Intimate setting for Mexican cooking with locally sourced ingredients and a chef's tasting menu, plus cocktails.
"De Noche, one of the myriad restaurants launched by República & Co., serves modern Mexican fare. Expect beautifully plated renditions of seasonally-driven Mexican classics like aguachile, cooked-to-perfection birria in brothy consomé, and an ever-changing mole of the day. The bar is just as much of a draw, with a comprehensive selection of Mexican wines from women-owned, LGBTQ+, and BIPOC wineries and producers and a mezcal library from only Mexican-owned companies. Within the brick-walled dining room, visitors can dine at the chef’s counter to watch the action up close or at a rustic wooden table." - Zoe Baillargeon, Eater Staff

"Old Town’s De Noche offers a rotating Mole del Día each week, often made with Oregon produce. They also serve tlayudas and tetelas." - Nathan Williams
"De Noche's casual yet elegant environment paired with Chef Dani Morales's thoughtful menu was outstanding." - Eater Staff

Tamales will be available for pickup on Thursday, November 23; preorders must be filed by November 19 via this website." - Janey Wong, Eater Staff
