Romantic Restaurants and Bars in Portland for Date Night

"The combination of blues, brassy hues, and lush plant life make Quaintrelle one of the best-looking restaurants in town, and the food and drink matches the decor: Gorgeous plates of golden chitarra with Dungeness crab or Sichuan-scented fried chicken and caviar arrive at tables, while others knock back oysters brightened with sumac or absinthe cocktails. Diners can go with a tasting menu or a la carte; it’s hard to choose between the cocktail or wine selections, so it’s best to try both and grab a cab home." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden, Thom Hilton
