"It’s perhaps a little odd that the most famous dish from this Northeast Portland Latin American steakhouse is neither Latin American nor a steak, but the clam chowder with a smoked, jalapeño-dotted marrow bone at Ox remains not only a bucket list order at the restaurant, but in the city. Now that Portland’s bone marrow luge fever and Paley’s Place escargot with marrow bones are things of the past, Ox is one of the last bastions of bone marrow love in town, and the restaurant’s chowder remains shockingly delicate considering the sum of its parts." - Ben Coleman, Eater Staff
