Sit outside and enjoy some (more) Italian food in the Pearl District

Blake Ellis - Tuesday, July 06, 2010

I'll never forget my introduction to Piazza Italia, a cool casual Italian restaurant in the Pearl District of Portland, Oregon. I had just moved back from 5 years of living in LA and NYC and was strolling the neighborhood in search of a good meal. I stopped into Piazza Italia and asked the person at the door for a menu. Immediately, she yelled over at another employee in Italian.. I thought "Okay, this has got to be authentic.. EVERYONE here speaks Italian!!" I quickly interrupted and asked for a table for two..

Over the past 5 years, I've enjoyed many meals at Piazza Italia. It's a very consistent restaurant with a memorable staff that knows how to treat you right. After a few trips, they really remember their customers. It feels like a little family place, which really contributes to the cozy atmosphere here. The food is simple and well done. The carafes of house wine are awesome, too.

Take a trip. You can sit outside, enjoy some nice wine, and a great neighborhood too!!!

Tasty bites await in Beaumont Village at Soluna Grill

Blake Ellis - Saturday, June 26, 2010

I had the pleasure of joining some friends in Beaumont Village for dinner at Soluna Grill. It was my first time at the restaurant, and I definitely set out to get a feel for what they offer.

We decided to fill ourselves with appetizers and shared a couple entrees as well. Some notable items on the starters list were the artichoke and goat cheese tart and yellowfin poke (one of my friends is Hawaiian, and the poke got his approval, so it must be good!). The entrees we tried were smoked pork cheek chili and potato gnocchi with chicken. The food at Soluna was really good. I'll definitely be back.

The restaurant also hosts a supper club featuring multi course themed dinners paired with wine. Seating for these events is limited to 30 people. Attend a few of these and you'll be a regular in no time!
