Toro Bravo is often mentioned as one of the best restaurants in Portland, and it’s up there.

Tons of small plates to order, but not many entrees. That’s okay – this is a small plates kind of place. You will leave happy and stuffed. Just give me the radicchio salad (with green olive toast) and olive oil cake. But you can’t leave without potatoes bravas. And seared cauliflower might be nice. Bring some friends so you don’t have to be removed by stretcher.

On my last visit, the server took out her pen and marked all the vegetarian options on the menu. Isn’t that nice?

There will be a wait for your table, but they’ll take your phone number. Get a classic cocktail at The Secret Society just upstairs. It’s often said that the easiest way to get in is to show up right when they open at 5.

Inquire ahead of time for vegan and gluten-free options, as menus change often.
