Mestizo

Portland’s Best Special Occasion Restaurants for Vegans and Vegetarians | Eater Portland

"In a cool, breezy space on Southeast Division, groups of friends and couples on dates share stuffed Beyond meat or mushroom empanadas balanced by the spicy pop of pikliz, as well as inventive vegan snacks like coconut meat ceviche or fried banana flower tacos. Cocktails here come from countries throughout Latin America, from Brazilian caipirinhas to Peruvian pisco sours, though a lovely selection of nonalcoholic cocktails uses things like leche de tigre and pineapple juice for a very compelling alternative. With a warm, vibrant environment and plenty of dishes to share, Mestizo is a natural choice for celebration dinners." - Waz Wu
