Our favorite restaurant in walking distance, Eem is a phenomenal convergence of Thai + Southern BBQ. Fun cocktails and a great scene. Waits can be long - plan to get your name on the list early and then venture out to explore N. Williams.

Still relatively new, Great Notion introduced Portland to the "hazy IPA" craze that originated in New England. Great Notion still does them the best! Also great fruit beers, sours, and breakfast stouts. They have an awesome back patio space too.
