2017 Best in Portland Food Survey

We want your opinion! What are the Best Restaurants in the Portland Metro?

We skipped our poll 2016, because it was getting a bit ridiculous as everyone else was copying our polls, but another year has passed and we’d really like to know what you think.

We are awarding 3 randomly drawn participants a $25.00 gift certificate to the winner of Best Restaurant, and a $50 gift certificate for the Best New Restaurant winner, and finally 9.5″ DaTerra Cucina Vesuvio ceramic coated pan.

Most questions list restaurants which received votes in the last few years or have recently received a lot of buzz. Hopefully this will jog your memory and make this easy. If I’ve missed your favorite, each has a box at the bottom which you can fill in. You can leave a comment on any question, which may be used anonymously in the results. Please note the rules at the bottom of this post.

You’ll find the survey below (or here if you are reading with a feed), but you can give the questions thought in advance:

• Best Bakery (not including bread)
• Best Bread Bakery
• Best BBQ
• Best Beer Bar
• Best Brunch
• Best Burger
• Best Chinese
• Best Coffeehouse
• Best Coffee Roaster
• Best Cocktail Bar
• Best Dessert
• Best Happy Hour
• Best Indian Food
• Best Italian
• Best Middle-Eastern/etc.
• Best Lunch
• Best Mexican
• Best Pizza
• Best Seafood
• Best Steak
• Best Sushi
• Best Thai
• Best Vegetarian
• Best Vietnamese
• Most Child Friendly
• Most Romantic
• Of all the restaurants that have closed in the last 18 months, I’ll miss this one the most.
• Best New Restaurant in Portland

I’ve thrown in a few fun ones at the end for those who want to take them, but they won’t effect your eligibility for the drawing: Most Romantic, Best First Date, Best for Quiet Conversation, and Family Friendly. If you could like this post on Facebook, I would appreciate it.

A few rules:

If you don’t have an opinion about every category in this survey, you can skip up to 15 questions and still be eligible for the drawing. You must fill out the Best Restaurant in Portland section – all five of the optional boxes count as one question.

Entries generated by script or other automated means and entries by any means which subvert the entry process are void. Multiple entries received from any person will be void. If you have not filled out at least 15 answers including the required “Best Restaurant” you will not be eligible for the drawing. Winners will be notified at the email address used to enter the contest. The person receiving and replying to the email announcement email will be considered the winner. PortlandFoodandDrink.com or the company donating the incentive will mail the contest prize to the address supplied by the recipient of the winner announcement email. Claiming of prizes requires an email response from the winning sender email address within 30 days of being notified of winning at the email address used to enter. Failure to respond shall mean that the winner forfeits the prize. PortlandFoodandDrink.com is not required to award elsewhere any prizes forfeited by the chosen winner(s). The drawing will close when we have received 1,000 completed surveys, or after 30 days has passed.
