In love with Lucy's

by pdxjunebug25 at Citysearch

I stopped in at Lucy's Table on a whim because I had read about the happy hour in the Happy Hour guide book, but had made it too late and decided to stay for dinner and was not disappointed and even the I wasn't in my best clothes to be in the dining room of such a cozy establishment, I was welcomed openly by the owner and staff alike. Like most mid-twenty somethings I have a bit of an alternative appearance the owner smiled and it was their pleasure to have my friend and I there. Boy were we in a for a treat, the goat cheese ravioli and tomato and butter leaf lettuce salad were our starters and they were outstanding. Then we had the steak and the ribs (which were out of this world, meat so tender it fell off the bone), to cap off our evening we had a french toast bread pudding with bacon ice cream (I had to be talked into that one but I misjudged and was taken by extreme surprise). The owner and server were amazing the entire time, helping pair wines through our courses and making us feel like family. We will be coming back, again and again.

• Pros: Staff, atmosphere, FOOD, wine
• Cons: parking (valet available)

I have been coming to Lucy's table now for 3 years. The food is always amazing, the service is great and they have a social hour from 5:00 - 6:30 where you can get the bar food menu items at half price! in addition to great wine and coctails at an additional discount.

I am 25 years old and Lucy's Table is truely my favorite place to dine in portland all my friends would say the same. You won't be disapointed!!!

• Pros: Amazing food and wine at very reasonable prices
• Cons: Not open on Sunday

Not impressed

by monicam2003 at Citysearch

A close friend and myself tried this restaurant recently. It was disappointing. The ambiance of the restaurant appears pretentious and uptight. We made reservations but really didn't need to. There were only a handful of tables being used. The new trainee waitress was polite, professional, and quick to respond to our requests. The only food that is worth mentioning is the goat cheese ravioli which was really well made, very delcious. The rest of the food we ordered was trying too hard and missing the mark (not much flavor). It appears the owners are attempting to have this upscale, classy restaurant but forgot that people actually want to feel comfortable and satisfied when eating anywhere. Will not be returning any time soon.

• Pros: Goat cheese ravioli, valet parking, good wine selection
• Cons: Uptight crowd, mediocre food for expensive prices
