If you are looking for fancy fine dining, this place is not the place for you. However, if you appreciate wholesome homeade food, giovanni’s is perfect. I’ve been there a few times and each experience has been a pleasant one. The soups, dressings and sauce are all made at Giovanni’s, and you can tell. The meatballs are also homemade and make for THE best spaghetti and meatballs ever. The pizza (when crispy) is absolutely delicious and generous. Although the salads are basically greens, croutons and dressing, the dressing is exceptional! Especially the italian. City Search – Read More>

On Thursday, June 3, I had the honor of being invited to Wong’s King Seafood Restaurants’ newest location, in Beaverton, for its grand opening celebration and banquet. What a wonderful experience.  There was a ribbon-cutting with the owners, elected officials, the president of the Beaverton Chamber of Commerce and dozens of select guests.  As part of the opening, the Portland Lee Association performed a traditional Lion Dance.

Traditional Korean BBQ at your table. The Kalbi and Prawns were fresh and good, the 8 side dishes that come with your meal could have used a little more variety. I guess I’m use to Korean restaurants where the dishes are smaller but more of them and a larger variety. The kimchi soup was perfectly made, with enough spice to make your nose run. The Korean waitress was too funny. She kept trying to get us to eat more & more and actually started hand feeding my dinner date. Oh and the metal chop sticks were a nice touch. Yelp – Read More>

My wife and I tried out Annie’s a few weeks ago. I remember eating some good burgers there over 10 years ago (formerly Roake’s?). They moved, or were closed, for several years but now they are back up in running in their original location on T.V. Highway. Portland Hamburgers – Read More>

There’s nothing like getting a sandwich served with the side of a sweet deal. Sub Station isn’t glamorous, and at the same time it’s like taking a trip into a time machine where good food is the order of the day. When all restaurants were privately owned and the proprietor was there serving it up.  Yelp – Read More>

So i went on vacation and had the so called best Ramen in Boston, MA as well as eating a yelp favorite Ippudo in NYC, but after spending over $20 bucks on a effing bowl at Ippudo, i came to the realization that this lil joint in the middle of Beaverton, Oregon is the best Ramen i have had so far. I didn’t get to try all the places in NYC and Boston, but this Ippudo place had over 1000 yelp reviews, so needless to say, you are getting some fine Ramen for coming here. So where did Ippudo fail that Yuzu does so well? Its all in the meat! The meat at Ippudo was like eatting freaking jerky. I was chewing for days, while at Yuzu, you don’t even need teeth. The meat and fat literally melt and slide down your throat. Both broths were comparable and my wife likes the noodles better at Ippudo. Yelp – Read More>

Typhoon!

So yesterday was like the perfect storm for free food. Our regional manager was in town, two people from our office are moving on to new jobs (including GastroBoy) which meant a goodbye lunch, and someone reminded me that Typhoon! had a downtown location. As the office social chair, I set lunch up. PDX Restaurant Reviews By regular Folks – Read More>

In the beginning, you could have taken what Stan Kramer knew about the restaurant business and rolled it up in one of his burritos.
 
He’d made good money in the Silicon Valley’s high-tech boom and was living the semi-retired life in Denver. His six Qdoba Mexican Grill franchises in Oregon were admittedly a “passing investment.”  Read More – OregonLive.Com>
