Natural Selection Portland

Willamette Week broke the story yesterday that the vegetarian restaurant Natural Selection restaurant in Portland is closing on June 11th. I think it is a sad loss to the Portland food community, as the restaurant represented high-end vegetarian cooking found nowhere else in Portland. The restaurant won our Best New Restaurant poll in 2012, and since then has won the Best … [Read more...] about Natural Selection Restaurant to Close

Sometimes folks in the hardcore food community go for the new … [Read more...] about Reader Survey 2015: Best New Restaurants in Portland

Levant Restaurant

As the economy recovers, it seems like we are getting a wealth of new restaurants in Portland. However, unlike last year, only five restaurants received significantly more votes than any others.  Will the top choices be successful? Sometimes folks in the hardcore food community go for the new, shiny ball, forgetting the hits from a few years ago.
