It gives you this feeling of familiarity like you're being invited into someone's home. The temperature, the decor, the table settings, the glassware. Everything was well done, neat, clean. Our server Owen was knowledgeable, friendly but professional and gave wonderful service. I felt taken care of while still being able to converse with my coworker freely. His attention to detail was impressive. From the way he held the wine bottle as he poured, to the re plating and de crumbing the table. Excellent. We ordered the salad, clams and mussels, the pasta, the crepe and duck. Every dish was delicious. The kitchen did a wonderful job of coursing things. My coworker loved the pasta which was probably the #1 dish, but I was a huge fan of the crepe. There was another couple near us and I overheard Owen suggesting a wine to them. Their wine list is extensive and Owen seemed knowledgeable and comfortable making a pairing suggestion. Dessert was offered as was a coffee or after dinner drink. L' Orange hits every mark if you're looking for a lovely dinner out. Next time I want to sit at the bar as I only got to peek in but it looked like it would be a fun experience. Thanks Owen and L'Orange team!

I originally came here with a girlfriend, but honestly, this place feels made for date night. Romantic and intimate. We had a reservation and our waiter seated us and gave us the lay of the land, took their advice and ordered their recommendations - we ordered multiple dishes to share. We would have ordered more but we were headed to a concert later so could not overdo it. The dishes were small but packed with flavor. After eating here, it's easy to see why they've earned a James Beard Award. I'll definitely be back for more!

We had heard that the new restaurant in this space was an elevated Thai experience, and the buzz…read morewas spot on. The Hua Hin menu is beautifully focused - just a few starters, appetizers, and main dishes to choose from, but everything was first rate. We began with the Miang Kham, which my wife accurately called 'salad shots' - exotic Chaplu leaves filled with crunchy and savory deliciousness, served in shot glasses with sauce in the bottom. Our server gave us the rundown - pour the sauce into the cone formed by the leaves, and eat the whole thing in one bite. Everything starts out on its own in your mouth, and then comes together as you chew. A fried whole fish with tamarind sauce, and green beef curry made excellent follow-ups to the promising appetizer, accompanied by terrific cocktails from a beautifully illustrated, highly informative drink menu. The mocktail and non-alcoholic sides of the beverage menu looked equally promising for future visits, which I hope to have happen in the near future.

AMBIANCE: A sleek and modern space with large windows to let in natural light. There's a bar and plenty of seating throughout. SERVICE: The servers were all quite knowledgeable about the food especially when describing the items we ordered. Refilled waters quickly which was nice. Very friendly and attentive for sure. Also we made a reservation online just in case it was super busy which was a nice option. We were seated almost immediately when we arrived. FOOD: Pork Jowl: The SAUCE with this was delicious. Meat was flavourful and tender. Melts in your mouth. Fried Tofu: Twas okay. Pad Thai: Sweet and savoury, crunch from the peanuts. A yummy overall dish. Crab Fried Rice: Healthy portions of real crab and tastes really good. The sauce that came with this was also delicious. Duck Confit Red Curry: Another banger. Delicious. Loved the lychee that added sweetness to the dish. OVERALL: I'm impressed especially given all the Thai places in Portland. It feels upscale but was so casual. Also the drinks were really good. Highly recommend giving this place a try.

Our two standouts were the Albacore Chae Nam Pla (the fish really sang in the unbelievable green sauce) and the Kuay Teow Kua Gai (which we topped with a little extra white pepper and their spicy sauce). The Chrispy Bean Curd Dumplings and Mapo Tofu were great too. Based on the energy in the room and the plates we saw get delivered to everyone's table, there didn't seem to be a bad option. This spot just became my number one restaurant recommendation in town.

I had a sip of the curry and the tom yum broths and they seemed solid. I love how every dry noodle dish comes with a side of broth. It is a MUST HAVE. Prices were reasonable at $16. I enjoyed the extra fried crunchy twisty bits. Good variety of toppings with plenty of bok choy veggies. Portion size was good. Food came out in ~10 mins. Pretty happy overall and would come back. As a big Khao Moo Dang lover, this hit the spot and is a couple bucks cheaper too. Although I still think Khao Moo Dang is better since they have crispy pork!

I wish they gave you an option for spice levels but the meat was the most tender I've ever had in boat noodles. The tom yum was also good but lacked a bit of acidity. Service was pretty good too. When we sat down, the server asked if it was our first time and kind of went over the menu with us. You scan the code on the table to order and the water station is on the side. You just pay before submitting your order. Ambiance is fairly loud and they have an open kitchen and open garage door style. I would come back here for boat noodles again.

Khao Moo Dang Pi-Set (5/5): Upgrading to the Pi-Set is worth the extra $3, which comes with all the standard options plus extra eggs, juicy dumplings, tender yu choy, and a side of bone broth. The five-spice pork is super tender and tastes very similar to char siu. The pork belly had a great crunch and was perfectly salty, which contrasted well with the sweet Chinese sausage. The dumplings are really juicy and justify the upgrade on its own, in addition to complementing the side of bone broth. Everything ties together when coated in their signature Khao Moo Dang sauce, which rounds out the rich meats with the perfect amount of sweetness. Logistics Tip: Takeout packaging holds up well, keeping the crispy pork belly from getting soggy on the ride home while ensuring the broth stays piping hot. Upgrading to the Pi-Set version further improves an already generous meal into an expansive dish that can easily satisfy a huge appetite.

The flavors of the curry were rich and peanutty, with chunks of perfectly cooked potatoes. The meat was thick and pretty tender. I got spicy level and it wasn't too much for me. Their spice level runs low here. It's served with roti and I got a side of sticky rice. The sticky rice was a very small portion for $4. Hubby had the tofu summer rolls which were fresh and healthy. He got the khao soi coconut noodle soup and the bit that I tried was very yummy. The noodles were bouncy, and the flavors all worked well. Their food and cocktails are presented to impress. Edible flowers, blinks lights in the cocktail... a cute date night spot. We sat inside a tuk tuk! Service was friendly and attentive.
