About this business
This Pearl District restaurant has earned a stellar reputation. The quaint atmosphere speaks of warm Italian family dinners, with a sprinkling of elegant, upscale whimsy. Start with your beverage of choice from the full bar or order a bottle of classic wine. Try to narrow down your choice from the smattering of appetizers. The menu is also replete with fresh, hearty pastas. Plenty of meat and vegetarians dishes are also available. Round out your meal with a specialty dessert.

Hearty, harmonious flavors in a relaxed atmosphere – Having heard that the chef at Giorgio?s was a veteran of Per Se in NYC, we knew we had to give it a shot. Given this info, our expectations were understandably high, and yet, the meal managed to exceed these expectations. We were greeted immediately, seated promptly, and found the service very attentive without crossing the line into invasive (request Zach). We started with a sunburst squash salad (the only wouldn't-necessarily-order-it-again item we tasted) and the carame... read more
DO NOT RECOMMEND – My husband and I went to Giorgio's last week and we were very unimpressed. The restaurant was not that busy but we had to wait forever for our food. A group of 3 and another person came in after us and received their food before us and had left before our food came. No explanation as to why, no apologies, and my meal tasted like it had been sitting around for awhile. We had both basically finished our glasses of wine before our meals came and no offer was made to get a second glass. Also, the salad adverti... read more
Refined Italian dining and a romantic bistro setting attracts Pearl District diners. – In Short Small tables, rich wood floors, golden brocade and leather banquettes are mixed with vintage posters, striking a balance between a classy, timeless ambience and contemporary style. The simple, elegant ambience draws a serious crowd of epicureans and upscale couples. Entrees include lamb with arugula, roasted cardoncello mushrooms and young fennel, seared to highlight the freshness of the meat. Closers include the ever-changing men... read more
Fresh Italian – If you like McDonald's, don't go here. If you like artificial flavors, don't go here. If, however, you like fresh flavors, handmade pasta, and good service, GO HERE. I agree with other reviews: if you don't like good food you will not like Giorgio's. You know who you are. I was almost scared away by the negative reviews - don't be. Follow your instincts straight to NW 10th and Hoyt. My husband and I are both vegetarians and found 2 entrees and numerous starters from which to choose. Handmade gnocchi was fabul... read more
Best business lunch in town – Giorgio's food is fantastic. Period. This is by far the best place to bring clients for an upscale (very expensive) lunch. Start to finish, every little morsel is perfect. Now where is everyone? I hope they don't discontinue their lunch service because it always seems to be slow. Keep up the good work!!!
Great food outside in the shade. – This place was a haven while searching for a precious outdoor table in the Pearl without being singed in the afternoon sun. The waitress, Micheala, was very nice and the food was awesome. Interesting cocktails made this charming restaurant feel like our own private, sidewalk lounge. The hen was yummy and the tables outside were nice and shady.
Fantastic! A great restaurant for foodies (but not for everyone) – I live in Seattle but have been to Giorgio's approximately 10 times when in Portland on vacation and business. The combination of phenomenal food, friendly atmosphere, elegance, and intimate size make it a more enjoyable combination than any restaurant in Seattle. Each of my visits has been a great experience -- from the first time 18 months ago when my wife & I ate with snow falling under the street lights outside our table by a window, to the latest visit a... read more
WONDERFUL ITALIAN EXPERIENCE – Giorgios is an intimate Italian restaurant. The food and wine are authentic. This is one of our favorite spots for a romantic dinner or impressing out-of-towners. The food is very well priced for both quality and quantity. The wine list is impressive with many wonderful options but is a little pricier. Excellent service and attention to detail.
Insanely, mouth-wateringly delicious – I have heard/read many great reviews about this place and the new chief who was trained under Thomas Keller. We went for Valentine's Day. It was fabulous! Excellent service. Incredible flavor. Knowledgable staff. Cute little bar to have a quick martini before dinner. I am already planning my next visit so we can taste more plates. The wild boar pappardelle is to DIE FOR. I wanted to pick my plate up and lick it and my friend's as well. Perfectly cooked pasta and meat sauce. aaahhhh....y... read more
