Best Restaurants for Groups in North Portland

This place has always been a favorite, but last night’s dinner was extra perfect. We came in as a group of 9 to share an intimate wedding dinner and the restaurant went out of their way to make everything perfect for us. The area we were seated in was adorable and very quiet - even when the restaurant was packed we felt like the only ones there. Excellent food, delicious drinks, great service. Can’t recommend IST enough for a celebration!

Everyone was phenomenal at this restaurant our waiter was absolutely fantastic. The food all I can say is fantastic. We will be returning to this restaurant soon. Thank you Bruce and Tami

Our party had the "Rice Plate ", which was a variety of dishes served family style. It was a fantastic way to try numerous dishes including ones we wouldn't normally order. Service was great. We had several different people service our table but it was seamless . Delicious food ! They served had several sauces with different levels of spice you could add to your food. None of the food was spicy on its own. Flavorful though!!

The staff were wonderful and while everything was busy due to Christmas Eve groups they worked hard to take care of patrons. Much cooperative work and very positive attitudes added to their outstanding work.

Always an amazing experience at Janken. The server knew her stuff and helped us order the adequate amount for our party of six. The drinks were delicious. The place was packed and we all could easily hear each other. This is a must go to place in Portland.
