    Eggplant Parmesan (this is only half!)
    Sierra D.

    Some of that best Italian food I've had in Portland for the price! Delicious house made bread and a good selection of quality wines. I've only ever ordered the eggplant parm because it's that delicious, and love the pasta with the rose sauce! Very large portions, large enough to share with my husband. Recommend making a reservation so you don't have to wait. Felt a little rushed at my latest visit but I do understand with it being a small restaurant on a Friday night.

    This Italian restaurant is truly a hidden gem! The food, the atmosphere, everything was spot on. The staff was so attentive and friendly, which made the experience even better. All of my friends loved their dishes, and the portions were great. Our waitress brought us some bread, which had good flavor, though it was a little gummy. We also ordered the caprese for the table, super refreshing, and the tomatoes were perfectly ripe. I got the mushroom stuffed ravioli with pesto, and it was delicious. The creaminess of the ravioli with the pesto sauce was exactly what I was craving. The Italian sodas were a hit too everyone loved their cream soda. Definitely coming back!

    Wasn't very busy on a Wednesday so the atmosphere was very chill and the staff was very attentive and friendly. Our server was really sweet so it made the food taste that much better. If you go try their scampi Alfredo! Super good, and those meatballs are no joke. Definitely a go to spot for any day of the wee

    Seasonal pasta, pumpkin and Asiago

    Amazing vibes, atmosphere and hospitality. Anfer, the owner is so amazing and has the best recommendations for food choices. I got the seasonal ravioli, pumpkin and Asiago with the creamy basil pesto sauce 10/10 recommend. My daughter got the chicken fettuccine Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo, another staple of amazing food. The bread is house made and heaven in your mouth. Do yourself a favor and eat at Bocci's

    Scampi pomodoro and chicken parm with fettuccine
    Sierra W.

    Food and service were great! Would definitely return when in Portland! All employees we interacted with were super kind, friendly, courteous, and cool. Our waitress was very attentive and nice. We came around 8-9pm and at 9pm and after it's only 21+. Small cozy dim lighting restaurant with comfy booths perfect for date night and a relaxed dinner. Seating is also available outside. We ordered the imported Italian beer, very excellent and smooth. I ordered the scampi pomodoro which was big portions, super yummy, and plenty of shrimp! My man ordered the chicken parm and choice of fettuccine which he enjoyed. We tried each other's plates as well which we were pleased with both dishes we ordered. Great food and great vibes. I love the atmosphere here! Would recommend!

    Everyone's food was okay. I had the puttanesca and a glass of wine, partner had the eggplant parm (he said good flavor, squishy eggplant), and a cocktail (the cocktail was too strong without the needed flavor). The girl helping us was polite and engaging. At one point she went on break and someone else checked on us. Service was solid, place was cute, food was okay. Don't need to come back.

    Atmosphere: Small and Cozy. Nice for a date night. Food: We enjoyed most of the food and my girlfriend loved it. Meatballs were excellent, portions were generous, fried mozzarella was fantastic. The chicken parm could have been improved had they butterflied the chicken breast. It was a bit thick but overall good. Price: Prices were reasonable. Wine was well-priced. Service: Excellent service. Anthony made us feel right at home. We would likely return just from the hospitality. Parking: I think it was street parking, but we took an Uber since it was raining even though it was otherwise walkable

    Alfredo pasta, no meat

    The ambiance of the restaurant itself is incredibly warm and welcoming, as are the staff! Service is fast and attentive with great recommendations. The food is absolutely exceptional; a large variety on the menu and the bread is to die for. My favorite dish is the Alfredo which pairs great with the Caesar salad- the pictures can't do it justice. And for dessert, the best chocolate cake I think I've ever had. Definitely go to Bocci's next time you need a tasty, comforting, filling meal!

    Warm Bread Pudding
    Xavier I.

    Friday 9/22/23 Came across this spot on Yelp when looking at the best reviewed Italian spots in Portland and knew I had to go. I ordered takeout over the phone and was met with easy and friendly service. I got chicken Alfredo and bread pudding while my mom got the chicken parm (They also included house bread for free). The fettucine chicken Alfredo was underwhelming and average. The house bread that was included was okay but nothing special. My mom did not like the chicken parm at all. The bread pudding dessert was by far their best item and would've been perfect with some ice cream. All in all, good service and bread pudding aside the food doesn't deliver the expectations I was hoping for.

    I hardly write reviews but always read them. This place was AMAZING. The food was delicious and the workers were incredibly nice. I was happy that they allowed dogs on a leash on their patio so I was able to bring my family and the new puppy.

    After drooling over their Instagram, I knew I had to go. To my dismay I arrived at something that…read moredidn't look like it was a cafe or even opened. I wasn't even sure I was at the right place, thought they were still transitioning from one location to another. Until someone who shared the kitchen popped out. I was told that I should order online and come by for pick up, and was strongly urged to do so because these cheesecakes were really good. When I saw that they were doing a contactless store front, I knew I had to go. This was my opportunity to try it. I texted the owner to ask if the flavor I had my eye on was available. I was halfway there before the owner responded that they had one slice of pandan cheesecake left. There are multiple forms of payment with a card reader, and various apps to pay with online which made this a breeze. The owner Kiana, even popped to introduce herself which I thought was so nice! The flavors here aren't your typical strawberry, chocolate, peanut butter cheesecakes, even though she does offer some variation of them. There's pandan, ube, lemongrass, ginger mango, passionfruit, matcha, guava, pineapple raspberry, and I heard she even cooks up something with the pickle brine from the other business that operates in that kitchen. I thought this would be one of those situations where the food won't look like the picture. The pictures are obviously styled, they look stunning. Nope! The food looked just like what was on Instagram. I am a long time lover of cheesecake, dare I say it's my favorite of the cakes. The condensed milk ube mirror glaze was a lot thicker than I thought it would be and held its form. It wasn't runny and goopy. Loved that it wasn't a sticky mess. The crust was very very thick, I've always wanted more crust on other cheesecakes. On the description, it says it's "jasmine scented almond shortbread cookie crust" slightly saltier than most crusts I've had, but still very enjoyable. I've only had the traditional graham cracker crust and I'm afraid this almond shortbread crust has ruined all other cheesecake crusts for me. I have been disappointed at a lot of places using pandan, because the flavor just wasn't there, not Muse cheesecakes though. Pandan was present indeed. I would have loved if it was a little stronger, but I think that would have overpowered the cheesecake. Each component of the cheesecake are so different and complex on its own. They come together in delicious harmony to make this beautiful slice. I grew up with a lot of Vietnamese food and pandan has a very special place in my stomach.. heart! I've never seen jasmine used outside of tea and condensed milk outside of Vietnamese iced coffee. Kiana definitely has a way with these ingredients and she's a cheesecake goddess! I really can't wait to try the calamansi, Ube, and whatever else is getting cooked up in this delicious kitchen.

    Muse cheesecakes make my heart sing and gets me doing a happy dance. I first heard of Muse…read morecheesecakes through instagram. She offers durian cheesecake. Whaaaat? Yep, you heard me right. Durian cheesecake!!!! I am Vietnamese-Cambodian and durian is my jam. I love its pungent goodness in all forms -- pure and un-doctored straight from the prickly shell, ice cream, smoothie, topping on mashed avocado dessert and now.. CHEESECAKE! ohhh my goodness. My heart. I have returned so many times and buying extra slices (possibly buying out her supply for the week...) to share with my family and friends, who have all raved about the cheesecake from here. Durian isn't her only flavor though. She has so many creative flavors and I've noticed she's had comfort flavors from different cultures. To top it off, the owner, Kiana, is a wonderful lady. She is a one woman team and is kicking butt at her game from what I've gathered in the short time I've known her. She could be dead tired, but always has a smile on her face. I almost forgot to rave about her TARO BURGER on a vegan bun. I don't know how frequently she makes them, but if you see it being offered, do yourself a favor and get it. The portion is quite large so be prepared for leftovers. Unfortunately for me, my carnivorous sister gobbled the other portion of my burger right up and didn't even miss her meat. It comes with a vegan mac salad on the side. I am not one to enjoy mac salads usually, I think it's due to the mayo (not a mayo fan), but I actually liked this version. I forgot to take a picture of the burger before it all got inhaled. Sad face.

I decided to visit Hawthorne Asylum, and it definitely lived up to the hype. The atmosphere reminded me of a night market, except with permanent food carts. It has a fun, lively vibe, and there are so many different food options that there's something for everyone. It's a great place to come with friends or family since everyone can choose something different. There's also a bar in the middle of the food cart pod. We didn't get a chance to try it because we had already ordered boba tea from another vendor, but it looked like a great place to relax and enjoy a drink. I'll definitely check it out the next time I'm back. Overall, Hawthorne Asylum is a fun spot with a great atmosphere and an excellent variety of food. It's well worth a visit if you're exploring Portland.

The cheese and crack sundae has toasted marshmallow, chocolate, and cinnamon cracker crumbs. Omg the cinnamon crumbs are so good, that with the ice cream was really yummy (I'm a simple girl what can I say). The chocolate hardened into a chocolate shell and it was kind of only on the bottom of the cup so that was a little disappointing. The toasted marshmallow didn't add much, but maybe I'm biased bc I don't rlly care for toasted marshmallow ‍ Overall, the entire sundae is mainly a ton of vanilla ice cream. It's a big portion that I shared with someone else. Second time I went, I got the banana pudding sundae which was soooo good. I shared this with my friend and it was plenty. They give a good amount of banana pudding and you can tell it's quality. I saw bananas, the bread/wafer part, and it pairs nicely with the ice cream. Prob my favorite thing from this place. My other friend got the pbo which was also good. They layer oreo and peanut butter pudding so you get it all throughout the sundae which is nice. She also got an everything cookie which has literally everything in it. It was texturally interesting and not too sweet! Overall, good flavors and quality ice cream. The portions are a bit big and I wish they had half or even quarter sizes since these came in huge cups. At a certain point, the vanilla ice cream becomes flavorless bc there's so much of it but the sundaes were still pretty good!
