21 Best Restaurants in Portland, OR | Condé Nast Traveler
"At Ox, the food—which owners Greg and Gabi Denton cheekily call "Argentinian-inspired Portland food"—is among the best in a town that's not exactly starved for great options. Meat takes center stage, but the seafood and vegetarian dishes are just as good; take, for instance, the heirloom tomato salad with miso-lemon dressing, tempura crispies, cucumber, shiso leaf, sweet onion, and smoked scallop bottarga, or the maple-glazed roasted heirloom carrots with chevre, tarragon, and truffle-salted pistachios. Ox is warm and cozy, with a wood-fired oven visible right as you walk in. But this is a Portland stalwart, one that's boisterous every night of the week." - Hannah Wallace
