    Polenta fries
    Klf B.

    Food was fantastic and service on point. Very nice inside Linguini Nero and Polenta fries

    Caesar salad
    Katie B.

    I'd been wanting to try Decarli for years, even back when they were at the old location. This new location is very spacious and still filled up on a Friday night. We got some drinks and started off with their Caesar salad and the fried polenta. The Caesar was good, but I wished we had more leaves for the price. The polenta fries were very tasty, not amaaaazing and super salty. They didn't need the blue cheese butter dip at all. For dinner we tried the smoked salmon squid ink pasta and the cioppino. The cioppino was alright, one perk was that the shellfish was already pulled out of the shell, and had a lot of small pieces of squid but I would have preferred bigger squid pieces. And more bread to go with it. The smoked salmon pasta was very rich and heavy. It was good but it too benefited from some bread to go with all that savory salty goodness. Service was also okay, nothing special. We to flag down staff to get more bread. Overall, not amazing, not terrible. Decarli fell short of my expectations. There are plenty of other amazing Italian places in Portland that would rather make the trip out for.

    A haiku review: Burrata and beets These apps fit well together Fresh citrus, dreamy Mussels in that sauce Sop it up in fluffy bread I could drink the broth Polenta fries? Weird But somehow they really work Gorgonzola dips Not a pizza girl But topped with arugula You've won me over

    Did not disappoint! Great for a date night, birthday, for taking those visiting from out of town etc We ordered: -Burratta -Short Rib -Rigatoni -Brownie skillet Pro: -Friendly staff that were prompt to provide changes of cutlery without us asking -Standout definitely was the buratta and short rib! There's a reason these dishes are popular. -Brownie skillet was delicious. It has nuts and was crunchy and gooey at the same time -Rigatoni was good! It has a slight kick to it so heads up to anyone who is sensitive to spicy foods Con: -Dark and quite loud inside -Portion for the mains are smaller so I recommend ordering some appetizers too

    The food was spectacular. Everything I tasted was rich, well balanced, and just full of fresh flavor. It's my first time going since they moved from Watson but the new space is big. It's dark like the old location but it can seat a ton of folks. I went on a Wednesday night and they had two servers running around with a lot of tables. I think they did a great job.

    Pork chop
    Surabhi A.

    Beautiful restaurant with pretty lighting albeit dim. Very popular for date nights and celebrations. We got Cabernet 2022 glass and spicy mango margarita both of which were great. For appetizers we ordered oysters which were fresh, polenta fries but that were okay. The lasagna with pork and beef Bolognese was outstanding, pork chops were good too. The waitress was nice and brought out our food promptly even tho the restaurant was full. A great date night experience would go here again to try other menu items.

    Sour drinks and the bread that cost me $5

    We heard great things about this restaurant but sadly the food was not even great. I was really disappointed about the grilled octopus that was overly salty and for 2 tiny pieces it was $22. The tortielini was average but didn't impress me at all, drinks were super sour... overall it was not a great experience. I will never go back again. It's not even close to authentic Italian food as what I was told plus they need to fix their lighting if they charge so much for their food they can definitely afford their electricity bill !!!

    Who'd believe Chelsea Audio would become a restaurant! Wide open ambience and good service! Steak and appetizers were all good as was the wine.

    We tried their New location. The menu stays the same. The bar is more spacious than the old place. They have a parking space, so no parallel parking, and battle to find a spot. We did order some appetizers: trio and oysters. They were great. Nice atmosphere and is perfect for date night.

    A hidden gem in Beaverton! I wasn't expecting such a nice restaurant inside that building but it's very elevated inside. Dim lit and pretty chandeliers! Delicious food. The service was great, very attentive to the small details. The s'more's dessert was our favorite!

    Love Decarli! The Food. The Neighborhood Vibe. The Service. Date Night, Happy Hour, or Single @ The Bar, you'll have a good time. Easy parking, big and open floor plan, hip yet darkened romantic atmosphere with the a little more than the usual Portland casual dining. You can wear a t-shirt but come on. Polo or better here please. *Steak Tartare $19 was outstandingly delicious and beautifully presented cubes of beef with the red onion, capers, and herbs to the side. You mix the raw egg and bits together and pile on the peppered crostini. I'd say "perfect". Paired with the Montepulciano this was a great was to start. *Tagliatelle with Boar Ragu $27 was fantastic with a bright, light, but yet still full flavor. A highlight. While it lasts pair with the 2020 Domaine De La Mavette a Rhone blend. Thank DJ & Decarli you for filling my eyes, heart, and stomach. I will keep coming back for probably the the same thing. Cheers my friend da

    The food is still delicious but the ambiance has definitely taken a hit with the move to the strip mall, parking is good though

I could hear him loudly sniffling and clearing his nose throughout the meal, and he looked visibly sick. Seeing someone in that condition working around food was extremely concerning. Oregon has food safety rules regarding employees who are experiencing certain illness symptoms, so management should take that seriously. The food was also terrible, but honestly, after seeing the condition this man was in, I wasn't exactly surprised. It certainly makes you wonder what germs may have been spread around while he was handling food and serving customers. On top of that, this man was incredibly rude. I personally heard him yelling at female employees countless amount of times and telling one to stop giving him attitude. If this is how employees are treated in front of customers, I can only imagine what goes on when customers aren't around. Everyone needs to do better. Nobody should have to sit down for a meal and watch a sick employee handle food while also listening to him berate his coworkers. Just an absolutely horrible experience, and I would think twice before eating here.

I had the penne with meatballs and I'm happy to rate this 5-star delicious! The meatballs were a combo of ground meat and sausage. The sauce was rich, meaty and deeply cooked - no quick simmer here.

It's often served as a whole breast fillet alongside potatoes but this one came as medallions served over pasta, broccoli, mushrooms, and a yummy sauce. The service was friendly and just attentive enough and, though the front dining area is a bit basic, it was clean and comfortable for us. Adding this to our regular rotation. We'll be back.

We started with a savory popover with charcuterie, then moved on to a scallop appetizer, seafood plate, spaghetti with morels and a napoleon for dessert. There was also a grapefruit ice palette cleanser. I ate everything with relish. This is the French way of eating, small plates which go together and space out the delights over the evening. All the ingredients were seasonal and fresh. The café is rather small and intimate, with mid-century decor and a friendly chef. I would not bring a large party as it's a small, home in the wall. Imagine you are in a small Parisian bistro and let yourself enjoy every minute.

We knew that Beaverton is becoming a known foodie destination and Don's is an example of some of the higher-end restaurant options making an appearance. We were told Don's has been here a year already, so we're glad we found it. This is a small and intimate venue, something like only 6 tables. The kitchen is open for those who love to watch the chef do his thing. I usually love to do this myself, but I became so focused on enjoying the remarkable food that was placed before us that I forgot to watch. The server's name escapes me, but he was wonderful and good at his job! He also was the person who picked the wine pairings for the meal. And what an outstanding pairing it was! Would I recommend the wine parings? Yes, I would. Don's is not cheap experience, by the way. The dinner is pre-fixe, but the wine pairings have two options and prices: full glass or half-glass. My wife and I opted for the half-glass pairing and were pleasantly surprised this this sufficed perfectly with respect to both cost and amount of wine. One memorable pairing was the sparkling Reisling we were served with our oysters! Wow, so perfect and tasty! Who knew? Well, our server a.k.a. wine steward did, for sure. In fact, we loved every dish we were served! Pictures are below. I don't remember the specific names, unfortunately. Between our server and Don, we were well taken care of during our meal. As I mentioned the venue is small, so probably not a place you'd want to bring small children. This is more of a date night (if you really want to impress) or special occasion place, or for those times when you just want to treat yourself to a great meal experience, which is what brought us to Don's. We are feeling very fortunate to have finally discovered Don's Favorite Foods in Beaverton. We will definitely be back!
