The Best Tasting Menus and Prix Fixe Dinners in Portland, Oregon | Eater Portland

"Throughout the pandemic, Han Oak has metamorphosed, offering takeout meals, hosting pop-ups and brunches, and eventually settling into seasonal tasting menu service in its hidden gem of a restaurant. Behind a barely marked turquoise door, a courtyard reminiscent of a friend’s lawn opens onto a warm, bustling space, where servers drop glasses of Portuguese orange wine and Korean lemon-lime soda at tables. Currently, Han Oak is throwing its “gimbap party,” in which a parade of banchan and corned beef soo yook open for a build-your-own rice wrap smorgasbord, with fillings like koji-cured coppa, crispy fried soft-shell crab, and an array of pickles and ferments. The energy is far from formal here; if you get a reservation late enough, an impromptu karaoke party may begin. The full meal starts at $65; reservations are available via Resy." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
