"Under new chef Joseph Papas, OK Omens emphasizes seasonal, vegetable-forward fare honed at institutions like Coquine and Davenport: starters such as kelp-cured McFarland Springs trout on Ken’s Bakery toast with parsley aioli and fresh horseradish are exemplary, and other standout plates pair textures and flavors brilliantly—think grilled pole beans with chanterelles and a Marcona almond-breadcrumb topping over a creamy Marcona almond spread. Sommelier Brent Braun curates a dynamic wine list that highlights Rieslings, Oregon producers, and natural wines, and the program has earned James Beard nominations for Outstanding Wine Program." - Hannah Wallace
