il CORSO

1204 NW Glisan St.


Il Corso is a cozy Bar & Salumeria serving up cocktails, vino, salumi, and hand-made pasta right in the heart of the neighborhood. It’s the kind of spot built for slow evenings — start with a spritz, share a board of cured meats, and settle in for a bowl of fresh pasta.

Ponto

1483 NE Alberta Ave.


Portland’s bread scene just got a little saltier (in the best way). Ponto is a new bakery dedicated to Korean-style salt bread — those golden, buttery rolls with a crisp crust, airy center, and just enough salt to make you immediately want another one. Simple, warm, and dangerously snackable. Taking a break and will reopen soon.

Bun Bandits

4419 SW Multnomah Blvd.


Breakfast criminals, take note. Bun Bandits just rolled into Portland slinging a dangerously good combo of kolaches and malasadas — aka fluffy pastry perfection from two different corners of the world. Think savory Texas-Czech–style kolaches packed with fillings and warm Portuguese-style malasadas dusted in sugar.

Speakeasy Saloon

2135 N Willis Blvd.


Speakeasy Saloon is now open, serving up good food, strong drinks, and the kind of laid-back vibes that make you want to stay for one more round. The spot is open every day from 3–10pm, making it perfect for post-work hangs or an easy night out. And yes — they even have a bar dog named Bartender.



Slow Pour

7727 SE 13th Ave.


Slow Pour Coffee is reopening in Sellwood, and they’re doing a lot more than just pouring great coffee. Along with coffee, beer, and wine, the café serves a full lineup of house-made bites — including made-to-order breakfast sandwiches, fresh pastries baked in-house, panini, salads, and personal-sized flatbread pizzas in the evening. It’s the kind of spot where a quick coffee stop can easily turn into a full meal.

Flour Market

2523 SE 9th Ave.


Flour Market is reopening after its December closure, and yes — the good drip coffee is still very much part of the plan. On the food side, you can expect the return of bread, pastries, crackers, and other baked goods, with staples like sandwich loaves, rugbrød, and plain ciabatta always on hand. Specialty breads — like olive ciabatta — will pop up a couple days a week, with a posted schedule so you know when to swing by.

Constantinople

410 NW 21st Ave.


Constantinople Restaurant brings the rich culinary traditions of Anatolia to the city with an elegant, modern touch. The menu draws from centuries of Turkish and Ottoman flavors, creating a space where bold spices, slow-cooked dishes, and shared plates tell stories of a deeply layered food culture.

Mako Matcha Mill

414 SW 13th Ave.


Mako Matcha Mill just opened in Portland, serving up vibrant, stone-ground matcha in a space dedicated to the craft behind the drink. Expect beautifully whisked matcha, thoughtfully prepared drinks, and on-site matcha milling.

OK Chicken & Khaosoi

3226 SE Division St.


OK Chicken and Khaosoi is now open, serving up crispy, flavor-packed fried chicken alongside rich bowls of khao soi — the iconic Northern Thai curry noodle soup loaded with coconut broth, tender noodles, and crunchy toppings. The restaurant is a collaboration of multiple local culinary mainstays from Eem, Yaowarat, Langbaan, Tusk, and more!

Vya

959 SE Division St.


Barcelona energy just landed in Portland. Vya is a new tapas and paella spot pouring sangria cocktails, serving up shareable plates, and channeling the kind of nights that start with “just one drink” and somehow turn into dinner, dessert, and another round.

Guay Tiew

330 NW 10th Ave.


Guay Tiew brings Northern Thai street food to the neighborhood with a focus on bold, unfussy flavor. Pork meatballs and crispy pork have never tasted so good. Design your own street noodle dish, enjoy the authentic decor, and don't forget the mango sticky rice.

Dick's Pizza

7738 SE 13th Ave.


Dick’s Pizza brings classic New York–style slices to Sellwood. From foldable cheese and pepperoni to easy sides and cold drinks, it’s all about doing the basics right. From the owner of beloved jazz club The 1905, the space carries that same neighborhood energy: relaxed, familiar, and built for dropping in anytime.

Buvons

1120 SE Belmont St.


From the team behind L’Orange, Buvons is a new space dedicated to the everyday joy of bubbles. Drawing on years of thoughtful pairings at Holdfast Dining, JEM Supper Club, and L’Orange, the team leans into sparkling wine as both an easy and endlessly intriguing companion to food. Oh, and did we mention there's grilled cheese?

Honorable Mention

309 SW Broadway


Honorable Mention, the new bar from Damian Lillard, brings a polished take on the sports bar to the historic Benson Hotel. Tucked into the basement, the space blends luxe lounge energy with the excitement of game day with plush seating, elevated cocktails, and a menu that reworks classic bar fare with a finer touch.

Pipsqueak Bagels

3844 SE Gladstone St.


Pipsqueak Bagels makes the leap from cult-favorite pop-up to brick-and-mortar, bringing its much-hyped East Coast–style bagels to SE Gladstone. Known for selling out at markets and pop-ups, the shop has built a loyal following around hand-rolled, boiled, and baked bagels done the classic way.

Los Bros Taco Shop

17 NW 23rd Pl

Red Hen Bagelry

4641 NE Fremont St.


Red Hen Bagelry brings a true New York–style bagel experience to Portland, with hand-rolled, kettle-boiled, and baked bagels rooted in tradition.
