A true Five-Star Dining Experience
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

05/13/2008 Posted by proteus47

I was looking for something a little chic but not pretentious in Portland, and found this gem. Traveling past the smokey, wood-grain, over-decorated pubs and eateries to find this ultra-modern, super clean minimalist-menu amazing restaurant. From the way the place represents itself I had high expectations, and they were absolutely met. I had the grilled salmon, and sampled the green curry and ribs-everything was flawless. The cocktails weren't weak, either. My appetizer, the Hamachi and Avocado, was simply the freshest Hamachi I've had in the northwest. Second to none. I can officially say that the Saucebox is my favorite restaurant in the northwest.

Pros: A true five-star resturant, presentation, taste, ambience, and service were absolutely top-notch.

Cons: Those expecting large, american portions may be disapointed.
