There’s so much to love about Northwest 23rd in Portland, Oregon, that I had to come back with another post on it. Above you see the Clams Nantua, with caramelized fennel, tomato, garlic, shallot, capers, shellfish nage, cognac, and cream. You can find this unforgettable dish on the bar menu of St. Jack. They have an excellent happy hour 7 days a week 4-6 pm and 10 pm to close.
The Fireside is another fun restaurant right on the same street. They have a really cool sign outside that is quite photogenic if you want to take a picture beneath it. They have great happy hour specials Monday – Friday 3-5:30.
Above is a picture from Salt and Straw. There is a location on NW23rd, although my picture came from SE Division, which is closer to me.
The scratch made waffle cones smell so good when you walk in! But I’m not aware if they have a happy hour?
Three more places that I really enjoy that are located on NW 23rd are Blue Star Donuts, Grassa, & Jo Bar & Rotisserie.
