The Best Restaurants in Northwest Portland’s Slabtown | Eater Portland

"Solo Club recently reopened after two years under David Rodriguez, a Teardrop alum. Balanced drinks with Caribbean and Latin American influences are the focus, relying on house syrups and cordials. Chef Romeo Lopez, who also runs the culinary program at Besaw’s, is handling the food at Solo Club; the menu leans heavily on tapas-like small plates, including things like fried calamari with chile aioli, spot prawns with adobo, and nachos." - Alex Frane

This place was very chill and such a vibe. The staff were amazing! I loved the outdoor seating. The food was okay. I’ll visit again but will try something else on the menu.

The drinks were creative and delicious. The vibe on a Saturday night was solid. The big win was this pet-able, lovable, creature named Theo. Coming back ASAP to hang with Gretchen and her furry friend. Highly recommend for some weekend vibes and and Theo pets.

Super cute little place! It's a very inviting space with surprisingly more space than first meets the eye. The menu is tapas and lite bites, but it's all very tasty and reasonably priced. I tried all 3 variety of street tacos, and they were all excellent. The craft cocktails are interesting, creative, and delicious 😋 (also a very generous variety of happy hour drinks for $11) This is a great spot to chill and hang out with friends. The staff seem friendly and helpful as well. Overall, it was a great experience. I'm definitely coming back here. 👍🏼

I’m giving the Solo Club 3 stars because I really enjoy the drinks and the service but I wish there were more vegan options. I also think the guy who isn’t even working for them but always playing REALLY loud music outside takes the vibe way down. He’s so loud and kinda takes over the entire atmosphere and makes me not want to visit.

My wife and I rented out Solo Club during the day for our baby shower and it was the most BEAUTIFUL and perfect space for the occasion! The guests loved all the drinks and food! The bar is so aesthetically pleasing and there is tons of natural light making for the best photos. It was truly an unforgettable day. The staff were all so helpful as well! There was plenty of room for the guests to move around and mingle too. Highly recommend! All of our friends said it was definitely the most fun baby shower they have ever attended.

Delicious cocktails 🍸 and very tasty appetizers and main course that will cause a tsunami of flavors on your pallette. Perfect for a date night or casual hangout with friends. They have indoor and outdoor seating with beautiful ambience. Women run business and the bartenders servers are very funny cheerful and wonderful. They provide great menu suggestions based on your taste preference. Bon appetite 😇

This was a dope find! Johnny was a great mixologist creating me a version of his take on the “hot toddy” for the cold Portland night. Definitely try the Peruvian Lollis, they are delish!

Unfortunately did not have a good visit. Came in on the weekend behind another couple and immediately sat down inside, luckily wasn't very busy. After about 15 minutes of waiting for someone, the couple that came in at the same time as us walk out and mention they're going back to the other bar they saw us at. I thought, "oh no...the bartender wasn't super enthusiastic when I mentioned we were coming over here and now this couple left, did we make a mistake?" The server finally came over and was nice, so we order some drinks. We wait. And wait. And wait. It's now been over 35 minutes since start to finish. I get it if the bartender is back there slinging drinks, but everyone is just leaning and hanging out. No orders, no drinks being made. We decided we should have followed the other couple and left. A few tips- yes it's cute, it's trendy, drinks are $15-$20, it's pretty tight in there so expect mostly standing room or a small table if you're lucky. Service is nice but not fast or even remotely aware of pace. A non busy night resulted in no drinks nearing 40 minutes tells you something and we didn't even get to the food part.

Came here with my coworkers after work. We had drinks and calamari and truffle Parmesan fries. The interior is beautiful. There are these Himalayan salt pillars that apparently people lick after taking shots. Service was great. The guy was really friendly. The calamari needed some extra seasoning. It wasn't very salty, or anything beyond that. The sauce is a spicy aioli but it's really just mayo with Tabasco from what I tasted. The fries were good! No complaints there. I can't comment on the drink as I do not drink, but my team LOVED the variety of options although they were all yellow. The water was great!!

Great drinks! Service was a tad slow (it was very busy for a Saturday) but the bartender did a good job of checking in. Ended up sitting at the top and you could barely hear the music and it was very loud and hot. Expect to feel crowded no matter where you end up. Would recommend coming at a less busy time because the vibes were great.

Came solely for drinks, and I must say, the atmosphere and decor were absolutely spot on. The cocktails were amazing and beautifully presented. I can't wait to return soon to try their food and more cocktails!

Came here for a friends bachelorette party and our bartender was the kindest soul. He was so patient when we asked for a drink to be remade upon not liking it, and swapping it for a new one. We didn't try any food due to eating beforehand but the ambiance of this location is beautiful. The lighting is gorgeous and it's in a very nice spot for Portland with indoor and outdoor seating.

The interior of this restaurant is super cute but very small. Not ideal for large groups but we made it work for my friends birthday. We admired the Himalayan sea salt covered pillar all night. I ordered the passion fruit margarita, it tasted mainly like a tangy juice. I wouldn't order it again, but nice to try something new. For food we ordered calamari, it was battered to have a great crunch and the lemon juice made it extra yummy. The service was great and fast, we came in a very large group so they handled everyone in a timely manner.

Solo club is a great vibe! I always love the music and they have a wide selection of unique drinks and bites! This a cute pre-dinner place or just someone to grab drinks on a date. The staff is hard working, it can get busy in there but they are very kind. My favorite drink is the Jupiter Hotel or the Rebel Rebel - pop in for a good time!!

Terrible customer service, the food was great. BUT they asked for a card on file, which is fine, and then at the end told us we could split our bill. He didn't split our bill right AND he charged my card twice. So now I have 2 charges, So I am pissed and now it's going to be a hassle trying to get my money back. Not only did he charge my card for the whole table he also didn't know how to work his Toast system.

Ive been waiting for this place to open up! When I heard that they finally reopened, my bf and I decided to have a date night here on a sunny afternoon. We wanted to sit outside but all the tables were taken so we sat inside. Thankfully, some patio tables opened up so we were able to enjoy the beautiful weather outside. This place is a perfect date spot! They have lovely, unique cocktails! The cocktails I tried were delicious. The Hunny Bunny was a crowd favorite. I saw other tables ordered it. I also personally loved my boyfriend's drink which was Don Lockwood. It was Bourbon, Scotch, maple syrup and chocolate bitters. Im typically not a fan of bourbon / scotch and any bitters but this drink was delicious! The food was also delicious here! My only complaint would be the steak. It came out well done. So it was a little tough to eat. My favorite here would be the Anchovies dish. Sorry I forgot what it's called! But it had grapefruit, olive oil, capers. Delicious!! Overall it was a great date night. I just wish it was table service instead of ordering in the counter. It takes away from the experience especially if you're ordering a lot of food and drinks. After we finished our first round of drinks, we had to order from the bar. Kinda a mood / vibe killer considering how upscale the bar seemed like

Solid 3.5! I wasn't super impressed with any of the drinks I had, but the spot was super cute and all the servers were really kind. Did almost feel like there was too many options that nothing was super fantastic but maybe I just didn't pick the right drink.

I was excited to try this spot due to the cute bar scene and positive reviews from friends. My girlfriends and I got there around 8:30pm on Saturday and sat outside. Server was friendly and gave drink recommendations in an excited fashion so we were hyped to try them. The drinks were cute but taste-wise, nothing special and the food was lacking. The pork nachos barely had any pork to the point that one of my friends forgot it had meat! The pieces of pork were more like bacon bits buried under a bed of thin chips with loads of sour cream. The tacos were small and 1/2 the plate was filled with those chips. Then of course, I had to go grab a server for the check because nobody came to check on us. She responded with a smile and came out promptly, which was nice... until we realized she charged everything on my friend's card. I do wonder if the service would've been better if we sat inside, then at least we could've enjoyed the ambiance a bit more. But I'll never know as I won't be returning.

I don't quite know what to make of Solo Club yet. Our drinks were good, but the food was hit and miss, on the very salty side. There's a lot of potential to be a bar I come back to frequently if the food is improved. I like the decor, with the bar in the middle and the cute little nook on the side, but it was a little loud, music wise on a Saturday afternoon at happy hour. Bartenders were nice and friendly but I'll have to come back and see how this place is again. I really did like the decoration and the cute fish shaped glass bottles for water. Details follow. We came for happy hour, which runs from 3-6pm. The happy hour menu is small, but they also have plenty of regular food and cocktails to order from. Between the three of us, we had a glass of wine, two sangrias, a negroni, and a daily special cocktail which was a boulevardier variation with artichoke liqueur. All the drinks were good. I'd come back for cocktails. Most of the wines were on the pricier side, even with $1 off at happy hour. For food, we shared the hummus, sliders and salt cod fritters from the happy hour menu. The hummus was great and had nice crunchy chickpeas as garnish, great for sharing as well. The sliders were a little on the spicy side but a nice little meal. The salt cod fritters were super salty. I liked that I could taste the fishiness of the cod, but it had me reaching over and over for water. The bocarones toast also had potential but was similarly too salty (and this is just tasting it without the fish). I think I'd stick mostly to drinks here with the occasional snack of hummus. They didn't rank very high on my happy hour list but I do want to come back for other cocktails.

Came here while waiting to be seated at Besaw's. I suspect that the owner of this place also owns Besaw's, since they offer complimentary coffee to those waiting for a table at Besaw's. The ladies working here were very sweet, and even after they had made an error on the pricing of a quiche I was eyeing as a pre-brunch snack, they were really sweet to own up to their error and offer me something else. I really enjoyed their biscuit and jam and honey. Very cute place. Even if you don't enjoy alcohol, this was a very nice place to stop by, especially if you're just waiting to be seated as Besaw's.

Quaint cocktails in Slabtown by Beesaws. The inside has a nice atmosphere with beautiful tiles and greenery. A great selection of cocktails with interesting mix of flavors. Fo food we had the spicy/garlic shrimp, delicious anchovies!! and the patatas bravas. The menu is lacking in anything green-a salad or veggies...but what we did have was really good. The staff is available and helpful with recommendations. I loved it and will go back.

Totally love this place . They know their cocktails and will give you your moneys worth if you know what to order . The decor is cute and the space can pack a lot of people which is surprising since if you are just looking from outside it would look like a small place .I love the cute pieces that they have used for decor , they add a charm to the place . The food menu is Tapas style , and goes well with the cocktails . Can`t wait to go back !

We tucked in here for date night after a movie to try everything we possibly could. I definitely wasn't disappointed, but there were highs and lows. And most of the highs came with lows. The highs and lows... The deviled eggs. The chorizo on top was epic. It made that egg sing. Maybe one of the best eggs I have ever eaten. Unfortunately the egg was tiny and all the weight of the filling and toppings made the egg kinda collapse and end up all over my hand. Maybe a bigger egg would solve this problem for 25 cents a dozen, and at three dollars per half egg, they can afford it. The charcuterie plate. The salami was great. Again, ridiculously tasty... like over the top, the pickled celery was really good and subtle, pickled red onions were good. Mustard nice, crostini nice, olives nice. The low, it's salami on a plate. When I hear charcuterie I want something cool. And mildly complex at least. This didn't wow me at all. The warm olives. Good. The squash dish. All around great. No complaints. Probably the best thing of the night. Elegant and tasty. The flavors went so well together and the proportions of ingredients and dressing was perfect. The lamb stew. Very tasty. The bread was simple and rustic. The only downfalls were that the chickpeas taste very canned, and the broth was a little watery. But I am being very critical of this dish. It was good but at the price they charge for soup, it should be perfect. Greek fries add lamb. Another winner. The fries themselves were amazing. The toppings too. I would have this, the eggs, and the squash dish again for sure. And they may be worth a trip specifically for them. The menu. I don't like it at all layout-wise. It's terrible. One color, hard to read, too many pages, felt like it was going to fall apart in my hand, and made by a preschooler. The wine selection is pretty bad too. By the glass there's three options for red. The only varietal I vaguely recognized tasted like a barnyard. The other two were ok. I get that you're trying to be a tapas place and have regional wines, but maybe a Malbec or a Shiraz by the glass would be a nice addition. Cocktails were good. I sent the French cider back because it tastes like rotten apples. Bloody Mary needed saltiness but good. The space and the place. It's cool and "hip" and that's what they're obviously trying to be so it works. It made me happy being in there and I had a great time. The parts I didn't like were the strange ordering from the bar food and drinks and then not having any service at the tables. Yet there were two bartenders and one maybe food runner? Or other bartender? I don't know, maybe it's just me but it looks like a place where one bartender could make drinks and one person could cocktail and clear plates. For 140$ for two people I would like some better service and there is lots of places around I can get that. The last con was that big door in the front. When it opens the whole place shivers. It was a cold wet night as usual and every time that enormous door opened everyone was cold. The place has a lot going for it and lots of high points, way more than lows. I hope they do well. I felt strange and unwelcome from staff and confused when I went in, as to what to do and how to order. Like it was a click that I wasn't a part of. Chances are very good I will not be back but there is some great things coming over the pass and the bar top here. Maybe I'll try back in a year, till then, salud.

Well, this was a fun little place! We had been down the street at Bar West, and walked here afterwards for some cocktails. I really liked the energy and the bartenders were helpful and friendly. When we walked in on a Thursday evening, there weren't many seats left. So perhaps if you want to be more choosy with seating come on the earlier side of the evening. Julia R and I got a cocktail each. Their menu was pretty extensive and I can't remember the names of the specific cocktails because they were chosen by the bartenders. We just told them we wanted some drinks with Suze and Mezcal and they served us. We liked our drinks fine, though typically I would opt for something a little less sweet. We'd love to come back next time we're in Portland with some more friends, there was a great vibe.

This is a rather fancy location. Don't be afraid to dress up! They have a great food menu and cocktail menu. The lights here are dimmed and the atmosphere is intimate. They have an actually pink Himalayan salt wall so if you take a shot and need a chaser you are set! They also offer upstairs seating if you want more privacy

My friend hosted a gift exchange during their happy hour (3-6pm) and I must say that as a first timer, I'm impressed. With their dimmed lights, the place felt cozy and intimate especially if you're seated in the upstairs balcony. Perfect for date night or a night out with friends or loved ones. Important note: you do have to order everything at the bar. I tried their margarita and although I'm not a huge drinker, I really liked it as it was really fresh and light. 4/5 But the true star of the night was their solo club fries! It was delicately seasoned with their "magic dust" and also had a nice crunch. It paired nicely with their house made honey mustard sauce. Highly recommend and was a great appetizer that left us wanting more. Will definitely come back next time to try more dishes!

This is specific to having some free coffee as my friends and I waited for our seats at sister restaurant next door, Besaw's. For a Saturday morning at 10:30 the place wasn't full and plenty of seating, as there is an upstairs area available too. We took a little nook in the corner and the interior is what we all noticed first! The color scheme of green and floral, including brightness was beautiful and the attention to detail was nice. Even the mint chairs for the outside seating was aesthetically pleasing. The free coffee wasn't labeled but clearly located at the entrance and as we found our seats, we were surprised to see brunch available. A cute spot to keep in mind for the future!

Got a huge glass of red wine and 25 mussels for $29 before tip. Definitely worth the price. The mussels were fresh, juicy, and fat. There was sausage in the sauce as well, which was a great touch -- unexpected but delicious. The decor was really nice as well. You can't tell from the outside, but it's a surprisingly big space. There's a second floor balcony and a lot of cozy areas in the bar. It doesn't get too crowded either. Is busiest between 11-12, and dies down after that. Ample outdoor seating from the shared patio with Besaws. Would highly recommend! This is probably my favorite bar in Portland.

This was my first time coming here in the evening. I've been here before while waiting for brunch at Besaws. This place is the real money maker and show stopper. I love love love the bloody Mary's and told myself I need to come back for dinner and cocktails. Well that was last night... the sun was just setting and this place has lots of windows and plants that I got a very tropical vibe. The atmosphere is very Havana-esque and exotic/fun. I absolutely love the interior. First off by let me say the drink menu here is phenomenal. Fine craft cocktails that are really artistic and might I say the two that I had were sooo delicious. Second, the staff is AWESOME! so so incredibly attentive. They have little signs on the table letting customers know to order at the bar but the nice woman serving saw me sit down and came right on over- she was really really amazing and sweet. She had great recommendations on drinks. I went with the vacaciones because it's simple - it came in a very small glass which sucked because it was SO GOOD and so fresh. My next cocktail was orange and delicious - forgot the name but it went really well with my dinner. I ordered the olives and the falafel bowl. The olives are so worth it, for 5 bucks you get a big bowl of them. And the falafel bowl was spot ON. The falafel was addictive and the bowl was fresh filled with veggies and cooked to perfection. Definitely worth it if you want something to fill you up that's healthy. This wonderful little place is perfect for date night as it's super romantic or drinks with friends because it has that night on the town in a tropical town kind of vibe. I can't wait to come back.

Took a colleague from out of town here recently for a cocktail and snack. I loved that they have an upstairs seating area (which I never noticed before). The drinks are good and the fries and hummus were also tasty. Just remember that you need to order at the bar and then they will bring the food and drinks to you. The atmosphere is pretty chill and has that cozy feel to it.

Probably the best bar in the corner of NW. Expect a laid back atmosphere, damn good drinks and great bartenders. My experience has been random conversations with other patrons and amazing whiskey drinks. The bar staff are friendly and hilarious.

The bartenders here are super knowledgeable and helpful! After meeting the creator of Sip Smith Gin a few months back I was really excited to see it on the shelf, however, wasn't looking to throw back a gin and tonic. I asked the bartender what other gin drinks he could put together and he described in great detail 4 other types of gin drinks for different tastes. I don't remember what I ended up going with but it was delicious! My bf got a Manhattan which was also beautifully crafted. The ambience here is chill and very hip, cool toned, and Instagram worthy (if that's what you're into). Can't wait to go back next time we are in the area.

Wandered in for the coffee (free if you're waiting on a table at Besaws next door). Was attracted by the bar. They have in excess of 60 different bitters, a whole shelf dedicated to Fernets, and a pretty knowledgeable bar tender on staff. I only had drinks, but the menu looks really good. Next time in the neighborhood I will stop in for eats. For the time being, I will say 3 stars but it may improve . Second time here. I liked it again. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable and the coffee is free in the morning.

I had been wanting to try this place for a while as I'm a cocktail fan. I headed over there are a Sunday to specifically try happy hour-and particularly bc I'd read that they had a martini for happy hour. I ordered a dirty martini and it was tasty. The aumbiance is great. It's a great place to meet up with a friend and relax over a crafted drink. My only complaint is I was there for happy hour but the bartender server asked me a question about my drink (he was obviously upselling me and I misunderstood). So I ended up with an expensive martini when I went there to try their happy hour Made me feel like the place is all about making a buck. I'll still go back and try again-but I will have an eye open for the upsell.

Everything about this bar was cool. Only reason for the absent 5th star is that the seats aren't super comfortable. But I'm a bigger guy so that's probably more of a problem than the chairs. Drinks were good. The cocktails were great, and a good beer selection. Would come back in a heartbeat.

Update after Manager's response: I would like to clarify: my group was not offended about "not [being] served at 1:30 on NYE and consequently... [feeling] unwelcome". All of us are well over 21 and understand/ respect when informed that last call has happened. We are offended by the hostile behavior of the server. One needs to simply read other 2 and 1 star reviews to see that ours is not an isolated incident. We were not upset to miss "an opportunity to close 2018 with one final toast". We were upset, as anyone would be, at being disregarded and talked down to.

Fancy schmancy! The Solo Club is hipster heaven in cocktail bar form. The whole neighborhood feels brand new and squeaky clean--this joint fits right in with that vibe. Met friends here on a Tuesday night and had no trouble grabbing a table (note that they don't take reservations!). I was struck by how gorgeous the decor is here--lots of pink and green features, monstera leaves, a good mix of whimsy and industrial. Their menu is pretty extensive and offers craft cocktails, wine, beer, and food of the dinner and brunch varieties. You order at the bar but my bartender brought my drink--the cheapest glass of rosé on their menu--to my table. My friends had the cheese plate and a gyro. The menu honestly all looked yummy if not a little random. I'd probably spring for the $6 fries topped with "magic dust" and green harissa next time, 'cause fries + wine are life.

Super place in the Slabtown neighborhood. The drinks are very creative and good. Small plates are very tasty, try the soup dumplings, streamers and ribs, and the tacos. No pictures of the tacos, we ate them too fast . We loved the desserts, especially the Lemon Cheesecake with ginger poached peaches. We also had the Solo Chocolate Cake with hints of ginger and the coffee ice cream sandwich with carmelized coffee. They have espresso and are open late! The perfect late night spot when you're not quite ready to call it a night!

Came here while waiting next door at Besaws. Really good music, friendly staff. During the day it's got a lot of natural light which I liked - their brunch menu is meant to be smaller bites but they offered a variety of things that sounded yummy (although I did not try anything except drinks.) There is an upstairs area, and downstairs a bar, lounge and tables. If you need a quick place to grab a bite without a long wait, coffee or cocktail, this is a good spot.

Hmmmmmmmmm. So this was my experience of this place: Came in on a Saturday night around 8pm to meet a friend for drinks for her birthday. Was very crowded but was able to get a drink decently fast - good start. I always judge cocktail bars on their old fashioned. Their was...eh. It was fine. I made my next drink a glass of wine. The service was fast and friendly and let me try a couple of samples of wine so I could have what I liked. Much appreciated. After a couple of drinks I felt hungry and ordered the radicchio salad. It was...very bland. Sort of tasted like nothing. I was still hungry so ordered some fries. They were not very good. I had a final glass of wine and left slightly hungry and disappointed. The vibe of the place is very cool though, and the service was great. The cocktails aren't bad, just not special. So overall...fine?

While I didn't try the food, or see the bill, I'm willing to give this place a four star due to the house-made cola. Rum + this deliciousness is absurdly amazing. Tuesday night wasn't too busy after work, so it's a great place to unwind with a great drink to sip while waiting for traffic to clear up. There's a second floor so you can check out all the construction work that's happening across the street, and salt blocks on the walls, I think.

I'm really not much of a drinker, but I really like solo club. It's a quiet spot that specializes in cocktails with bitters. It's kind of fancy, so it's not overrun by folks drinking on a mission. I had the "street tacos" which were excellent, but if there's a better metaphor for the American class system than a haute cuisine version of Latino street food, I certainly don't know what it is.

Came in with the wife. Sat down at the bar and bartender gives us menus. Doesn't say hi. No greeting or anything. We attempt to ask a question about the menu and we get a sigh of disgust like he doesn't want to be at work or help us. Few moments later a white couple walks in and they get the greeting of a century. "Hi! How are you? Y'all visiting or locals? Great to see you"- bartender. They have a 5 minute conversation. My wife and I are still waiting to order. A server ends up coming along to take our order. All this while we are sitting directly in front of this bartender. Ambience is great and intimate. Drinks are alright, nothing special. But this bartender literally took a crap on our whole experience. One star. Sorry Solo club, your workers are your lifeline. They should be treating everyone the same. Feels like shit to spend money and the bartender is sour towards us from the get go. In hopes of you bettering your business. The bartender was a short gay Hispanic guy with slick back hair. Will not be recommending this place. You can get a great cocktail and great customer service at anywhere else in PDX

Yolo with Solo! So happy to now live above this bar. Came here for the first time tonight and got THE BEST service. Tunes on point, drinks on point, and a good looking staff to boot. The spicy margarita wasn't my favorite, but I'll forgive it. Portland doesn't do spicy. Will definitely be back!

The food and ambiance were amazing. We were so impressed by how fresh everything tasted and the price was rather reasonable. If this review were solely about the food, drink, and ambiance, it would have been a 5 star review! I have never in my life felt more unwelcome in a restaurant. The bartender actively ignored us, left us with empty drinks, wouldn't make eye contact, never checked to see how we enjoyed our food. Another bartender, after seeing our empty glasses, had to come assist. We were very thankful for her help! She is the only reason we received food! The service was awful which is sad.

I enjoyed my premier visit to The Solo Club despite its lack of any thematic homage to the galaxy's favorite space cowboy. The buildout was clean, the patrons were all ridiculously good-looking and the cocktails were a must. I had the Paper Plane and Kentucky Avenue. They did not disappoint. My friends and I nibbled on a generous presentation of olives, chicken liver mousse (which needed two additional pieces of toast for a sufficient ratio), and Solo fries. The warm chocolate chip cookie was scrumptious enough to have a second. The bar is beautiful. A high ceiling limits loud sound. The appropriate music is cool and the seating is comfortable. Upstairs has seating to accommodate groups of friends, but the furniture is much less than inspiring. You'll discover summer seating outside that is much better for you and your friends. Thank you for a delightful evening, Solo Club. Be sure to keep water in the patron self-serve. And May the Force be...wait, never mind...

Russell the bartender was so warm and welcoming. He knew his drinks and made an excellent one for me. It just keep getting better and better. Flourless chocolate cake with sesame ice cream to die for. Really. Matt poured me a cocktail called Autumn in Bavaria. Genius.

My boyfriend Josh and I attended a birthday brunch at The Solo Club yesterday and we were both blow away by the place! The decor and atmosphere of it was spectacular and the menu was inventive and delicious! It's not your typical menu, but it is worth the adventure! We ordered several things and each was as amazing as the last. The Polenta, breakfast sandwich, and egg wraps were absolute perfection. We also tried the bagel with capers, the toast, and the biscuit-all were splendid! We can't wait to return and try even more! Oh, and the staff is marvelous!

We had dinner at Breakside Brewery and then wanted a Spanish coffee at The Solo Club. We've been there before and really enjoyed the place. We got there and ordered a couple of Spanish coffee's and the bartender said they didn't have the ingredients to make one. He could make a coffee nudge so we had those. But come on, it's winter and they can't make a Spanish coffee. So after the nudge I asked if he could make a Duck Fart. He said no. Didn't offer anything that might be close. He just said no and that was it. Not impressed. With the hundreds of places to go in Portland unfortunately I won't be going back to The Solo Club :(

Considering I am here almost 3 times a week, solo club is by far one of my go to spots in Portland. Great vibes, gourmet cocktails, and BOMB ASS FOOD. Matt and Russell are the homies now! My only complaint, they close so damn early! So, If you're looking for a classy place to pregame, go vibe at The Solo Club!

This is the way I like to eat and drink. First, the atmosphere on a weeknight was fun and lively. Second, really good whiskey sours. Third, I love the menu of small plates. I had the falafel bowl, which was tasty and healthy-ish because it was full of veggies. My husband loved his lamb curry, and we nibbled on some olives too. The portions were just right. I'd go back in a heartbeat.

I was having a Cardamon Orange gluten free something something cake with a pairing of port and it was amazing. Amanda did an amazing job creating this. Russel did an amazing job of describing this to us. Our palate is happy and we will def come here again.

The bar tenders are super friendly and chill. The drinks are pretty good and they have a wide selection. The food I thought was meh we got the cheese plate, meat plate and some greek fries. It's a pretty small place but the upstairs would be nice for a big group.
