Being able to get anchovies in vinegar, ham croquettes, and a Belgian beer takes me back to some of my favorite travel experiences, and the Pix Patisserie dessert options continue to provide a thrill. I have two quibbles that keep me from adding the fifth star - the Tortilla Espanola (closer to an egg and potato frittata than a Mexican tortilla) is served with a drizzle of red and a white sauces. A well made Tortilla (and this one is very nicely done) doesn't really need any embellishment. I'll try to remember to ask for the sauce on the side next time. The second issue I have is that the servers didn't appear to have received enough training to do justice to the things on the menu. Bar Vivant has a lot of wonderful offerings, enough of them that they really deserve better descriptions and recommendations. Between the drinks, the savory and the sweet options, this is a very special place.

Bar Vivant is a place where you can get more than just Sherry, you get an education about the differences, variations and Spaniard regions where the sherry is cultivated. If you are into Sherry Wines, then this is the place for you. It's a "low-Key" spot with a sense of Romanticism. They have a beer garden that serves as a temporary escape from hustle and bustle. The chill vibe allows for you to take your time, sip on your sherry while trying the different tapas, such as pulpo, sardines, ham, croquettes and much more. If you are in the mood for a good dessert with your sherry, well, you are in luck because Bar Vivant is like a "two-for-one". The restaurant shares it's space with Pix Patisserie, the only place in Portland where you should purchase Macaroons! Because it is a chill spot, the service is chill as well. If you are in the area, waiting to be called for a table, I recommend you stop here while you wait.

Garrett was super helpful and we talked a bit about what I was thinking, and found three options within my budget. We settled on a fun but not too crazy wine from the Canary Islands. He held the wine for me at the front and I was able to just grab and go later in the afternoon. The price was also just right, as it was listed for $18 more on the vino app. Came back in a week later for drinks and prices were also great with a 3 drink flight for $19 all with good pours. Had a chenin blanc, a chardonnay, and a Malbec. All were phenomenal and bar staff were friendly. This is definitely earned a spot in the rotation. Love it.

Bar Loon is that pub. The back patio is a terrific relaxed atmosphere, and flexible to the weather since it's covered. They have a happy hour from 4-6pm; it's a short happy hour, but it has house onion chips and $10 wine, and what could be bad? (BTW: I see complaints in other reviews about needing to order at the bar -- and maybe wait in line. I don't get it. The bartenders are cheerful and efficient, it's really not a big deal. The only thing I might want from them is a longer bar snack menu, particularly for happy hour; that would make Bar Loon perfect, IMHO)

The food is definitely the bright spot at what is basically a neighborhood bar. I like the casual…read moreconcept of a friendly, neighborhood bar with elevated bar food, but I can see how the casual ordering at the bar can be a wait during busy times. The menu is the typical seasonal menus that doesn't give a whole lot of explanation, so I can see people asking a lot of questions at the bar when ordering. Then if you "keep a tab open," that means having to get back in line if you want to add more food or drinks. But other than this odd concept, I would say the covered patio in the back is a fun, festive space and the drinks are decent. But the food is what surprises you, with simple dishes and ingredients that taste complex and multiple depths of flavors and textures. Like the roasted cauliflower I had, that came out looking nothing like cauliflower (maybe it was also because of the dim lighting) that was flavored with harissa and served with herby labneh and sunflower honey. I was getting an early dinner, so was looking for something that could be a main but the bigger dishes sounded heavy, so I just went with the garlic sausage, which was nicely done and was a fancified pork and beans. I like that it's in my neighborhood so I can easily drop in for a casual meal that surprises.

I really enjoyed being able to try a little bit of each dish and thought that the way that everything was cooked was very light and brought in seasonal ingredients perfectly.
