Hennessy and Anti-Smash Burgers Reign Supreme at After Ours by chef Richard Le | Eater Portland

"Portland’s first chef-driven vinyl bar opens August 7 as a moody, low-lit hangout to put your feet up, listen to records, and eat, from chef Richard Le (Mémoire Cà Phê), Kim Dam (Mémoire/Portland Cà Phê), and Mikey Nguyen (Index), with record-lined walls nodding to Madlib’s Lord Quas and Lauryn Hill’s Unplugged. The all-day menu pulls hits from Le’s cart Matta—salt and pepper squid, garlic noodles, fried rice, chicken and catfish sandwiches, and burgers topped with egg—plus a dinner lineup paired to inventive drinks by Ketsuda “Nan” Chaison (Norah, Libre). Brunch brings California-style breakfast burritos and avocado toast done up like a banh mi, and the sharing-style format channels the trio’s homes—plate after plate of duck liver and fried and grilled meats meant for snacking with Heineken and glugs of Hennessy. Standouts include the tavern burger, an anti-smash 4.5-ounce patty pressed but not flattened for crust and juiciness, the beef marinated in fish sauce for hours and stacked with American cheese (the “king of cheese,” per Le) and a house “seksy sauce” riffed from Vietnamese staples (“Everyone and their mom is doing a smash burger… I don’t want a crispy piece of paper,” Le says). Late-night, the Hanoi-style pho lands the plane with thicker rice noodles and a fattier, heartier broth—chicken or beef—served simply with maybe scallions and cilantro, a charred lime wedge, fish sauces, and chiles. The bar leans into Nguyen’s devotion to cognac with the Saigon Old Fashioned (Hennessy in place of rye or bourbon), alongside salted lime gin and tonics and lychee martinis. Open 9 a.m.–10 p.m. Sunday–Wednesday and 9 a.m.–2 a.m. Thursday–Saturday." - Paolo Bicchieri

Stopped by this morning to try the brunch noods and bahn mi. The atmosphere is quite nice! Beautiful bar. The space is airy and grand. The food was flavorful, and I would get the noods again. Service was attentive and real.

I've been looking forward to visiting this place since they opened!! My husband and I came for the first time tonight around 10pm and it was busy but we did not have to wait long at all to get a table and put our order in. The service and good are wonderful, as well as the music and atmosphere! I highly recommend visiting this place especially if you're night owls like us. We’ll definitely be here again. 🍜🥂 I got the beef pho and he got a burger and we both got Margaritas !

We've had the pho (served at 10p.) and Garlic Noodles (served 3p. Until close, I think). Both items were good but not 'to die for.' However, their cocktails are amazing a little pricey but delicious! According to one of the owners, to make a reservation, email them at info @afterours.pdx The atmosphere is a 5/5! Friends have said After Ours is the most diverse lounge/bar they've ever visited. I highly recommend going around 7p to grab a table.

Vibes were great! The place was packed, so finding a table took a bit, but that’s the norm at a popular spot. Drinks were solid, and most dishes are perfect for sharing. A fun place to kick off the night with a small group of friends.

We tried three drinks: the margarita, yuzu oolong whiskey sour, and the da nang lychee rum martini thing. Only the margarita was good. Our bartender lady was also really nice. The place was pretty too. But it kinda had an air of pretentiousness. I don't think I'd go back. Maybe I'm not cool enough, lmao.

I had the Pandan Colada - absolutely delicious, refreshing, and perfectly balanced. Definitely a 10/10 for me! For food, I tried the Garlic Noodles with Mushrooms. The flavor was great and the mushrooms were cooked perfectly, though the noodles were a bit on the dry side. Overall, still an enjoyable dish and worth trying. Great vibes, friendly service, and creative menu items. I’ll definitely be back!

Apparently, there's another "Kevin Huynh" tossing shade at After Ours, and now my phone's blowing up asking why I'm hating on a place I actually love. That wasn't me. Not this Kevin Huynh. Portland needed a late-night spot with legit Vietnamese food, and After Ours delivered. Great drinks (even if I stick to Henny on the rocks), great staff, great vibe. Treat people with respect, you'll get it back. Bottom line: if you haven't been yet, go. Amazing food, amazing drinks, amazing people. - Kevin Huynh

WOW!! Been dying to try this place out and so happy I got the chance to do so. I went with my Date and our friend on a Monday and it was fairly packed but luckily we were able to find a spot at the bar. Immediately we were greeted by the staff working and they were extremely friendly to us all. They answered all the questions we had about the drinks and always made sure we were taken care of. We got hungry and decided to try some food and let me tell you NOTHING disappointed. The fish sandwich was mine and it was delicious but the star was definitely the pickles. I’m a huge pickle person and theirs are so freaking good!! I had a bite of my dates chicken sandwich and it also was really tasty. The fries were good but that spicy ketchup…. The spicy ketchup is PHENOMENAL!!! And absolute must try. Oh and the drinks, my date had the lychee tini which she loved and I had the Henny tini which was basically an espresso martini with Hennessy and if I’m honest, if it wasn’t for work I would’ve easily ordered another 3 haha. Overall the food, the drinks, and the experience was top notch and I can’t wait to go back for more!!
