I think I just had too many dietary restrictions and it overwhelmed our server. (I am gluten-free and dairy-free with a sunflower allergy). I was disappointed and did not feel comfortable enough to order dessert.

Tonight I ate at Lechon, a restaurant on Naito Pkwy in Portland. A number of items were (gf), but found it interesting why the octopus was not. When the server delivered the ceviche I asked "Why isn't the octopus gluten free?" His reply "It's prepared on a shared grill with other non gf food." Very good answer!!! Great vibe, good people, and delicious food!!

Gf items are marked on menu, I had the pan seared scallops and foraged mushrooms- farm egg, aged parmesan toasted brioche, caramelized onion puree, herbs. They substituted a bun top for the brioche, very good. I’ve gone here multiple times and love the cocktails and knowledge by the staff on gluten-free needs.

Amazing South American food. I got the Peruvian chicken bites and fried brussel sprouts / amazing! They also had a fantastic gluten free dulce de leche tart. The safest items are the ones made in the gluten free fryer as they’re prepped in a separate space according to the server.

Food is eh, service is pretty bad. It's good for a casual drink since it seems to never be crowded and is close to the waterfront.
