge, so everything is quality. If you love books, love to read or peruse them, this is the store for you. Broadway Books gift wraps for free and also stocks greeting cards and wrapping paper. This is a fantastic store that is a Portland must visit. It's not just for tourists or shoppers in the neighborhood, you will run into genuine, longtime, book-loving Portlanders. The owners actually live in Portland, too. |

Pravda Review by Lydia (08-28-2007) |
|
Gabriela, the owner and a stylist at Pravda, is the top in hair styling in Portland. She combines European style and professionalism with American warmth and years of experience. I left myself in her hands and ended up with a great cut. When I asked what she thought about bangs (I have curly hair, so you'll understand that this is a risk...) we talked about the cut and she showed exactly how to care for and style them. I've gotten so many compliments on my haircut! Furthermore, she has an excellent line of products that don't have any chemical or artificial flowery smell. She shows you just how to use them, where and the amount. However, she's not at all pushy in her approach to selling them, which sets her apart from many salons, and they are indeed top of the line. Pravda Salon itself is cozy -I wouldn't say small- and with its two chairs it lends itself to a very convivial atmosphere that you can't get in the larger salons which push the number of people passing through its chairs rather than quality and time on good haircuts. Pravda is like a fine restaurant which cares as much about your experience and the artistry of the food rather than maximizing customers. I did a lot of research before I decided on Pravda for my next haircut. I asked around, walked in and spoke with stylists and read a lot of the reviews on Citysearch. Pravda Salon was everything its reviewers claimed it to be and more; now I recommend Gabriela to all my friends. |

Art Endeavors Review by Robyn Shanti (08-15-2007) |
| The Sleeping Bee is a wonderful gallery space that features the whimsical, magical, radiant art of Rin Carroll Jackson. One cannot help but leave with a smile after looking at all the creativity emanating from these walls....psychedelic hoola hoops, beautiful funky batik t-shirts and wall hangings, multi-media painted collages, hand decorated candle holders and of course bees! The attention to detail, vibrant colors and whimsical feel of her art expressed in so many mediums guarantees that you can find a gift for anyone or an art piece to wear or give a special place in your home. | |

I highly recommend Rin's artwork if you are looking for unique, quality gifts. The Batik shirts I ordered for Christmas were a HUGE hit! I loved them so much I asked Rin to design Batik shirts for our company, and we've had lots of people ask where they could get one. Thanks so much for the excellent work and for being such a pleasure to work with. All the Best, Dimitri Portland, Oregon |

Art Endeavors Review by Nancy Bell (06-07-2007) |
| My first introduction to Rin's talent was a tee shirt given to me by my daughter. It was a batik with my favortie-a frog- on it. I visited her shop and fell in love with her print "Four Seasons." It is now hanging on a wall where it is the first thing I see when I wake up. The picture brightens my day! I have added to my collection of Rin's tee shirts, and, with Rin's help, designed special shirts for my four grandchildren. I took my best friend in when we were visiting Portland and she ordered tee shirts for her trhee grandchildren and herself. Everytime I wear one of my shirts, someone will comment on how great it looks. Thanks, Rin, for sharing your talents. Nancy, Sugar Land, Texas | |

Tour de Crepes Review by Mae R. (04-25-2007) http://www.redbirdstudio.biz |
|
savory atmosphere, sweet staff...It has become my personal mission to hop on this airstream and do a tour de all the crepes on the menu... though I've recently got hung up at a lemon curd & raspberry pit stop. (so tasty I have to refrain from licking the plate... but sometimes I cant :) Funky fun atmosphere with an exceptionally nice staff. |

Dress Code Review by christopher L (04-19-2007) |
|
This mens shop is definitely what the pearl district needed in a very longtime. As a man who travels a lot for work and lives in Portland as well, it's nice to be able to find a shop where i can find quality in men's clothing, but also good service when it comes customer service. I will definitely continue shopping there and will recommend it to my friends as well. Thank you for the service will come back for sure CL |

| You got to come in for the daily lunch special. It is some of the best Mediterranean food I have had. See you there for lunch. I am there almost every day. | |

Tribute's Pizza Review by (04-18-2007) |

Saint Honore' Bakery Review by (04-18-2007) |
| I love this place. A little bit of Paris right in NW Portland. Come early for lunch, the line goes right out the door. And good luck with finding a parking space. It is well worth it. | |

Eyes on Broadway Review by Sandy (04-16-2007) |
| I had such a wonderful experience at Eyes on Broadway - I've never had such a thorough eye exam and more knowledgeable opticians helping me pick out my glasses. I got the coolest glasses and I get compliments ALL the time. | |

Amalfi's Italian Restaurant Review by Danielle (04-12-2007) |
| Wow!! I've been all over the states and have never had better pizza than Amalfi's. Their pasta, paninis & baked dishes are also awesome. One of the last restaurants that still offer soup/salad,bread and ice cream with your entree. Be prepared and come hungry because the portions are huge!! | |

Sultan Cafe Review by David (04-02-2007) |
| They have a GREAT latte ....If you get there before 10am it is only 1.99! And Big Mike is known for his daily specials if you want to make your taste buds freak out. Anyway I give it a 9.0 - 9.5 for overall experience. I don't smoke Hookah, but it has become quite the hang out at night. | |

Pravda Review by David (03-30-2007) |
| Starting from the complementary drink, to the focused attention on me as a customer and really listening to me...this is the place. They have extensive training and understand how to treat a customer! The only thing that might be a problem is that there are stairs to climb if you are not able. | |
|
Sunlan Lighting Review by David (03-29-2007) |
| Some people build a business on filling a nitch. Well this should be in the business 101 in a college course as a example. Some lights you buy old, and new it can be almost impossible to find a bulb when they burn out! If ANYBODY can help the woman that owns this place can. She is also a old soul type of woman her advice in life is free... | |

Bernies Southern Bistro Review by David (03-27-2007) |
|
NOW...I have had southern food. Hell I married a southern girl! So when we are in the mood to go south with our palate, Bernie's is the stop. Their greens are on the money, and the fried pickles are as good as it is going to get. Chicken was good, and the owners name is Kelly she has always been nice. Of course I tell her each time I drive to come here. That will get you service. One thing thou.. don't take the fried pickles the go for later, the don't keep! P.S. summer time is a treat like back home, Kelly will serve you out back on the deck...nice too with heaters when it gets cool and no bugs! |

Siam Society Review by David (03-27-2007) |
| There's a old saying don't judge a book by it's cover...That as we all know goes both ways. Siam happens to look cool as hell, but as we know often that can be the best part of the dinner. Well the night I went it had the atmosphere and great food. I happen to like the industrial look, but I know that is personal. When it comes to thai food I am all about the sauces. To me that is the foundation of thai from the peanut to the panang. Nobody had to tell them that. I would tell a friend for sure, probably better to take them... | |

You can't beat Portland for morning happy hour. Yeah you heard it right happy hour from 9-10 am!!! Mimosas are only $4.50 & they are deeeee-lish. This morning the staff "talked me into" trying the sparkling raspberry lime drink. Champagne+lime syrup+frozen raspberries. YUM-O! Oh yeah, the crepes are great too :) |

The Tin Shed Review by Mae R. (03-13-2007) |
| Breakfast is some of my favorite food... and I know I'm not alone as I've probably stood behind half of Portland one Sunday or other waiting for the highly coveted booth. Well let me tell you, if Tin Shed isn't already one of your regulars... good, one less person to wait behind... just kidding... its damn good breakfast. Its where you go when you want to break the hash brown routine and mix it up with a little grits and maybe get down with a potato pancake or two. Also, should you be out on a doggy date, and want to impress your four-legged friend, you can order off the "dog menu"... yes, thats what I said, I guess you'll just have to go check it out for yourself. | |

Amnesia Brewing Review by Gary (02-06-2007) |
| Outdoor seating with a grill filling your nostrils with the smell of tasty burgers while you sip on a full flavored micro-brew...you can also get beer to go. I got mine in a mason jar:) | |
|
Mississippi Pizza and Atlantis Lounge Review by Gary (02-06-2007) |
| Not only do they have great tasting pizza by the slice or by the pie, they have quality music in the room adjacent to the pizza parlor. Which has ample seating and a little lounge in the back with a bar serving some tasty micro-brews. | |
|
Cricket Cafe Review by Gary (02-06-2007) |
| A wonderful little nook on Belmont serving a good breakfast and a really good fruit cup. Filled with fresh kiwi, melons, pineapple, etc. | |
|
Bella Faccia Pizzeria Review by Gary (02-06-2007) |
| Outdoor seating when weather permits, good happy hour, and piping hot pizza. Surrounded by some quality art studios. I don't think one can ask for much more. | |

La Bonita Review by Gary (02-06-2007) |

Moonstruck Chocolate Co. Review by Gary (02-06-2007) |
| I had a jonsin for some chocolate and so did the gal I was with. So we splurged and got three truffles one of which looked like a ice cream cone. | |

Cricket Cafe Review by mike (02-06-2007) |
| I love this place! Little, quaint and right in the middle of hip happening SE Belmont Street. Servers are cool and the food is top notch, quality ingredients for a fair price. Go there! | |

McMenamins Barley Mill Pub Review by Gary (02-05-2007) |

Bolt Review by Mae R. (01-25-2007) http://www.redbirdstudio.biz |
| If you feel the way I do about really great fabric (like you want to take them off the wall and roll around in them) then this is the place for you. Unique, funky, fabulous prints- the owner/buyer has great taste. I have to come in with a budget or I would leave with the whole store! | |
|
HiiH Gallery Review by Mae R. (01-25-2007) http://www.redbirdstudio.biz |
| Though you can see their lamps in establishments all around town, there is something other worldly about walking into their show room on Alberta. Its like stepping into an artists vivid imagination... and you can leave with part of it! | |

Moonstruck Chocolate Co. Review by Mae R. (01-25-2007) http://www.redbirdstudio.biz |
| When my girlfriends (or I) have "one of those days" we drive across town to come here for some Mexican hot chocolate, or truffles, or cake.... or all of it... and yes, chocolate makes it better. My mom, who lives north of Seattle, has me send it to her, its that good! | |

Broadway Books Review by Mae R. (01-25-2007) http://www.redbirdstudio.biz |
| I like little local book stores like this. You know the owners must be book lovers and therefore choose their inventory accordingly (not just the New York times best seller list). I feel like I could go in here, close my eyes, spin around, pick out a book, and it would almost certainly be good. | |

Shrunken Head Massage Review by Mikey (01-24-2007) |
| I went in for a smaller head and came out with no back aches! This little joint feels like 18th century London/Modern PDX. Very fun and great massages too. | |

Black Rose Collective Review by Lilly Rice (01-14-2007) |
|
I love this place. They get ton's of wonderful things donated from the caring community,clothes, books, appliances, and bits and bobs. They have free organic coffee (and it's stttttrrronnng). There is a wonderful lending library with a great selection of books, also rental video's and DVD's.The Blackrose Collective has been around for 2 years now, the free porch has been going for nearly 6 years and the Mississippi cooperative home next door has been a collective community home for over 10 years. So once you run out of money from paying the ridiculously un-sustainable high prices for new housing in the neighborhood, or you can't find a job to pay the outrageous amounts,stop in and pick up a warm,dry jacket for the winter, pick up a tent for when you get evicted from your condo.Or just come and meet the culturally diverse community members who cannot afford to, or feel comfortable shopping at all the cream puff stores on Mississippi. |

Tour de Crepes Review by Betten (12-23-2006) |
| This is the sweetest little spot on Alberta. It's as cozy as can be inside the building (outside is great too, in the summer!) and the crepes are FABULOUS! I've had the prosciutto fig and goat cheese one and the raspberry lime Nutella (plus a few bites of my BFs Gruyere and Apple :) They were all divine. And the staff is great too by the way. It's so fun to eat great food in an unpretentious environment - very casual and cozy. | |
