Ox - Review - Eliot - Portland, OR - The Infatuation
"Portland doesn’t have any true Argentine steakhouses, though Ox on MLK Blvd. comes close thanks to their emphasis on wood-fired grilling. What makes the cozy restaurant, outfitted with a traditional parilla, uniquely Portland is that you can compose a brilliant meal without a single slab of beef ever hitting the table. There’s flash-fried cauliflower with peanut-árbol chile crunch, sautéed garlic prawns, and a signature clam chowder with smoked marrow bone. But if you’re here for the meat, order the asado for two, a classic that comes with short ribs, chorizo, morcilla, skirt steak, and sweetbreads—it’s an experience that’s a little more Buenos Aires in nature. photo credit: Ox" - Krista Garcia
