Wow! This was one of the best dining experiences I have had yet in the 4 years I have lived in Portland. Amazing staff and service. Incredible flavor combinations! Paleo friendly. Thanks for a great night! We will be back soon :)
I really loved everything this place has to offer from the veggie platters like the carrots and creme fresh to the best watermelon salad and then I vaguely remember something salmon
Can't say enough good things about this place. The people, the menu, and the overall vibe are all first rate.
This place is food and art. Every taste is a experience. Oh and don’t forget the great service.
The staff is always friendly, the food sublime, and Jenny takes the time to make you feel at home. With a rotating menu to highlight what is in season, the chef deftly combines flavored that please the palate and the appetite. Highly recommend this restaurant!
Mind blowing, amazing, and simply the best American food I've ever had. To top that the service was great from start to finish.
Inventive, wholesome, smart flavor & texture balance approach. Cheerful & fun.
I noticed that service at The American Local is really great, leaps and bounds higher than similar establishments. The menu serves up drinks abound- draft beer, wine sake, cocktails etc, plus family style plates at a range of sizes. Lots of tapas and drinking food, plus larger plates- looks like an eclectic mix sure to satisfy most cravings. We enjoyed the freshness of the salads (assume farmer's market quality) and all of the seafood options. The roasted oyster were divine. The interior is fun, bright and airy with a casual bar-like atmosphere, a nice addition to the happening Division scene.
Excellent service. The food menu is a motley and interesting collection of different items. I had a fish with red curry that was wonderful. Also a celery root salad that was excellent. They do have items like mac and cheese which I haven't tried but would probably keep everyone happy. If you are the sort of person that thinks when they spend more than 5$ on a menu item that the dish is very large then probably not the place for you. Think along the lines of tapas style dishes.
Great place for small plates to share. The food is wonderful and the drinks are delicious. The wait staff is helpful and nice. There are shared tables so be nice to your neighbors they might share their sake with you. You can it get by the ounce. You could also sit at the bar and marvel at the chefs.
