Portland


Sister restaurant to chef Vitaly Paley's Imperial, this New York–style pizza joint inside Hotel Lucia is both a perfect lunch spot and a killer cocktail bar. Options include the signature Imperial pie, with fried chicken, pickles and ranch dressing, plus snacks, salads and slices. Large groups can go all-out with the 36in-long Al Metro, aka 'big-ass pizza' ($48).
