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)

We finally made it to dinner here and were rewarded with a terrific experience. Our waitress, Stacy, was fantastic and really added to the pleasure my wife and I experienced dining at Lucy's Table. The atmosphere, decor, food and service all exceeded our expectations. We can't stop sharing all of the positives with our friends. We will definitely come back for more!

• Pros: goat cheese ravioli was incredible
• Cons: cannot think of any

Best restaurant in town!

by jessejacob at Citysearch

When folks visit from out of town, we take them to Lucy's Table. When we want to have a romantic night out, we head to Lucy's Table. When friends want to meet up for a fun and tasty happy hour, we meet at Lucy's Table. This Portland gem has it all. A superior menu and a friendly and knowledgeable staff. It doesn't matter that Lucy's Table is all the way across town, I would drive almost anywhere to eat at what has easily become my favorite dining spot in town.

• Pros: The menu!!! The staff!!!
• Cons: parking

Outstanding Restaurant

by jvigue at Citysearch

Went here for our 25th anniversary with 3 other couples. Everyone had something different and everyone enjoyed their dish. I has the wild boar ravioli and it was delicious but my friend had the rib-eye and it was amazing! Service was excellent. I recommend ordering the Ghost Pines red wine with your dinner. It has become a favorite of our. We are going back tonight for Valentine's dinner and I am ordering the rib-eye. The pommegranite baby back ribs are also amazing!

• Pros: Food, service, wine list
• Cons: small

Wonderful experience!

by Tatertort at Citysearch

Great place! Food is fabulous, service is outstanding, and the atmosphere perfect. Only minor complaint is that the small plates were just a bit larger than we had anticipated, but that's a very minor complaint indeed. Wait staff was superb - knew the wine list and recommendations were spot on. Wine flights would be great and chefs recommended special would complete what is already a near perfect menu. Would we repeat? No question that we will!

Amazing food and impeccable service

by Owen06 at Citysearch

Our group of 4 had a great assortment of food- we tried the roasted romaine heart salad, beet salad, mescaline greens and the goat cheese ravioli. All dishes included fresh and local ingredients. They were all top rate- the ravioli's would be our top recommendation. We tried the risotto, ribs, rib-eye and the boar ravioli. Again- all excellent. The service was appropriately paced, the noise level perfect for a conversation. We are conisseurs of fine food and are from the San Francisco area. This food and service was by far the most excellent we've had in Portland and up in the top 3 of our favorite restaurants (including SF). $4 valet parking made it convenient and simple.

• Pros: Wine list, valet parking, great food
• Cons: chairs a bit uncomfortable (but the pro was that we were able to sit for so long and enjoy!)

Great Service, Great Atmosphere, and Great Food

by kitrimae at Citysearch

My fiance and I recently visited Lucy's Table to enjoy my birthday dinner. Having been there before and always enjoyed great service and even better food, we were excited to visit again - and we were not disappointed. Their wine list was varied but provided an excellent selection of mid-range, local wines. Our server was friendly, knowledgable and attentive (without being TOO attentive). We enjoyed several courses and the pace of the meal was perfect. We shared the goat cheese ravioli and house marinated olives as our appetizers (be sure not to leave Lucy's without trying those raviolis!). My date very much enjoyed his pomegranate glazed baby back ribs and I was delightfully surprised by the new and unique flavors in the chicken breast dish that I, well, devoured. Dessert was white chocolate bread pudding - with and candle, of course! The whole experience added up to a great evening. Visitors to NW 21st should not miss Lucy's Table!

• Pros: Ambience, Service, Unique Dishes
• Cons: Parking

Great food, atmosphere and service

by TimHodgson at Citysearch

My wife and I have been looking for an intimate restaurant with exceptional food and great service. We found just that. We ate early on Saturday evening and enjoyed it all. The restaurant was 3/4 full when we left at 7:30. This is the first(best) time we have had a quiet conversation eating out. The staff was attentive and not intrusive. We will keep you informed if we find a better place...don't hold your breath.
