Spaghetti Western-themed cocktail bar with creative mashup dishes
"A Portland operation putting playful, indulgent twists on snacks: offerings include jalapeño popper arancini and waffle fries smothered in Bolognese." - Jaya Saxena
"Home to the 'Grimy' shaker martini, a savory blend of olive oil-washed vodka or gin with anchovy-and-Parmesan-infused olive brine." - Zoe Baillargeon
"Gabbiano’s Spaghetti Western-themed sister bar with creative dishes like jalapeño popper arancini." - Thom Hilton
"The bartenders at this spot from Gabbiano’s co-owners David Sigal, Blake Foster, and Heather Wallberg promise “the dirtiest martini in town,” which they’re certainly able to deliver on. Choose from a dry martini featuring olive oil-washed gin or vodka; step it up a notch with the dirty, which includes Italian-spiced olive brine and a pimento olive; or go all out with the grimy, an umami bomb packing an anchovy-and-parmesan-infused olive brine, anchovy, and a blue cheese olive. Fans of Gabbiano’s fun mozzarella stick shots will be similarly delighted by the jalapeno popper arancini, a smart mashup of the two appetizers. Slushie aficionados will be pleasantly surprised with Take Two’s plays on a strawberry margarita and a pina colada, with the former getting a hit of acidity from balsamic vinegar and the latter zhushed up with sesame and chocolate." - Rebecca Roland, Janey Wong, Eater Staff
"This spaghetti-western–vibed cocktail bar from the Gabbiano’s team leans into cinematic cowboys on the projector and a kitchen doing an Americana–Italian mashup — think playful items like Bolognese-topped hot dogs and jalapeño popper arancini alongside its drinks program." - Eater Staff
