WEDNESDAY OYSTER SOCIAL?!!! Yes, please!!…read more Finally get a sitter, but it's only for a Wednesday? This is gonna be the best deal in Portland for a mid week date night!

The menu is expansive and inclusive, but ovewhelming and the food that I've had the few times I've ventured that far has not been as good as I was anticipating. I have heard good things about their food from other people though, so I guess I'll just have to keep trying!

Dinner at Central Provisions was such a standout experience. The small plates format made it fun to…read moretry a variety of dishes, and everything felt thoughtful and well-executed. The flavors were creative without being overcomplicated, and each dish had something that made it memorable. The atmosphere struck a perfect balance--lively but still intimate enough to enjoy conversation. Service was attentive and knowledgeable, with great recommendations that really elevated the meal. Definitely one of those places you leave already thinking about what you'll order next time.

We were happy with the service and speed at which the small plates were delivered to us however…read morethere was a small instance where we got a dish we didn't order (not pictured and it was the special). The lemon sole (fish) and octopus carpaccio (not pictured) were filled with flavor! The pork belly was very underwhelming and I would not order again. The waiter said 2-4 plates per person. I recommend starting on the lower end and adding additional dishes based on how you're feeling. The amount of food was very different from dish to dish. For example the tuna dip had way too much bread and the pork belly was very small in size. Overall I was half impressed. I wish the staff would take a moment to announce the plate as it's placed next to you or point it out on the menu for those hard of hearing and wanting to know what they are about to enjoy. However the music, overall restaurant vibe and half the dishes exploding with flavor made my experience pleasant and I will return again knowing a bit more of what to expect and looking at photos of the menu/meal options beforehand.

We ordered our cocktails at the bar then chose a booth. The drink prices were reasonable ($12 gin and tonic, $2.78 coke, $14 espresso martini). There is a self serve water station with paper cups. There are so many pinball machines and other fun games. We didn't play any but I think they operate on quarters. There is a downstairs with other carnival type games. They offer a pizza/snack menu. There is a private area that can be rented for special events. It is a fun option, a bit different than movies, bowling or a board game spot. This is a 21+ venue - an adult Chuckie Cheese!
