"Mendelssohn’s is unlike many live music bars in town, with an emphasis on classical over the more commonly spotted rock subgenres and DJs. Any given night may involve “Operaoke,” Oregon Symphony chairs, the Portland Gay Men’s Chorus, and clarinet duets, primarily focusing on local artists with some touring acts. Food options are relatively limited, though the composer-themed cocktails are a real draw." - Jenni Moore
