My wife and I have been searching for the ""taste"" of European Italian food. We lived in Europe for 15 years returning to Portland in Oct 03 and have been searching for ""real"" Italian. Well, here it is! Food to die for with a European flavor, not like the imitation tastes of Portland's Italian chain restaurant (Past....). This is the 2d restaurant (the first was La Dente in Vancouver with a Hungarian cook) we have found in the Portland metro with the ""taste"". Our son's have confirmed the ""taste"" and now we all eat here often. If you don't see what you want ask. I love spaghetti aguli e olio con frutti de mare and they had no problem making if for me. Wonderful!
Pros:  Great food, table for  the night
Cons:  A bit too sports bar for the food level
