Screen Door has two locations and it is fantastic! Southern food at its finest. Brunch here is amazing, but get there early because there's always a long line.

This is our GO TO take out. Man, it's so good. I usually substitute the rice for more mac salad, but that's because it's my weakness.
Ate-Oh-Ate | Best Hawaiian Restaurant in Portland, OR
My first experience with Peruvian food, but I try to get over to this part of town for it whenever I can.
Mi Pisco Peruvian Restaurant
This restaurant is incredible - we usually ask the waiters what they recommend and just do whatever they say. I haven't tried a single dish here that wasn't next level phenomenal.
Mediterranean Exploration Company
Best sushi I've had so far - I'm begging you to get the crispy rice tots for your mind to be blown.
Bluefin Tuna & Sushi
Cuban restaurant that is truly delicious!

Love this spot! Definitely recommend snagging a reservation. The labneh and hummus are to die for.
