What a great find in downtown Portland that was recommended by our hotel concierge. Great menu of selections with some really tasty seasonal options. The food was fresh, presented well, and full of flavor. Very attentive and courteous staff who took great care of us and made us feel so welcome. This restaurant was a relaxing atmosphere and you did not feel rushed to eat and leave.
This is the “new” location/re-boot of Veritable Quandary and I was reminded why that restaurant was so fantastic!
We didn’t make a reservation so we found a spot at the bar. They were very busy but the service was still great. They were friendly, fast and the food was as delicious as I remembered.
We shared the pear salad with honey, pepper vinaigrette, NY strip steak with potatoes au gratin, pumpkin dumplings, with crispy, pancetta and crème fraîche and the lamb meatballs.
The bartender was fabulous! The signature drinks on the cocktail menu were not as great as others were raving about but were still good.
Already planning our return date night here with a reservation !
The seating at the kitchen window is fabulous! Interacting with the kitchen staff and chef makes it an experience. The waitstaff was attentive, friendly, and fun. The food was complex, delicious, and beautifully plated. My favorite dishes were the bacon-wrapped dates and the desert called "chocolate chocolate chocolate", which was a splendid sampler of several chocolate treats, each delectable!
Honestly I really think the food is good, but not for the price. Easily spend couple hundred bucks if you drink a lot. The food definitely amazing but the dessert is really sweet and I don’t really like that…
The seafood stew is incredible. A really nice array of plump seafood in a savory tomato basil broth. Adding the charred bread pushes it into the phenomenal range. Oh and the bacon wrapped dates are really nice. Salty, slightly sweet, savory...

Chef’s seats are the best location! The chef Annie is so talented and caring. The crew of James and Chuvie and et al are fun to watch and talk to. Thank you Q!
Stopped here on vacation. Great menu! The cocktails were awesome. We started with bacon wrapped dates. I could have eaten 10 plates of those. I had the osso bucco and my wife had the prime NY strip with crispy stuffed chili relleno and split the baby gem caesar salad, it was all perfect!
The onion soup is perfection, and the beef stroganoff tops everything off perfectly. Warm baguette, soft butter. The atmosphere was cozy, and the servers were friendly.
Exceptionally excellent food, service, and ambiance. Great spot for a fancy birthday celebration. Unique tastes from all over the world prepared by the most talented chefs. Our waitress Emily was especially lovely.
Our first time here and absolutely loved it. Service was wonderful, very friendly, made you feel welcome and appreciated us being there. Even busy they never seemed rushed. Food came out perfectly timed. Loved sitting at the chef table top and interacting with the kitchen. Everything looked amazing and the food we got was delicious. We can't wait to go back!
