【閉店】Lincoln Restaurant

Lincoln would probably get 5 stars from a lot of people. I wish I could have given 4.5. The food was very tasty. The service was excellent. My wife had the worst looking dish of our group but it was really tasty. For this price range and this type of food, it was pretty standard. Granted, the standard is high. The prices were reasonable for what we got. They have a good selection of wine and the prices for the wine were relatively good as well. I don't see a world where someone would go to this restaurant and leave unhappy. I would surely recommend it to anyone.

If you haven't been to Lincoln, then you've really missed one of PDX's gems. From the welcoming, down-to-earth atmosphere walking in the door to the physical setting to the exquisite food, everything about Lincoln is just right. The flavors of all the foods, whether it's one of their risottos, the hanger steak or one of their rabbit dishes, are melodious to the palate. Make time for Lincoln, and you won't be disappointed.

I love the ambience at Lincoln. The architectural, yet warm look, is very attractive. Service was attentive, but not overbearing. My dining partner and I shared the salad with crispy sweetbreads, but found it lackluster. It was really too small to share, and the sweetbreads weren't all that crispy. However, the dressing was great. For my entree, I ordered something I haven't eaten in years, namely rabbit. It was the the server's recommendation and it was delicious. And one more thing...the martini was perfect. We had tried the martinis on previous occasions and found them to be kind of sad (served in a large martini glass filled 1/3, overly diluted). This time it was done right.

I've been looking forward to trying this restaurant for a while considering all of the good press it receives. Overall, I'd say it was good, but it didn't blow me away.

We arrived a little early, but they were able to seat us right away, the food was delicious and the service was fantastic.

We chose this resturant for our one year anniversary celibration because neither of us had been. We were very pleased with the experience . We would definatly recomend Lincoln for a couple or even a small group. The food was delicious, especially the octopus. The half chicken was off the hook as an entre I had the Panna Cotta for desert. The ambiance was perfect. Very creative. I'm impressed.
