Lovely!! Jim at the bar is great at making drinks and so friendly. I was there by myself and heade me feel very welcome! Also gave me a sample of the chocolate/salted caramel and it was delicious.

I got an espresso martini and adored it!

Had an Espresso Martini....absolutely delcious!! Highly recommend.
Also tried there peanut butter and chocolate Martini.....totally to die for if you like Reese' type taste. Highly recommend!
Beware they are a little hard to find. No access to direct road ways. Parking was hard to locate. But well worth the visit!

We stopped here for a dessert cocktail after dinner and they were delicious! I always love the chocolate salted caramel martini and my boyfriend got the peppermint one. It was very busy but they quickly got us seated at the bar and the bartender was very attentive.

Great bar. Kinda tricky to find if you aren't paying attention.
The desserts were great. The martini was amazing.

We love sitting at the bar and chatting with locals and tourist while sipping a variety of martinis. You feel at ease here. Both times I’ve visited here, the bartender (Jim?) has made some concoction not on the menu for us to sample which, so far, has been delicious.

I always make sure I visit this bar. I have never had a bad drink. The wait staff are so friendly and accommodating. The owner, Jim is an absolute sweetheart ❤️

We’ve been here and the cake is great. Great locations. But rather unfriendly encounter today. Informed that they don’t do take out and if you have left overs you can’t take the dessert with you. I understand but be nice in your communication. Very rude. Curt. Won’t be back.

Get place to hangout and get a nice drink! My sister and I went for some martinis, we got the key lime pie and mocha sea salt caramel! They were amazing! Prices are reasonable and the service was great! Our waiter Dave did an awesome job helping us pick out drinks, making us laugh and had great customer service skills! Will definitely go here again!

One of my favorite spots in Portland. We have been coming here for 4+ years.
The German chocolate cake martini is absolutely amazing, the crème brûlée is even better. Absolutely love sitting by the fires when it’s an option. Drinks are sweet and heavy, but worth every sip

I loooove the idea of a dessert bar. However, I was expecting something a little more upscale, and was surprised at how loud/packed the restaurant was. We also felt like they may have been low staffed, but the people working were great! Our mocha martinis were VERY good and strong. We also got a chocolate torte to go, it was absolutely delicious.

This is THE place to go in Portland if you are craving something sweet, particularly in the boozy variety! The only problem is narrowing down what you want to try. There is a full bar with plenty of sweet specialty drinks, as well as your standard desserts. There is a very chic indoor eating area as well as a back patio with fire pits for colder weather. I wish we had found this place before our last day there. It is also located in a perfect location and is convenient to many great sights, shopping, and restaurants.
