Best Family Style Restaurants in Northeast Portland

I don’t normally write reviews but my husband and I had such a great time. I remembered this place from about 16 years ago when my grandma took me when I was 12. I remembered enjoying the pizza a lot and figured my husband and I would enjoy that. We ended up getting the Spaghetti, Beef Cheek dish, Rosemary and Sage focaccia w/ olive oil, chocolate mousse, and lemon soufflé. We were embarrassed that we cleaned each plate, but it was worth it. I’m not even sure how to explain how good everything tasted, but every dish had something to it that made it incredible. Our server was super sweet, she checked in with us at appropriate times, was very polite and made thoughtful chit chat with my husband who’s very extroverted. We had a cute little table w/ a candle and small flowers, and it was comfortable. I recommend wholeheartedly.

First time there! Great experience, food was so yummy!! Drinks were super good too!!! Everyone was so nice & helpful!! The olives were warm, oh my!!! 😋 Definitely a place to check out!!!⚡️⚡️⚡️

We had a wonderful dining experience. From the moment we walked in we could tell the experience would be great. We were quickly provided with a server who provided us with sparkling water and went through the special for this special Sunday meal. We started with bread and whipped butter, the bread was the perfect mix of crunchy and soft. Our entrees came and did not disappoint. My companion loved her pork stuffed cannelonis and my salad was great. We followed up with Affogato Al caffee and a baked pear crumble. Overall we highly recommend Nostrana.

Flavorful display of beautiful South American tapas style cuisine! Wagyu steak tartare, grilled octopus, and Brandt farms flat iron steak were among some of my favorites. The cocktails are delicious and beautifully garnished! I recommend the sangria! We will definitely be back to try the next “what the chef is eating” lineup!

Service was impeccable, wait time for everything was low and my girlfriend and i really felt like the staff went out their way to make our Valentine’s Day dinner special. Drinks were absolutely stellar, the Jell-O shots are always worth it and a great way to start the night. I got a drink with seaweed and whiskey that I was a little apprehensive to try because it sounded weird but it was one of our favorite flavors of the night. The roti and blistered tomato curry are what dreams are made of, and the beef tartare is NOT to be missed! Gado Gado is one of the best spots in town and the rice table is so much you will keep thinking about it for a while.
