The Original - Restaurant Review
The Original is an electrifying “dinerant” (a cross between the fancy atmosphere of a restaurant but at the affordable prices of a diner) that slides into current trends with ease. Inside patrons will find a warm atmosphere with pop culture posters across the walls mixed with modern architecture and furniture. The key to the Original's success is the social atmosphere. Gather around with friends and family while enjoying an American menu of savory burgers and desserts. In order to keep up with the information age, The Original hosts their entire menu and prices online, in style as well!

Giorgio's
Address: 1131 NW Hoyt St., Portland, OR 97209 (Map)
Giorgio’s is a restaurant that continues to be truly authentic to Northern Italian cuisine. Owner/Chef Giorgio Kawas initially learned to love cooking at an early age from his mother in Italy. Gaining interest as he got older, Chef Kawas studied cooking in Northern Italy before opening Giorgio’s. The restaurant’s carefully selected menu items include home-made pastas, seafood and vegetarian options, and an impressive seventy-five bottle wine program with options from Italy, France and Oregon. The atmosphere is sophisticated and comfortable, and although the options may be extensive, Giorgio makes a great effort to focus on providing simple, lingering satisfaction.

Silk
Address: 1012 NW Glisan St., Portland, OR 97209 (Map)
