Why they're an Icon
Executive chef: Bryan Donaldson; Chef/Owner Cathy Whims
From the OpenTable editors: Open since 2005, multi-James Beard Award-nominated chef Cathy Whims’s flagship restaurant still turns out some of the city’s best Italian food. Feast on wood-fired thin-crust pizzas and a 2.5-pound Florentine-style bone-in ribeye, plus seasonal pastas and mains in a lodge-like space with soaring vaulted ceilings and festive hanging lanterns. Toast the meal with a celebratory cocktail—Thrillist dubbed Nostrana “Portland’s capital of the negroni.”
